Elizabeth Olsen & Miles Teller Discuss Living In A 'Man-Free' World

I don't understand when we became so useless. I feel jet-lagged, not rested, and I have kinks in my shoulder that have been bothering me for ten days. I wouldn't want to have this brain in a child's body. I think that would be horrible. She got so low. So good to see you both. Congratulations on this film. Because not only is it super cute, but it also breaks your heart when you think about the love of your life potentially not wanting to spend or choosing to spend the rest of their lives with you. Stressful. Right? I was like, I just didn't think that getting to the afterlife would be stressful, but here you are just reminding us that it just never ends, even when you die. Even when you die. But one thing, I was like, wow, you do this so well, is playing young, old people. Like, because obviously you're in younger bodies, but you're old. How did you channel your old souls? Just the fact that Joan and Larry have such a history. So I think that was something that we were conscious of, but we honestly just fell into this really, I don't know, yeah, comfortable banter. And you spend that much time with somebody, it's like you really, there's no bells and whistles. It's just like, you know everything about that person. Saw you doing squats though, and I was still like, geez, even at my age, I'm already. Yeah, I know. And she got so low. She really did. In the film, John's AC, to you, Elizabeth, he describes you as smart, passionate, and decisive. So if you were each other's AC, how would you describe the other? Kind, wholesome, and playful. And Lizzie, I would say. It's mortifying to receive. Yes, elegant, also playful, deep well. It never gets easier, does it? Hearing nice things, I think, from co-stars. And I'm sure it happens a lot to you guys though, when you're doing these junk interviews, like so much. I'm sure it does. If you were going to manifest yourself in the afterlife, what era of your life so far do you think you would be? Because obviously it's the best, the time that you felt the happiest that you manifest yourself in the afterlife. I would like to be some version of the body I'm in, but not at this moment. I feel jet lagged, not rested, and I have kinks in my shoulder that have been bothering me for 10 days. But I do feel very grateful for the people in my life at this age and the relationships I've built. But I would just like to be really rested, and I'd like to feel really healthy and energetic, and my brain firing. I don't think we ever feel rested now for the rest of our lives. I do have moments. I have moments where even I'm exhausted and I think everything's functioning well. Like, you know what I mean? So I feel like there are moments where even in pure exhaustion, it's all working. How about you, Mel? It's very similar to what Lizzie said. Although I do think it would just be really fascinating. I don't have kids yet, but my nieces and nephews, and just seeing life through the eyes of a child. I wouldn't want to have this brain in a child's body. I think that would be horrible. But I think that would just be a glimpse of what that was like, where everything was just new. And you know what? Just before I went in to see this film, I'd seen a reel where someone was going around asking people, could you live in a world without men? Like, asking women, could you live in a world without men? And to the guys, could you live in a world without men? And then I went to this film and I was like, there's a man-free world. That had nothing to do with it. Right? It was nothing to do with the film. It was really weird. The man-free world seems to be very popular. And I don't understand when we became so useless. I don't know if it's that. But I was going to say, could you live in a man... Well, you don't need them. Sounds like they don't serve a purpose. You say that. Yeah. I haven't got a boyfriend. I haven't got a husband. But I have great male friends in my life who add so much value. Yeah. That actually, I don't think I would... Just even in society. Oftentimes doing the jobs that not a lot of people want to do. So you wouldn't want to live in a man-free world, a woman-free world? No. I wouldn't want to... No. We need to coexist. I think any gender is... It doesn't matter. I think it's about the person. That's very true. Yeah. That's very true. I think there are good eggs and bad eggs and the whole spectrum. You don't want to... Yes, you don't want to eliminate an entire sex. No. But it was an option at least for some people. Yeah. Were there any worlds that we didn't get to see? There were quite a few worlds and I'm not sure what really... Our director, if you're ever able to ask him, he had just... He said when he was on the flight from London to Vancouver that he was just journaling. And he had, I mean, so many different ones. Well, some that weren't allowed because they weren't PC enough for the film. Sure, yes. Yeah, he was really trying to push... Because this film's PG-13, right? Yeah, I think so. Oh, is it? Yeah, good. Yeah. Oh, I think so. I'm just agreeing with you. I have absolutely no idea. No idea. I'm old enough to see it too, which is great. Because it is great. Congratulations. Thank you. Lovely to see you guys. Appreciate it. Thank you.
