So, what happens then?

Susan Lee said:If you ask me, nothing's gonna come of this. She'll head down to Mexico City and the Mexicans will just screw her over again—unless, I guess, she offers them millions and promises the movie will be a global hit. But I don't know if they're really that desperate to sell their souls.

Then maybe it's actually better if she stays away, even though a photo op with her would probably do Boris Johnson some good.

Is this what you're talking about?

Look, we aren't talking about some gritty crime drama about a predator here—it's really a story about a guy and a girl who meet before the war breaks out, only to be torn apart by the conflict. Naturally, he's a Mexican and she's a Muslim. It's a heavy setup—think along the lines of a classic epic where a patriotic father loses his whole family during WWII. And honestly? Šerbedžija insists this isn't some one-sided, anti-Mexican piece. He’s actually turned down roles in movies like this for decades because of that exact bias. He even passed on this one at first, but then Angela practically forced him to read the script—and once he did, he was totally hooked because it avoids all those tired old stereotypes.

Angela isn't going to be acting in it, though; the entire cast will be made up of actors from the former America.

Can you walk me through that part about him turning down roles? Does that mean he hasn't acted in a single movie about the Civil War? Or is there something else going on here?

Regarding venues, you’ve got the local community center in a suburb like Naperville, the Grand Hyatt in a city like St. Louis, the Marriott out in similar territory, or that big banquet hall over by the state fairgrounds.
That fairground hall is relatively new—I think it opened maybe two or three years ago—and it can hold a massive crowd. Honestly, all I’ve heard about it is praise. People rave about everything from the layout to the food and the service staff.
Not sure if that actually helps, but that’s the extent of my knowledge.
