War, Inc. writers John Cusack, Jeremy Pikser and Mark Leyner were interviewed by Los Angeles Confidential Magazine. Hilary Duff was also interviewed separately.
The three writers had some good things to say about Hilary:
JC: You know, when she came out to do the film, we didn’t know her. We knew she wanted to do the movie, which takes a lot of courage for a young girl who’s already got a huge fan base, who’s a big pop star. I don’t think any of us knew she’d be quite as gifted, as intelligent as she is. If you think about it, if you want to hold the screen with Sir Ben Kingsley, Marisa Tomei, and Joan Cusack, you’d better be good. And not only did she hold her own, I think she’s every bit as charismatic and wonderful as those other three actors.
ML: Also, she’s fearless.
JP: And physically fearless! She put a real scorpion down her pants! And Johnny, you gotta say that next time you’re on a talk show with a clip.
ML: It’s amazing.
