In a recent interview with LOGOonline, Hilary Duff talked about her new movie Brand Hauser... or is it called War Inc? We still don't know for sure what the movie will be called (right now it's Brand Hauser... but that could change), but this is what Hilary had to say about it:
I just did a movie called War, Inc. with John Cusack and Marisa Tomei and Ben Kingsley in Bulgaria. It was pretty crazy, and pretty different from me, the character that I played. It’s this oversexed Middle Eastern pop star who’s under the control of these really dirty sleazy guys who kind of make her be this type of person, and she does it and does it really well. Because she’s learned that’s how she can get what she wants. And it’s also like a safety thing, because it takes place in a made-up country called Turagistan, and John plays this undercover assassin. He looks like he’s producing this big convention there that’s going to brand Turagistan into America. There are bombs going off everywhere, but there’s a Dr. Scholl’s store, and a Gibson Amp & Guitar store going up everywhere. So it’s kind of crazy and it just shows how screwed up it is when we go into these places that aren’t supposed to look like or be America and try and make it that. It’s really funny, but it’s really creative and twisted, too. And it proves a point. I get to play someone totally opposite from who I am, so it’s fun. But the movie also shows that she’s not really that person, and she doesn’t want to be that.
