Having to work in below zero temperatures with that kind of costume is not easy. It was cold in Montreal negative 20s territory. That entire film took place over the course of one weekend out in the snow, and OliviaвЂ™s costume consisted of a very small cocktail dress and pumps. I had previously spoken to her this spring in Montreal on a set visit of a smaller film called вЂњBlackbirdвЂќ where she was co-starring with Eric Bana and Charlie Hunnam.

You could imagine the startled looksвЂ¦ вЂњAaaaaaah!вЂќ The idea of her running naked among those cows as the other interviews were being conducted is pretty funny, and IвЂ™m sure thereвЂ™s plenty of folks out there who wouldnвЂ™t have minded it at all. I was Olivia WildeвЂ™s last interview, and folks are usually pretty punchy by the end of these and she was no exception. Needless to say this was a nice change of pace, and a very relaxed atmosphere prevailed, which is probably why the subject of streaking came up. The ranch sent some cows and some cowboys to hang out back there as set dressing and the result is what you see in this interview. Here, instead of hotel rooms they had set up a row of tents that held all the lights and the equipment, with the back wall open to the field you see behind us. Usually these interviews are held in cramped and hot hotel rooms, and itвЂ™s not always the most pleasant experience for the actors who must sit there and give interview after interview all day long.

The press event was held on a ranch in Montana just outside of Missoula, and those are real cows, thatвЂ™s a real field. To answer a question a few of you had about the Harrison Ford interview yesterday, no, thatвЂ™s not a green screen behind us with stock footage of cows and cowboys playing in the background.
