Reese Witherspoon's toon praise
Tuesday, 24 March 2009
Reese Witherspoon's friends said she looked good in 'Monsters Vs. Aliens' - despite only voicing an animated character.
The Oscar-winning actress says her pals showered her with praise after seeing the cartoon action film, in which she lends her voice to Susan, who grows to almost 50ft tall after an accident and is transformed into leotard-wearing Ginormica.
She said: "Everyone is like, 'You look so good!' And I'm like, 'That's not me, folks.' My girlfriends watched it and said the same thing. I'll take the compliment."
Reese relished the chance at taking the role as it was the "most action-packed" film she had ever been offered - and she didn't have to work on developing her physique.
She added: "It definitely is the most action-packed movie I've ever been in,. Being animated makes it a lot easier to kick butt. And the best thing is, I didn't have to diet to fit into that cat suit.
"We worked pretty hard on those scenes. Initially, they wanted me to do a voice like a Schwarzenegger/Stallone-type action voice. And I had no idea how to do it. It's not like anybody ever asked me for that before. As for the action-packed stuff, they'd just play out the scene for me, and I'd have to give them grunts and groans and jumping noises."
