Anna Kendrick joins the show to talk about her directorial debut, Woman of the Hour. The film is a tense thriller based on the true story of a woman (Anna Kendrick) who reluctantly makes an appearance on the popular 1970s show The Dating Game, and chooses a bachelor (Daniel Zovatto) who turns out to be a prolific serial killer.

Kendrick explains how she ended up pitching herself as the film's director, speaks candidly about what it was like to be on the other side of the casting process, and describes how she found her voice on set.

She also reflects on her days traveling from Portland, Maine to New York City with her brother to attend auditions as a kid, discusses how her early experiences working on a wide range of sets informed her perception of fame, and contemplates taking on more musical roles in the future.
