The Interview is an American political action comedy film starring James Franco, Seth Rogen, Lizzy Caplan, Randal Park, Diana Bang, and many more.Diana Bang was auditioned for the role and cast as Sook-yin Park. Sook is a charismatic North Korean propaganda minister and Kim Jong-un’s right-hand lady. In an interview, she said, “Basically, when the two main characters played by Seth and James come to North Korea, I act as their tour guide and let them see only what I want them to see,” She also said that her role was really powerful, intelligent and badass. “Sook is very strong and feisty, and I think I have that in me. That’s very much tied to me being small and short and wanting to put up a fight.”When asked about the most challenging things from her role in an interview, Diana answered, “I’d say the most challenging was trying to speak Korean when I was just given new dialogue right before shooting. I generally need to practice Korean before I can say it properly and with ease, so having to get things translated by random Korean extras and then being able to say it properly soon after was a challenge. I’m sure there is tons of footage of me speaking gibberish rather than Korean.”Before the film was released, it received over $1 million on its opening day. The language of the movie is English and Korean. Unfortunately, the film is not screened in South Korea or North Korea because of the pro and contra.Check out the trailer, and the cast thoughts of Diana Bang here:
