Anna was recently interviewed by Parade magazine to promote Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs (in theatres now!). Check out some of the answers below, and read the complete interview at Parade.com!

The good and the bad of reliving childhood memories.
“It was a book that I loved as a kid, so I couldn’t wait to be a part of it. I thought it was going to be easy, but it’s so much harder than I thought. You’re on your feet for hours in front of a microphone and you’re giving a full performance. The producers sort of sell you on it going, ‘This is going to be fun. No hair. No makeup. You just pop in. You record your voice. You act out a funny animated character.’ Believe me, it’s still a challenge.”

Adjusting to G-rated jokes.
“I love offensive humor, and I’m really proud to be a part of that stuff, especially as a woman. In comedy you’re always trying to walk the line between being funny and also pleasing your audience. I’m very comfortable being raunchy and outrageous, but Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs is great as well even if it’s kinder and gentler. It’s nice that my parents can finally see one of my movies without blushing.”
