Renée Zellweger sat down with Ellen to talk what it was like getting into character to play Judy Garland in the new movie, "Judy."
During the interview, Zellweger admitted to getting real stage fright, and how it was good that she was able to capture a real representation of Judy's fatigue by using prosthetic makeup.
Watch the interview below!
JUDY takes place in Winter 1968 and showbiz legend Judy Garland arrives in Swinging London to perform a five-week sold-out run at THE TALK of the Town. It is 30 years since she shot to global stardom in The Wizard of Oz, but if her voice has weakened, its dramatic intensity has only grown. As she prepares for the show, battles with management, charms musicians and reminisces with friends and adoring fans, her wit and warmth shine through. Even her dreams of love seem undimmed as she embarks on a whirlwind romance with Mickey Deans, her soon-to-be fifth husband. Featuring some of her best-known songs, the film celebrates the voice, the capacity for love, and the sheer pizzazz of "the world's greatest entertainer."
Directed by Rupert Goold, JUDY also stars Jessie Buckley, Finn Wittrock, Rufus Sewell, and Michael Gambon.
Roadside Attractions and LD Entertainment will release JUDY in theaters September 27, 2019.
