Rita Ora recalls the advice her co-star Brandy gave her while filming Descendants: The Rise of Red
In a recent interview with EW, British singer and actress Rita Ora shared one piece of advice she received from Brandy, with whom she teamed up on their latest Disney movie, Descendants: The Rise of Red. Ora recalled that while they were filming a famous scene where her character, the Queen of Hearts, takes Brandy's character, Cinderella, as a hostage, she had to act mean.
She shared that she had to say the iconic line, 'Off with her head!' noting, "I was trying to find my version of that." However, the actress found it hard to be mean to her co-star. The Fifty Shades Darker actress mentioned that in "every scene after that," she would apologize to The Front Room movie actress, saying, "I'm so sorry, I don't mean it."
Ora said after that, her co-star advised her to stay in character, as she recalled what she told her, "Brandy's like, 'Can you stop? You are in character, do what you need to do,"' adding that then she would tell her, "But just remember, I love you! and then we'd get back into it. It was great."
