Sometimes, a song takes us back in time to when we first heard it.
It’s like we’re reliving the moment in perfect detail.
It’s a love story that could compete withthe best Hallmark movies, but it’s far from cheesy.
Unfortunately, time travel isn’t an exact science.
As she works her way through the playlist, she has fewer opportunities to make things right.
And she’s messing with other people’s lives while attempting to save her own.
The actress also gives us a peek at the musicians that would end up on her mixtape.
Spoiler alert: She’s featuring the likes of Japanese Breakfast, who landed on the movie’s soundtrack.
I thought the concept was so unique.
What was your biggest takeaway from working on the project?
The message is pretty clear.
It was to enjoy every moment you have with the people that you love.
Not to sound bleak, but you never know when that’s not going to happen anymore.
It was frustrating though, ‘cause I was like, “Listen to Danny Glover.”
Nobody else gets to do this, so enjoy it.
Don’t venture to fix things and then screw up Chloe’s love life while doing that.
How do you avoid that when you have that opportunity?
I would probably be messing with that tape recorder for sure.
We learn after sometimes.
What songs would be on your mixtape if you were in this situation?
Definitely [songs by] Japanese Breakfast.
[I’m a] huge fan.
They’re amazing, and they’re in the film.
I read the script, and I [enjoy] love stories.
It’s honestly such an interesting concept.
As I was watching last night, I was blown away by how the idea evolved.
It’s so fun.
It is really fun.
It’s so cute.
It’s different from what you’ve done before, in a way.
How would you say a project like “Press Play” differs from “Runaways?”
That’s definitely one of the other reasons why I said yes to this project.
It was after shooting the last season of Marvel’s “Runaways.”
That really excited me.
You got to be the light in this moment.
I got to be Karolina Dean, which is the light in our show in “Runaways.”
I got to smile more.
Smiling a lot more is always welcome.
I saw that it looks like you’re reprising the role of Nico Minoru for a video game.
I don’t think I’m allowed to talk about it, but I’ve heard the rumors.
It sounds really cool and fun if I were to reprise the role for a video game.
It’s a good idea.
You’re going to have to [wait to] know when it comes out, guys.
There’s so many beautiful memories.
We were in the same hotel, Clara and I.
We would hang in the pool.
Is it called the infinity pool?
It looks like it’s going … That was crazy, and we’re in Hawaii.
I know that the movie premieres very soon.
How are you feeling about that?
Now, I live in West Chester, Pennsylvania and things are so different.
Meanwhile, this film is coming out.
It is pretty here [in Pennsylvania].
I’m in Ohio, so it’s more similar than Hawaii, at least.
I was just in Ohio this past weekend.
I was in Cincinnati for a wedding.
But it was really cool.
Is there anyone who you’d love to work with if you had a chance in the future?
What would you want to do together?
I’m too old to be her daughter now.
I don’t care.
I want to be around her.
I hope it works out for you.
That would be incredible.
Put it out in the universe, hey.
I’m sending out those vibes right now.
