Bumblebee: Hailee Steinfeld Interview

Bumblebee: Hailee Steinfeld Interview
What an end to 2018 for Hailee Steinfeld! Not only does she voice Spider-Gwen in the recently released and already beloved Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, but now she also headlines one of the strongest installments of the Transformers film franchise, Bumblebee. The movie takes place in 1987 and Steinfeld steps in as a teenager named Charlie. After suffering a family tragedy, Charlie is having a tough time fitting in and feeling like herself. She cherishes her memories of working on old cars in the garage with her father so she's thrilled to finally get the opportunity to fix up a car of her very own. And it just so happens that that car is a beaten-up yellow VW bug.
Steinfeld is electric from start to finish in Bumblebee but one of the stand-out components of the movie is the chemistry she shares with Bumblebee, an astonishing achievement given how often Steinfeld had to act opposite nothing. With Bumblebee rolling into theaters nationwide on December 21st, I got the opportunity to talk with Steinfeld about being part of two major franchises with dedicated fanbases, the truly incredible time she had making Bumblebee, and more. You can hear about all of that in this video interview.
Bumblebee hits theaters on December 21st.

Thank you Perri for being professional and not asking her dumb questions or playing games like FMK. I still haven't seen the rest of that interview.

She is so adorable and far more interesting as a lead than Shia Lebuef was.
