Lake Bell can be annoying when she’s watching TV or a movie with her husband. That’s because she tends to watch with a director’s eye.
“My husband gets very frustrated,” she said in a recent interview. “We sit down to watch a movie and I’m like, ‘I can’t. This piece of casting is really taking me out of the movie.’ He’ll be like, ‘Lake, what’s taking me out of the movie is you talking.’ I’ll be like, ‘I’m sorry, I’m sorry’ and a minute later I’ll be like, ‘Why would you light like that?'”
Bell, 36, is a busy actress with roles in the upcoming Netflix revival of “Wet Hot American Summer” and Adult Swim’s off-kilter comedy “Childrens Hospital” (airing Fridays at midnight). She’s now filming the crime thriller movie “Shot Caller” with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Jon Bernthal.
