in it, she plays a hotel executive scouting the Philippines for a new resort location, but instead finds romance with a charming local pilot (fellow Star Wars veteran Alden Ehrenreich). The film also stars Tia Carrere (Lilo and Stitch), Sam Neill (Jurassic Park), Vondie Curtis-Hall (Daredevil), and Beck Bennett (Superman). The Last Resort is slated to be released early next year.

“I really wanted to do a rom-com, and I did a rom-com this year. That was great. I really wanna do a musical. That’s my one, and I have read an incredible, incredible original musical which is beautiful and wonderful.”
