My Spy: The Eternal City: Anna Faris Talks About The "Special Experience" Of Playing Nancy Buck In The Film

In an interview with ComicBook, Anna Faris discussed how her role as the ambitious Nancy Buck in My Spy: The Eternal City was shaped by her childhood experience of working as a school crossing guard.

"I think it's almost like an asexual thirst for power," she said. "I was such a late bloomer. I had a big handsome older brother, who would like, shove my face in the snow. That kind of older brother. I was a really quiet, intense little kid and I needed to feel some sense of control, and that [took form in] being a school crossing guard. Now getting to play Nancy Buck, a high school principal who has her own thirst for power and her own sense of justice, it was awesome."

Because playing Nancy essentially made Anna Faris come full circle, it made her think back on her career's early stages.

She shared the following with Comicbook.com while discussing her childhood and the "special experience" of portraying Principal Nancy Buck in the film:

"There's a handful of roles in my life that I feel really surprised I was cast in and I'm so grateful for them," Faris continued. "I think that there's definitely, in our industry, a division between comedic and dramatic, that mentality. All my early theater work was all dramatic. I had no sense of humor. I certainly could not laugh at myself, and now here I am getting to play Nancy Buck just loving it. It was one of the more special experiences of my life for a multitude of reasons."
