Sarah Hyland: Future Roles – Jane Austin, Crazy People
I’m doing a movie called Mother’s Little Helpers. I start filming that in a couple weeks. It’s an indie film and I’m doing it with my friend Ryan Pinkston. It’s very different from Modern Family. I love it because I’m playing someone who is a lot like me, just kind of quirky and awkward. If I get into a situation where I don’t feel really comfortable, I just start talking and talking, and then I say something inappropriate and I’m like, “Oh gosh, I really should stop myself.” It should be a lot of fun, I’m really excited.
I actually just put on my Twitter the other day that I want to be a heroine of one of Jane Austen’s books. It’s already been done by like freaking Gwyneth Paltrow and Keira Knightley, who I think are both amazing, but I just love that time era, and I love Jane Austen’s novels. She’s an amazing writer and I would love to do something like that. I would love to play a really crazy person. I like crazy, Girl Interrupted kind of stuff. I kind of did that already with this Law and Order episode that I did, but like I would really like to go way more into it. I like crazy people. I think they’re really interesting.
