Jena has carved out a career for herself taking on interesting characters in interesting movies, seamlessly moving between different genres, styles and budgets. Her latest is an indie flick, where she takes on a starring – and producing – role, in Adopting Audrey. To mark the film’s release Stateside, in both theaters and on VOD/Digital, we had the pleasure in speaking to the actress, as she talks about her approach to the character, and taking a more stripped back, minimalist approach than she’s used to.
She also talks producing, she looks back over her career and on what’s to come, as we briefly touch upon Rebel Moon. She can’t say anything about her character, of course, but we do get an insight into the collaboration process with Zack Snyder, a filmmaker she’s worked with before.

Synopsis
Estranged from her family and living a life of solitude, Audrey discovers the world of adult adoption and decides to try it herself in hopes of finding a sense of belonging. She soon meets an adoptive family whose dysfunction mirrors her own, allowing her to form an unlikely bond with the cantankerous patriarch who is seemingly as cold as she is courteous.
Adopting Audrey is released in US theaters and on & VOD/Digital on August 26
