Hebron , a driver 20 years her junior. Despite the age gap, the two fall for each other and realize they have more in common than they realize. When I see her name, it holds my interest. What we really think. What we really say to our girlfriends. Garcelle Beauvais: For me, working with Lifetime, we were thinking about what we wanted to do next. We have done The Black Girl Missing franchise and will continue to do them. Do something different. When it comes to getting older, everyone faces it a certain way.
All three of you face it in different ways. Garcelle: For my character, Ava, is a Michelin chef. She is starting to get arthritis and dealing with menopause. I think the message is hopeful. I think that is the message of the movie. You can find love at any time. Lela: What I enjoyed about my character is she sort of represents the really common woman.
At a certain age, she has made choices and finds herself single. Some women have divorced and regret it. Some are happy. My character is divorced and still unsure if that was the right decision.
Donna: The take on menopause is that menopause is not for wimps. You have to be strong to get through it. Donna: Judy is that aunt everybody wants in a family. My own aunt was like that. I think Ava can appreciate that. She loved her for that. I feel like my backstory with our relationship is she always looked up to her aunt, even though she had her aunt at the time.
They had a special bond. You can see it and feel it. It was great. For us, when we were casting this what was important was that Luke had to be young enough that you believed there was a big age gap. He also had to be man enough so you believed he would get a woman like that. I think that is what Vaughn brought to the project. It was believable, we had great chemistry when we had our table read.
