Dave Franco and Lizzy Caplan couldn't be more excited for their upcoming movie, “Now You See Me 2.” If you saw the first "Now You See Me," then you know that the original team of street magicians, dubbed as the Four Horsemen, included Franco's character Jack Wilder, Henley Reeves (Isla Fisher), Merritt McKinney (Woody Harrelson) and J. Daniel Atlas (Jesse Eisenberg).
The Horsemen were down one member when Fisher didn't return for the second film, but the sequel got a great replacement with Lizzy Caplan's character, Lula.
Latin Times recently chatted with Franco and Caplan at the "Now You See Me 2" red carpet premiere in New York City on Monday, June 6, and both actors were excited for fans to see all their tricks the newest installment in the franchise.
Although Caplan was the new girl on the squad following Fisher's departure, the 33-year-old actress said she had no problems fitting in with fellow Horsemen Franco, Harrelson and Eisenberg.
"It was awesome," she said when asked how it felt to be the new girl on a team full of guys. "They told me after the fact that they were worried about me...new girl coming in. They were all buddies before, but we ended up getting along pretty immediately, and they figured out that I am just as immature and disgusting as they are."
As for Franco, 30, the actor said that Caplan made a great addition to the team.
"Lizzy is fearless. She came in so confident, so comfortable," he gushed. "And I respect that, because if I was the new kid, I would revert into myself. And I would be just very quiet and shy and probably have difficulty taking risks as an actor, but she's amazing. She adds a lot of humor to the movie and just makes it better."
