The Stars of Netflix's 'Desperados' Have Played a Couple Before!

Nasim Pedrad and Lamorne Morris are starring in the new Netflix movie Desperados and this isn’t the first time that they have worked together!

The two actors actually played a couple on the Fox series New Girl and their characters ended up together in the end. The new movie marks a reunion for the stars, so this is a must-watch for fans of the show.

In Desperados, a panicked young woman (Pedrad) and her two best friends (Anna Camp and Sarah Burns) fly to Mexico to delete a ranting email she sent to her new boyfriend (Robbie Amell). On arrival, they run into her former beau (Morris), who soon gets caught up in their frantic scheme.

“When I found out that Lamorne might be able to do it, it was such a no-brainer. There is truly no one better to work with. I have so much fun with him and I would do anything with him,” Nasim said in an interview with Manny the Movie Guy.

The movie is now streaming on Netflix!

Will Smith Says He Brought His 'Fresh Prince' Persona To New Version of Genie in 'Aladdin'

Will Smith chats with reporters during the press conference for Aladdin in Los Angeles on Sunday afternoon (May 19).

The 50-year-old actor joined Naomi Scott, Mena Massoud, Nasim Pedrad, Navid Negahban, plus production designer Gemma Jackson, composer Alan Menken, and director Guy Ritchie to chat up the movie ahead of the premiere this week.

In a recent interview, Will opened up about how he approached an iconic character like the Genie for the flick, all while trying to honor Robin Williams, who voiced the character in the animated film.

“Robin Williams didn’t leave much room to improve on the Genie. … So I looked at it and the first thing for me was that it was going to be live action. I thought it could be a little different,” he shared.

Will added, “Robin Williams … took his essentially stand-up persona and just infused his stand-up persona into the Genie. … I was like I could just use the extreme version of almost my ‘Fresh Prince’ persona to be able to infuse that into this wild character.”

“I felt I’d be able to capture the nostalgia while at the same time being able to make something new.”

Aladdin hits theaters on Friday, May 24th.

FYI: Naomi is wearing Balmain. Mena is wearing an AllSaints bomber jacket.
