secured her an Oscar nomination. Many fans of the mockumentary will argue she was the best part of the film, and her Oscar nod was well-deserved as many of the film's high stakes moments, including Bakalova's controversial scene with Rudy Giuliani, were unscripted.
Deadline confirms that Bakalova will play a leading role in The Honeymoon. She is ed by actors Pico Alexander (Home Again), Asim Chaudhry (People Just Do Nothing) and Lucas Bravo (Emily in Paris). Bakalova revealed that she signed onto the project because it's an "escapist comedy," which is what she feels audiences need amid the coronavirus pandemic. She looks forward to playing a "strong female character" and teases that the film puts a twist on the typical "buddy comedy" format.
The film is a t effort between the Italian distribution company Notorious Pictures and the UK production company Tempo Production. Bakalova is currently in Italy filming as of this writing. The Honeymoon cast and crew have so far filmed in Rome and Venice. Based on the casts' varied acting backgrounds, the film looks like it's promising to be an entertaining watch.
As per Deadline's description of The Honeymoon, "Englishman Adam and his American bride Sarah are about to embark on the romantic honeymoon of a lifetime in Venice, Italy. But when the newlyweds’ trip is gatecrashed by Adam’s excessively needy best friend, Ed, it inadvertently turns their perfect lovers’ holiday into a complete disaster."
