Heather first floored us as Corey Haim’s object of desire in the 1988 teen comedy License to Drive. (More like License to Drive Us Wild, right? Right?!) More than two decades and many memorable films later, from Swingers to Boogie Nights to Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, she hit Vegas to play Jade, a stripper/call girl/clue in the mystery of Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, and Zach Galifianakis’ mind-bending weekend. The Wolfpack has once again reunited and find themselves in another serious bind in The Hangover Part III. We caught up with Heather to chat about revisiting Jade, her co-stars, and a very special pair of skates.
So how did you find out you would be reprising the role of Jade?
[Director-writer-producer] Todd Phillips sent me an e-mail! It was really fun to see everyone again; it felt a little like a reunion. Everything’s different in a way, because the movies they’ve done since the first Hangover have all been so successful, but everything’s also exactly the same.
Does the Wolfpack get in touch for Hangover-style benders now and then?
I never drink, so I doubt that they would be calling me if they were. I’m so tame.
Moving on. Hangover plots are among Hollywood’s best-kept secrets. What’s it like to know what everyone wants to?
They wouldn’t let me read the script at first, and when they did it was top secret! They have me so paranoid about saying anything; it’s like being
in the CIA or something.
