Kristen Bell @ "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" Premiere

"It was never anyone's intention to make her a bitch. The reason I was attracted to this project was because Jason really did give the 'villains' a chance to explain themselves, as opposed to a romantic comedy where you're told who to root for and who to dislike."

The film, which Bell auditioned for, turned out to have moments that resonated with her. For example, there's a scene in which Sarah freaks out because her series has been canceled.

"The funny thing was, 'Veronica Mars' was canceled two weeks prior to shooting that scene," Bell says. "So that was probably the closest-to-home scene in the movie. I was definitely coming from a place of being saddened about 'Veronica Mars' and a truthful place of 'What is my next job going to be?'" Source
