Jennifer Coolidge Reveals Why Bill Murray Was ‘Scary’ and Pete Davidson’s Hilarious Antics

Jennifer Coolidge openly admits that working with Bill Murray for the first time was a “terrifying experience.

Despite Calvin Coolidge not appearing in the current season of “The White Lotus” after Tanya’s demise in Season 2, she is set to reappear in a murder-centric tale titled “Riff Raff,” making this her debut project with veteran actors Ed Harris and Murray. This comes ahead of the premiere of “A Minecraft Movie.

In a dark comedy, the movie revolves around a peculiar family gathering filled with crime, where Coolidge portrays the amusing character Ruth. To her surprise, she runs into her former crook spouse, Vincent, played by Harris.

Out of the entire cast, Coolidge was most surprised by Murray’s turn as the violent Leftie.

Coolidge says to EbMaster, “I’ve never witnessed Bill appearing that gloomy before.” Coolidge finds it fascinating that Bill can portray such a deeply troubled character convincingly. Strangely, it was both terrifying and hilarious, causing me to spoil some takes. Bill is both peculiar and intriguing at the same time, which makes it unusual.

The movie’s cast is packed with seasoned professionals who have spent decades in the film industry, but it also includes newcomers like Pete Davidson, who is steadily expanding his acting portfolio. Coolidge remarks that Davidson was a constant source of laughter on set and shares an unforgettable anecdote about him braving the cold winter weather.

It was bitterly cold, isolated, yet there I stood by the window, watching as a Rolls-Royce made its way up the incline.

After all, he’s always about carving his unique path.
