Halle Bailey Talks Importance of Diversity In Rom-Coms

Halle Bailey is dishing on her new movie You, Me & Tuscany!

The 25-year-old singer and actress stars in the upcoming romantic comedy alongside Regé-Jean Page, and in a new interview to promote the film, she opened up about the importance of diversity in rom-coms with producer Will Packer.

“I think for me it’s essential. This is not a movie for one particular audience. It’s a movie for every audience. And because the leads happen to be Halle Bailey and Regé-Jean Page, that doesn’t mean it’s not for everybody. That’s what’s important. And so the fact that you had these two beautiful brown people in, you know, the Tuscan hillsides in a backdrop you don’t always see people that look like Halle and like Regé in those environments. That’s why I had to do it. That’s why I wanted to do it,” Will said on SiriusXM Sway in the Morning LA Studio Session.
