Regina Hall Reflects On Her Iconic Character from a ‘Scary Movie’
The actress also confirms some news about the long-awaited ‘Girls Trip’ sequel.
Regina Hall has played many iconic characters over the years but no one could have predicted her role as Brenda Meeks in 2001’s Scary Movie would be just as legendary 20 years later. Hall as Brenda Meeks is a favorite in memes and on social media.
“It’s really amazing for someone to even think about your character 20 years later. I look and go, ‘Oh, my God, look how young I was,” Hall said about seeing the memes of her circulate.
“Twenty years later, for people to still have such a connection to Brenda… I loved Brenda and I’m so happy I got to be able to play her. It’s funny to me because you don’t know what’s going to happen when you do a role — two decades later, for Brenda to, honestly, find a new audience. There’s just a whole new young audience that got to discover her so it’s fun for me.”
