Regina Hall

... that Regina Hall (pictured) improvised parts of her role as Brenda Meeks in Scary Movie despite the director initially telling her not to “bother” the character and to follow the script?

Source: BET : "Hall recently revealed in an interview with Vanity Fair that her iconic role of Brenda Meeks in “Scary Movie” was mostly improv ... Hall shared that the film’s director, Keenan Ivory Wayans told her not to “bother” Brenda, basically only do what’s written."
