She further claimed, "We talked about the baroness and I told [Ron] how I felt and all these things that I was already imagining. And from day one, there was great communication and back and forth and I was like, 'This might be the end of my career, but it looks like fun, so I'm going to go for it.’”

Amidst the promotions of Eden, the actress also opened up about a change made in her personal life. While talking to E! News, the actress revealed that she has left her home in Los Angeles to settle in rural Vermont.

She said, “I found a home where I really feel off the grid. I can collect myself and only bring there who I want to be with. I have my little cocoon there.”
