More press love for Myrna the Monster!

"In merely 14:20 minutes, the film manages to touch sweetly upon inherently human issues through the eyes of a Martian: friendships, matters of the heart, the universal question “Is there anyone out there like me?”

What a crazy day for Myrna! 

Check out these great interviews with Kathleen Hanna and our director Ian Samuels about her experience voicing Myrna, working with Ian, how she thought she was gonna get fired because she was so nervous and thought she was too slow (in reality, we can tell you that Ian was the one nervous and scared that Kathleen would drop out!), how she feels similar to Myrna, how she felt the first time she watched the short after dubbing it and so much more!!!

Kathleen is so amazing.
