Amy Adams, who has given us memorable roles from a Disney Princess character in "Enchanted" to an innocent nun in "Doubt" to an aggressive girlfriend-barmaid of a boxer in "The Fighter," now portrays a stay-at-home mom who suddenly finds herself transforming into a dog at night. Directed and written by Marielle Heller, "Nightbitch" is based on the 2021 novel by Rachel Yoder. Asked how she transformed after 17 years from a Disney Princess to become a "Nightbitch," Adams jokingly replied, "It feels like a natural progression, doesn't it?" Reflecting on it, the charming and down-to-earth actress said, "There was one of those conversations with myself that I was talking about.
I've just been fortunate to be given a lot of opportunities to dive into different aspects of my character and different aspects of myself. As I've grown and changed and lived life, I've been fortunate to have things present themselves at different times when I could process my personal experience inside of the roles that I'm taking and dive into some of these transitional periods of my life. So, I've been fortunate to get to have that experience.

You are also the producer in this movie. Why is this a pas.
