While speaking on the podcast, On With Kara Swisher, Tig noted the above movie and how people really enjoyed her performance and how she looked.
“I go viral for being sexy in this film,” she shared. “And it was so unexpected. My phone’s exploding. I’m not walking around going ‘Oh my God,’ you know, ‘check me out.’ I was so confused. So I called Zack, and I said, ‘I’m hearing it from straight men, gay men, gay women and straight women that they think I’m hot in this movie.’”
This gave the comedian inspiration for a new project, which she says Zack was quick to jump on!
“‘What if we just went for it and everyone’s a hot lesbian?’” she said. “He was like, ‘Oh my God, yes, let’s make that movie.’ And so who knows? It’s a Hollywood project. We’re in the process of putting the script together. Picture this poster: We have the name of the film, and then it says ‘Hot Lesbian Action.’ That’s how I sold him on the Zoom.”
As for what we can expect from this new movie?
“As of now, the the movie is called Deviants, and takes place back in some old-timey days, like some closeted deviants,” Tig revealed.
Tig can currently be heard voicing Big Tig, a bear prisoner, in Zootopia 2, and will be seen reprising her Star Trek role in the upcoming Starfleet Academy series.
