That experience can happen.” Ariana proved that she was fit for the role. One of the notable things is that she 'understood the nuance of the character', which actually impressed Jon. “Every time she came in, Ari was the most interesting person. She was funny, she was emotional", he added. “But more than that she understood the nuance of this character in a way that felt so real it wasn’t a performative version of it.” The 45-year-old American screenwriter admitted that he knew, while making the movie, that ‘people are going to see things which they have never seen in Ariana Grande before.’ turned out to a chartbuster of 2024.
