If you don’t already know the name Diablo Cody, you’re about to. The sassy-mouthed screenwriter of this week’s Juno packs tons of pop culture savvy and nerdy-hipster cool into her tale of teenage pregnancy, which opens today in select cities. Luckily, we’ve snagged an exclusive video of Cody and actress Ellen Page riffing on the very subject at hand: pregnancy!
Check out the video here for some of the film’s funniest scenes (“I am a sacred vessel; all you have in your stomach is Taco Bell.”) and to hear the banter between real-life pals Cody and Page.
Directed by Jason Reitman, Juno made waves on the festival circuit as the Napoleon Dynamite/Little Miss Sunshine of 2007 — a small ensemble comedy as sparky as it is sweet, about a fifteen-year-old girl named Juno (Page) who accidentally gets knocked up by her best friend (Michael Cera). With a stellar supporting cast (Allison Janney, J.K. Simmons, Jason Bateman, Olivia Thirlby and Jennifer Garner), Juno is already Certified Fresh at 89 percent on the Tomatometer and is out today in limited release.
