LOS ANGELES, Aug. 6 (UPI) -- Tony Hale and D'Arcy Carden say their characters in Sketch, in theaters Wednesday, are close to themselves in real life. Hale plays Taylor, a father to two children, with Carden as his sister and the kids' aunt, Liz.
The movie centers on Taylor's daughter, Amber (Bianca Belle), who draws pictures of monsters to deal with her emotions. When the sketches fall into a lake, the monsters come to life.
In a recent Zoom interview with UPI, Hale, 54, and Carden, 45, shared how their characters were similar to their real selves.
"I am kind of a cool aunt," Carden said. "Sorry to brag. I just took my nieces to Disneyland. That's pretty freakin' cool."
Hale, who has played absurd characters like Buster Bluth in Arrested Development and the vice president's personal assistant on Veep, said Taylor felt closer to himself than such roles. Though not a widower like Taylor, Hale is also a parent.
