Gabrielle Union joins the show to talk about her romantic comedy, The Perfect Find. Adapted from Tia Williams' book by the same name, The Perfect Find follows Jenna (Gabrielle Union) — a former fashion editor who is trying to make a career comeback after enduring a very public breakup and career implosion. However, her plan hits a snag when she falls for a charming, much younger coworker (Keith Powers) — who happens to be her boss’s son. As sparks fly, Jenna must decide if she'll risk it all on a secret romance. Union explains how the idea behind the film arose, talks about the process of casting Powers, and discusses why as a producer she prioritizes listening to, learning from, and advocating for her cast and crew. Union also talks about breaking ancestral trauma bonds and leaning into self-love, reflects on the evolution of her parenting strategy, and gives an update on the latest iteration of Bring It On.
