Interview: Gabourey Sidibe Talks 'Grimsby' and Representation at the Oscars

The 'Precious' star loves being in London.

Sacha Baron Cohen’s new action comedy Grimsby drops this week. The latest comic creator from the former Borat/Ali G is football hooligan Nobby Grimsby, who has to team up with his long lost spy brother (Mark Strong) to save the world. Joining them in the cast is Precious and Empire star Gabourey Sidibe, playing a hotel cleaner who seduces Cohen. We caught up with Sidibe at the film’s London press junket to talk to her about working with Cohen, the difference between London and New York, and why she thinks things will get better for actresses of colour.

Grimsbyis in UK cinemas now.
