“I’ve never been so proud of a project in my life,” Williams told her audience full of socially-distanced staffers. She then quickly corrected herself, adding: “You know, a side project.”

She continued: “I’ve never been so proud.” She then stood in front of her poster and said: “That’s the real me, you’ll see enough of the actress me in the movie.”

Williams still seemed to be in disbelief that the project was set to air. “Would you look at this!" she gushed. "I’ve got a date and a time and four hours. I want to watch it by myself, so I can stop the TV and back it up. I will learn how to do it by then.”
