On the growth of Brewster’s character over the course of the series, she explained in an interview with AskMen.com: “In the first one I’m more of a wallflower and it’s much more of a girlfriend-type role, but in ”I’m more of a woman”, She’s far more tough.
I deal with the repercussions of living in my brother’s world.” The film earned negative reviews upon its premiere, but was a box office success, grossing United States $363 million globally.
