Actress Olivia Thirlby Talks About 'Wackness' and Her Nude Scene

Olivia Thirlby is the female lead in the movie The Wackness, which open s on July 3. She plays opposite co-star Josh Peck, who stopped by the CW11 studio on Thursday and left Thirlby a special video message.
This native New Yorker made her film debut in United 93 (2006) and her TV debut on NBC's Kidnapped. But moviegoers will remember her as Leah in Juno (2007), where she played Juno's (Ellen Page) best friend Leah.
VIDEO AFTER THE JUMP...
The Wackness is set in the not-so-distant past of 1994 New York. It's the era of yesteryear when "the newly-inaugurated mayor, Rudolph Guiliani, is only beginning to implement his anti-fun initiatives against 'crimes' like noisy portable radio, graffiti and public drunkeness. [...] A time of pagers, not cell phones; a time when Tupac and Biggie were alive but Kurt Cobain just died."
Thirlby plays Stephanie, Luke's (Josh Peck) crush and Dr. Squires' step-daughter (Sir Ben Kingsley). Stephanie and Luke's short romance becomes a life lesson and shatters Luke's naivety, which sets him on the path to adulthood.
Be sure to catch Thirlby later this year in Margaret and in 2009's New York, I Love You.
