2:24Garner says thick, tinted contact lenses were harder to act in than prosthetics.
5:10She objects to trailers revealing entire plots and misses classic trailer narration.
8:50Ozark's writing, direction and cast helped create the collaborative "flow state" named in the title.
12:00Garner recalls Aviva's prosthetic-leg scene from The Real Housewives of New York City.
21:35Asked why attempting things you might fail at matters, Garner says it teaches appreciation.

Julia Garner has a complaint ready before the hottest wings arrive: movie trailers are telling her too much. She misses the older style of narration and would rather discover a film's plot by actually watching it.

"I hate movie trailers because they give the whole movie away," she tells Sean Evans on Hot Ones. It's one of the clearest answers in a conversation that moves between acting technique, reality-TV memories and requests for relief from the sauce.

The episode's promised "flow state" comes through in her account of making Ozark. Garner credits the writing, direction and cast with creating a collaborative experience that felt like family. "A flow state is contagious, almost like awkward energy," she says. The less romantic side of acting gets an airing, too: thick, tinted contact lenses were harder to work with than prosthetics.

The interview has drawn nearly a million views, while its first-day comments were more than twice as busy as usual. Among the chatter, viewers pick out the difference between Garner's speaking voice and her Ozark accent, and echo her frustration with spoiler-heavy trailers.

Then Da' Bomb interrupts the conversation. Vanilla ice cream arrives, and Garner has a question of her own for Evans: "What is wrong with you, sir?!" Her next screen appointment is less sauce-dependent: she plays Caroline Ellison in Netflix's The Altruists, premiering November 19.

SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT!!! Movie trailers give the entire movie away. They legitimately show you the most important scenes most of the time.
