From co-directors Harry Cripps and Clare Knight, the Netflix animated movie Back to the Outback follows a poisonous snake named Maddie (voiced by Isla Fisher), a Thorny Devil lizard named Zoe (voiced by Miranda Tapsell), a hairy spider named Frank (voiced by Guy Pearce), and a scorpion named Nigel (voiced by Angus Imrie), who are tired of their reputation as lethal monsters and decide to leave their home at the zoo to find their real families in the Australian outback. But when they realize they’re stuck with their nemesis, a celebrity koala called Pretty Boy (voiced by Tim Minchin), what they thought would be a road trip turns into a journey of self-discovery, as they learn to find their inner beauty.

During this 1-on-1 interview with Collider, which you can both watch and read, Fisher talked about the appeal of this story of unlikely heroes, what makes this film a love letter to Australia, what she thought of her character, how terrifying it was to sing, how she experienced her own self-doubt growing up, and why she’s personally not good with spiders. She also talked about her upcoming TV series Wolf Like Me and the fun of getting to work with Josh Gad.
