\u201cRon Howard at Imagine [Entertainment] came to and said, \u2018Would you be interested in telling a story?\u2019\u201d Poehler said on Thursday night during the Creative Coalition Television Humanitarian Awards, where she was honored by Seth Meyers. \u201cWe started talking about Lucy, who I grew up with and, of course, I\u2019m a fan of her comedy.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I\u2019m also very inspired by her story and what kind of woman she was in business, and what kind of culture she was in when she was making the show, and the relationship between her and her husband Desi Arnaz, and how interesting and complicated and loving it was,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n
She\u2019s already begun researching the \u201cI Love Lucy\u201d icons. \u201cI was just watching a bunch of her physical stuff together, watching beat after beat because I\u2019m looking at all the physical ways she moves,\u201d Poehler said. \u201cI\u2019m just always amazed by how she moves. She\u2019s like a beautiful dancer. Sometimes my favorite stuff of hers is non-verbal and all about movement.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Poehler also talked about missing live in-person entertainment during the pandemic. \u201cI cannot wait for live theater,\u201d she said. \u201cI know that everybody here misses it desperately. As a New Yorker of 20-plus years, I just cannot wait to go see live shows and to see actors on stage. In very difficult times, sometimes it\u2019s annoying to find silver linings, but one of the things that I\u2019m looking forward to is the Roaring Twenties that comes after this pandemic, where we are reminded of what it feels like to celebrate together, to hug, to kiss, to create, to laugh and to be in the same room doing it.\u201d<\/p>\n
