Apparently, Jennifer Coolidge’s character was written specifically with Jennifer Coolidge in mind to play her. Probably why it seemed like such a good fit.
As for Helena Bonham Carter’s character, sometimes things work out on paper a lot better than they do when you actually try it out, and you have to go back and fix it once you realize it’s not working out. It’s probably a lot more rare for seasoned writers, but I’m glad they caught it when they did in preproduction rather than finding out after they started production proper. And, now that they have cast Laura Dern, they can get back to it, probably without any delays.
