It takes two to tango, but only one to share secrets.
More than 25 years after Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen starred in It Takes Two, one of their co-stars is sharing new surprises about the movie.
According to Jane Sibbett, who played Clarice Kensington in the 1995 film, becoming the villain took much more than acting. Credit also has to go to hair and makeup.
"We started taking Clarice's wig and we started moving it back so that she gets scarier as you go," Jane explained on the March 7 episode of They Thought I Was You podcast. "It starts normal with bangs, but you'll see that it gets further and further so that forehead gets bigger and the angle gets shaper." (See the TikTok clip here.)
By the time her character is ready to marry Roger, played by Steve Guttenberg, Jane joked that she looked like a hawk.
"At the end, for the wedding scene, we use one shade too light," she told hosts Becca Roth and Lani Harms, recalling her glam for the scene. "I get whiter and it's scarier. You can change your look by doing the wrong colors."
Perhaps the biggest twist is how Jane's nose played a role in filming. At the beginning of the movie, she said cameras would focus on the right side of her face. But as time passed, the camera would film from her left to emphasis the real-life bent on her nose—or what she describes as her "evil side."
"My nose is really crooked," she explained. "It's been broken twice. The bottom of my nose is really crooked." In other words, angles matter!
It Takes Two tells the story of Amanda and Alyssa (played by Mary-Kate and Ashley, respectively) who meet at summer camp and discover they are nearly identical.
They develop a plan to switch identities to make sure Alyssa's dad (Steve) falls in love with Amanda's social worker Diane (Kirstie Alley) instead of Clarice. While we won't spoil the rest, one thing is certain: Steve loved working alongside the Olsen twins.
"They're such well-mannered kids and very talented and very smart," he told E! News in 1995. "They're just a delight."
