Emma Stone covers the May issue (you read that correctly) of Interview Magazine. It’s weird the way Interview just releases their new issues willy-nilly, like publishing schedules are for peasants. I’m guessing they tried to hold this cover as long as possible because Emma’s new movie, Aloha, doesn’t come out until the end of the month (May 29th). Incidentally, I think Aloha looks absolutely terrible. I can see why the idea sold: let’s have Bradley Cooper, Rachel McAdams and Emma Stone in some kind of love triangle! But the previews make it look awful.

As for the cover interview, Emma was interviewed by Diane Keaton. You can read the full piece here. It’s so difficult to properly cull interesting quotes from Interview Magazine pieces because they really do read like a conversation rather than a Q&A. Here’s one section, where Diane and Emma are talking about Andrew Garfield:

KEATON: Andrew Garfield said, “Working with Emma was like diving into a thrilling, twisting river [Stone laughs] and never holding on to the sides. From the start. To the end. Spontaneous. In the moment. Present. Terrifying. Vital. The only way acting with someone should be.” My God. I mean, what did you feel when you heard such a dream-come-true observation?

STONE: He is such a poet. [laughs] But that’s the way he writes in general. So I hear it and of course my heart swells up. And I also know that he writes things like that on a daily basis.

KEATON: No way.

STONE: Yes, he does. He’s so poetic.

KEATON: What a guy. But that’s beautiful.

STONE: What a guy. He is a real Wordsworth. [both laugh]

KEATON: Good for you. Good for him.

STONE: Good for him. [laughs]

This interview could have been conducted before Andrew and Emma broke up. Or it could be a signal that they aren’t really over. Or it could be that they were already broken up and Emma just didn’t want to confirm it in an interview with Diane Keaton. God knows. I suspect we’ll figure out the status of their relationship with Andrew returns to LA or NYC after filming with Martin Scorsese.
