Philosophical Ferrera says goodbye to 'Ugly Betty'
Should America Ferrera ever decided to stop acting, she'd make a great politician. The star is the picture of perfect tact when asked about the end of her TV series "Ugly Betty."
After being moved around the schedule, ABC canceled the series after a four-year run. The finale will be broadcast in April.
Ferrera pauses to carefully pick her words when asked whether ABC was wrong to cancel the show.
"I think that our audience will miss us. We have a devoted and loving group of people who watch our show and who our show has been very important to their lives. I think it's really changed people's lives." Ferrera says.
"I'm not a network executive. It's not about wrong or right for me. It is what it is and you just do the best you can with the time they give you. You're wise to be grateful for it and move on."
That moving on includes concentrating on her film career, which includes the new feature film "Our Family Wedding" that opened in theaters Friday.
Ferrera, who appeared in "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" and "How the Garcia Girls Spent Their Summer," is also a voice talent in the upcoming "How to Train Your Dragon."
Ferrera signed on for "Our Family Wedding," about how two very different families deal with a last-minute wedding, because she likes the idea of a film that doesn't follow the standard Hollywood script of having the bride be obsessed with her wedding day.
"I think women are a lot more complicated than obsessing over one day in their lives," Ferrera says.
