Alison Brie

'Somebody I Used To Know' actress Alison Brie admits she "loves to streak" and finds it "freeing" to strip off.

In Somebody I Used to Know, the new romantic comedy she co-wrote with husband Dave Franco, Brie penned a scene in which her character runs around nude.

"I'm really happy in my marriage. And while the character of Ally is certainly not a carbon copy of Brie, "a big part of the foundation of this story was drawing from aspects of our real lives in oblique ways: our personalities, our sense of humor," she says. "That was when we birthed the idea. "I'm really fulfilled by the work that I'm doing," she says. Putting it in the movie was her idea, she says in the new issue of PEOPLE. In Somebody I Used to Know, Brie plays Allie, a big-city reality TV show producer who returns to her hometown in Washington where she runs into her ex-boyfriend Sean (Insecure's Jay Ellis).

Alison Brie revealed she loves streaking ahead of the arrival of her new movie 'Somebody I Used to Know​​​​​​​,' which features a scene where she streaks.

"That was when we birthed the idea," she said. As for when she last did it, she suggested there “might have been some streaking” when she worked on the Netflix comedy series GLOW, which concluded with a third season in 2019. Franco also serves as the director of the film—which is his second directorial effort following 2020's The Rental—and apparently he’s not quite as comfortable with Brie streaking as she is. It took a visit to Franco’s family in Palo Alto, California for them to come up with the premise, which follows a reality TV show producer played by Brie as she returns to her hometown. "I certainly had a penchant for it in my college years," said Brie, who formerly studied theater at the California Institute of the Arts.
