While Sandra Bullock can’t reveal much about her upcoming film “Ocean’s 8,” the actress did share some fun moments she had with co-stars Helena Bonham Carter and Sarah Paulson on set.

“For some reason what’s coming to mind is that Helena Bonham Carter was like a cat,” Bullock responded to a fan’s question in a video for InStyle. “I could take the laser pointer, and just at random moments I would point the laser pointer on the floor and she would jump out of the chair and follow it like a human cat. It was incredibly impressive.”

And “Sarah Paulson trying to sing like Rihanna,” added Bullock. “Never sounded like Rihanna. But she tried! We had a pretty good time.”
