Cameron Diaz has insisted that her Bad Teacher character Elizabeth Halsey is not to be laughed at.
Talking to MTV News, the actress revealed the motivation behind Elizabeth's apathetic approach to not only her teaching job but her personal life as well.
"She's miserable. She's not happy with her world, and she doesn't pretend that she is," Diaz explained. "Her pain is real. She's living a very painful existence, so there's no humour to her in this.
"She's not a good teacher. She is the opposite of good. She is a bad teacher. She is bad at teaching... She just really doesn't care. She doesn't want to be a good teacher, and so therefore, being a bad teacher really doesn't mean anything to her either."
Diaz previously confessed that she hopes to offend people with the film because she will not have to apologise.
