The late actress interviewed with David Yontef for the "Behind the Velvet Rope" podcast earlier this year.
Prior to her death, Anne Heche gave some thought as to who she would want to portray her in a movie one day.
The late actress, 53, passed away last week as a result of a severe injuries sustained in a fiery Los Angeles car crash. A few months prior, she sat down with David Yontef for the "Behind the Velvet Rope" podcast, where she named two people she thought would be best fit to play her in a movie.
"I've already thought about it," she said on the podcast episode, which dropped on Tuesday, August 16. "The two [I picked] share a personality ability to face the world in a way that … I feel like I have, and I would want portrayed.”
Heche's first pick was none other than the multi-talented Miley Cyrus, who she defined as "a great f—ing actress."
“I’ve seen her Hannah Montana. To be able to do that, to be able to express that, to be able to be as bold as she’s been — going from Disney into, you know, ‘Wrecking Ball,' Heche explained, as reported by Entertainment Tonight. "The way she moves, the way she sings, her voice, her compassion, she f—ing loves everyone. Her ability to get out on stage and sing a cappella! That would be the way that I would see a pure artist engaging with the world.”
She also named The Good Place actress, Kristen Bell, who she collaborated with on the 2004 Lifetime movie, Gracie's Choice.
"Kristen, again, felt like a reflection to me," Heche stated. "Her ability to tell story, do it through joy, with her personality, charm, gorgeous timing and humor, I see myself a lot in her."
"I don't think it's any mistake that I played her mom, and now I want her to play me," the Emmy-winner added.
The podcast episode was introduced with a message from Yontef, who said he "had the pleasure" of interviewing Heche months before her untimely death.
"I, and everyone at the Behind The Velvet Rope Podcast, are deeply saddened to hear of her passing last week," the statement noted. "I hope that by listening to this chat, you are able to get a glimpse into what a remarkable woman she was. Having spoken to her for just this hour, I sure did. We release this episode today as a tribute to the life of Anne Heche," it concluded.
Heche was "peacefully" taken off of life support after her organs found recipients for transplants, her team confirmed on Sunday.
