"It's [like] a tractor… I know how to drive. I know how to drive a stick. [But there wasn't] enough time, she continued. They're saying, 'We've gotta go. We're shooting. Come on, honey. Just go. We're gonna go.'"
The 36-year-old convinced herself to do the stunt, [I] get in there, adding, "We get up to it. The camera is right there. Sam is right there. And I pressed the wrong thing; I pressed the accelerator rather than the brake."

"Then I cried a little bit, and someone else drove [the car] for me," the Star Wars star revealed.
