Interview: James Marsden & Cameron Diaz (The Box)

What would you do if given the chance to press a button and in return, receive one million dollars? The only catch—someone in the world will die once the button is pressed. That's the moral dilemma Cameron Diaz and James Marsden face in their new psychological thriller, The Box.

Diaz and Marsden play Norma and Arthur Lewis, a suburban couple with a young child, who receive a simple wooden box as a gift, but it bears fatal and irrevocable consequences. A mysterious stranger delivers the message that the box promises to bestow upon its owner $1 million with the press of a button. But, pressing this button will simultaneously cause the death of another human being somewhere in the world; someone they don't know. With just 24 hours to have the box in their possession, Norma and Arthur find themselves in a moral dilemma that puts them in a precarious position.

Tribute's Bonnie Laufer had the chance to talk to Cameron Diaz and James Marsden via satellite from Los Angeles and asked them about this intriguing story and the moral issues and decisions we all face every day of our lives.
