In terms of products that are absolutely essential for Howard, whether she's directing on set or traveling the world, she swears by this Theragun Mini Massage Gun ($199). "I bring the Theragun with me pretty much everywhere because it has replaced the need to get massages or to [do] physio and all that kind of stuff. Obviously, that's a huge privilege — and to even have the time and the resources to have access to those kinds of therapies, that's a rarity for so many folks. And so using the Theragun has been my way to just really stay on top of my potential ailments."
Pro Tip: Howard has found extended use for her Theragun, saying the massage gun is a worthwhile purchase (or gift) for anyone who is constantly on the go. "When I direct on Star Wars — I love directing action — and I bring my Theragun with me to set. And after a stunt performer will do a remarkable stunt, my way of saying thank you to them is I'll just pass them my Theragun. I'll be like: 'Cut. Thank you.'" Coolest director ever?
