Amy Adams better watch out, because Amy Schumer is coming for her job.

The comedian recently stopped by New York City's Hayden Planetarium, where she got the VIP treatment by getting to sit down with the museum's director, astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson. Schumer came prepared with space snacks and donning a spacesuit, which she thinks demonstrated her ability to take on anything.

"You don't know what's going to happen when you meet you," she told Tyson. "Did you see Arrival?"

The scientist acknowledged that he had seen the science fiction film starring Adams as a linguist called in by the government to communicate with extraterrestrials who have come to Earth.

"She didn't know she was doing that," continued Schumer. "So just so you know, when Arrival happens, I'm the girl you call. I will talk to them."
