The whole movie was the first 20 minutes of this movie. And that's Goodfellas. And I'm like, oh. But meanwhile, just broke.
Boom, boom, boom, boom. Oh, my God. And I'd be like, bye. Because I don't want to wear out my welcome. I got to go. I'll be right back. And then I'm just standing like five feet. It was crazy. The whole series, every scene is shot in one take. So it's not like a conventional show where we have our coverage. How did it affect your comfort in improvving?
You don't want to be the person who fucks up and then has the giant reset. And that definitely happened a few times. Anything about Seth, though? I don't know if it's because he's Canadian or the weed. He's the most easygoing guy when it comes to that shit. Even if inside he's pissed, you will never see that. Because if someone would fuck up, he just goes, oh, here we go.
There was one day where we were driving. Sunset Boulevard is locked off at 6 p.m. So we can drive a 1958 Maserati and do a fucking whip U-turn and pull up into the chateau. And the car just won't start. It's just getting flooded out every time. And he's got to snake up that tight driveway. Bro, it is so high stakes. If it were me, AI would just be like, we can't do this, obviously.
We'll get a stunt driver. I'll be in the chateau. We'll do a cowboy switch. I'll be on the floor.
And then if not, just use AI. Whatever the fuck that means. And the car's just flooding. The second time it floods, I'd be like, all right, I want to have a little meeting with everyone. This can't flood again or otherwise. I don't want to be hyperbolic, but I'm going to kill myself. And every time it floods, Seth would just go, oh, boy, this thing doesn't work. What are we going to do?
And it was just like smoke, but good natured. I was scared, but again, the knowledge of knowing that even if you fuck up, they're not going to yell at you. In terms of the improv, it was interesting because I've worked with them a lot. They're very improv-welcoming directors. They really love to hear what you have as long as it's in character and on story. Driving the story, yeah.
Every line is not advancing the story, I can assure you. No matter how much the boom operator laughed, it's not going to be in the fucking thing. So they are very welcoming of it, but some scenes we would rehearse for hours and hours before we even started rolling. So that was kind of the time, once you're in it, it's like a play.
You throw in a new line and that affects someone's cue, you're gonna feel like a dick.
It's a huge thing. Our DP, Adam, is just so active and running around. They built equipment that had never been used before for this. So the cranes flying in. If I ruin one of those takes, I'm like, oh yeah, what are you, Hawk to a girl? I try to cram in a reference. People are going to be like, fuck you.
It is. To quote Alan Partridge, surprise me in rehearsal. Ah, that's nice. It wasn't like a big improv bonanza, which I think was very good for this show. But they still let us kind of flex a little. But it was great. Just a lot of the fun, too, was working with directors like Ron Howard. Yeah. Like as an actor, you know Ron very well. And I have met him once before.
But when you're sitting in like a sprinter van with Ron Howard and he's looking at his lines. Yeah. At one point I said to him, we were shooting on Warner Brothers, and I was like, have you ever shot here as an actor? He goes, yeah, I shot the music man here. He was the boy in the music man.
It's an equalizer. Yes. You didn't have anything with Ice Cube. I'm not remembering. Did you? I shot with him the day after he came out on the Dodgers center field and sang for the World Series. It was really cool. Years ago together, we did James Corden's show. And you know you do it together. For better or worse. For better or worse. It has been worse for me. I walked out of Cube.
I was very nervous to meet Cube. He's an intimidating guy. Intimidating guy. And also, I was obsessed with NWA. I was obsessed with Boys in the Hood. Friday is one of my all-time favorite movies. The Predator is one of my all-time favorite albums. Three Kings is one of my all-time favorite movies. Death Certificate? Death Certificate. Trespass. I saw Trespass in the theaters.
I walked up to him and he was just like, oh, what's up, man? I've seen you being funny. And I was like, yeah. Yeah. Thank God. That's really good. I'm going to go fuck off now. Luckily, I think he thought I was Donnie Wahlberg. Okay, great. I'll take it.
Oh, yeah. Donald's a good friend.
Oh, if you come up to me, there is a movie called Rat Race. Remember Rat Race? Yes. Seth Green was in it. Seth Green. There was a guy in that movie. I'm blanking on his name. We kind of look alike. Okay.
Actually, if you look at the data, probably 5,000 times people have come up to me and been like, yo, man, love rat race. At first I was like, that's not me. But now I go, thank you.
Yeah, I love the shins, man.
But we have this rivalry a little bit.
