So when someone works with you, they're
he's printing out the scripts to go out, but he read it.
And so he goes, can I have dibs on this part?
Now he had an active, he'd done a little comedy improv and he wanted to get into comedy, but that awkward thing where you're like, okay, I want to help you.
And I was new at having someone work with me.
And he goes, it's not a big deal.
It's like three pages or four pages, which is a big deal.
It's not two lines.
Three, four pages.
That's a lot.
And he didn't have any experience.
But I said, if I can.
I said, I will try.
Because I see him every second of every day.
So how can I just go, fuck no.
Which I just should have.
So here comes the movie.
We're casting it.
And then toward the end, it's still open because we're not actively trying to cast it because I'm bananas for doing this, keeping it open because we want every best person for the part.
So Sandler calls up and says, hey, I think Kevin Nealon would be good.
