I want, especially a movie about Bob Dylan, I want, in all the movies I work on, that's why I did Dune, that's why I did Wonka, and I'm proud that those movies, I know I'm not supposed to pat myself on the back, but those movies were big, you know? Like in the movie industry, or the movie business, brick and mortar theaters, they don't, they don't do the business they once did.
Some of that's inevitable because of streaming, but I want to put my best foot forward. You gotta, you gotta give back to the industry that gave to you. That's really my MO.
And that's why I'm, that's why I'm here that, you know, you know, um, otherwise that's why you can't be the reclusive figure that Bob Dylan or Daniel Day-Lewis or these guys were because the, the, the, it's not about the bottom line, but the, the attention isn't guaranteed the way it used to be. You know what I mean? I hope this doesn't sound like too inside baseball or whatever.
Yeah. And then also I had a full ass real life before my career took off, like in the East village in New York. So, um, not that my life isn't real now, but like obviously on these press tours and stuff, the days are micromanaged in some way, but man, you, here's the thing. That's another thing I say, like as a musician or as a pop star, whatever, Your music can be about your erosion of humanity.
It could be about, hey, I'm driving this car, and this is the crazy lifestyle I live. But if you're an actor, if you lose your sense of humanity, if you lose your stink, for lack of a better word, people will see that on screen. You do see it on screen. Oh, you see them too fancy. You see them out of touch. People are going to know.
That's why the Safdie movie I just did, man, he put me through the ringer. Really? Oh, yeah. I felt like he was testing me early on.
Yeah, look, Josh knew me since I was 21. Josh Safdie?
That's one of the best movies. There you go, man. And Good Time. You know, Good Time with Robert Pattinson, he directed, too. I haven't seen that.
Yeah, for sure. For sure. But, you know, like early on, we had stuff that could have been stunt guys on this movie, on Marty Supreme. And I saw him wanting me to do it. And part of me was like, this feels like a test, you know? And I wanted to show him. And now I feel like I've emerged from the other side with no broken bones or whatever, thank God.
And Josh, I know I'm supposed to be talking about the Bob Dylan movie, but Josh is like... Yeah, Josh is the real deal, man. And seriously, Josh Safi, he's like the modern-day Scorsese. Dang, I want to meet that guy. Oh, dude, you would love him.
Yeah. I would like to meet him.
He could play Abraham Lincoln.
I could play Tad Lincoln. Tell him right now. His brother's an actor, Benny. You ever see the Nathan Fielder show with Emma Stone on Showtime?
That's his brother.
Yeah, this is a crazy, crazy fucking movie.
It's only on Christmas you can see it. It comes out on Christmas day. Biggest journey was the music and the voice. And also I've never had my phone off the entire movie. I had three months to play this guy. And then the rest of my life I never get to play him again. So I was locked in. You're never supposed to say you're competitive, but I want, you know, there's been a lot of music biopics.
And I wanted to do a great fucking job, man. I love Bob Dylan. I love this artist. None of this is for granted. This little misconception about actors, too, and acting, you can have a cushy job on a TV show. If you don't give a fuck about your work, it could be a great lifestyle, right? You're making, like, high six figures, maybe low seven figures, and you're just showing up when you want.
If you give a fuck about what you're doing, these are long-ass days. Wow. You know what I mean? These are 14-hour days, six days a week sometimes, three months. Look, I know people got it way harder, but I want to feel that grit. I want to feel it. I hope people don't laugh at it. I feel like I'm the hardest working man. Anyway, maybe I shouldn't say that. You respect what you do.
Yeah, because you got to. What else is the point? I talk about this with friends a lot. This is too weird a lifestyle to be... Nonchalant about. Yeah, why do this?
If you're not going to go as hard as possible.
