Jensen Ackles panel 1-2 - JIB15 (april 2025)
1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:02,678
Do I have somebody else coming

2
00:00:02,679 --> 00:00:30,239
up? Am I going to do this by myself? [Music] Myself situations.

3
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:34,319
[Music]
How does Mark Chev do it?

4
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:40,359
Next question. No. Next

5
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,919
No. Next
question. Yes. Next

6
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,398
question. Can I do

7
00:00:45,399 --> 00:00:48,398
that? No.

8
00:00:48,399 --> 00:00:51,359
Do I want to? Not really.

9
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,398
I'll tell you what I know in a way that

10
00:00:54,399 --> 00:00:56,558
doesn't make sense.

11
00:00:56,559 --> 00:00:58,599
Uh, it's the art

12
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,279
of saying everything without telling you

13
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:08,230
anything.

14
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:13,539
All right. Uh, you can you can do it.

15
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,118
[Applause] Hi.

16
00:01:17,119 --> 00:01:20,239
Hi.
Hi. Uh, actually my question is about

17
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,798
the subject that we're kind of talking

18
00:01:22,799 --> 00:01:25,279
about. Um

19
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,879
uh I was asking if you watch the Academy

20
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,519
Awards very often. I mean if you have

21
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,919
like a ritual of always watching the

22
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,758
movies or liking to see the ceremonies

23
00:01:37,759 --> 00:01:41,519
and if there is like uh a movie that you

24
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,279
really liked that won or actor actresses

25
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,319
or one that you really got disappointed

26
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:57,870
that didn't win.

27
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,438
Um, yeah, I yeah, I watch I watch some

28
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:05,359
award shows. Uh, I don't I guess I don't

29
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,318
put a lot of stock

30
00:02:07,319 --> 00:02:13,238
into awards. Uh, they're they're nice

31
00:02:13,239 --> 00:02:18,479
for those that win or get nominated. Uh,

32
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,159
I think it's a nice feather in the cap.

33
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,799
Um, and and I do feel like there are

34
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,359
projects and there are performances that

35
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,119
should be honored. Uh, and and I'm glad

36
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:35,439
that we have awards that do that. Um,

37
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,919
but I don't I guess I've gotten to a

38
00:02:37,920 --> 00:02:41,679
point where I it's not something that's

39
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:55,639
a necessity for um being successful. Um and Um and
[Applause]

40
00:02:55,640 --> 00:02:58,159
uh because I think the success comes

41
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:02,399
from from different aspects of life. Um

42
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,569
this is success to me.

43
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,799
[Applause] Um, I guarantee you there are people

44
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,199
Um, I guarantee you there are people
with Oscars in their houses that can't

45
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,518
get this many people to show up 15 years

46
00:03:19,519 --> 00:03:21,969
in a row.

47
00:03:21,970 --> 00:03:27,110
[Applause]

48
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,279
And I'm not saying that that one is

49
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,719
better than the other. I'm just saying

50
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,238
there are different there are different

51
00:03:32,239 --> 00:03:35,559
things that I think you can

52
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,439
uh you can hang success on. Uh would I

53
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,359
like to have awards or would I like to

54
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,039
be honored with an award? Of course.

55
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,399
That feels good. Um are there movies

56
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,119
that that or shows that get awarded

57
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,318
awards that I'm like what? Yes. I think

58
00:03:54,319 --> 00:03:57,119
we can all agree on that. are there ones

59
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,719
that don't get awards and you're like

60
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,438
how? I think we can all agree on that.

61
00:04:02,439 --> 00:04:05,518
Um, you know, the awards system is is

62
00:04:05,519 --> 00:04:09,238
and I've, you know, I've never been

63
00:04:09,239 --> 00:04:12,719
in involved in like being nominated or

64
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:13,958
being or

65
00:04:13,959 --> 00:04:17,999
campaigning for the upper tier awards.

66
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,798
Uh, I've I've won a few a few awards

67
00:04:20,799 --> 00:04:23,599
which has been great. Um, and that's

68
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,039
again something that is uh it's a really

69
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:31,198
nice pat on the back. Um, but success to

70
00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:34,638
me is is is not doesn't hinge on on

71
00:04:34,639 --> 00:04:40,159
that. Um, you know, there it's it's an

72
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:41,439
interesting industry when it comes to

73
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,799
awards. Uh, and I'm not saying that that

74
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,198
this movie wasn't deserve deserving of

75
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:49,918
of the accolades that it got, but you

76
00:04:49,919 --> 00:04:54,959
know, you talk about um Anora and it won

77
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,679
a slew of awards, but they spent, I

78
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,159
think, double the amount of money on the

79
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,679
on on the uh marketing for the movie and

80
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,559
the the campaign that they did for the

81
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,079
movie itself.

82
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,918
Um, so I don't know what that says about

83
00:05:11,919 --> 00:05:13,679
our industry and maybe it's something

84
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,119
that needs to be addressed, but it

85
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,478
probably won't. Um, and again, I think,

86
00:05:18,479 --> 00:05:21,119
you know, I think that that Mikey and

87
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,319
and that that whole movie certainly

88
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,079
deserved accolades for what they had

89
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,319
done. Uh but it is it is a it's an

90
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:31,679
interesting industry when it comes to

91
00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:37,519
awards because you know they I guess the big

92
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,319
because you know they I guess the big
question is are they bought?

93
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,159
Um and you could make an argument for

94
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,038
that. You could

95
00:05:46,039 --> 00:05:49,839
um so I don't put a lot of weight into

96
00:05:49,840 --> 00:05:53,198
what those awards say about projects or

97
00:05:53,199 --> 00:05:56,599
people. uh I put it

98
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,559
into what those what those uh those

99
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,038
projects for those actors what the

100
00:06:03,039 --> 00:06:05,359
reputation is or what it what it does

101
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,359
for the art or what it does for the

102
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,959
industry. Uh how how do they move the needle in

103
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,519
Uh how how do they move the needle in
making

104
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,318
um you know making this a a better

105
00:06:18,319 --> 00:06:23,119
industry to be a part of? Um, so I guess

106
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,638
I don't know. Did that answer your

107
00:06:24,639 --> 00:06:26,638
question at all?

108
00:06:26,639 --> 00:06:38,119
No, not so [Applause]

109
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,038
[Applause]
much. That's a hard one to answer.

110
00:06:42,039 --> 00:06:46,318
Sorry. Uh, hi. Hi. Uh, my question is

111
00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:48,239
not so serious. Uh, I was wondering

112
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,439
since it was April Fool's few days ago,

113
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,359
uh, if you was were a part of an April

114
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,119
Fool jokes or someone did an April Fool

115
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,999
jokes on you.

116
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,799
Maybe not this year, but some that you

117
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:09,999
remember. Um, like a good one there. So

118
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,510
that day I remember

119
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,959
specifically because it was uh a day

120
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,478
where uh Jared and Misha and I were all

121
00:07:24,479 --> 00:07:26,318
uh Jared and Misha and I were all
staying at the same hotel in Toronto

122
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,359
right now had a very early call. It was like

123
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:32,959
now had a very early call. It was like
we were supposed to be downstairs in the

124
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,359
car at uh 6:00

125
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,309
a.m. and

126
00:07:40,319 --> 00:07:42,399
Misha and I was down there at 6. Misha

127
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,918
was down there at like 6:03.

128
00:07:45,919 --> 00:07:47,918
And we were in the van. We were waiting

129
00:07:47,919 --> 00:07:52,029
for

130
00:07:52,039 --> 00:08:01,719
Jared. I know. Not shocking. shocking.
610 612

131
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:09,309
615 620. I called them.

132
00:08:09,319 --> 00:08:11,719
and he didn't

133
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:16,038
answer. I texted him. Didn't

134
00:08:16,039 --> 00:08:18,359
answer. Called him

135
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,079
again. He didn't

136
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,439
answer. Misha's like, "Should I go have

137
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,878
the front desk call his room?" I'm like,

138
00:08:25,879 --> 00:08:28,159
"Probably." Misha gets out of the van,

139
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:33,389
goes inside. I call him again. He

140
00:08:33,399 --> 00:08:37,639
answers. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

141
00:08:39,399 --> 00:08:42,158
Jared. Yeah, we've been in the car for almost a

142
00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:44,479
Yeah, we've been in the car for almost a
half an hour. Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, I'm

143
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,319
downstairs. I'm coming

144
00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:52,679
downstairs. Okay. And I wanted to be like, "April

145
00:08:52,680 --> 00:08:56,910
Okay. And I wanted to be like, "April
fools, you've got another hour to

146
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,359
sleep." And I had this whole thing like,

147
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,679
"This is what I'm going to do this." But

148
00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:07,030
the desperation in his voice

149
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,759
cuz it's the worst feeling being late

150
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,999
for work like especially on a set when

151
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,398
you have an entire like you know 100

152
00:09:14,399 --> 00:09:16,799
person crew waiting for you. You have

153
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,799
cast, you have directors, everybody's

154
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,559
waiting for you and you're the one

155
00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:24,159
person holding it up. It's the worst.

156
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,199
And I've I've unfortunately had had that

157
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,999
happen to me a couple of times in in my

158
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,879
long career and it it just feels the

159
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,838
worst. And I could hear that in his

160
00:09:35,839 --> 00:09:37,439
voice when he woke up. He was like, "My

161
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,398
alarm didn't go

162
00:09:39,399 --> 00:09:43,359
off." And I just was like, I wanted this

163
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,199
April Fool so

164
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,559
bad. I was like, "April Fools, you can

165
00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:50,479
go back to sleep." And I would have

166
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,759
happily waited another hour for

167
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,518
him, but I couldn't do it. I couldn't do

168
00:09:55,519 --> 00:10:01,159
it. and and and he he was in such a way.

169
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,759
Uh and I quickly called Misha. I was

170
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,199
like, "Hey, don't call up. I just talked

171
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,518
to him. He's on his way down." Uh so he

172
00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:10,359
came down

173
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,599
and he's already sweating. He was

174
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,190
already

175
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,799
like, "My alarm didn't go off. Do you

176
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,199
guys ever have that when you're just

177
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,559
like okay, I can't mess with him today.

178
00:10:24,560 --> 00:10:27,599
today is off the table. It's April Fools

179
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,398
and it's off the table. And and he was

180
00:10:30,399 --> 00:10:33,759
so like flustered and and felt so cuz I

181
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,679
mean we've been working, you know,

182
00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:37,439
obviously supernatural side, we've been

183
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,919
working on on the boys at that point for

184
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,039
like 3 days, 3 or 4

185
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:46,119
days and Jared is notoriously

186
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,479
late. Notoriously late. like

187
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,639
supernatural alone. I could list a

188
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,199
million, you know, uh, examples.

189
00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:00,039
Um, he's gotten much better in his older

190
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:04,398
age. And and for this, and he knew, and

191
00:11:04,399 --> 00:11:05,999
I knew this, I didn't even have to talk

192
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,239
to him about it. I knew that he knew

193
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,439
that he was a guest in somebody else's

194
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,559
house, cuz I'm a guest in somebody

195
00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:15,559
else's house when I go to the boys.

196
00:11:15,560 --> 00:11:18,999
and you you

197
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:24,078
are you try to be as as professional as

198
00:11:24,079 --> 00:11:28,319
you possibly can and one of those

199
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,639
tenants of being professional is showing

200
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,919
up on time and he missed his call. He

201
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,518
missed his his uh alarm that morning and

202
00:11:37,519 --> 00:11:39,679
the rest of the day was shot as far as

203
00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:42,239
messing with him cuz I just I I was like

204
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:43,999
I I can't I can't mess with the guy.

205
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,879
He's already

206
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,479
broken. So to answer your question, you

207
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,559
know, April Fools came and went because

208
00:11:50,560 --> 00:11:54,719
Jared messed it up for all of us.

209
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,119
So it was like April Fools on you. It

210
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,119
was really April Fools on us. Yeah.

211
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,999
Yeah. Yeah. It was a long long joke and

212
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,719
he won.

213
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,958
Yeah. So that was that's what happened.

214
00:12:06,959 --> 00:12:16,719
April 1st. Yeah. Thanks, [Applause]

215
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,958
[Applause]
Hello. It's not going to be a deep dive.

216
00:12:19,959 --> 00:12:23,799
Something I wanted to ask about ad

217
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,799
libs. Okay. Um I have thousands of questions

218
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,879
Okay. Um I have thousands of questions
about them, but really I wanted to know

219
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,439
three things. If when you're reading the

220
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,759
script does something come into mind and

221
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,999
you think maybe I could try that or not.

222
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,559
If that happens, do you sometimes warn

223
00:12:42,560 --> 00:12:45,119
your screen partner? Because sometimes

224
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:46,958
it looks like Jared knows that you're

225
00:12:46,959 --> 00:12:49,439
going to say something that's an adlib

226
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,398
and he starts to grin, but not just on

227
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:55,838
Supernatural and other um programs. And

228
00:12:55,839 --> 00:12:57,439
the other thing, the other question was,

229
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,759
are there some directors that you just

230
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,599
get the feeling that you can add live

231
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,999
with them whereas others you probably

232
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,119
shouldn't? Um, so to answer your first part of the

233
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,278
Um, so to answer your first part of the
question, yes, when I read a script,

234
00:13:11,279 --> 00:13:13,439
I'll read lines and there's sometimes an

235
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,518
idea will pop into my head and I'll

236
00:13:15,519 --> 00:13:17,439
write it out to the side of the script.

237
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,319
I'll be like, "Oh, this might also be a

238
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,119
good line or this might be a funny ad or

239
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,679
this might be an emotional ad." Uh, so

240
00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:29,439
that that can happen when I read the

241
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,119
script. Um, but more often than not, it

242
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,679
happens when you're on set and you're

243
00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:38,958
doing the scene and something now all of

244
00:13:38,959 --> 00:13:40,719
a sudden you're hearing the words out

245
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,879
loud with your scene partner and they're

246
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:44,559
saying it a certain way. You're saying

247
00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:47,359
it a certain way and then you realize,

248
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,958
man, this would be this would be an

249
00:13:50,959 --> 00:13:52,719
interesting line to say or a funny line

250
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:56,078
to say or a more emotional line to say.

251
00:13:56,079 --> 00:13:58,559
Um, and so a lot of times it happens

252
00:13:58,560 --> 00:14:00,919
kind of in the moment.

253
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,838
Um, there are times when I'll get the

254
00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:09,159
idea in the previous take and then they say

255
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,559
in the previous take and then they say
cut and then I'll tell Jared and be

256
00:14:12,560 --> 00:14:14,638
like, "Hey, when I say I'm not going to

257
00:14:14,639 --> 00:14:17,198
say that line, I'm going to say this."

258
00:14:17,199 --> 00:14:18,479
And I be like, "Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,

259
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,359
yeah." So he'll immediately adjust in

260
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,278
his head like how he's going to react to

261
00:14:23,279 --> 00:14:25,638
that or whatever.

262
00:14:25,639 --> 00:14:30,319
Um, but a lot of times I won't tell him

263
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,359
or a lot of times I didn't tell him and

264
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,799
I'll just do it and see what he does.

265
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,559
And he and I know each other so well and

266
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:42,319
we worked together for so long that I

267
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,198
know what he can I I know that he's

268
00:14:45,199 --> 00:14:50,078
capable of playing if I if I throw him a

269
00:14:50,079 --> 00:14:53,518
curve ball. And he is. And there's a lot

270
00:14:53,519 --> 00:14:56,879
of and Rob and and and Rich and you know

271
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,518
Matt and Misha like all those guys like

272
00:14:59,519 --> 00:15:01,999
there are certain people that you you

273
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,919
work with that you just know that they

274
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,599
can handle going off script in a way

275
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,159
that makes it

276
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,999
uh a a viable

277
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,879
option. And so I I always like to look

278
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,039
for those

279
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,999
options. Um always want to get it as

280
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,039
scripted. I always want to give the

281
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,398
writers what they spend time writing. I

282
00:15:26,399 --> 00:15:29,838
always want to deliver that. But then I

283
00:15:29,839 --> 00:15:32,799
might ask for like give me one more take

284
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,638
and I'll do something different that

285
00:15:34,639 --> 00:15:36,638
just came to mind. And they might use

286
00:15:36,639 --> 00:15:38,479
it, they might not. But at least I got

287
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,719
that out cuz sometimes I'm like if I

288
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,159
don't say it, it's going to it's going

289
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,679
to burn a hole in my head. Uh, and so I

290
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,879
will I will either do it in the moment

291
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,838
or I will I will plan it and tell people

292
00:15:51,839 --> 00:15:55,599
this is what I'm going to do. Um, and

293
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,638
and if you if you get the trust of a

294
00:15:58,639 --> 00:16:00,599
director and you get the trust of other

295
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,559
castmates to to let you do this,

296
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,559
uh, it's a it's a really beautiful place

297
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,159
to be in. Um, I was given that on

298
00:16:10,759 --> 00:16:12,439
Countdown. Um,

299
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,439
Um,
and I was able to really play and and

300
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:20,479
and I was encouraged to play. And so,

301
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,838
uh, the the the other actors that I that

302
00:16:23,839 --> 00:16:26,319
I work with, um, they were kind of

303
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,638
always ready. They were like, "What are

304
00:16:28,639 --> 00:16:29,638
you going to say

305
00:16:29,639 --> 00:16:31,758
next?" And there were some scenes where

306
00:16:31,759 --> 00:16:33,599
I would just I would do it off camera. I

307
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:34,958
would just change it up to just mess

308
00:16:34,959 --> 00:16:37,599
with them and see what, you know, see if

309
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,559
it it whatever they got. Yeah. Um,

310
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,239
and I will say though, one of the great

311
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,638
gratifications I get, going back to the

312
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,398
award uh, conversation, one of the greatest

313
00:16:50,399 --> 00:16:53,999
uh, conversation, one of the greatest
awards I ever get is making the crew

314
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,479
laugh. If I hear audible laughter from the crew

315
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,479
If I hear audible laughter from the crew
from something that I just said in the

316
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,999
moment or an adid or, you know, some

317
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,879
something that I've done, um, that is

318
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,318
such a reward for me. that is I get so

319
00:17:10,319 --> 00:17:13,038
much joy in that. Uh I think it's also

320
00:17:13,039 --> 00:17:16,239
part of just loving what I do and being

321
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,639
being uh present with with characters

322
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,639
and the and the actors and the crew and

323
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,239
the story and the and the action and and

324
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,798
being able to be comfortable enough in

325
00:17:28,799 --> 00:17:32,319
that to play feel the connection. Yeah.

326
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,839
And that's that's a really um that's a

327
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,079
really beautiful place to be in in your

328
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,279
work environment. And you know, you

329
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:44,719
don't just have to be on camera to do

330
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,359
that. Like any industry, like if you're

331
00:17:47,360 --> 00:17:49,279
that comfortable with your co-workers to

332
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,319
be able to

333
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,918
uh to to go off script

334
00:17:55,919 --> 00:17:58,798
in a way that that might make it better.

335
00:17:58,799 --> 00:18:00,479
Yeah. and that they have the confidence

336
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,279
in you to do that. That's that's a

337
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,319
really really great place to be. And um

338
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,999
I'm thankful now that I'm in my where

339
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:11,599
I'm at in my career to where I'm able to

340
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,079
do that a lot and it's it's a lot of

341
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,319
fun. when you were filming track room

342
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,319
with Russell and you were talking to the

343
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,439
morttery lady and you were asking her

344
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:26,399
out and you said so close and Justin's

345
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,639
just laugh was as if he didn't expect

346
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,119
you to say that at all. That wasn't that

347
00:18:31,120 --> 00:18:34,549
bad.

348
00:18:34,559 --> 00:18:36,399
But again, that goes with I've known

349
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,359
Justin for 20 years and he and I are

350
00:18:39,360 --> 00:18:41,239
dear friends.

351
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,798
And also the the the the head writer of

352
00:18:44,799 --> 00:18:47,119
that show is somebody I worked with

353
00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:50,239
before as well on Big Sky. On Big Sky.

354
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,519
Yeah. Elwood. And he's like, "Play play,

355
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,359
man. I'm just going to get you two on

356
00:18:55,360 --> 00:18:57,999
camera. You guys just play." And he's

357
00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,439
like, "You know what I wrote? That's

358
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,359
just a suggestion. Do whatever you do

359
00:19:01,360 --> 00:19:03,439
what you can.

360
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,439
And uh and so Justin and I were able to

361
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,038
play. And just this is something a lot

362
00:19:07,039 --> 00:19:08,639
of people don't know. Justin's one of

363
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,639
the funniest people I know. He is

364
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,639
outrageously smart and witty and and

365
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,839
funny. His humor

366
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,879
is like sharp. And one of the reasons

367
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,038
why I I consider him a dear friend cuz I

368
00:19:23,039 --> 00:19:27,038
I he makes me laugh a lot. Um he doesn't

369
00:19:27,039 --> 00:19:29,199
play that on camera and it I'm like,

370
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:30,719
"Dude, you're so funny." And he's like,

371
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,079
"That's not the role." Like, "You got

372
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,558
it. All right. Well, I'm going to." And

373
00:19:36,559 --> 00:19:39,678
he's like, "Okay, you do it." He's like,

374
00:19:39,679 --> 00:19:41,279
"Straight man, funny man." Yeah.

375
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:42,639
Straight man, funny man. And I was like,

376
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,079
"I can play that role." And he's like,

377
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,079
"Well, I can play the straight man." But

378
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:47,839
it also takes somebody who understands

379
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,038
comedy to play a straight role. Some of

380
00:19:51,039 --> 00:19:53,839
the best comedic geniuses in our in in

381
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,678
entertainment have been the straight

382
00:19:55,679 --> 00:19:59,839
man. Yeah, I mean uh um Jason Baitman is

383
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,479
probably one of the best in the business

384
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,999
and he is

385
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,279
hilarious, but he plays opposite funny

386
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:13,199
guys so well and and uh and so I think

387
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,279
in order to play that role and do it

388
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,519
with success, you have to understand

389
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,999
comedy and Justin understands comedy

390
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,319
more than people think. Yeah. Hopefully

391
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:23,999
we'll see him in a comedic role. I hope

392
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,279
so, too. Yeah, he's very funny. Thank

393
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:32,630
you.

394
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,918
Um, my question is about Soulja Boy. So,

395
00:20:35,919 --> 00:20:38,558
is there any line or a quote from Soulja

396
00:20:38,559 --> 00:20:40,959
Boy that you have unintentionally let

397
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,959
sleep in public? Okay, say it again. Uh,

398
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,999
is there any line or a quote from Soulja

399
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,719
Boy that you have unintentionally let

400
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,279
slip in public

401
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,519
and I can't say in public?

402
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:18,558
[Applause] Let's slip. Oh, that slip. No. No,

403
00:21:18,559 --> 00:21:19,999
No,
but there is a lot of things that

404
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,678
Soldier Boy has said that weren't

405
00:21:21,679 --> 00:21:31,439
scripted. [Applause]

406
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:32,839
[Applause]
I can't tell

407
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,439
you cuz that'll tell you something about

408
00:21:37,679 --> 00:21:39,678
me. Let's just say that when I get into when

409
00:21:39,679 --> 00:21:42,079
Let's just say that when I get into when
I put that that suit on, which by the

410
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:46,149
way,

411
00:21:46,159 --> 00:21:48,879
you know that like the the cast chairs

412
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,158
on on the boys, they're you know most,

413
00:21:52,159 --> 00:21:54,558
you know, like director's chairs.

414
00:21:54,559 --> 00:21:56,158
Everybody's seen those, right? They're

415
00:21:56,159 --> 00:21:58,558
high chairs like this, right? They've

416
00:21:58,559 --> 00:22:00,319
got the back with the name on it and the

417
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,759
the project on the back. So on the boys,

418
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,439
we have the low chairs. which are, you

419
00:22:08,679 --> 00:22:11,999
know, regular regular chairs with the names on

420
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,399
regular regular chairs with the names on
the back and

421
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,439
stuff. I can't sit

422
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:21,038
down when I'm because of of the chest

423
00:22:21,039 --> 00:22:23,839
thing and the and the this doesn't this

424
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:41,909
doesn't bend. And so I have to do this [Music] [Music]
very sexy.

425
00:22:41,919 --> 00:22:44,719
And it is and and I'm also wearing an

426
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,158
entire under layer under that so that it

427
00:22:48,159 --> 00:22:51,999
goes on cuz it's it's so it's like tacky

428
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,519
the the fabric. So, I have to wear like

429
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,918
compression pants, compression

430
00:22:58,919 --> 00:23:01,918
shirts, full length sleeves, full length

431
00:23:01,919 --> 00:23:05,359
legs, and then I slide these things on.

432
00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:09,199
It takes me plus two costume people to

433
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:10,359
put me

434
00:23:10,360 --> 00:23:15,789
together. And then I'm just in this

435
00:23:15,799 --> 00:23:19,119
thing walking around all day. And like I

436
00:23:19,120 --> 00:23:30,549
sit down, I'm just like

437
00:23:30,559 --> 00:23:33,279
It's not comfortable.

438
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:34,999
And I and you

439
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,599
know, you do scenes and you're trying to

440
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,038
move normal and you're trying to do

441
00:23:39,039 --> 00:23:42,399
these things and you're and it's you're

442
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,879
you get hot and it's cold of a drunk.

443
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,439
I'm sweating in that

444
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,479
thing. So, at the end of the day, I'm

445
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,759
just peeling everything off just like

446
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,798
Um, this is not answer your question at

447
00:23:55,799 --> 00:23:57,918
all. I just thought I'd take a moment

448
00:23:57,919 --> 00:24:01,558
and tell you the misery that

449
00:24:01,559 --> 00:24:04,959
I have to go through to play this role.

450
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,479
Uh, but there I will say that the writers

451
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,038
but there I will say that the writers
have come up with things that I wouldn't

452
00:24:13,039 --> 00:24:15,359
come have come up with.

453
00:24:15,360 --> 00:24:17,759
But the problem is is when they go

454
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,839
there, then my brain goes there because that's

455
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,239
then my brain goes there because that's
what I have to

456
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,999
say. And then all of a sudden I'm in

457
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,399
that frame of thought and I start coming

458
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:35,158
up with even worse things to say.

459
00:24:35,159 --> 00:24:40,239
say.
Um, and I'm not proud of it.

460
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,470
You should be.

461
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,239
My mother's not tell you that much. But

462
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,439
we appreciate it. But yes, there there

463
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,439
are certain I I guess when I get into

464
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,319
Soldier Boy's like frame of mind and I

465
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,719
start talking like him and I start

466
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,839
saying the things that he says, it lends

467
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,599
itself to adding things that maybe

468
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,199
aren't scripted that my mind comes up

469
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,719
with. And then I'm like, I need to take a

470
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,399
And then I'm like, I need to take a
shower for more reasons than

471
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,759
swim. And uh yeah, Kri's been on set

472
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,798
this past week. And he wasn't he wasn't

473
00:25:22,799 --> 00:25:24,558
necessarily focused on what I was doing

474
00:25:24,559 --> 00:25:26,399
cuz I had a I I didn't have much

475
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,719
dialogue. There was other actors and

476
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,399
cameos and stuff that were happening.

477
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,719
So, he was he was dealing with that. But

478
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,038
I do remember when I was when I came, I

479
00:25:35,039 --> 00:25:38,509
did a little cameo on Jen P.

480
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,678
[Applause] And Krypy happened to be on set that day

481
00:25:43,679 --> 00:25:45,639
And Krypy happened to be on set that day
and I had all the all the

482
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:49,599
words and he was throwing out lines to

483
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,839
me and then I was coming up with lines

484
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:53,918
that would top his lines and he would

485
00:25:53,919 --> 00:25:56,158
try to top my lines and so it was just

486
00:25:56,159 --> 00:25:58,719
this back and forth of like who could

487
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,319
come up with the most disgusting

488
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:05,519
words possible. And uh and that's that's

489
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,639
the beauty of art.

490
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:13,359
Who won? Who won? Yeah. So, is it your

491
00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:18,079
line or was that was it your line or uh

492
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,959
So, we both won because they ended up using

493
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,190
we both won because they ended up using
a cut of all

494
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,038
the they they couldn't pick one, so they

495
00:26:29,039 --> 00:26:30,479
ended up using like three or four of

496
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,319
them. And I forget who came up with

497
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,879
what. Uh but I I know I came up with at

498
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,918
least one or two of them. Um, tell us. I

499
00:26:37,919 --> 00:26:39,599
don't I know. Yeah, I can't remember

500
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,319
exactly what it was, but you know when

501
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,479
I'm talking to the kids and I'm I'm

502
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,439
saying stuff and it's

503
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,759
not nice.

504
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,399
There there was one point in which I

505
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,719
said the same thing but in like three or

506
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,359
four different ways. that was only

507
00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:02,319
supposed to be said in one way and

508
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,759
Krypky and I kept coming up with

509
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:05,119
different ways to say it and they were

510
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:07,119
he was like, "Yeah, yeah, yeah." And

511
00:27:07,120 --> 00:27:09,519
then they just cut all of those together

512
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:17,549
and that was the final product. So,

513
00:27:17,559 --> 00:27:20,479
um I've got some scenes coming up and I

514
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:25,439
just had some scenes uh and with uh a

515
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:32,710
young lady on on the show

516
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:37,999
And I I said some things

517
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,599
and I'm going to say some things

518
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,959
and I can only say

519
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:48,558
that that I I have the excuse of being

520
00:27:48,559 --> 00:27:49,779
another person

521
00:27:49,780 --> 00:27:52,909
[Music]

522
00:27:52,919 --> 00:27:56,558
when it's not me.

523
00:27:56,559 --> 00:27:58,959
I'm not saying that.

524
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:11,419
Soldier boy is saying that I would never [Applause]
