I think the studio at the time were 340 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 3: just trying to ensure themselves, you know, against the large 341 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 3: amount of money they were spending. You know. But like, 342 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 3: you know, what I said to Howard was the real situation. 343 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 3: I'm talking to Peter Jackson on the phone and I 344 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 3: just got the sense that he wasn't really that interested 345 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 3: in me being in it, that he was going to 346 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 3: accept it if you had to kind of thing. And 347 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 3: I was like, well, I'm all right, man, you don't 348 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 3: have to hire. That's cool, you know. And you know 349 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 3: I was, you know, you've got to be sensitive to 350 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 3: those sort of things. Now you look back on it 351 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 3: and blah blah blah blah, it is what it is. 352 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 3: But at the time it was the right. 353 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: Decision for me to any other roles. You've probably been 354 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 1: asked this one hundred times, so, but any other roles 355 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,959 Speaker 1: that you didn't take or you're knocked back, that we 356 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: would know. 357 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 3: That it happens. It happens continuously. You can't get into 358 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 3: the frame that I've been in and the business that 359 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 3: I'm in without having to say no, you know. And 360 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 3: that's that's one of the funny things that happens, man, 361 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 3: because on your the first part of your journey is 362 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 3: all about an upward trajectory, you know. And I did 363 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 3: things in a very traditional way in la you know, 364 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 3: I'd been doing meetings and smaller jobs independent films for 365 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 3: years before larger opportunities came my way, and I'd become 366 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 3: a part of the landscape, and so I knew a 367 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 3: lot of people. So as I was getting jobs and 368 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 3: being successful, those people all are your supporters, yes, because 369 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 3: they met you back in the day exactly. And then 370 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 3: big things happen, like you start getting nominated for stuff, 371 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,919 Speaker 3: and those people are going to be voting for you 372 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 3: because they met you back in the day, you know. 373 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 3: But then every one of them has a project they 374 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 3: want you to do. 375 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, now you know, even though. 376 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,399 Speaker 3: One before you're back then you know, and so now 377 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 3: you're literally getting hundreds of things that you have to 378 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 3: say no to. 379 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: Is there one that you regret? 380 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 3: And that's when everything gets complicated, and that's when your 381 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 3: jectory starts taking wider term business? 382 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: Is there a role that you regret that you would 383 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: have loved to have done now that you look back, 384 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 1: and I mean, you've had some amazing characters over the years, 385 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: but is there is there well, the. 386 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 3: Only one that actually would have a tinge of regret 387 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 3: in it? Really, because you know, I turned down the 388 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 3: Matrix series, you know, I read I read the first 389 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 3: draft twice. Yeah, I couldn't get past page thirty six 390 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 3: the first time to read it again, I put it 391 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 3: down to page thirty four. 392 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 2: It was great. 393 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 3: And if any of those actors pretend that they did, 394 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 3: but you just didn't know what the movie was going 395 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 3: to become, they just pull of ship. That was just 396 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 3: it was so hard to make a decision based on 397 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 3: the document, you know. But the one that I possibly 398 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 3: do regret was turning down the Johnny Cash biopick with James. 399 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 2: You would have killed it in But again, it was. 400 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 3: One of those funny things with a kind of an 401 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 3: internal morality. It was like, this is a dream job 402 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 3: for me. You know, I've been playing singing Johnny Cash 403 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 3: song since I was a little boy, of course, you know, 404 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 3: but I felt that I would be then getting stuff 405 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 3: that I hadn't earned. I'd be climbing on Johnny Cash's 406 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 3: back to get Grammy nominations or something, and it just 407 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 3: felt wrong to me. Saw that film, he's well, you know, 408 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 3: I know from personal experience that he's one of the 409 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 3: greatest actors out there. So the fact that he did 410 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 3: in the credible job was absolutely no surprise to me. 411 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 3: But from the very first notes, when that camera is 412 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 3: pushing through the prison and the soundtrack starts, you know, 413 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 3: the knife jabs into the heart began. You know, Oh God, 414 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 3: not only did I want to do the movie, but 415 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,439 Speaker 3: this is the exact version of the movie because I 416 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 3: wanted to do because. 417 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 4: You didn't you one stage, Rusty, Is that right? 418 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 3: I've still got still got one. Yeah, I actually I 419 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 3: still got two. Yeah. So I've also got a prize 420 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 3: possession connected to Johnny Cash. It didn't cost me a cent. 421 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 3: One day, I just opened an envelope and they're on 422 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 3: a letterhead. There's a letter from Johnny Cash and it 423 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 3: says I think this is the entire letter. It says 424 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 3: deer Russell. My wife June and I went to the 425 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 3: movies on the Friday night and we saw a movie 426 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 3: called The Gladiator. And on the Saturday we returned to 427 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 3: the cinema and we watched it the second time. On 428 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 3: the Sunday ovening, we go to a group of friends 429 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 3: and we attended the cinema again. I don't want to 430 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 3: thank you for your portrayal. It cuts my heart yours 431 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 3: and music. 432 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 4: Oh wow, that you never that. The other story that 433 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 4: came out of the Howard Stern chat, which made me laugh, 434 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 4: was that when you bought the Dinosaur from Leonardo DiCaprio 435 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 4: and I just I'm trying to work out how you 436 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 4: go from having chatting dinner with Leo and we're just 437 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 4: chatting about the industry and doing a bit of that, 438 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 4: and then it's all of a sudden and do you 439 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 4: want to buy a dinosaur head?

But you know, 446 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 3: I think I was quite clear on Howard that you 447 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 3: don't get into negotiations for a dinosaur head unless you've 448 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 3: had a few drinks, you know. Well, it was enough 449 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 3: to make it a sensible idea.
