And 23 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 3: I did it, you know, my little New York theater 24 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 3: experience growing up. I did it like ten percent faster, 25 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 3: twelve percent faster, and it kept they kept saying faster, faster, 26 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 3: and didn't hear from them for four and a half years. 27 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: So I figured, you know, okay, I did not go 28 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,639 Speaker 3: fast enough. I had no idea what I was doing 29 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 3: for this particular show, and I didn't think i'd ever 30 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 3: hear from them again, and out of the blue, just 31 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 3: got brought in to read for Bill, and I thought 32 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 3: it was I wasn't sure at first, you know, that 33 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 3: it was going to be a recurring that that wasn't 34 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 3: clear in the beginning. It was just Asian brought me 35 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 3: in for, you know, for this guest star role. And 36 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 3: I found out later that that not only was a 37 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 3: recurring role, but that. 38 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 4: It was based loosely. 39 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 3: On one of the writers of the show that that 40 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 3: they that I reminded them of. And so it ended 41 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,279 Speaker 3: up I just had to not completely suck in the audition. 42 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: So you actually attended Yale University and you graduated from 43 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: the theater program very maybe the most prestigious theater program 44 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: in the United States other than Juilliard or I think 45 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: Northwestern is up there, but I don't, you know, I 46 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: think Juilliard, I'm sorry, Yale REP is just right up there. 47 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: Or theater program. Now you you studied, uh is Bobby 48 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,679 Speaker 1: Lewis still a prominent name up there, and I I 49 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: think he built that program. It's a three year program, 50 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: is it not? 51 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 4: Well? 52 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 3: I did not actually do Yale Drama School for undergrad gotcha. 53 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 3: I did major in theater studies and psychology with a 54 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 3: philosophy concentration that uh, there was some overlap. 55 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 4: Of course. I had had some some. 56 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 3: Some connection to the drama school because it was right there, 57 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 3: and did let some of the undergrad theater majors. 58 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 4: You know, talk to them once in a while. So 59 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 4: it wasn't you know, complete silos. 60 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: But but no, I'm not familiar with the full you know, 61 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 3: the full drama school program. 62 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: So you grew up in New York City.

I was a kid actor. 67 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 3: I started acting when I was eleven years old. I 68 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 3: went to this theater camp stage door manor you might 69 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 3: have heard of a lot of other. 70 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 4: You know, a lot of other people in LA have 71 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 4: gone there. 72 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 3: And the directors of the camp who were fantastic, Jack 73 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 3: Romano and the other people there that they thought I 74 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 3: was really good and they introduced me to their agent 75 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 3: friends in New York at the time, and I just 76 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 3: started going out on auditions right away, and I ended 77 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 3: up booking a Broadway show. And thought, that's the way 78 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 3: that acting is. You just start auditioning and right away, 79 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 3: you know, you get a Broadway show.

I think they have 201 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 3: about a third of the funding so far for it. 202 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: And who do you like? What directors do you really 203 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: really inspire you? Who are your top people that you 204 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: always watch their films whenever they're on. 205 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 4: Paul Thomas Anderson, Charlie Kaufman. 206 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 3: Oh sure, yeah, those are the two biggies who I 207 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 3: don't miss. 208 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 4: I don't miss their work. 209 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 3: James Gray, James Gray he's a fascinating director. 210 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 4: I thought that one with Brad Pitt. 211 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 3: A couple of years ago was one of the most 212 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 3: fascinating meditation. 213 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: Which one was that ad Astra? You know what?

I think he's remarkably talented. Yeah, 217 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: that film, to me proves the point that movie stars 218 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: are few and far between. Can you imagine anyone else 219 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: in that role trying to carry a film like that 220 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: and you can't take your eyes off it. Yeah, that's 221 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: what he brings to the table because not a lot 222 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: of people can do that. 223 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 4: He's phenomenal. 224 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 3: And it's funny you should say, you know what you 225 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 3: how you were just describing it. You know, I brought 226 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 3: that film up to people and I've said, you know, 227 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 3: ninety five percent of the film is the story is 228 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 3: told in these two eyes. That's that's it. You know 229 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 3: that there's there's very little dialogue. There's certain sequences that 230 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 3: have it, but the story is so clear, yep, so 231 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 3: clear and brutal. 232 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, just remarkable filmmaking, a courageous filmmaking. Well, in my estimation, 233 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: you're going to be a very fine director. 234 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 4: I brought that one up. 235 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: We're going to do a little thing called rapid fire. 236 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: No pressure to answer quickly or speak rapidly. We just 237 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: call it rapid fire. How do you like your coffee? 238 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 4: Very carefully? 239 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: Are your team Logan, Team Jess or Team Dean? 240 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 3: It's hard for me not to be Team Logan.
