00:00 Congratulations on this new film. What was it like working more closely with

00:05 Bill, Dan and Ernie, especially in this one having a more elevated role than in

00:09 Afterlife? It was so great getting to work with them on this. It's so surreal.

00:17 Honestly, I've been watching Ghostbusters my whole life and to be

00:23 able to, you know, I'm such a fan of theirs and a fan of the film, so to

00:27 kind of be a part of it is a thrill, a total thrill. I saw you had a pretty

00:33 epic scene with the Ecto-1. What was that like and was this the original car?

00:37 Yeah, I think that this was one of the originals. There's a few of them but

00:43 they don't, they're not easy to make and so they keep them and I think I'd

00:48 heard that this might have been one from the first one that I got to drive. It was

00:53 unreal to be able to drive that thing was unbelievable. I know

00:59 that I'm in a small group of people that can claim that. What an honor.

01:06 No, it looked pretty epic. I also wanted to mention I know you said that the

01:10 training... A lot of that, I wasn't driving in that scene where I'm going around.

01:15 No, you weren't. No, there's a lot of stuff that you have to do.

01:19 It'd be tough to try and film some of that stuff on streets in New York and they'd

01:24 have a stunt person doing some of that but a lot of it was in some of it was on

01:28 green screen too but some of it wasn't and I did get to actually drive it.

01:33 Well, we'd like to pretend. I also wanted to mention I know you said the

01:37 training process for Ant-Man was pretty brutal at times. How does

01:41 training for this compare? Well, it's not quite as intense but those packs are

01:49 heavy. After Quantomania, what are the odds that we're gonna get another

01:55 standalone Marvel movie from Ant-Man? I have no idea. I don't know.

02:00 That's not for me to answer. You'd have to go to Kevin Feige and those guys I guess.

02:06 And finally, I did want to say as a Die Hard Chiefs fan, how do you feel about

02:10 all of the attention that Travis and Taylor have been bringing to the city

02:13 and to the team? I think it's great. I love seeing people in love.

02:19 Come on, it's a great thing. I love that. Well, thank you so much for stopping by.

02:23 Have fun tonight.
