00:00I don't know if I was, I don't think we were picking each other's brains, but I think you

00:03learn a lot from just being in a scene with somebody, you know, you, it's a kind of an

00:07intimate strange thing where you kind of, you're having to do something together, but

00:11against each other.

00:12Those are the good scenes.

00:13Like she constantly in actual life is a little bit ahead of me and like just smarter in general

00:18and frustrating me.

00:20And I try to do it back in the only way I know how.

00:23And yeah, I'm just fighting for my life over here.

00:27When you're working with another actor that's great and professional and present and interesting,

00:33you learn a lot about yourself too because you're, you know, you're, it's a dance that

00:38you're doing like with the other person.

00:40And so you learn a lot about, oh, you know, get, it's informs like how you are, you know,

00:47maybe your character is feeling or, oh, there's a thing, there's like a button he's pressing

00:50that I didn't see, or how am I going to, you know, the person's keeping you on your toes,

00:54which is fun.

00:55It helps your performance like feel alive.

00:57There's a lot of ways you can do a scene, obviously.

01:00And like she could come in and be really vulnerable and that would change, that would change the

01:04way that I had a plan coming into the scene and vice versa.

01:08Like, you know, she could come in and be like even more just like in my face, just messing

01:12everything up, but doing it with a smile and kind of like with that like saccharine sweet,

01:17like yeah, hi, you know, sort of a thing.

01:20And you just like, you just want to just murder the person, but you can't.

01:24So it would just do really fun things, you know, as long as you just met the person wherever

01:28they were.

01:29I produced Black Widow before, like when we did it before COVID.

01:35And that was actually great because I was able to do, you know, like see through the

01:39creative process on that.

01:42And then I, you know, you realize you're like, oh, I can never not produce something I'm

01:45in because it's so much more efficient.

01:49You know, unless like something is handed to you and it's a production, you're like,

01:52oh, you're working for Wes Anderson.

01:53And obviously, like, I'm, you know, he's got his own well-oiled machine, like I'm just

01:56dipping into his universe.

01:58But I think like for the most part, I think that's why you see so many actors now producing

02:03the films that they are in or producing films for other actors, because it's just so much

02:07more efficient.

02:11And I think it just keeps like a happier set, really, because you just know sort of what

02:15everybody needs to do their job.

02:18I think I was producing the one before, which was a complete nightmare of a shoot.

02:21It just went all sideways.

02:22And then I came into this one, I was just like, oh, wow, I have days off on this one.

02:26And I have like, I don't have to like go to like production meetings after this day, I

02:30can just go home.

02:31Like, you know, I was like, this is great.

02:34I need to do this more often.

02:36But I think each one is unique, and you just kind of try to make it the best you possibly

02:40can.

02:41I'm doing a movie now that's so heavy.

02:43And so like, it's such a tiny little movie.

02:45But you've, you know, you feel like you're giving more than you do on this massive movie

02:50that we were there for months.

02:51And, you know, it's it's just all different.

02:54Also, the big part of I think that for an actor that wants to produce is like you're

02:59usually in the development process.

03:01And you can really sort of set yourself up to win.

03:05You can set the movie up to win, set it up for your strengths and like where you want

03:09to see the movie go. And like, so you're you've kind of done a lot of your character work

03:13in a way for the movie because you built yourself into it in a way instead of getting into

03:18it and trying to figure out how you fit.

03:20So.
