Interview with James Gunn and Chris Pratt from Guardians Of the Galaxy
Transcript
00:00Let me tell you a story about Chris Pratt and his process.
00:04I was thinking of the Kurt Russell story.
00:11Tell me about his process.
00:12When Chris was laying back after work, after a hard day of working maybe an hour and a
00:18half doing some lines and hanging out in his trailer, you know, doing whatever he does
00:22in there.
00:23And then he's...
00:24Actually, he doesn't hang out.
00:25He hangs out on set all the time.
00:26I do give you props for that.
00:27You're hanging out.
00:28You get the pickles over your eyes.
00:29Pickles?
00:30Why would a person put pickles on their eyes?
00:31Cucumbers.
00:32They are cucumbers.
00:33Cucumbers.
00:34You're getting your head massaged.
00:35No, I wasn't even...
00:36My head was...
00:37I was getting my hair frosted.
00:38So I had foils in my hair.
00:39You had foils in your hair.
00:40You're sitting back there.
00:41So a PA comes in and goes, Chris, we have Coronas.
00:42Do you want a Corona?
00:43I was like, do you have any tequila?
00:44And he goes, yeah, I'll bring you one.
00:45So he brings me a tequila.
00:46Okay.
00:48I have tequila and lime.
00:49Frosted tips.
00:50Feet up.
00:51Nails being done.
00:52No, I think they were like tanning my hands.
00:53Okay, tanning your hands.
00:54That's what it was.
00:55So much worse.
00:56I thought the nails was bad.
00:57Okay, tanning your hands.
00:58And then Kurt Russell came in and you said...
00:59No, no, no.
01:00You said, no, no, no.
01:01You said, we're gonna work with you.
01:02I said, no, no, no, no.
01:03You said, we're gonna work with you.
01:04And he was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:05I was like, what are you doing to me?
01:06He says, we're gonna work with you.
01:07That's so much worse.
01:09I thought the nails was bad.
01:12Okay, hand in your hands.
01:13And then, and then Kurt Russell came in and you said.
01:17No, no, no, Kurt Russell came in.
01:18He's down at the end of the, at the end of the trailer.
01:21We didn't share the trailer at the time.
01:22And the PA came in and there's this thing
01:24called a forced call.
01:25A forced call means they're going to bring you in
01:28less than 12 hours after you leave.
01:32So you drive an hour home, stay home for 10 hours,
01:35drive an hour back and you're there 12 hours later.
01:38That's called a turnaround time.
01:40But a forced call means
01:40they're going to bring you in a little earlier.
01:42They're allowed to do that once a week.
01:44They have to ask.
01:45And if they do it a second time,
01:46you get a little bit of a bonus in your paycheck.
01:48So, but they always have to ask.
01:50And so the guy said, Chris,
01:52we're thinking of maybe forcing your call tomorrow.
01:54We want to make sure that's okay.
01:56And I was a little annoyed because I knew that it was,
01:58it was a long, the set was like an hour away.
02:00If I leave now, it's an hour.
02:02I'm only going to get like eight hours at home
02:04and come back.
02:05Cause I'm, I'm, I'm still technically,
02:06I'm still working right now, you know?
02:08Cause I'd looked at the, on the signup,
02:09they'd had me leaving an hour earlier,
02:11but I was getting my handstand.
02:13And I go, I'm still work right now.
02:15And I hear, oh yeah, real hard at work down there, kid.
02:19I'm working.
02:20Oh yeah, look at you, I'm working here.
02:23My feet kicked up getting me a handstand.
02:25Oh, look at me working.
02:27With a tequila.
02:29Real tough gig, kid.
02:30I was like.
02:33You're right.
02:35You're right, Mr. Russell.
02:36Certainly, I'll be here.
02:37I'll be here early.
02:37Cause I'm tough like Kurt Russell.
02:39You're eating oatmeal in the middle of the interview.
02:41What? I'm not.
02:43I'm watching you do it.
02:45I did not eat any oatmeal in the middle of the interview.
02:48How did you see that?
02:50I did it incredibly slowly.
02:53I'm sure I'm invisible.
02:54Hi, Drax.
02:58Damn.
