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, frosted tips, feet up.

00:58Nails being done.

01:01No, I think they were tanning my hands.

01:05Okay.

01:06Tanning your hands.

01:07So much worse.

01:08I thought the nails were bad.

01:09Okay.

01:10Tanning your hands.

01:11And then Kurt Russell came in, and you said...

01:17Well, no, no.

01:17Kurt Russell came in.

01:18He's down at the end of the trailer.

01:21We didn't share the trailer at the time.

01:22And the PA came in.

01:23And there's this thing called a forced call.

01:25A forced call means they're going

01:27to bring you in less 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.

01:39But a forced call means they're going to bring you in a little

01:41earlier.

01:42They're allowed to do that once a week.

01:44They have to ask.

01:45And if they do it a second time, you

01:46get a little bit of a bonus in your paycheck.

01:49But they always have to ask.

01:50And so the guy said, Chris, we're

01:52thinking of maybe forcing your call tomorrow.

01:54We want to make sure that's OK.

01:56And I was a little annoyed because I knew that it was a

01:58long, the set was like an hour away.

02:00If I leave now, it's an hour, I'm

02:02only going to get like eight hours at home and come back.

02:05Because technically, I'm still working right now.

02:08Because I'd looked on the sign up

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.

02:19Working!

02:20Oh, yeah, look at you.

02:21I'm working!

02:22I'm working here.

02:23My feet kicked up getting my handstand.

02:25Oh, look at me working.

02:27Working with a tequila.

02:29Real tough gig, kid.

02:31I was like, you're right.

02:35You're right, Mr. Russell.

02:36Certainly, I'll be here.

02:37I'll be here early.

02:38Because I'm tough like Kurt Russell.

02:39You're eating oatmeal in the middle of the interview.

02:42I'm watching you do it.

02:44I did not eat any oatmeal in the middle of the interview.

02:47How did you see that?

02:49I did it incredibly slowly.

02:52I'm sure I'm invisible.

02:53Hi, Drax.

02:57Damn.
