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.

00:47I have tequila and lime, frosted tips, feet up.

01:01Nails being done.

01:02No, I think they were tanning my hands.

01:05Okay.

01:06Tanning your hands.

01:07That's what it was.

01:08So much worse.

01:09I thought the nails was bad.

01:12Okay, tanning your hands.

01:14And then Kurt Russell came in, and you said...

01:17No, no, no. Kurt Russell came in. He's down at the end of the trailer. We didn't share

01:21the trailer at the time. And the PA came in, and there's this thing called a forced call.

01:25A forced call means they're going to bring you in less than 12 hours after you leave.

01:32So you drive an hour home, stay home for 10 hours, drive an hour back, and you're there

01:3712 hours later. That's called a turnaround time. But a forced call means they're going

01:41to bring you in a little earlier. They're allowed to do that once a week, they have

01:44to ask. And if they do it a second time, you get a little bit of a bonus in your paycheck.

01:49But they always have to ask. And so the guy said, Chris, we're thinking of maybe forcing

01:53your call tomorrow. We want to make sure that's OK. And I was a little annoyed, because I

01:57knew that the set was an hour away. If I leave now, it's an hour, I'm only going to get eight

02:03hours at home and come back. Technically, I'm still working right now. Because I'd looked

02:08at on the sign up, they'd had me leaving an hour earlier, but I was getting my handstand.

02:13And I go, I'm still working right now. And I hear, oh, yeah, real hard at work down there,

02:18kid. Working. Oh, yeah. I'm working. I'm working here. My feet kicked up getting my hands kicked.

02:25Oh, look at me working. With a tequila. Real tough gig, kid. I was like. You're right.

02:33You're right, Mr. Russell. Certainly, I'll be here. I'll be here early. Because I'm tough

02:38like Kurt Russell. You're eating oatmeal in the middle of the interview. I'm not.

02:43I'm watching you do it. I did not eat any oatmeal in the middle of the interview.

02:47How did you see that? I did it incredibly slowly.

02:52I'm sure I'm invisible. Hi, Drax.

02:57Damn.
