00:00Hi guys, so excited for the new season

00:03Thank you as Brazos official number one fan

00:06I'm so excited that we get to see so much backstory on this especially through you know, the the death of sass

00:12Can you talk about going back into the past of Brazos and finally giving us a look at what the heyday was like?

00:18Well, you know

00:19I always have had as a writer or person had an interest in people who were hot hot television stars

00:26You know for five or six years and then they become so identified with the character that it's hard for them to get out

00:32of that and so I

00:35Fascinated by that character and I wanted to play that. I was also fascinated by sort of a B level

00:43Broadway director

00:46No, and I I just like I thought there's a lot of energy there

00:51But I you know

00:53There's one season where I'm they're rebooting Brazos and I think it's about me, but it's not they've been a new star

00:59But I make a speech I say this show has been such a hit in Canada the United States and parts of Brazil. I

01:09Don't know I just I just like the cop show

01:14Genre

01:15now

01:17For Mabel, you know, she's been on quite this journey

01:20Across four seasons and it's a very it's very vulnerable for her when they're talking about making a movie

01:27She's she's guarded and she has to decide what's gonna be best for her in the end

01:31Can you talk a little bit about that because I feel like as she's going through the process after she accepts

01:36She's still kind of unsure at many points. Oh, I think I think that's very natural for Mabel

01:41I feel that

01:43She

01:44Throughout the show has tried to get control of her life

01:48and she's trying to identify what she wants to do and be and I

01:53Find I find her really like fun. But yeah, she's a she's aware and she doesn't wanna

02:01Stay stuck in you know a bad place. She needs a house and

02:09With death rattle kind of behind us from last season

02:13Oh

02:16My god had so much fun with that, but I'll try learning pick with triplets. Yeah

02:22That was a fantastic. Mr. Martin Eugene Levy and you go way way back

02:27Yes, we do. Was he the only choice for him?

02:30He was actually the only choice to play me and he I think he signed up right away because yes, you know

02:35I think I mean you're as old as friend

02:38But I feel like I've worked with a man had such good times with him that you just go yes, I'll break him

02:44that's fun, and then he's so good and he's so he's playing such a

02:48Funny premise which that he idolizes Charles, which no one does

02:55We can't figure out why I love this mystery man. He keeps calling me a mystery man. Who is this man?

03:02No, it's good instincts because

03:05Eugene is obsessed with him

03:07Eva's just about her own

03:10You know endless endorsements of products and Zach hates me

03:16Your relationship with Zach Galifianakis on this is hilarious

03:20And it really goes back and forth because we get a little bit of a ego on Zach Galifianakis

03:25What can you share about the chemistry between these two characters and the friction?

03:31Well, the friction is he does he's only doing this role for the money. He doesn't not interested in me

03:36I know nothing about him

03:38I think he's Jack black initially

03:39but I think that Zach Galifianakis is one of the great comic actors just a great actor and he's

03:46Such a lovely guy to work. Yeah, I like Eugene's line to me. I'm trying to get away from me

03:51He says, you know at our age thing to look out for is sepsis

03:56And then Steve goes, oh there's Phil Moses yeah

04:02for Mabel Selena

04:05What can you share about the selection of Ava did you have any insight into that now we all got pitched ideas and

04:12And I was thrilled. I if anything flattered

04:16So it was it was a really good time and she nailed it. I'm sorry that just

04:22So funny watching her do you know all of her takes it was very fun and really quick before I go

04:29Selena the emails that I keep getting about Wizards of Waverly Place has been bunkers

04:34They want to know where has your character been all this time? And what can they expect? What can you tease?

04:39I guess what I would say is now you get a glimpse of where Alex Russo and the Russo family is kind of at

04:4817 or something years later and it's a lot has changed

04:52But there's still the heart of what keeps Wizards of Waverly Place alive

04:56So I'm excited and I hope people enjoy it. And lastly, can we see any special appearances? Oh, they don't answer my

05:08But I was kind of was a little hurt when she said can you read for our cast
