00:00I think he'd have a lovely, broad chest.
00:02Hated it.
00:03I hated it.
00:04I think it would help you potentially win over the love of your life.
00:08Now, get out.
00:09How are you, Nick?
00:10Good. How are you?
00:11Very well. What a great film.
00:12And you are so perfect for Gobba.
00:14I feel like you had a lot to deal with.
00:15Peg leg, a lot of facial hair.
00:18One arm.
00:19What was the hardest thing to have to deal with through that whole filming?
00:21The moustache.
00:23I hated it.
00:24I hated it.
00:25I hate, like, glue on my face.
00:28I mean, it doesn't spring up that often, but it's like when it happens, I'm like, oh,
00:32I hate it.
00:33So, yeah, they had to, that took like an hour and a bit every day.
00:37And I just, I just didn't like it.
00:39But, do you know when you see sometimes someone puts like a, like a bit of cloth or like a hat
00:46on a cat's head and they just, they don't move, they like stop moving.
00:50That's what I was, as soon as that moustache went on, I just stopped.
00:53Because to move in it was horrible.
00:55Yeah, it looked, it didn't.
00:56I couldn't eat.
00:57Because you get all the moustache in your mouth.
00:59Yeah, that didn't look fun.
01:00Yeah.
01:01I mean, I am pitching to Dean in the first kind of couple of scenes of the second film,
01:05like a deadly nader blows it off with a fireball and then I don't have to have it, but he's
01:10not playing.
01:11Perfect.
01:12I like that you're already thinking well ahead.
01:14Well ahead.
01:15I have a stupid question.
01:16Okay.
01:17If you were going to describe yourself the Nick Frost dragon, what would they look like?
01:22He'd have great hair.
01:23I think he'd have a lovely broad chest.
01:26Right.
01:27You're just describing yourself.
01:28Yeah.
01:29Right?
01:30Yeah.
01:31He'd have beautiful wings made of denim or corduroy.
01:35And I think he'd have like a really, like in his talons, he'd have like a big Mars bar.
01:40Mars bar?
01:41Yeah.
01:42He'd gone down to a newsagent and stolen a big Mars bar.
01:44You are obviously tasked with teaching the kids how to slay dragons.
01:49Yes.
01:50I'm curious though, do you have any skills yourself that you think need to be passed down?
01:55Like, or you've tried to pass down to other generations that you're like, this must be
01:59taught in the same way that slaying is taught to these kids.
02:02I mean, I guess as a, as a keen cook, I think my, I need to kind of, if you can make a nice
02:09omelette.
02:10Oh good.
02:11Yes.
02:12I can't.
02:13Well, there we go.
02:14I think your parents, no disrespect, have kind of failed you.
02:15They failed me.
02:16Yeah.
02:17I think it's important to know if you can just cook something.
02:19Yeah.
02:20Even an, not even an omelette, it's quite difficult, but just that.
02:23I think that's enough.
02:24I think it would help you potentially win over the love of your life too.
02:28That's why I haven't found them yet.
02:30There we go.
02:31Genuinely.
02:32Every time I come into these, I'm like, how can I find someone?
02:34And you've just screwed it.
02:35Make an omelette.
02:36Make a great omelette.
02:37So thank you very much for that.
02:38Is there a time when you had a job that didn't pan out in the same way that Hiccup is not
02:42born to be a slayer and he cannot do it?
02:45Are you in your past had one where you're like, I'll give it a go, but this is not great.
02:49I didn't start acting until I was like 29, 30.
02:52So I had a lot of jobs before, before doing this.
02:56Yeah.
02:57And I was a good waiter.
02:59I loved being a waiter.
03:01And I was a cook and a chef for years and I really liked doing that.
03:05Yeah.
03:06I worked on it in a chicken farm.
03:09I lived in the Middle East for two years and I worked in a chicken farm and it was absolutely disgusting.
03:16Okay.
03:17And I hated it, but I was kind of forced to do it.
03:20How do you go from chicken farm to...
03:23Well, how to train your chickens to how to train your dragon.
03:27How do you make that jump?
03:29Yeah, it takes a while.
03:30And listen, this isn't the only massive film that you're going to be...
03:35Yeah.
03:36You're obviously joining the Harry Potter franchise.
03:37Yes.
03:38And I know you said you're not going to copy...
03:39I mean, you can't copy what's coming for.
03:41No, of course not.
03:42How do you put your own spin on a character like Hagrid that is so ingrained, I think, like in all of our lives?
03:50Well, I think what I plan to do is kind of you respect what went on.
03:55That's a foundation that has been laid.
03:57Yeah.
03:58And you just, as much as you can, ignore it, you know, and do your own thing.
04:04But you, you know, with the books and with what Robbie did, you have been set a kind of boundary in terms of this is the character.
04:12But as long as you play within that, you can do anything, you know.
04:16I'm really looking forward to seeing what...
04:18It's going to be incredible.
04:19Yeah, it is.
04:20And when I interview you for that, I will bring you a Mars bar.
04:22Thank you very much.
04:23I will love that.
04:24But bring it in your talons.
04:26In my talons?
04:27Yeah.
04:28Great.
04:29I will make sure I do all of that.
04:30And I'll make you an omni.
04:31Ah, dream.
04:32Now get out.
