00:00How did your involvement in this movie come about? Did Jerry call you up?

00:03Yeah, Jerry just called my agent and said, you know, will he do it?

00:07And I said, of course, it's Jerry Seinfeld. Why wouldn't I do it?

00:10And that was it. That was it.

00:13And the funny part was that, you know, I got the script and it's all, my part's all in Russian.

00:19And he's like, Jerry, you know, I don't speak Russian.

00:21He's like, that's cool, just make it up.

00:26Hey, brother, good to see you.

00:28Good to see you.

00:30Good, good. So that was it.

00:33There are so many, you know, reunions happening on this carpet.

00:37It's a stacked cast. Have you seen the movie at all yet?

00:40I haven't seen it yet. So I can't wait to see it.

00:42But I know a bunch of people that are in it.

00:44And, you know, it's so good to see them all.

00:47And it's going to be fun.

00:49What was it like working with Jerry Seinfeld as a director?

00:52He was amazing, man.

00:53And so, like, he was very precise about stuff.

00:58But at the same time, he was very laid back and allowed people to just do what they wanted to do.

01:03You know what I'm saying?

01:04And he would just throw in some, you know, Jerry Seinfeld would just throw in great lines or things you should say.

01:09A lot of improv going on with him, you know what I'm saying?

01:12So I loved it.

01:13What do you prefer, a comedy like this or a drama, which is, you know, what we kind of know you for?

01:18Yeah, you know, both of them.

01:20And it depends on which one I did last, you know.

01:23So it's great to mix it up.

01:26And this was just a great experience.

01:30Kind of a silly question.

01:31When it comes to Pop-Tarts, do you prefer toasted or untoasted?

01:35Toasted?

01:36I like them nice and warm.

01:39Awesome.

01:40Thank you so much.

01:40It was so great meeting you.
