Transcript
00:00Listen, congratulations.
00:02So much going on.
00:03How did it feel to be stepping into Aaron Samuel's shoes?
00:07Did you have people that were asking about October 3rd yet?
00:10Not yet, except my friends.
00:12Yeah, it was terrifying in a lot of ways,
00:14because it's incredibly iconic, this movie, this role.
00:20And you can never recreate what has been made, you know?
00:25But we can hope to honor it and do our best, and so it was fun.
00:28I heard that you don't get to sing in this.
00:30Were you a little bit bummed about that?
00:32Fuck, no.
00:33Dude, like, no one's bummed about that.
00:35We're all happy.
00:36It's a victory for America.
00:38I think we would have loved to see, maybe just a little bit.
00:41I'll lip-sync.
00:42I'll do, like, the Zac Efron thing where he didn't sing.
00:45We're waiting for it.
00:47I also, did you get to talk to Jonathan Bennett at all throughout filming?
00:51Never got to talk to him.
00:53I hope I got his blessing.
00:55Like, I didn't ask, you know?
00:57But, you know, you can't recreate what he did.
01:00He made that character so iconic and one of a kind,
01:04and so I just tried to do my own thing.
01:06Well, the film is also super iconic, the original movie.
01:09Did you have a favorite Burn book, Burn?
01:11Oh, jeez, man.
01:12I don't even remember him like that.
01:14Oh, I got to rewatch it.
01:16What's one?
01:17Maybe one from this film.
01:19I don't remember any of them.
01:20Maybe Get In Loser?
01:21Yeah, Get In Loser.
01:23Oh, those don't...
01:26Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:27You can pick any of them.
01:28Yeah, Get In Loser is definitely the one.
01:30Finally, I had to ask about Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3.
01:33Do we have an update?
01:34Have you seen scripts?
01:35We have no clue.
01:36I haven't heard anything.
01:37They don't tell me anything.
01:39Keeping it under wraps.
01:40I would love to be the one to, like, leak it.
01:42I don't know.
01:43Right here.
01:44THR exclusive.
01:45If I knew, I would tell you.
01:50If I knew, I would tell you this one.
01:51The other one, to me, if I knew.
01:55I think I should like, I'm called寺 at trees.
01:56I never thought.
01:57I knew, it was going down.
01:58I know.
02:00I did see it again.
02:01I Looked in written?
02:03Maybe there were other ones.
02:04I know.
02:05This is my question.
02:06Those two prescriptions are torn over.
02:09I wonder if i was born or come in swap,
02:11One has to be holes in other times.
02:13I don't know.
02:15I do trust but I need to know what I love.
