00:00I was excited about working with everybody.
00:03And the most pleasant surprise of the whole thing was Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
00:08Because I had worked with her when I first started Saturday Night Live,
00:12my second season on the show.
00:15She came on, that was her first season, so we were on that show together.
00:18So we were like babies in high school.
00:21Then cut to, you know, 40 years later.
00:24And I watched the Seinfeld show.
00:26I watched that every night before I go to bed.
00:29I watched two episodes of Seinfeld.
00:31Then it lights out.
00:33I was a huge fan of hers from watching the show.
00:37And then I watched the VP, all that stuff.
00:40So to get to work with her again after I worked with her as kids.
00:43And she's so brilliant in the movie.
00:45I'm never going to meet a woman who understands me.
00:47I don't think I've heard of a man ever who wanted to be in a relationship so badly besides Drake.
00:52And I'm talking Views Drake.
00:53The hit it loud.
00:54I feel like Views Drake.
00:56Alone on a building, dangling my legs off, wondering what it's like to feel.
00:59Companionships.
01:01What the fuck?
01:02What the fuck?
01:03What are you doing?
01:04Oh my God, I'm being attacked.
01:05You're okay?
01:06But you're not getting five stars.
01:08Yeah, I'm an Uber driver.
01:09I mean, honestly, you guys are twins.
01:12Oh my God, wait.
01:13She really does look like me.
01:15I'm sorry.
01:15This was insane.
01:17Let me make it up to you.
01:19You're dating a black girl?
01:20I've never felt so understood by somebody in my entire life.
01:24Whether you like it or not, we kind of go together now.
01:27You're my boo.
01:27Come on.
01:29I'm going to ask her to marry me.
01:31Do you plan to out to her family?
01:32Yeah, I just haven't had the chance to meet them.
01:35What's going on?
01:36Tell me about life.
01:37How are you?
01:38This is your white granddaddy come back and haunt me.
01:42What?
01:43Now this is my fault?
01:45So you want to marry my daughter?
01:47Yes.
01:48Yes, I do.
01:49Well, Ezra, you can try.
01:52I would love to start with when you first got a call about this project and what ultimately
01:56made you say yes.
01:58When I got the call, I was excited because I respected the writer and the director.
02:05And then I read it and I was like, wow, this is a romantic comedy that has the edge to it
02:12because it's having this racial thing and that's unique.
02:19And I wanted to be part of it then.
02:20You know, my favorite scene is actually a really short one, but on the plane with you
02:25and Jonah Hill and Sam Jay, you know, when you call her bro and she's like, wait, do you
02:33have a favorite scene?
02:35No, I just like the whole movie.
02:37Okay.
02:37I like the whole movie.
02:39I like the scene in the barbershop.
02:41That's kind of funny when I'm trying to scare him and, hey, what's up with white cuz?
02:47And I bring him to the barbershop with red and yellow.
02:50That's kind of funny.
02:52Yes.
02:52And I really liked this scene with me and Mike Epps in the car at the end of the movie.
02:58Mike, he's always, I've done two movies with him and he's, oh, Mike Epps is just naturally
03:08funny.
03:09Yeah.
03:09He's raises whatever the scene is, whatever it is, he's going to make it, take it up to
03:15here.
03:16Just, he's just naturally funny guy.
03:20You know, lastly, your daughter got married in real life last year.
03:24You know, how much were you like Akbar in real life when you were betting whether he was a
03:28good partner for your daughter?
03:30No, I wasn't like that at all.
03:31This guy's a nice guy, classy guy.
03:34Smart.
03:35Smart, talented, so, yeah, I was nothing like Akbar, nothing like that.
03:43He came, we talked first, he talked to me and it was very respectful and old-fashioned and
03:49yeah, couldn't have had a better first experience becoming a father-in-law.
03:57Well, thank you so much for your time.
03:58I appreciate it.
