00:00So I wanted to ask you about how you were you looking forward to coming back to the Madagascar world
00:05and why?
00:07Yeah, it's always fun to play this character, Millman, and I'm always up for, you know, the new script and
00:16the new story and the new situations that they're throwing these characters in.
00:20So I just, it's just really fun.
00:24I would say the same for me. I love Gloria, and it once again gives me an opportunity to exercise
00:31that muscle that I don't always get to exercise, which is basically focusing on the voice, because you don't have
00:38your face, you don't have the body, which you usually have, you know, this whole toolbox to act, whereas doing
00:47something like Madagascar is just your voice.
00:49So I find it to be a fascinating exercise.
00:53Gloria and Millman have passed, we can say, the honeymoon phase, and now are a couple dealing with reality, right?
00:59Yes.
01:00Yes, that's right, and I think we were talking about this before, and we both agree that it's really the
01:08little lesson of our storyline is about acceptance, accepting the other person you're with, in spite of their flaws and
01:15the differences and loving them anyway.
01:18So, yeah, I think that Gloria and Millman really are on the right path to a good relationship.
01:26I would agree with the idea being, I think that's, to me, probably one of the most interesting themes of
01:34the movie, the idea of once you get past the romance, and it's time to face reality, you see how
01:41these two individuals, how they embrace each other and embrace the reality of loving one another.
01:48So, I think it's a very powerful statement.
01:52And they join the circus, how does that originate?
01:57Yeah, it's fun, it's fun, I think one of my favorite images is one of the final images of the
02:03two of them up on the high wire dancing.
02:07I mean, it couldn't be more incongruous, a hippopotamus and a giraffe on a high wire dancing.
02:15I mean, those things, I mean, it's just, it's really delightful and romantic, I think.
02:22I agree.
02:25I would agree.
02:26I think that's one of my favorite images in the film as well.
02:29The fact that they are a hippopotamus and a giraffe, do you think that's a good message, too?
02:33I think it's a fantastic message.
02:35I really do.
02:36The fact that when you love, it sees past all of that, that at the end of the day, the
02:44outside of what you look like doesn't really matter.
02:47Because at the end of the day, we're all made of the same stuff on the inside.
02:51And I believe, and I tell people this all the time, it's hard enough to find love in this world.
02:56And when you find it, don't be concerned what that love is encased in.
03:02You just take that love and you go hard with it.
03:07Also, the movie is so stunningly beautiful.
03:10The colors, the 3D.
03:11Can you talk a bit about that?
03:13We haven't yet seen it in 3D, but I'm really excited to see it in 3D.
03:18But the colors, even if it's not in 3D, the version I saw is just, as you say, stunning.
03:26And to see every phase of it, to see it at every aspect and stage of production,
03:33and then seeing the final result when it's fully painted, as they say.
03:38This one in particular, the colors are fantastic.
03:42And great new characters.
03:43The dramatic arms come well.
03:44Can you talk a bit about that?
03:45Oh, man.
03:46Martin Short.
03:47Should we say anything more?
03:50Yeah, it's a scene line.
03:51He's fantastic.
03:53And Jessica is just wonderful.
03:55I love the interaction between Jessica and Ben, their characters in this particular movie as well.
04:03And I like the evil Chantelle Dubois, the Captain Chantelle Dubois.
04:12She's magnificent.
04:14She's scary and a fantastic character.
04:16Yeah, she's fantastic.
04:18Yeah.
04:18No, no, no.
