00:15Hola, bienvenidos a Build Series, soy Adam Lance-Garcia de Yahoo! Entertainment.
00:19He's been a jukebox repairman, a big bad, a browncoat, a crime-solving detective,
00:23but for the first time ever, he's playing a rookie.
00:26Let's take a look at the aptly tiled new series, The Rookie.
00:36Happy Divorce Day.
00:38So, what do you want to do next?
00:40I figured I'll let you know.
00:47Everybody have to go on now!
00:50Get down!
00:51Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:52Get down, Matt!
00:53You want to die?
00:54No.
00:56But, honestly, have I really lived?
00:59This fake robbery is the most saddest thing that's happened to me in a lot of years.
01:07Please drop it off!
01:20We got some new blood this morning, and some who were born before Disco died.
01:25Officer Bishop, you get to ride with a 40-year-old rookie.
01:28Sergeant Gray does not appear to be a fan of my presence in this department.
01:31Because you're old as hell?
01:33You're about to hit the street with a loaded handgun, and no idea what happens next.
01:43The unicorn!
01:44He's laughing at me!
01:45I can handle unicorns, all right?
01:46This is what we train for.
01:49Go get him, boo!
01:50Do you think this is a joke?
01:51No, ma'am.
01:52I'm here to work, and I won't let you down.
01:53I don't like you, Officer Nolan.
01:55I hate what you represent.
01:56A walking midlife crisis.
01:58And that will get my people killed.
02:03You know, I thought taking control of my life was going to be liberating, but you got me a mistake.
02:08Show me what you got.
02:09There's a moment in your bones when, when the fire takes over.
02:15Watch how I did it.
02:17He dove right in, even though there was a knife.
02:19I think there's value in having a rookie with his perspective.
02:21He deserves a chance.
02:22I thought I had to become someone else to do this job.
02:25That who I was before wasn't good enough.
02:27I earned my place here, and I'm not leaving.
02:30We can be here, everywhere we go.
02:33We can have all that we ever want.
02:39I became a cop to help people, not kill them.
02:41What happens next?
02:42It'll change both of our lives.
02:55You tired, Officer Nolan?
02:57No, ma'am.
02:57Good, because we got eight hours left on our shift.
03:07Please welcome the star of The Rookie, Nathan Fillion.
03:14Holy crap, I'm talking to Nathan Fillion.
03:16I never thought this day would come, and I'm very excited, not going to lie.
03:19Thanks.
03:19Good.
03:20This is a great interview so far.
03:23So tell us a little bit about the show and the character you're playing.
03:26So it's a cop show.
03:27History tells us that people enjoy cop shows.
03:31We were looking for a new foray into a new angle, and the idea of the do-over is prevalent
03:41in our culture right now.
03:42This is what people are doing.
03:44Marriage was the norm, then divorce became the norm, and now people are starting over.
03:51Gone are the days where you get a job in your early 20s or late teens, and you die doing
03:57that job.
03:58The changeover is much faster.
04:00Things are happening at a much more rapid rate.
04:03So if you are not experiencing a do-over in your life, you know someone who is.
04:08And this is what's happening right now, and that was our in.
04:11Look at this guy.
04:12He's so handsome.
04:14This is based on a real story, a true story.
04:17How does approaching a character that is real, how does it change your approach to the character?
04:23You know, we're not telling this.
04:27There is a man who, at 40 years old, decided to become a cop.
04:30Right.
04:31And the LAPD is one of two precincts that will take you over the age of 37.
04:37So we are borrowing that idea and then taking it and making a TV show out of it.
04:42We're not trying to retell the story of this gentleman's life.
04:46There is a kernel of truth from which we plant and sow the crop that is our series.
04:52You're one of the executive producers on the series.
04:54That's correct.
04:55And how does your time as a producer affect your approach to this show?
05:01Because you've produced a few shows by now.
05:03You know, I think in my case, being a producer on the show simply gives you a title for all
05:14the experience that you bring along with it.
05:17Case in point, the other day we were shooting in Los Angeles.
05:21It's hot in L.A.
05:22It's a little chilly here, but in L.A. we still have very hot days.
05:25It was 109, we're in an alley, downtown Los Angeles.
05:29We're wearing black wool.
05:31It's hot.
05:33And we were talking about filming this scene and I said, you know, everything after, this
05:38is the setup, this is the punchline, everything after that is, we'll get cut out of the show.
05:43We'll never have time.
05:44We'll never, we'll never ever see it.
05:46Why film it?
05:47It's going to take us three hours to film that part.
05:49Let's just cut it out now.
05:52It's nice having that kind of voice.
05:54Yeah.
05:54I also feel like this show is a lot more serious than I expect it to be.
05:58Like, you are, you're really great at playing sort of this lovable asshole and I say that
06:03with love because you're really good at it.
06:05It's a, it's a fine line to walk, I always find.
06:07Like, you can't be, you have to be charming, you have to be quick, but you always make it
06:12enjoyable and fun.
06:13But what I really appreciated about the show, and we were talking about it before we went
06:16on air, is that there's a lot of emotion behind this show.
06:20So, uh, there's a scene where, I'm not going to spoil it, where I got worked up watching
06:24it.
06:24And I guess I always want to know when you're balancing the line of like humor and drama,
06:31what is that challenge like for you?
06:35Drama is a lot easier than comedy.
06:38Making people laugh is, is, is hard to do.
06:40Yeah.
06:41Uh, drama, you do far less.
06:45There you go.
06:46There you go.
06:47Um, uh, there's an important conversation happening in this country right now about how
06:52police and community, and policing community, community relations.
06:57How do you hope this show addresses that conversation?
07:01You know, good question.
07:04There is certainly enough bad stories we're going to see in the news.
07:08And unfortunately, bad news is, makes for good news.
07:12Um, but the fact is, uh, when something goes wrong, we all still dial 911.
07:17There's a lot of cops out there who are doing a fantastic job that you just don't hear about
07:21because it just doesn't make for good news.
07:24Um, we, uh, we are well aware, uh, that there are, uh, you know, bad things happening out there.
07:31But we are interested in, in, um, in telling the stories of, uh, people who are inspired to be police
07:38officers.
07:38This is a calling.
07:39This is a public service.
07:41This is a terrible job.
07:43Oh, my God.
07:44I would never be a cop.
07:45Guys, just so you know.
07:49When everything goes terribly, terribly wrong, that's when police jobs start.
07:55This is already out of hand.
07:57Now you go.
07:58And the stakes are very, very high.
08:00Um, it's an intense job.
08:03And you have to, you have to have that calling.
08:06Did you do any ride-alongs to research the role?
08:08There are people, uh, on our show who did some ride-alongs.
08:11I, I was actually, I went to places like London to sell the show and press our interests, uh, you
08:16know, industry-wise.
08:18While they were doing ride-alongs, uh, their experiences ran from the most exciting thing was getting tacos
08:23to we came, uh, across a, um, a gang block party.
08:29Oh, that's not terrible.
08:32They said it was tense.
08:32Yeah.
08:33They said it was tense.
08:33Huh.
08:34Yeah.
08:34Um, you look amazing, by the way.
08:36Keep talking.
08:37Uh, so, I mean, you're, you look just incredible.
08:41And, uh, just really handsome and just great.
08:45No, but you, you look in incredible shape.
08:47Thank you.
08:47What did you do to prepare for this role?
08:49Because, and speak slowly, because I want to get feeling unfit.
08:54Um, I, uh, okay, well, you know, you do this, you do, you do the thing where you try to
08:59cut
08:59out the sugar.
09:00Yeah.
09:00You don't, sugar and bread, you try to cut that stuff out.
09:02You want to work out.
09:02You want to treat yourself good.
09:03Drink lots of water.
09:04Mm-hmm.
09:04On top of everything, I got a little, uh, little, like a little watch that counts your
09:08steps.
09:08Uh-huh.
09:08And you're supposed to do 12,000 steps a day.
09:11Okay.
09:12That equals for me about, almost six miles a day.
09:14It's a job.
09:15It's a job.
09:16It's really hard to get that many steps in.
09:17And then on top of that, uh, the, the, the steps on my watch are so small, I can't, I
09:22can't read it.
09:24So, I'm so old, I can't read my watch.
09:27I have to ask somebody, how many steps do I have?
09:30Uh, speaking of age, not to make everyone here feel very old, but it's been 20 years since
09:34you premiered, uh, the character of John Lee, Johnny Donnelly on Two Guys, A Girl, and
09:39a Pizza Place.
09:39This is, this sounds close to true.
09:41Yeah.
09:41It's, it was 1998.
09:43Yes.
09:43Uh, so I feel very old because I remember when that, uh, came on and I watched that show
09:47quite a bit.
09:48Uh, I was wondering, what do you remember of that role and are you-
09:52Everything.
09:53Everything.
09:53Go on.
09:54I remember everything.
09:55I remember, that was when I learned when, uh, so I came on as this character who seemed
09:58like a really cool guy.
09:59He was the fix it guy.
10:00Yeah.
10:00He was the nice guy.
10:01He was, he, he was the voice of reason.
10:03Whereas the other characters were really out there.
10:06And then later on they said, and by the way, now he's cheap.
10:10Huh.
10:11And I thought, what?
10:12I had this really cool character.
10:13He was so awesome.
10:14And now he's cheap.
10:15That's, I thought that was the worst.
10:17And then I realized nobody wants a perfect guy.
10:19Yeah.
10:19There are no perfect guys.
10:21I mean, I'm looking at one right now.
10:23Keep talking.
10:23But the flaws are where you get the relatability.
10:28Right.
10:29We all know someone cheap.
10:30And the flaws are where we mine the comedy.
10:33And you started as like a, a secondary character, but then you graduated to a series regular.
10:37That's correct.
10:38And then it sort of like, it changed from two guys, a girl and, and a pizza place to just
10:42two guys and a girl.
10:43Yes.
10:43Like, how did that transition feel for you?
10:45Because was that your first series regular role?
10:47Let me tell you, I was broke.
10:51I had watched my, my money dwindle away.
10:53I was a year of unemployment.
10:55I was, I was reaching for the phone to pick it up to call One Life to Live.
11:01I used to work down the street, which way is north?
11:03And that's north?
11:04Yeah.
11:04I used to work up on 66th Street.
11:06I was on One Life to Live for three years, had a great time.
11:08Yeah.
11:08And I came out to LA to try my hand.
11:10I did like a couple of jobs.
11:12I was on a rocket, you guys.
11:13I was on a rocket to the top.
11:14It was amazing.
11:15And then a year of unemployment and I was ready to come back and the phone rang as I was
11:20about to pick it up and that was two guys and a girl saying, why don't you come by?
11:24And that job lasted me two and a half years.
11:26And I got to say, that unemployment taught me the value of work.
11:32Yeah.
11:32I know what it is like to pay my rent on credit.
11:36Yeah.
11:36And to value a job is, it's a, it's a good lesson.
11:41Speaking of One Life to Live, one thing that I always found interesting about the way
11:44those series were shot.
11:46They were shot like down an aisle and like they would move to other sets down this aisle
11:52for, they shoot an entire episode in a day.
11:53Yes.
11:54I, I've, what was that like?
11:55Because that feels like the most intense job for an actor just to like.
12:00I will never speak poorly of daytime.
12:03Yeah.
12:03It is the hardest work I've ever done.
12:05It's the most intense work I've ever done.
12:08Now I shoot a 42 minute program.
12:10It takes me eight days of 14 to 16 hour days.
12:14Whereas then we would do one and then a little bit of an episode every day.
12:20Now, I think they changed it since for the few soaps that are left.
12:23It's a dying, it's a dying breed.
12:24Yes.
12:26So Josh Whedon described Mel Reynolds as, this is, I know a lot of browncoats in the audience.
12:32Is that true?
12:34See?
12:35Just checking.
12:36Thank you.
12:36I'm a browncoat.
12:38I'm not going to lie.
12:39But he described him as sort of Han Solo.
12:41Did you go see Solo and you're like, I've done it better.
12:44I really enjoyed Solo.
12:46So did I.
12:47I had a really great time.
12:48Why is my voice so high?
12:49I don't know.
12:51But I enjoyed, I had a great time with Solo.
12:53There's a guy that I can relate to.
12:56And like Malcolm Reynolds, just the worst luck.
13:00Yeah.
13:01I mean, just can't catch a break.
13:03I can relate to that.
13:04I can't relate so much to spaceships and robots and that kind of super future stuff and traveling
13:11to different planets.
13:11But not catching a break, I can relate to that.
13:15Although I am pretty super duper lucky in real life, actually.
13:18Yes, he is.
13:18I'm really lucky, guys.
13:19He's really lucky, guys.
13:22You originally did a Nathan Drake fan film.
13:25I did that.
13:26And I loved it, by the way, because it's like, if there's one person who needs to play Nathan
13:30Drake, it's you.
13:31Thanks.
13:32That's very kind.
13:33How did you get involved in that?
13:34Because I've always been fascinated by the fan film culture.
13:37And you're like, oh, this is a fan film.
13:39I'll do it.
13:40Alan Unger, a director from Canada, was introduced to me through a mutual friend.
13:45And we sat down for vegan Thai food.
13:49And I had some sort of pad thai with no meat.
13:53And he is a fan of that franchise.
14:00And I really enjoyed those games.
14:02There's another guy that we can relate to.
14:04I could totally picture myself in Nathan Drake's shoes, only maybe not as smart with the history.
14:09But I'm not such a climby guy, too.
14:11I'm not with heights.
14:12You can do it.
14:12I mean, it's like you're just like on a little apple box.
14:15Heights.
14:15Yeah.
14:16I know.
14:18But like Alan Unger, I was waiting for someone to do something Drake's fortune oriented.
14:28I wanted to see it.
14:29Just show me something.
14:30And we kind of got tired of waiting.
14:31So he wanted to do something, and I was in.
14:34How has the response surprised you at all?
14:37Because I know fans have been advocating for you to be Nathan Drake for years.
14:42And you're doing it.
14:42And now what do we do?
14:44My question really is, what do we have to do now to get you on the big screen?
14:47Yes.
14:48So the one thing that did surprise me was for everyone who said, I want Nathan Fillion as Nathan Drake,
14:54then you give it to them, and they go, not enough.
14:59You know what I mean?
15:00So he finally got it.
15:01And it's like, but more.
15:02So, but it became my new hobby after we did that.
15:06We released it on YouTube.
15:07It became my new hobby to watch the fan film reactions that people do.
15:11Yeah, yeah.
15:11They film themselves watching the thing.
15:14What's the coolest one you've seen?
15:16There was this kid.
15:17He's wearing glasses.
15:18He's blonde.
15:19He has a slight accent, some European accent.
15:22And he was just a step ahead every moment.
15:28He was just, he knew what was coming next.
15:30He was just kind of rewarded with every moment.
15:32It was very fun to watch him.
15:34Don't read the YouTube comments.
15:35I'm just going to tell you right now, though.
15:36Like, YouTube comments.
15:37They're great.
15:38They're great.
15:38Just in general.
15:41They're just, they're a nightmare.
15:44I didn't know that part.
15:45You're fine.
15:45You're fine.
15:46Okay, okay.
15:46So you did Con Man, which is created by your Firefly co-star, Alan Tudyk.
15:52Yes.
15:52And you also executive produced that, I believe.
15:55Yes, I did.
15:55And it's loosely based on his own experiences at comic conventions.
15:59And you've been to many comic conventions.
16:01And I also want to add that when I was working at One Life to Live in 1994 through 97,
16:08right
16:08up the street on Columbus at Harry's Burritos, Alan Tudyk was my waiter.
16:12Really?
16:12Yeah.
16:13For three years.
16:14Did you tell him that?
16:15We figured it out later on.
16:17That's crazy.
16:18Did you tip him well?
16:19Apparently, yes.
16:20Yes.
16:21I hope so.
16:21Yeah.
16:22Yeah.
16:22Good.
16:23Yeah.
16:23Yeah.
16:23Good.
16:23Yeah.
16:24But no, but like, what is the weirdest, I always wonder for someone like yourself, like,
16:28what is the strangest comic con moment you've ever had?
16:32You know, when someone makes a comment and you think they're joking, so you make a joke.
16:39Yeah.
16:40And then you realize they weren't joking and they haven't drawn the line between fantasy and reality.
16:46That becomes awkward.
16:49Can you give us an example?
16:51I mean.
16:51I mean, no names.
16:53Yeah, no names.
16:54I can't think of an example off the top.
16:57I'll tell you one odd thing that happened to me.
16:59I was signing autographs.
17:01I signed an autograph for somebody.
17:03It was kind of like an riser.
17:05They moved off to the side.
17:06Now I'm signing autographs for more people.
17:07And I hear this first person saying, Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, you should, you know that nude
17:11scene you did in Firefly?
17:13Yeah.
17:13I used a scene where I was naked in the desert.
17:15Yes.
17:16I'm sorry.
17:17I'm just trying to get to, but do you remember that nude scene?
17:19Yes, I remember.
17:20What was your name?
17:21Okay, good.
17:21You should do more of those.
17:25That's really creepy, sir.
17:27This is like 50-something-year-old gentleman.
17:29Oh.
17:30Yeah.
17:31It gets a little odd at that point.
17:32It gets a little odd, yeah.
17:32It's like, maybe things you don't yell out across the room.
17:36And he did anyway.
17:37There you go.
17:38Were there any, like, Castle recently ended?
17:42Wait, wait, wait.
17:43What?
17:43What?
17:43I know.
17:44I know.
17:44What did you hear?
17:44I heard that it ended.
17:47It's true.
17:47Two years ago, yeah.
17:48It's true.
17:48What was your just favorite memory working on that?
17:53It could be just...
17:54My favorite memory working...
17:55So I worked eight years.
17:57For every 42 minutes you watched, I did eight days of, like, 14 to 16-hour days.
18:05What was my favorite day of all those days?
18:08Easy question.
18:08Super easy.
18:09Super easy.
18:10Now, like, we only have softballs here, Bill.
18:11I can tell you, though, when I started that...
18:15We filmed that pilot right here in town.
18:17Right.
18:18We filmed the pilot here.
18:19And I remember there was a day, I took everybody out.
18:22We did this solve a mystery thing down in the lower end of town.
18:27We were solving some kind of mystery play.
18:30You know, you're running around town trying to put pieces together.
18:32It was a lot of fun.
18:34And Molly Quinn, it started to rain.
18:37She was running around jumping in puddles.
18:38She's this skinny little 14-year-old kid jumping in puddles.
18:42And then the last season of Castle, I'm looking...
18:45She's a 23-year-old woman.
18:47And...
18:48Right?
18:49It makes you feel a little old.
18:51But I'm going, oh, my God.
18:52This kid literally grew up in front of my eyes.
18:55What is that like?
18:57I used to be the son.
18:59When I started, I was the son.
19:00There was somebody important on the show, and I was their son.
19:04Now, I'm the person on the show, and I have kids.
19:07That is weird.
19:08Now, on my new show, my kids are off to college.
19:10Are they going to play a role in the show?
19:12I'm technically the age that I could be a grandfather.
19:14That's actually one thing that I really...
19:16Going back to the rookie that I'm looking forward to seeing is...
19:19Both your relationship to your ex-wife.
19:20So that's a big thing.
19:21Like, in the show, he is you, your character, and is recently divorced.
19:26Yes.
19:27Gets into a bank robbery.
19:29Yes.
19:30Decides to become a cop.
19:31How will his extended family, his ex-wife, and his kids play a role in the story moving forward?
19:37He does have a relationship with his son.
19:39They're still very, very tight.
19:42He's already been in an episode, so we'll see him soon.
19:46I'm not sure how the ex-wife is going to play into that.
19:48We'll see, though.
19:49I'm very interested to see how that plays out.
19:52Cool.
19:53Because, you know, if you meet your ex, and they're with somebody else, you would hope either your hair looks
19:58great, or you have a gun.
20:00Yeah.
20:01Or both.
20:03One thing that there's actually...
20:05I don't want to spoil the relationship in the middle of this movie, the show, but let's talk about Santa
20:10Clarita Diet.
20:11Let's do it.
20:12So, you play a disembodied head on the show.
20:15Yeah.
20:15I started as a body.
20:17You started as a body.
20:17Full entire person.
20:18Full entire person.
20:19Got killed off in the very first episode.
20:21Yes.
20:21And now you're a disembodied head.
20:23What is it like going on to those, onto the set, and be like, all right, I'm going to just
20:27be a talking head?
20:28Trick question.
20:28They filmed everything beforehand with a dummy head.
20:34Really?
20:35I came in and for a day and a half filmed my half of the scenes as a zombie head,
20:42but in a contraption that doesn't allow you to move your head.
20:45And apparently moving my head is my crutch when I'm acting.
20:48Apparently I move my head a lot.
20:51You played Caleb on Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
20:53Also true.
20:54Also true, yes.
20:55I'm glad we're confirming all these things as facts.
20:58Um, what do you have to, uh, looking back on that character, especially now with toxic masculinity, how do you
21:07reflect back on that character?
21:09Especially now with toxic masculinity?
21:11Like in the Me Too era and that conversation that's going on right now.
21:15This is, this is the first that I've ever been asked this question.
21:18I try.
21:19I, first of all, it was my first villain I've ever played.
21:23Right.
21:24Uh, usually I, I've played jerks, but not like full on.
21:28Yeah.
21:28I'm going to murder you villain.
21:30Yeah.
21:30Um, as far as a comment on the Me Too era, I would say, uh, it's an appropriate comment because
21:39he was obviously a misogynist.
21:42He was obviously anti-women and then he was split up from the middle.
21:47Full on, full on, that's how he was killed from his manhood up.
21:52Yeah.
21:52I think that's somehow apropos.
21:55Um, we have, we're going to go, be going to, we have five fan questions, but before we do that,
22:00I have to ask this question.
22:01Oh.
22:02Can I take the sky from you?
22:04No, you can't.
22:07Sorry, it's in the song.
22:09All right, let's go to our first fan question over here.
22:13Um, hi, do you see yourself playing...
22:14First of all, what's your name?
22:15Uh, hi, I'm Camilla.
22:16Nice to meet you, Camilla.
22:17Nice to meet you.
22:18Um, do you see yourself playing historical character?
22:21And if so, which famous person would you like to play?
22:24Historical characters, which famous person would I like to play?
22:31Um, Captain Cook, because that would mean I would get to be on a ship and I would get to
22:36go to the Hawaiian Islands, the, you know, the Tahitian Islands.
22:38He did a lot of that stuff.
22:40It's all about where you're filming, right?
22:41Yeah, that's, it's all about location, location, location.
22:43And then, and then in the end, he gets his head cut off.
22:46You're all about getting your head cut off, aren't you?
22:48I'm all about it.
22:48Oh, yeah.
22:49Let's do what you know.
22:50Let's go to our next question over there.
22:54Here he comes.
22:55And your name is?
22:57Yes, my name is Lawrence, and it's always a pleasure, Captain.
23:00Nice to meet you, as you were a soldier.
23:01Yes.
23:02Um, you mentioned about your dedication to your work and the advice Bob Woods gave you about keeping work sacred.
23:08What allows you to maintain that respect and humility for your work as you have all your success in your
23:13career?
23:15Uh, good question.
23:16Listen, I, uh, I'll be the first guy to tell you I'm very, very lucky.
23:20People say, you pick these amazing roles, and that, it might appear that way, but I don't pick roles.
23:25I think now I'll do sci-fi.
23:27I think now I'll do a horror.
23:29You don't pick.
23:30You have your hand out, and somebody gives you a job.
23:32I've been very fortunate, um, that I've been able to, uh, perform, uh, these roles that, uh, resonate with people.
23:41Um, I appreciate them as, I think, more than anyone else does, because not only am I a fan, but
23:50I also get to participate.
23:52Uh, so I, I, I revere my work because I, I enjoy it so much.
23:58And we appreciate you all the better for it.
24:00Thank you, Lawrence.
24:01What, what's the, uh, real quick for the next question, what's the role that resonated with you the most?
24:07Uh, for different reasons?
24:08I will say, uh, Malcolm Reynolds.
24:10It was my first shot at a lead role.
24:14I, I came off of three years of doing intense work on daytime.
24:18I had a, uh, I was nominated for a daytime Emmy.
24:21I came out to Los Angeles, and people say, he's good, but we don't know if he can handle a
24:25lead.
24:26Like, well, no one will until you do give me that opportunity.
24:30And Joss Whedon was the first guy to say, you're the guy.
24:34That's awesome.
24:35Uh, our next fan question is also behind me.
24:39All right.
24:39And you are?
24:41Chris.
24:41Chris.
24:42Nice to meet you, Chris.
24:42Nice to meet you, too.
24:44How do you prepare for the roles you're given to on movies or TV shows?
24:48How do I prepare?
24:49Well, first of all, uh, I read it front to back.
24:52I try to determine what my part of the story is.
24:56I think people make a mistake.
24:57They come in and they say, this is my chance to shine.
24:59It's not your chance to shine.
25:01It's one scene.
25:02It's one piece of a day.
25:03It's your character.
25:04It's whatever character you're playing.
25:06It's five minutes in his day.
25:07It's not a shine moment.
25:09It's a character moment.
25:10I think, uh, preparing and I think being pleasant to be around.
25:14Thank you.
25:15You're the best.
25:16Thank you.
25:16You're very pleasant, too.
25:18All right.
25:18Our next question is coming up here.
25:22And your name is?
25:23Sharon.
25:24Hi, Sharon.
25:25Hi.
25:25You have police advisors on your show.
25:28Were there any anecdotes or stories that they told you that kind of shocked you, you weren't
25:33aware of?
25:34All of them.
25:35All of them.
25:35Let me tell you, we trained with some wonderful guys, Chick and Bob are their names.
25:41They are amazing guys.
25:43And they'll say, this is the rule.
25:44This is why we do this.
25:47This is to prevent this one thing.
25:49This one time a guy did this.
25:51And it's a crazy, nutty story.
25:54And now they have a procedure to make sure that never happens again.
25:58And all the stories would kind of, they would curl your hair.
26:01But there's a code you get where they'll say, hey, we need you over here for a domestic dispute.
26:08We need you over here because there's been a traffic accident.
26:10There's a code for everything.
26:12But there's a code that says, we don't know what's going on.
26:14We have no idea.
26:15They need the police, but we don't know why.
26:17So you have no idea what you're coming up on.
26:21And apparently one time they came up, this is horrible to hear.
26:24They came up on a dead body in a car that had been there for over a week after a
26:32suicide.
26:33Someone had put a gun underneath and blown off everything above the chin.
26:37Well, on that note, right?
26:39Let's go to our next fan question.
26:42We have one more.
26:45Do you have any more fun stories like that?
26:47There's a ton of those.
26:47Oh, I bet.
26:48That was the, that was the, like, the tamed down one.
26:51That was a, really?
26:52Oh my God, it gets worse.
26:54Go on.
26:54I'm telling you.
26:55They got all these kooky stories that all start with, so this guy gets killed.
26:58Oh boy.
26:59Hello, and you are?
27:00Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.
27:02Not at all.
27:03I'm Rebecca.
27:04Hi, Rebecca.
27:04And I was just wondering if there were any roles that you ever turned down that you regret turning down?
27:11No.
27:12I don't remember, no, no, I don't remember turning down any roles that I thought would be amazing.
27:18There's plenty of roles I tried out for that I didn't get, and I regret that.
27:24Such as?
27:26I was in a, I was actually in a meeting for a role, and they said, yeah, they're, they're going
27:30to think,
27:30they're thinking about offering this role to, like, a Tom Hiddleston type, you know, like a Bradley Cooper.
27:36And I said, listen, you could hire Tom Hiddleston or Bradley Cooper for your movie,
27:43and yes, their celebrity and their fame is going to bring more people and thus more money to your movie,
27:50yes.
27:50But also, on the other hand, they're probably going to do a really, really, really good job.
27:55So.
27:59What's the weirdest, what's like the one role that's just really the one you're like, wow, I did that?
28:07It's the weirdest one.
28:08Yeah, I don't know about weird, but I, the wow, I was, I was in Saving Private Ryan.
28:13Yes, you were.
28:14I was the wrong Ryan.
28:16When they tell the kid his brothers are dead, and he cries, and they go, oh, wrong guy.
28:19Yeah.
28:19That was 25-year-old me.
28:21What was that?
28:22What was it like?
28:23Yeah, please.
28:24A super-duper nerve-wracking.
28:26All I had to do was cry, and I was really good at it.
28:28Man, when I was, when we were in seventh grade, my friends and I on the bus would go, okay,
28:31who can cry first?
28:32Go.
28:34And whoever could cry first was the winner.
28:36So it was like, oh, I could do this.
28:38This is easy.
28:39I was so nervous, I couldn't cry.
28:40I was really tense.
28:42And there's Mr. Tom Hanks.
28:44We call him Oscar Tom.
28:45And then Ted Danson right beside me.
28:47I'm a huge Cheers fan.
28:49There's all these guys, super big movie stars.
28:51They're all just watching you, and I couldn't, I'm dry.
28:53I'm like a popcorn fart.
28:55Just nothing.
28:58And Mr. Steven Spielberg pulls me aside and says, what I hear you saying is, wherever it is inside, it's
29:05not coming out.
29:06But you're at least acting it.
29:07But tell me about your backstory.
29:09So I did.
29:09And then he said, okay, it sounds like a good, he tweaked my backstory a little bit to make it
29:12super duper sad.
29:13I started crying, listening to him talk.
29:16He goes, you look ready.
29:17Let's roll these cameras, shoot this on a .22, and action.
29:21Wow.
29:21That was it.
29:23That's crazy.
29:23Then I cried 17 times in a row.
29:25And then they said, hey, we only needed the first 13.
29:28You can stop crying.
29:31I haven't rewatched that film since I first saw it.
29:34It's one of those, it's like, it's so powerful and so heartbreaking.
29:38I have friends from high school who call me up and go, you were in that movie?
29:45That's it.
29:46That's it.
29:46All right.
29:47You know what?
29:48Everybody did a really amazing job here today.
29:50You guys, we're very proud of you, especially you and you over there.
29:53All right.
29:54So make sure to watch The Rookie premiering tomorrow night on ABC at 10 p.m.
30:00starring this handsome man right here, Nathan Fillion.
30:03Oh, yeah, I know that one guy there.
30:06Thank you so much, and we'll see you soon.
30:10I know.
30:10It's just so cool.
