Hi, fellows, having a good day.
Yes, Zehra, thank you very much.
Yeah, I was going to say audience used to audiences
that used to send you, too, in the state of inebriation, shall we say.
So here in a very sober.
I know I can tell you
this right now- Ed is drunk because he texted me going,
you know, I like to get drunk before any kind of press thing.
So he had he had Everclear, he told me a gallon of Everclear.
Anyway, congratulations on the movie.
I mean, I had so much fun with this film,
and that's mostly due to Zach's Ron.
Sorry Ed ... you make. Sorry.
And do you mind leaving the interview?
Oh, yeah. I'll see you guys later.
Oh, so you make the perfect robot.
Is this the kind of character that you've always dreamt of playing?
Yes. Requires no emotional range, and there's no.
But it's it's a perfectly straight boys, of course, it's the perfect role for Zach.
I am I'm you know,
Ed's kind of right, because that's the weirdest thing
about this thing, is that it was I am playing a robot
who you would think, OK, monotone, but there need to be
some leaking of emotion here and there, just a tad.
And sometimes I wasn't good at it.
And luckily, the producers were patient with me, and I think we found it.
But yeah, it is fun to to to work
on these movies that it is that you don't have to get up as early.
You don't get up early.
There's no makeup back on track for a second.
I just want to I do want to say like this, the character of Ron is
it's kind of magic.
You did a magic trick, Zach, because he is like this little like impersonal robot.
And yet there he is, so warm and
and there's so much emotional content to this little.
This little robot, so kudos to you. Thanks, Ed.
Ed, you're going to interview me after this. OK,
Ed, you play Barney's dad and he comes across a
the bit analog and a little bit clueless to his child's needs.
A, it seemed cheeky here.
Is there any inspiration taken from your own parenting skills?
From my own parenting skills, not so much, but my own parents.
Yes, absolutely.
I know, I, I think that yes.
Graham, my character is a very heightened version of of me.
I stumble through parenthood and I think as many people do,
I think trying to do the right thing,
trying to make the right choice, is trying to say the right things.
And often often just kind of dropping the ball or doing it wrong. And,
you know, I think and parent guilt is the thing that that I know
so many people grapple with, including me and including Graham in this movie.
And so it's it's a yes, there's a lot to unpack there.
But really what I think is important is that Graham is good.
He's a good dad. He cares and he loves his son.
And even if he's a little tone deaf here and there,
you know what no one's ask you about.
And I wonder if anybody else if it stuck out.
His wardrobe is bizarre.
Oh, it's pajamas.
It's no, it's a wardrobe for for the modern era
because he's wearing pajamas on the bottom and then at a like a work shirt
and a tie furfur, his video conference that went over my head. OK, got it.
But you're right.
It is very weird. Yes.
OK, oh, well, I've got to leave it there.
I'm afraid I could've done this or not.
But thank you for your time.
Thank you so much.
Thank you. Thank you.
