>>> WE ARE HAVING A GREAT TIME WITH KURT RUSSELL THIS MORNING.
HE'S BACK ONCE AGAIN PLAYING THE MYSTERIOUS MR. NOBODY IN "THE
FATE OF THE FURIOUS." >> HE'S A FEDERAL AGENT WHO
OPERATES OUTSIDE THE LAW. WHEN HE TRIES TO CONVINCE DWAYNE
JOHNSON'S CHARACTER TO JOIN HIS TEAM, HE REALIZES HIS NEW
PROTEGE HAS A LOT TO LEARN. >> WHAT ABOUT YOUR DAUGHTER?
>> IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DO IT FOR YOUR COUNTRY, AT LEAST DO IT
FOR YOUR KID. >> OH, BIG MISTAKE, KID.
>> HOLD ON. HE'S STILL WORKING FROM THE
MANUAL. HE DOESN'T REALLY KNOW THE
RULES. COME ON, GIVE HIM A BREAK.
>> GIVE ME A BREAK. >> LOU.
APPRECIATE IT. >> IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU, NOBODY.
>> YOU, TOO. >> YOU KNOW, HE'S A REALLY NICE
AND INTERESTING GUY, DWAYNE. >> IN FACT, HE'S GOING TO BE
WITH US TOMORROW. >> HE'S A COOL GUY.
HAVING HAD -- WE HAD AN INTERESTING BACKGROUND, HE
PLAYED PRO FOOTBALL IN COLLEGE. IF RARE CONVERSATIONS YOU HAVE
WITH AN ATHLETE, YOU USUALLY HAVE THEM LATER IN LIFE, BUT THE
HONESTY WAS REALLY IMPRESSIVE AND I LEARNED A LOT.
HE'S ONE SHARP COOKIE. A GOOD GUY, TOO.
>> YOUR CHARACTER -- >> I DO LOVE HIM.
>> THAT'S OFFICIAL. THIS IS NOT A KNOCK AGAINST ZAC.
>> I JUST DON'T KNOW ZAC. I'M SURE I WOULD LOVE ZAC.
>> AFTER WATCHING THIS MOVIE, MR. NOBODY, IN A SENSE, EVEN
THOUGH IT'S NOT THE -- YOU'RE NOT THE STAR OF THE MOVIE, YOU
DRIVE THIS MOVIE. YOUR CHARACTER DRIVES THIS
MOVIE. >> IT DOES COME IN AND OUT AT
THE STRANGEST TIMES AND SORT OF, IT'S LIKE WE WERE JUST SAYING,
HE'S A CHARACTER, THAT WE'RE SIMILAR, WHEN I LEAN OVER AND
SAY, WAIT A MINUTE, IS THIS -- I WANT TO CATCH UP TO SPEED.
BUT MR. NOBODY DOES THAT FOR YOU.
HE COMES IN, IT'S ALMOST LIKE HE TURNS TO YOU AND SAYS, ARE YOU
CONFUSED? HE WEIGHS THINGS OUT FOR YOU AND
SAYS, THIS IS WHERE WE ARE GOING.
IT IS EXPOSITION. IT'S A CHALLENGE AS AN ACTOR, I
HAVE TO SAY. BUT IT'S A LOT OF FUN.
IT'S FUN TO WATCH HOW THE CHARACTER FITS INTO THE STORY
FOR THE MAIN CHARACTERS THAT YOU'RE WATCHING.
YEAH. >> THE FACT THAT HE ACTUALLY
AVOIDS A LOT OF THE HEAVY LIFTING.
>> RIGHT. >> TOTALLY.
>> ISN'T THAT THE PLAN? YOU PUT IN THAT REQUEST?
>> THAT'S CALLED WISDOM. >> SMART MAN.
>> YOU KNOW, I DO HEAVY LIFTING IN "GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY."
>> I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS TO COME OUT.
>> AND YOU ARE CHRIS PRATT'S FATHER?
>> YES. THIS IS A BROAD CHARACTER, OKAY?
>> YOU WOULD LIKE THAT. >> AND HE'S CREATED HIS OWN
WORLD. AND EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM IS
CREATION. SO YEAH, IT WAS A GREAT -- THESE
TWO THINGS BACK-TO-BACK WERE REALLY FUN TO DO BACK-TO-BACK
AND HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRY TO CREATE CHARACTERS THAT PEOPLE
WILL HAVE A GREAT TIME WITH AND BE MEMORABLE.
>> HOW LONG DID IT TAKE YOU TO GROW THAT BEARD?
>> NOT TOO LONG. >> THAT WAS A HEAD OF HAIR.
>> HE'S JUNGLE BOY. I FORGOT.
>> I DON'T KNOW, A COUPLE MONTHS, I GUESS.
BUT I GUESS THESE DAYS, LATELY, IT'S JUST BEEN MUSTACHES AND
BEARDS AND -- I SAVED THAT FOR LATER IN MY CAREER.
I DIDN'T DO A LOT OF IT EARLY ON.
>> I LOVE IT. AND CAN WE OFFER CONGRATULATIONS
TO YOU, BY THE WAY, WE HAVE NOT MENTIONED THIS, BUT YOU AND
GOLDIE HAWN CELEBRATING YOUR 34th ANNIVERSARY.
34 YEARS. >> ALL THAT HAND GOES TO GOLDIE.
CONGRATULATIONS, HONEY. I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID IT.
>> DID YOU DO ANYTHING SPECIAL? >> I HAVE A -- WELL, WHAT COMES
WITH AGE IS ALZHEIMER, I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT I DID.
NO, WE HAD A REGULAR DAY. SO, LOOK, WE HAVE A LOT OF FUN
IN OUR LIVES AND PULLING OUT SPECIAL DAYS.
I'M SURE WE DID SOMETHING SPECIAL BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER
WHAT IT WAS. >> YOU HAVE BEEN SUCH A DELIGHT.
ISN'T THAT GREAT? >> WE DON'T WANT IT TO END.
