00:00Hollywood casting can be very straight.
00:02Roof Man is based on a true story,
00:04so I wanted the Isle of Misfit Toys.
00:06Is that what we are?
00:07Yeah.
00:08Yes.
00:09Casting's like making a mixtape.
00:11You get to put all your favorite songs,
00:12and everyone in this movie are like my favorite actors.
00:15I read it thinking, wow, Chan is going to crush this role.
00:19I was so scared to act with you.
00:20Come on.
00:21I was terrified.
00:22Well, you had a hard first scene coming in to all these women.
00:25I thought this was a singles brunch, not a supermodel brunch.
00:29Kirsten plays Lee.
00:31Lee is a single mother.
00:32She's got a little bit of a feisty southern lady in her.
00:35She was the North Star to the entire movie.
00:38One of the reasons that I wanted to work with both of you
00:41is that it was clear that the most important thing to Jeff
00:44was family.
00:45I know that that's also true for both of you,
00:47and there's not a way to fake that.
00:49Peter and I, I don't know why we had a deep connection
00:51immediately.
00:52I love him.
00:53Juno came in for like literally a day.
00:54I had been wanting to work with Juno for so long.
00:57She's so good.
00:58Lakeith has this quiet, innate thing.
01:00I just wanted to impress him.
01:02It's like the perfect dynamic, and it shows.
01:04You've got to leave tomorrow.
01:05Can I just say, oh, how?
