00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:02,878

2
00:00:02,879 --> 00:00:04,479
yesterday and went on a little walk

3
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,599
today as well. And y'all are very tall

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,159
here. I was I found myself kind of like

5
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,079
I was I found myself kind of like
usually I'm kind of on the taller side,

6
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,799
but I'd walk down the the street and I'd

7
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,630
be like

8
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,679
just trying to fit in. Um but so seeing

00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,079
the crowd, it's it's very high. Thank

00:00:26,080 --> 00:00:29,598
you. Anyways, I digress. There are many

11
00:00:29,599 --> 00:00:31,839
things to be intimidated in a good way

12
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:35,599
about this part of the world. Um, just

13
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,519
having a brief chat with Jen backstage

14
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,959

15
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:42,238
just so beautiful.

16
00:00:42,239 --> 00:00:42,639
>> Yeah.

17
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,759
>> Um, it is uh I don't know if I should

18
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,599
say this, but uh when I came here many

19
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,038
years ago to work, I described it as the

20
00:00:53,039 --> 00:00:55,919
best kept secret in Europe. Woo.

21
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,599
>> So, will you all all do us all a favor

22
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,439
and don't tell anyone?

23
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,519
>> Yeah. [laughter]

24
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:04,319
>> It's a good city.

25
00:01:04,320 --> 00:01:05,839
>> We might be your new neighbors.

26
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,559
>> Yeah, we are.

27
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,559
If if anybody wants to let us live with

28
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:16,310
them in this area,

29
00:01:16,320 --> 00:01:19,438
>> she's great. I'm stinky. So, I'd invite

30
00:01:19,439 --> 00:01:20,478
her. I'll sneak in.

31
00:01:20,479 --> 00:01:21,919
>> They're really good with laundry.

32
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:23,599
>> I'm good with laundry. I do laundry.

33
00:01:25,759 --> 00:01:27,919
Yeah. Okay. You sound like a Scandinavian man.

34
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,639
Okay. You sound like a Scandinavian man.
I guess so. I guess so. Yeah. No,

35
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,559
listen. Welcome. It's a great honor. I

36
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,999
just want you to know that the sun

37
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,438
always shines like this, right?

38
00:01:37,439 --> 00:01:39,199
>> You think we're used to it by now?

39
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,399
>> Yeah. Yeah. Now, listen. You two met

40
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,639
each other and you've worked together.

41
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,639
Uh I'm real curious about this. You have

42
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:52,559
to tell me. What's it like as a married

43
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,438
couple or when you first got together

44
00:01:55,439 --> 00:02:00,798
and then working together on a set or or

45
00:02:00,799 --> 00:02:02,798
do you do you are you able to leave it

46
00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:06,319
alone when you

47
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,118
Great great questions. I guess I'll I'll

48
00:02:09,119 --> 00:02:11,519
start. Uh, we did, I think a lot of

49
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,679
y'all might know, but we met on season 4

50
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,240
of Supernatural.

51
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,079
[cheering] Um, and we, it was great because there's

52
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,999
Um, and we, it was great because there's
it's really difficult to to hide who you

53
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,999
truly are if you're filming a TV show

54
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:29,119
together. >> Yeah.

55
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,318
>> Yeah.
>> Because the days are so long. Um, and

56
00:02:32,319 --> 00:02:34,318
you just don't by the end of the week,

57
00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:36,238
you don't have energy for [\h__\h] to

58
00:02:36,239 --> 00:02:37,759
pretend to be like, "Hey, I'm really

59
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,999
nice." or hey, I'm really sweet because

60
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,238
you're tired, your body hurts, you

61
00:02:42,239 --> 00:02:43,839
haven't slept,

62
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,159
>> and you see how people interact with

63
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,238
other people. Uh not just how they speak

64
00:02:48,239 --> 00:02:49,839
to you, but how they speak to the crew,

65
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,518
how they speak to the assistants, how

66
00:02:51,519 --> 00:02:53,999
they speak to the directors. And so, we

67
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,839
just met as friends for a couple of

68
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,919
months. And um I know it's not obvious

69
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:02,479
if you look at her, but this girl can

70
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,919
eat. Uh

71
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:08,318
she liked she likes [laughter] She liked

72
00:03:08,319 --> 00:03:10,399
sweet potato fries and so I convinced

73
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:11,759
her that I would take her out to lunch

74
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,079
and buy her sweet potato fries. Like

75
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,958
sweet potato fries.

76
00:03:16,959 --> 00:03:17,919
>> It's true.

77
00:03:17,920 --> 00:03:21,359
>> Oh my god. So I'm a Capricorn.

78
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,999
Jared is a a Cancer.

79
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,399
I love to work.

80
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,559
>> What are you trying to say?

81
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,479
>> Well, I'm saying you The question was

82
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:31,199
what's it like?

83
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,158
>> Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, it's me

84
00:03:34,159 --> 00:03:36,399
talking a lot about work as we're going

85
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,279
to bed, thinking about ideas, and he's

86
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,839
like ready to cry because he's like,

87
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:48,149
>> "That's not in the beginning. That's now

88
00:03:48,159 --> 00:03:50,158
you skipped from us meeting to like

89
00:03:50,159 --> 00:03:52,798
>> Oh, the meeting like meeting.

90
00:03:52,799 --> 00:03:56,238
>> Oh, well, you were very frustrating, but

91
00:03:56,239 --> 00:03:58,719
you were very cute.

92
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,470
>> How was I frustrated?

93
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,279
No, we Yes. to to sort of echo what

94
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,759
Jared was saying, we met as friends and

95
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,798
became really great friends and we read

96
00:04:10,799 --> 00:04:14,399
books together and he made me laugh a

97
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,879
lot, which he constantly makes our whole

98
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,358
family do. Um,

99
00:04:19,359 --> 00:04:21,599
and and yeah, I I always joke that our

100
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,799
first relationship was through work. And

101
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,242
so it's so nice to continue

102
00:04:27,243 --> 00:04:29,198
[clears throat] that and be able to work

103
00:04:29,199 --> 00:04:31,198
together in so many different areas of

104
00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:33,119
our lives, which is really special.

105
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,719
>> Yeah. And you asked a great question

106
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,279
about if we're able to put it away.

107
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:37,679
>> Yeah.

108
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:38,879
>> Um

109
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:39,918
>> clearly not

110
00:04:39,919 --> 00:04:42,399
>> at times. I think she she's a very very

111
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,399
hard worker and I work hard as well I

112
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:49,279
suppose. Um but at times um but I think

113
00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:51,279
it's it can either be a great thing to

114
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:53,839
have two entertainment industry people

115
00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:54,719
be married.

116
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:55,119
>> Yeah.

117
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,439
>> Um or a terrible thing because you don't

118
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,439
understand each other's lives.

119
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,519
>> Yeah. You know, it's it's funny because

120
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,279
since she's an actress as well and she

121
00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:08,399
understands, I can [\h__\h] about uh

122
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,038
filming until 2 a.m. where, you know, if

123
00:05:11,039 --> 00:05:12,399
you were to sit me down and be like,

124
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,519
"Hey, would you love to do a job where

125
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,519
you can be on TV show and build a

126
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,559
character and talk to fans and family

127
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:21,918
from around the world about it?" The

128
00:05:21,919 --> 00:05:23,999
answer would be hell yes. But she gets

129
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,439
it and I get it when she explains the

130
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,038
same. Well, and I think we have a really

131
00:05:27,039 --> 00:05:28,799
good balance in that because we could

132
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,719
empathize and understand each other and

133
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,599
also look at it from different angles of

134
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,599
what about thinking about it like this

135
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,679
or or just holding space and listening

136
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,119
like what Jared's saying and being able

137
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:40,959
to vent and then have the other person

138
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,119
say, >> you know,

139
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:43,519
>> you know,
>> yeah.

140
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:43,918
>> Yeah.

141
00:05:43,919 --> 00:05:45,999
>> Well, I mean there is an advantage as

142
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,519
you you're both in the same business,

143
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:48,719
but um

144
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,918
>> my experience was that uh it was real

145
00:05:51,919 --> 00:05:53,198
fun in the beginning.

146
00:05:53,199 --> 00:05:57,279
>> Yeah. Uh, and then I realized I was

147
00:05:57,280 --> 00:05:59,038
married to an actress.

148
00:05:59,039 --> 00:06:01,119
>> Yeah. God, I don't think about it

149
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,198
because I figure my poor partner was

150
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:05,519
married to or rather going out with an

151
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,079
actor as well. And that actually

152
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,719
sometimes it was nice to have someone

153
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,038
from another industry or another, you

154
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:14,719
know. >> Sure. I think

155
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,399
>> Sure. I think
>> I think we bring different things though

156
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,318
to the table. I mean, I've taken a lot

157
00:06:18,319 --> 00:06:20,879
of time off. uh we got married really

158
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,399
quickly and had kids and um that has

159
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,119
been my main focus and now that our kids

160
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,719
are at a good age uh we're starting I'm

161
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,999
starting to get back uh a little bit in

162
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,079
dabbling more in acting and now we're

163
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,918
producing together which is also

164
00:06:37,919 --> 00:06:38,399
>> wow

165
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:42,399
>> wonderful to do as a as a mother because

166
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,839
it means that I don't have to be

167
00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:48,159
>> you know number a number on a call sheet

168
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,079
as uh you know, the way that Jared does.

169
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,999
So, it's it's a balance for us. We have

170
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,038
very unique perspectives and a really

171
00:06:55,039 --> 00:06:58,799
healthy way, I think, of communicating

172
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,959
on and off set.

173
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,959
>> I have a a question for you. Is there

174
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,239
anything about your characters, I'm now

175
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,879
thinking of the fan base,

176
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,279
uh, both from Supernatural and and

177
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,279
Walker, where you have to

178
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,198
take, um, whether you have to consider

179
00:07:19,199 --> 00:07:22,638
the fan base's uh, opinions as to how

180
00:07:22,639 --> 00:07:24,799
your character should react.

181
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,399
>> Interesting. Uh, that's a great

182
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,918
question. Um, I suppose I'll answer for

183
00:07:29,919 --> 00:07:33,359
myself. when I'm doing

184
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,439
whether it be Supernatural or Walker or

185
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,959
you know we're producing a movie that

186
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,559
Yeah. I go off to start shooting in a

187
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:43,119
week. Um we're producing

188
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:44,959
we're producing another we're producing

189
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,119
a TV show that we found out on our way

190
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,198
to the airport on Thursday that the

191
00:07:49,199 --> 00:07:52,710
writers.

192
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,799
>> So if I seem stressed out just kidding.

193
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,719
Um it's amazing. But I think as an

194
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,959
actor, I think I've landed at a spot

195
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,758
after 25 years that I if my character

196
00:08:03,759 --> 00:08:05,918
eats an apple on screen.

197
00:08:05,919 --> 00:08:08,079
>> I'm not saying Jared likes apples. I'm

198
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,079
not saying y'all better like apples. I'm

199
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,478
just playing my part of the story. I'm

200
00:08:12,479 --> 00:08:15,038
eating an apple. Whatever I do, I I do a

201
00:08:15,039 --> 00:08:17,439
lot of strange things on Supernatural a

202
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,119
lot. Uh you see the show. Uh, I mean, so

203
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,878
if I'm drinking demon blood or

204
00:08:24,879 --> 00:08:28,399
helping my brother Dean kill my wife,

205
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,359
uh, or playing Lucifer or anything in

206
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,958
between, I kind of have found peace

207
00:08:34,959 --> 00:08:37,439
knowing that that's just what Sam was

208
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,439
doing at that point in his life.

209
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:39,759
>> Yeah.

210
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,918
>> And so let the audience and that's

211
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:44,879
something about art or creativity is is

212
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,278
it's it's open for interpretation for

213
00:08:47,279 --> 00:08:48,879
the audience. Mhm. [clears throat]

214
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,599
>> Well, good. Um, that's a relief. So, you

215
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,319
can sleep well at night. But sometimes I

216
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:59,199
didn't say that. No, but um, uh, we're

217
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:00,639
going to move on to open it up to

218
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,479
questions from the audience which are

219
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,799
gagging to answer what questions, but

220
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,958
just as an actor, I'm thinking my fan

221
00:09:08,959 --> 00:09:12,398
base isn't is of people who like me

222
00:09:12,399 --> 00:09:16,639
killing people. Yeah, fair enough. Um um

223
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,879
so there sometimes I meet a kind of a a

224
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,999
really uh heads up in your face fan base

225
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,925
is going oh the way you killed that nun.

226
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:28,639
[laughter] Oh you're welcome.

227
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,439
Oh you're welcome.
>> Yeah. No so you don't thinking ah this

228
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,239
won't go down well with the you know

229
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,719
with the fans if I Yeah. I guess at

230
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,719
times it occurs to me and I'm like all

231
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,479
right well let's see what they say.

232
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:41,999
Again, often I don't know about you, but

233
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,518
often times some of the story lines or

234
00:09:45,519 --> 00:09:47,919
some of my characters actions that I did

235
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,518
think, "Oh, this is going to piss them

236
00:09:49,519 --> 00:09:50,958
off." Or, "Oh, this is going to make

237
00:09:50,959 --> 00:09:52,799
them smile." It's been the opposite

238
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,879
reaction by and large, like, "Oh,

239
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:55,919
they're going to like this." And they're

240
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,518
like, "Oh my god, when Sam did that,"

241
00:09:57,519 --> 00:09:59,119
or, "Oh my god, blah blah blah blah."

242
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,479
Cuz they didn't see it coming.

243
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:01,759
>> Yeah. Yeah.

244
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,919
>> So, I' I've learned just like it's sort

245
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,398
of like a if you came to our house and

246
00:10:06,399 --> 00:10:09,039
we cooked you dinner and you said, "Not

247
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,039
my favorite." like, "Okay, cool." Or

248
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,239
maybe you're just like, "Oh, we ordered

249
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:13,278
pizza." And you're like, "Oh, that's the

250
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:14,479
best pizza." Like, "Well, we got

251
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,799
delivery." But, um, so yeah, it's just

252
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,719
it's it's maybe your kids know what they

253
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,799
what you do for a living.

254
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:21,919
>> They do.

255
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:22,639
>> Yeah.

256
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,759
>> Yeah. I don't think they understand it

257
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:27,518
all. >> Yeah.

258
00:10:27,519 --> 00:10:30,239
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. Our oldest is 13. He wants

259
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,518
absolutely nothing to do with any of it.

260
00:10:33,519 --> 00:10:36,879
I would I really admire about him. And

261
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,159
I'm our two others are curious, but I

262
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,639
don't think they grasp

263
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,119
all of it and they don't generally like

264
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,319
to watch.

265
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:49,838
>> Even we tried to get our daughter to

266
00:10:49,839 --> 00:10:54,790
watch Gilmore Girls.

267
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,119
>> Like I think she was so confused as to

268
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,719
why her dad was

269
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,479
>> kissing another girl.

270
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:01,359
>> Kissing another girl.

271
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,439
>> We're not going to go there.

272
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,119
We are going to go there because now

273
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:09,919
it's over to you. So, uh, hands up, bud.

274
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,518
We have two people out there with

275
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,119
microphones and we've got about half an hour. So,

276
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,439
and we've got about half an hour. So,
good luck. I sit right here in the

277
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,439
aisle. There you go. These lights are no

278
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:20,479
joke, huh? Yeah,

279
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:21,838
>> I know. I'm hot.

280
00:11:21,839 --> 00:11:28,398
>> You are hot. >> Hi.

281
00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:33,119
>> Hi.
>> Hey. Hi. Hi. Hi. Oh [\h__\h] Uh this all

282
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,518
right good stuff right now. Bathroom's

283
00:11:35,519 --> 00:11:36,239
that way.

284
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,479
>> Okay. Yeah. Um hi, I'm Anna Maya. I'm

285
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,599
from uh Finland. Uh it's so nice to see

286
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,559
you guys up here in the north with us in

287
00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:49,759
Scandinavian Nordic countries. And uh I

288
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,559
was wondering um well, first of all, I

289
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:54,239
really want to hear more about your

290
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,159
producing work. Like what's it like

291
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:57,999
being a producer? What do you actually

292
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,559
do? and and do you have like do you have

293
00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:02,799
a produ production company and do you

294
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,359
have like uh plans what you want to do

295
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:06,159
with it?

296
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:10,398
>> Okay, that's three question. I

297
00:12:10,399 --> 00:12:13,039
I
>> I'll I'll go uh I'll kind of answer the

298
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,759
I'll say my part the last two first of

299
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,439
are we going to produce something or do

300
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:18,958
we have any plans? Yes. Right now we're

301
00:12:18,959 --> 00:12:21,199
doing a movie and a TV show. Uh it's

302
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,679
being a producer for me. She and I have

303
00:12:23,680 --> 00:12:24,719
talked about this but I'll let her

304
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,759
answer for herself as well. um the stuff

305
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,319
I didn't know. I knew that there was a

306
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,398
lot of work that went into making a TV

307
00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:35,599
show or marketing it or you know getting

308
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,479
it onto television. um having now been

309
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,679
in production together for over 5 years

310
00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:43,199
because we started producing Walker in

311
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:48,239
what 2019 2018 2019 the amount of work

312
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,679
that goes on before an actor ever hits

313
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:55,199
their marks and they call roll camera is

314
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,159
vast it is it's like a yall know the

315
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,879
iceberg like you see this much and

316
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,319
beneath the water all this and so I

317
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,159
chuckled to myself thinking about like

318
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,239
when I'm scene when I'm on set with

319
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,078
somebody and they're like, "Well, I just

320
00:13:10,079 --> 00:13:11,518
don't know about this line." And you're

321
00:13:11,519 --> 00:13:14,078
like, "Oh my god, we've had 75

322
00:13:14,079 --> 00:13:15,919
conversations about that line and it's

323
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,278
this is kind of what it has to be

324
00:13:17,279 --> 00:13:19,199
because of something else." So, just

325
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,039
like a a deep appreciation for for

326
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:25,119
writers, honestly. Um, and a lot of a

327
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,879
lot of what goes on just trying to make

328
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,838
sure that cuz filming days, they're fun,

329
00:13:29,839 --> 00:13:32,319
no doubt, but they can suck. They can

330
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:33,838
really really suck. You know, you're

331
00:13:33,839 --> 00:13:35,999
outside in the snow or you're outside in

332
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,398
100 degree weather or whatever that is

333
00:13:38,399 --> 00:13:40,479
40 Celsius. I don't know what you I

334
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:41,039
don't speak

335
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:42,719
>> covered in blood or

336
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,879
>> you're covered in blood. Yeah. But to

337
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:46,958
know all of the day that has to happen

338
00:13:46,959 --> 00:13:49,999
before that uh gives me an appreciation.

339
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,479
>> Yeah. Well, you got to stole my answer

340
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:53,999
to I was thinking the same thing. Just

341
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,958
the amount of appreciation that I have

342
00:13:56,959 --> 00:14:01,838
that goes way beyond the actors. I mean,

343
00:14:01,839 --> 00:14:04,319
I will never again be on set and

344
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,518
question a line because now knowing all

345
00:14:07,519 --> 00:14:09,599
the amount of conversations that went

346
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,239
into the jigsaw puzzle to making the

347
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:13,999
script what it is, it's it's quite

348
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,239
extraordinary. Um, and years and years

349
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:17,919
and years. And for us, we've also been

350
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,119
adapting books and that in itself, how

351
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,518
long it took the writer and to make sure

352
00:14:23,519 --> 00:14:26,479
that we uphold and honor their work to

353
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,679
then take it to the studios to then find

354
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,039
the right writers for that project to,

355
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,078
you know, ultimately make it into an

356
00:14:36,079 --> 00:14:39,039
actor's hand. It's just a marathon and

357
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,119
it's so beautiful and wild and so cool

358
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,679
and I love the puzzle of all of that.

359
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,638
But wow, what an appreciation. I hope

360
00:14:46,639 --> 00:14:47,838
that answers your question.

361
00:14:47,839 --> 00:14:50,879
>> Thank you. All three of them.

362
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:51,759
>> Your turn.

363
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:52,958

>> I'm I

Oh, sorry.

366
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:58,719
>> I was like, what do you mean?

367
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,278
>> She's right there.

368
00:15:01,279 --> 00:15:04,879
>> Yes. Someone at the front there.

369
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,638
>> Thank you all so much for standing and

370
00:15:06,639 --> 00:15:08,719

371
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:10,398
awesome. >> Yeah.

372
00:15:10,399 --> 00:15:11,439
>> Yeah.
>> Hi. Hi.

373
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,119
>> Um, I'm from Norway. So, thank you so

374
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,278
much for coming all this way. That's

375
00:15:17,279 --> 00:15:19,359
that's a

376
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:20,879
long treat for you guys.

377
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:22,078
>> Thank you.

378
00:15:22,079 --> 00:15:24,319
>> I'm just wondering cuz in season 2

379
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,239
Supernatural uh you played Demon S.

380
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:29,999
>> Yes.

381
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:30,719
>> Weird stuff.

382
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:32,799
>> That was so good. It like it gave me

383
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,719
really really good chills. And if you

384
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,679
>> I'm a creepy guy.

385
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,599
>> Jen noticed what she got into. Yeah.

386
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,398
Yeah. But if you got to play a villain

387
00:15:44,399 --> 00:15:46,719
again, what sort of dark, twisted

388
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,198
character would you like to take on?

389
00:15:49,199 --> 00:15:50,719
>> If I had to play a villain again?

390
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:51,198
>> Yeah.

391
00:15:51,199 --> 00:15:53,518
>> Um,

392
00:15:53,519 --> 00:15:57,278
I my favorite kind of villain,

393
00:15:57,279 --> 00:15:59,359
and this is a lot of villains. My

394
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,879
favorite kind of villain is a villain

395
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,559
that thinks they're doing the right

396
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,359
thing. Um,

397
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,999
I was a big James Bond fan growing up

398
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,479
and there were Yeah. Yeah. And there

399
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,319
there were James Bond movies where some

400
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:13,838
of the some of the villains were like,

401
00:16:13,839 --> 00:16:15,758
"I expect you to die, Mr. Bond." But,

402
00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:18,398
you know, like twist the mustache.

403
00:16:18,399 --> 00:16:20,078
And then some who just thought that they

404
00:16:20,079 --> 00:16:22,799
were doing what needed to be done to to

405
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:24,398
make their world into what their world

406
00:16:24,399 --> 00:16:26,879
was like. Those are really interesting

407
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,999
to me. Um,

408
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,518
this wasn't a villain, but I liked

409
00:16:31,519 --> 00:16:36,799
playing Soulless Sam a lot. Uh, yeah.

410
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,599
Y'all are messed up.

411
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,039
Uh, but someone who's trying to do the

412
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,439
best, someone who understands their

413
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,518
worldview and doesn't doesn't understand

414
00:16:47,519 --> 00:16:49,758
they're a villain. They're just living

415
00:16:49,759 --> 00:16:51,838
the life and the world they feel like

416
00:16:51,839 --> 00:16:53,999
they understand is funny. Did you have

417
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:58,470
an idea of a villain?

418
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,239
Okay. Like I would I I also would I mean

419
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,798
gosh see it's funny like when I think

420
00:17:04,799 --> 00:17:06,639
about the franchises that I love like

421
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,999
Lord of the Rings, like Star Wars, um

422
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,719
like James Bond, I'm knowing what we

423
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,879
know now about production and how it

424
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,279
happens. I'm always like, man, if I got

425
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,918
offered a role in a Star Wars thing or a

426
00:17:19,919 --> 00:17:21,838
James Bond thing or a Lord of the Rings

427
00:17:21,839 --> 00:17:24,798
thing, what would I say? Cuz for me, I

428
00:17:24,799 --> 00:17:27,438
can still watch those movies and be a

429
00:17:27,439 --> 00:17:29,519
viewer. like I can still be the

430
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,959
8-year-old version of Jared uh watching

431
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,678
Star Wars or James Bond or, you know,

432
00:17:35,679 --> 00:17:37,678
the high school kid reading Lord of the

433
00:17:37,679 --> 00:17:40,959
Rings. And so I'm like, man, if I if I

434
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,038
got an offer to do it, would I want to

435
00:17:43,039 --> 00:17:45,999
do it? Um, and if I did, I think I'd

436
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,159
want to play a Sith character. I think I

437
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,936
want to play. Yeah, that'd be fun.

438
00:17:50,937 --> 00:17:54,870
[music]

439
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:56,719
>> Yeah. Yeah, that's a good question

440
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,199
because you know Daniel Craig said that

441
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:00,959
about James Bond. He was in doubt

442
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,519
because he would be committed to uh

443
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,239
>> that for a long time and then afterwards

444
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,959
when he's still an actor, what will he

445
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,879
be allowed to do?

446
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,879
>> Oh yeah, right. Right. It's like playing

447
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:14,319
Superman or Batman. Are you always

448
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:15,279
Superman or Batman?

449
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,918
>> Yeah. Um is it your turn? Can we have

450
00:18:17,919 --> 00:18:19,359
another question to this this desperate

451
00:18:19,360 --> 00:18:20,399
woman on the front row?

452
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,439
>> Yes. That's very desperate.

453
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:24,879
I like it. Is she Yes. That's right.

454
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:29,918
You're holding a gun. >> Hello.

455
00:18:29,919 --> 00:18:30,719
>> Hello.
>> Hi.

456
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,999
>> Yes. I would like to ask um you

457
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,959
mentioned um the days when you film and

458
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,239
it's really late and you're really tired

459
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,359
and your body feels sore. Um I imagine

460
00:18:43,360 --> 00:18:44,959
that that's the time when the

461
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,759
psychological barriers of who you are

462
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,599
really like start to crumble down.

463
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:50,319
>> Yeah.

464
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,599
>> And I can't imagine myself in that

465
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,879
position. and actually um maintaining a

466
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,479
sense of my own identity. And you have

467
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,959
been with this particular show,

468
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,359
Supernatural, for years, huh?

469
00:19:05,360 --> 00:19:10,399
>> And I'm wondering how you manage to

470
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,558
compartmentalize like the show and anxiety from the show

471
00:19:16,559 --> 00:19:19,279
like the show and anxiety from the show
and your own sense of self.

472
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:20,879
>> Yeah, that's a difficult I love your

473
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,879
question. Thank you for uh asking for

474
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:24,399
those new here. She was kind of talking

475
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,719
about long days on set or um long days

476
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,279
in general. How do you compartmentalize

477
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:32,959
what you're doing, the character you're

478
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,359
playing compared to who you are, your

479
00:19:35,360 --> 00:19:38,319
own identity? And what I would say, my

480
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,038
instinct is to say, no matter what job

481
00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:44,798
you're in, whether you're an actor or a

482
00:19:44,799 --> 00:19:47,119
writer or you're not in the creative

483
00:19:47,120 --> 00:19:48,239
industry at all, you can be an

484
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,319
accountant, you can be a financial

485
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,239
manager, you can work at Starbucks, you

486
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,079
can there's 7-Elevens everywhere in

487
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,319
Denmark, you can be at 7-Eleven. We all

488
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,879
get to those places in our lives where

489
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,038
you're jetlagged. you've flown in from

490
00:20:01,039 --> 00:20:04,159
Norway or America or somewhere far away

491
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:05,839
and you're like, I don't have the energy

492
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,558
to be just like, hey, hey, hey. But I I

493
00:20:08,559 --> 00:20:10,879
would say you learn more about your

494
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,719
identity when um when you don't have the

495
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,119
energy to put on a facade. There's a

496
00:20:17,120 --> 00:20:19,678
great saying, uh, and I hope this

497
00:20:19,679 --> 00:20:23,999
translates, uh, smooth seas never made a

498
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,359
skilled sailor. So, let's get that.

499
00:20:27,360 --> 00:20:29,439
Yeah. A smooth seas never made a skilled

500
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,519
sailor. So, it's not the times that it's

501
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,199
nice and smooth that you learn the most

502
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:34,959
about yourself and become a skilled

503
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,359
sailor of your own ship. It's those

504
00:20:37,360 --> 00:20:39,119
rough times. So, just keep paying

505
00:20:39,120 --> 00:20:41,678
attention to those and you got this.

506
00:20:41,679 --> 00:20:41,999
>> Thank you.

507
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:48,230
>> I'm going to remember that. Listen,

508
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,719
he's been raising his hand.

509
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,558
>> Dan sang some glasses. Are you back

510
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:55,279
there? >> Okay, we're going.

511
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:56,319
>> Okay, we're going.
>> No, the guy. Oh, yeah.

512
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:57,439
>> We'll get you in a second. You have four

513
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,038
fingers on. You're next.

514
00:20:59,039 --> 00:21:01,678
>> Um, hi. My name is Emma. I'm from

515
00:21:01,679 --> 00:21:03,199
Ukraine. And first of all, I want to

516
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,839
thank thank you for your support.

517
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,319
>> Second of all, you guys inspire me so

518
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,959
much. Your outstanding performances in

519
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,359
Supernatural and other shows help me

520
00:21:13,360 --> 00:21:15,839
realize that I want to pursue acting.

521
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,999
>> So, uh, I want to ask you, do you have

522
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,870
any advice for me as a future actress?

523
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,798
>> Um, curiosity. I mean, I would, well,

524
00:21:26,799 --> 00:21:29,759
one, I would hone in on technique, which

525
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:31,199
is obviously really important, and if

526
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,918
you're an actor, and taking classes, and

527
00:21:33,919 --> 00:21:36,798
taking different classes, too, not just

528
00:21:36,799 --> 00:21:40,959
one. I think that was um I went to uh I

529
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,158
went to Tish and you study one technique

530
00:21:44,159 --> 00:21:46,798
which was great but what I realized is

531
00:21:46,799 --> 00:21:49,119
that you need I needed to branch out and

532
00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:51,038
learn a lot of different techniques that

533
00:21:51,039 --> 00:21:53,519
could stick with me cuz on set no one

534
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,479
cares about technique. So on set I felt

535
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,839
like I had to pull from different acting

536
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:01,678
coaches and techniques that could help

537
00:22:01,679 --> 00:22:03,839
me get into character. And then the next

538
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,479
thing that I would say is find your

539
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,639
creative outlets. Like for me, I love to

540
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,678
take art classes or I love to read or

541
00:22:11,679 --> 00:22:14,239
travel and and get inspired by the world

542
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,279
around you so that you can I don't know

543
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,359
put yourself in different shoes or try

544
00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:21,119
different things and and make yourself

545
00:22:21,120 --> 00:22:22,959
slightly uncomfortable as well in doing

546
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,519
it and learn about yourself. Um I don't

547
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:26,239
know that would be

548
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:27,839
>> I love that. I love both of that. Um

549
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,879
there's so many things. Um, I would say

550
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:32,639
this, it's not just where'd you go, you

551
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,079
sat, I found you. Um, it's not just

552
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,798
while acting or or while reading a

553
00:22:38,799 --> 00:22:41,839
script that you learn how to become an

554
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:43,599
actor or a storyteller, as I like to

555
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,239
think of it. Um, I think every person

556
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,479
you meet, whether they hurt your

557
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,319
feelings or support you, if it's a

558
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,079
friend or somebody you rather not ever

559
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,359
see again, try and imagine what they're

560
00:22:55,360 --> 00:22:57,519
thinking in their head. Uh, we have this

561
00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,519
at times. Someone will be a jerk.

562
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:00,558
>> Jefferson Fischer.

563
00:23:00,559 --> 00:23:01,038
>> What's that?

564
00:23:01,039 --> 00:23:01,599
>> Jefferson Fisher.

565
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,279
>> Jefferson Fischer. Yeah. Uh but you

566
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,279
know, someone will be mean to one of our

567
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,439
kids at school and we're like that. What

568
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,038
in the world? And we'll see their

569
00:23:09,039 --> 00:23:10,639
parents and it's like well what are they

570
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,719
thinking? What if I had played the role

571
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,158
of their parents or the kid? I'm sure

572
00:23:14,159 --> 00:23:15,918
our kids have been mean. I'm sure I've

573
00:23:15,919 --> 00:23:18,479
been mean. Um but trying to think about

574
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,319
like what might they be going through in

575
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,839
their lives that is inspiring them,

576
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,399
motivating them to do this right now. I

577
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:27,678
feel like I've become a better actor

578
00:23:27,679 --> 00:23:30,079
every conversation I have with somebody.

579
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,798
Not world's better. Um, but a little bit

580
00:23:32,799 --> 00:23:34,558
better. I understand a little bit more.

581
00:23:34,559 --> 00:23:36,158
I just met somebody from a little bit of

582
00:23:36,159 --> 00:23:37,999
a different situation. And so it's like

583
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,839
this giant puzzle or you're building

584
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,678
this building. Every time you have a

585
00:23:41,679 --> 00:23:43,439
conversation with somebody, especially

586
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,399
when you disagree to try and go, okay,

587
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,759
why why do they think that? Oh, maybe

588
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,038
they think that because their parent

589
00:23:51,039 --> 00:23:52,959
thought that or because they had a bad

590
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,639
day. And you get to add a brick onto

591
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:56,639
your building. So, keep adding bricks

592
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,239
and keep meeting people. Keep reading

593
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,279
books. Um, keep, you know, watching

594
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,599
cinema or TV or whatever you like. And,

595
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,839
uh, you got this. Thank you. I'm going

596
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:07,678
with our friend who had the four

597
00:24:07,679 --> 00:24:09,119
speakers up. Did he leave behind?

598
00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:10,158
>> Yes. You're right there. You're back

599
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,719
there. >> Yes. I think Jen saw you, but you get to

600
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,759
>> Yes. I think Jen saw you, but you get to
You can sit right there.

601
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,439
>> Oh, how's it going, guys?

602
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,839
>> Oh, good. I'm Simon. I'm from Sweden.

603
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,759
Hi, Simon. It's so great to see you

608
00:24:33,919 --> 00:24:36,879

609
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,879
uh I have a question for Scooby Natural,

610
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,079
the crossover. Uh I have I'm a huge

611
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,399
Scooby-Doo fan. So, how was it for you

612
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,119
to go in the booth and do like a voice

613
00:24:47,120 --> 00:24:50,479
over and be a character in that show? I

614
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:51,918
mean, you growing up watching a

615
00:24:51,919 --> 00:24:53,999
Scooby-Doo and they do the same thing as

616
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,999
you two guys do in Supernatural. How was

617
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,879
it to um I mean

618
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,239
>> I'm missing it a little bit. Are you

619
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,719
saying that question comment? Sorry. How

620
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,119
was it to to do the crossover uh with

621
00:25:05,120 --> 00:25:07,439
the Scooby gag? How was it?

622
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:08,959
>> The Scooby. I'm so sorry.

623
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:09,918
>> You say Scooby-Doo.

624
00:25:09,919 --> 00:25:11,439
>> The Scooby-Doo. Yeah.

625
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,119
>> Yeah. Sorry. Yeah.

626
00:25:13,120 --> 00:25:15,918
>> Oh, no. Thank you. Um I got you. That

627
00:25:15,919 --> 00:25:18,798
was so cool. So when I when I when I

628
00:25:18,799 --> 00:25:21,439
drove I graduated high school and I

629
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,319
drove with my grandfather to Los Angeles

630
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,879
to audition for a couple of weeks and if

631
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,959
I didn't get any more jobs I was going

632
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:30,719
to go back to Austin, Texas where we

633
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,119
live now and go to college. One of the

634
00:25:33,120 --> 00:25:35,439
things and a lot of y'all are too young

635
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,839
to know what this is. One of the things

636
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:43,119
I had in my car was a TV VCR DVD player.

637
00:25:43,120 --> 00:25:46,879
Like DVD DVD

638
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,558
And and a few of the VHS's that I had in

639
00:25:50,559 --> 00:25:52,479
my car with me were episodes of

640
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,639
Scooby-Doo that I recorded.

641
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,359
>> Stop.

642
00:25:55,360 --> 00:25:56,879
>> Yes. Really? [laughter]

643
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,639
Did you guys know this? Scooby?

644
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:02,719
>> Yes. Yes. Yeah. Like commercials and

645
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,798
just cuz I had a V I had a VHS.

646
00:26:04,799 --> 00:26:07,119
>> Did they have your soccer games on?

647
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:10,879
>> Yes. Yeah. My Yeah, my dad would Oh,

648
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,359
anyways. Um, but I like that was one of

649
00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:14,798
the things that I would watch. And then

650
00:26:14,799 --> 00:26:17,599
they made a Scooby-Doo movie when I was

651
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,639
maybe like 2002 or something. Um, I

652
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,558
didn't get it. Uh, Matt Lillard got

653
00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:24,158
Shaggy, who they wanted to be for. I was

654
00:26:24,159 --> 00:26:25,359
he was great for it. He was great in the

655
00:26:25,360 --> 00:26:28,239
role. Uh, but I was a fan of Scooby-Doo

656
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,399
growing up. And so to be a part of that

657
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,558
process, it was interesting because we

658
00:26:32,559 --> 00:26:34,558
had to do the voice over for Scooby

659
00:26:34,559 --> 00:26:38,079
Natural and then they animated to the

660
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,558
way that we said the words and then we

661
00:26:40,559 --> 00:26:42,558
got to go to Man's Chinese Theater in

662
00:26:42,559 --> 00:26:44,639
Hollywood and watch the premiere of it.

663
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,278
Uh it was pretty cool. And it's also it

664
00:26:47,279 --> 00:26:48,798
came out so many years ago that all of

665
00:26:48,799 --> 00:26:51,599
our kids were all of mine and Jen's

666
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:52,879
kids. I guess all of our kids were

667
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,599
younger. Um, yeah, but our kids were

668
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,678
young, but we're like, well, it's an

669
00:26:57,679 --> 00:27:00,399
animated one. Uh, let's watch it with

670
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,639
them, but they're like beheadings. Like,

671
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,839
let's maybe not watch this just yet. Uh,

672
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,798
so, uh, yeah, it was amazing. It was

673
00:27:08,799 --> 00:27:11,918
amazing on me. Thanks, man. Thanks.

674
00:27:11,919 --> 00:27:14,479
Thanks for show.

675
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,549
>> I've woken up

676
00:27:18,559 --> 00:27:20,719
for you. You for you. No, you choose.

677
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,558
You Oh. Uh, I want to go right here.

678
00:27:24,559 --> 00:27:26,158
Right. You're in the fourth row. Yes.

679
00:27:26,159 --> 00:27:28,319
You have the fingers. You're pointing.

680
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,599
You're nodding. Now you're nodding.

681
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,599
>> Cash. Will Casio.

682
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,079
>> Yeah. Uh, hi. My name is Cecilia and I'm

683
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:43,830
from Denmark.

684
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,399
>> Yeah. So, first of all, um, I want to

685
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:47,359
just thank you for being in

686
00:27:47,360 --> 00:27:48,959
Supernatural. I love the show and I

687
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,479
recently got to introduce it to my

688
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,719
little sister who's here with me today.

689
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,199
Uh, and we've really bonded over it as

690
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,158
siblings. Uh, so that's been amazing.

691
00:27:58,159 --> 00:28:01,678
So, thank you for that. Uh, and then my

692
00:28:01,679 --> 00:28:03,999
question is like behind the scenes on

693
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,599
Supernatural cuz there's uh a lot of

694
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,079
like history with uh you and Jensen

695
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:11,839
messing with Misha or the other way

696
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,239
around to a point where it's uh kind of

697
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,079
going in the way of filming. So, I'm

698
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,519
kind of wondering if there have been

699
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,918
points where you've really have like I

700
00:28:19,919 --> 00:28:22,479
don't know consequences or like been

701
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,558
thrown out or like something like Okay,

702
00:28:24,559 --> 00:28:25,918
this is enough. You're getting put in

703
00:28:25,919 --> 00:28:26,959
the corner now.

704
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,568
>> Uh yeah, we got kicked out of uh

705
00:28:31,279 --> 00:28:34,558
[laughter] at one point in time Misha Castile had a

706
00:28:34,559 --> 00:28:36,558
at one point in time Misha Castile had a
scene. I forget what he was. I think he

707
00:28:36,559 --> 00:28:40,158
was tied up or something and we kept on

708
00:28:40,159 --> 00:28:41,839
messing with him. I forget what we were

709
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:46,558
saying. Um but he asked the director to

710
00:28:46,559 --> 00:28:49,278
ask us to leave the stage like to get

711
00:28:49,279 --> 00:28:51,359
off the stage. Oh no sorry outside of

712
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,479
the studio. Um and so we are laughing

713
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,558
and laughing. Uh and then it again

714
00:28:56,559 --> 00:29:01,119
happened in a scene with uh with me

715
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,719
Jensen Misha and Alcal Alexander Calbert

716
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,558
Jack. We were all in a motel room and

717
00:29:08,559 --> 00:29:12,639
Misha and uh Alex, well uh Cass and Jack

718
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,278
are sitting on the couch and Dean and

719
00:29:15,279 --> 00:29:17,599
Sam are like behind some barn doors in

720
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,319
another part of the motel room and we

721
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,959
were we were making a lot of noises,

722
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,319
let's say. So we're finally our director

723
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:27,999
came up and was like, "Okay, uh Jared

724
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,759
and Jensen are wrapped." Was Nina Nina

725
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,158
let us come up. So she actually wrapped

726
00:29:32,159 --> 00:29:33,839
us like that. We didn't get in trouble,

727
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,199
but we were like, "Okay, cool. Well, I

728
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,798
guess we're going home. And then we like

729
00:29:36,799 --> 00:29:38,719
are on the way home going, "Do we just

730
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,599
get kicked off our own set?" I think we

731
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,839
did. Uh, most of the time it was always

732
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,599
in good fun. And uh, it was always

733
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:46,879
welcome. They were always welcome to

734
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,398
send it right back our way. We had a

735
00:29:48,399 --> 00:29:50,719
good time. Thanks. And welcome, sister.

736
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,239
Little sister. Welcome. Welcome to the

737
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,158
family. Right. Another question. What

738
00:29:54,159 --> 00:29:57,439
are we doing for time? All right. Great.

739
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,999
Lovely. Far away. I'll take someone

740
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,079
there on the first row there. Over

741
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,319
there. You in the middle? Yes, that's

742
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:08,319
you. Just so it sounds

743
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,999
>> hi. Hi. Um, first of all, I just want to

744
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,719
thank you so much because

745
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,918
um, back in May or June, I was on sick

746
00:30:17,919 --> 00:30:21,599
leave due to stress and I watched all of

747
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:36,398
Supernatural in 15 days. [laughter] What? What?
So now

748
00:30:36,399 --> 00:30:38,319
>> 15 days. Wow.

749
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:39,839
>> How much did you sleep?

750
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:40,479
>> Yeah,

751
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,479
>> I [laughter] slept and I have plans,

752
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,465
too. >> Oh my gosh. I thought you were stressed.

753
00:30:46,466 --> 00:30:47,119
>> Oh my gosh. I thought you were stressed.
[laughter]

754
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:48,959
>> Well, I had a couple of plans, but

755
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,839
otherwise, yeah, I basically just

756
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:53,119
watched the show.

757
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:53,759
>> Amazing.

758
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,239
>> Um, and I've introduced it to my friend

759
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,910
here. Um,

760
00:30:58,911 --> 00:30:59,439
[clears throat]

761
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,999
but yeah, so thank you so much because

762
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,959
it's become my comfort show and I've

763
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,398
watched it like over and over.

764
00:31:08,399 --> 00:31:11,199
>> I guess you watch it quickly.

765
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:11,839
>> That's true.

766
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,759
>> Is there a way to watch it? You know how

767
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,239
on like YouTube or Spotify you can do

768
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,959
like 1.5 times? Two times. Can you do

769
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:20,959
that with Supernatural?

770
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:21,918
>> Can you really?

771
00:31:21,919 --> 00:31:22,639
>> No.

772
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,119
>> How fast can you go?

773
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,079
You watch Supernatural 2X two times.

774
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:29,439
>> That's weird.

775
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,199
>> I would have thought that that's what I

776
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:32,959
did. >> No. Did you Amazing.

777
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,239
>> No. Did you Amazing.
>> No.

778
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:39,038
>> But um from uh Wildfire and Gilmore

779
00:31:39,039 --> 00:31:42,558
Girls to Walker into Supernatural.

780
00:31:42,559 --> 00:31:46,798
uh that is very different uh ways and

781
00:31:46,799 --> 00:31:51,119
processes processes of doing uh stuff

782
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:56,319
and doing uh movies and shows. Which one

783
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,918
uh is your favorite if you have one and

784
00:31:59,919 --> 00:32:04,879
what what was the um challenges like

785
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,278
what what was the difficulties?

786
00:32:07,279 --> 00:32:08,798
>> Yeah, you want to start?

787
00:32:08,799 --> 00:32:12,398
>> Um that's a great question. Uh

788
00:32:12,399 --> 00:32:15,599
I well I when I started Wildfire that

789
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,079
was the first TV show I'd ever done and

790
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,639
I was number one on a call sheet and so

791
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:25,038
for me I had a lot to learn and so it

792
00:32:25,039 --> 00:32:28,319
was I was also young and just it was

793
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:29,999
like grad school like I just was

794
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:34,158
learning so much and at that time um and

795
00:32:34,159 --> 00:32:36,319
so that was really fun and really

796
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,479
challenging at the same time. I think I

797
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,359
guess I think everyone every project has

798
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:45,599
a a wonderful amazing takeaway and also

799
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,038
a a challenge like Supernatural. I was

800
00:32:49,039 --> 00:32:52,319
terrified. One because I was on this

801
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,398
sweet show about a girl and her horse

802
00:32:54,399 --> 00:32:57,999
and then suddenly I was a demon doing

803
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,278
awful things and in addition I was

804
00:33:01,279 --> 00:33:03,038
taking over a role that someone else had

805
00:33:03,039 --> 00:33:04,959
already established with a fan base that

806
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,119
was incredibly passionate.

807
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,439
That was really scary.

808
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,719
>> Um, but you know, I will say again like

809
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,959
I just think every project has its

810
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,918
challenge and and its

811
00:33:17,919 --> 00:33:21,119
beauty and I almost think I love the

812
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,038
ones more where you have a challenge

813
00:33:23,039 --> 00:33:24,639
when you're like, "Oh, this is really

814
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,278
hard because I think you learn the most

815
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,199
about hard situations and you learn the most

816
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:32,879
hard situations and you learn the most
about yourself personally and

817
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,319
professionally." Yeah.

818
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:35,918
>> So, I don't know cuz every single

819
00:33:35,919 --> 00:33:37,518
project, every single character, whether

820
00:33:37,519 --> 00:33:40,079
it's in the same genre or not, is

821
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:41,678
different and new and you have to bring

822
00:33:41,679 --> 00:33:44,398
something new to that role and to that

823
00:33:44,399 --> 00:33:46,398
that story.

824
00:33:46,399 --> 00:33:50,398
>> Yeah, I think I agree. Um, I guess

825
00:33:50,399 --> 00:33:52,398
Gilmer Girls for me was kind of

826
00:33:52,399 --> 00:33:54,079
equivalent of her being on Wildfire.

827
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,518
Like I I was 17 years old when I filmed

828
00:33:57,519 --> 00:33:59,759
the pilot of Gilmer Girls. All I ever

829
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:01,199
done was acting school and I had done

830
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:02,959
smoke and forensics and so I wasn't used

831
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,759
to being on a set. I had rented my own

832
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,959
apartment. Uh I didn't know if I'd be on

833
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,918
one episode or four or 10 or 20 or

834
00:34:11,919 --> 00:34:14,638
ultimately 80. So I would like just stay

835
00:34:14,639 --> 00:34:17,199
on set and when the day was over I'd ask

836
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:18,319
if I could take the rest of the food

837
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,398
home. So I would sit there just like

838
00:34:20,399 --> 00:34:21,918
eating as much food as I could and then

839
00:34:21,919 --> 00:34:23,439
when the day was over be like y'all

840
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,519
going to throw this away like okay. So I

841
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,039
like stuff my backpack full of stuff.

842
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,598
Not lying at all. Um, and then

843
00:34:29,599 --> 00:34:31,598
Supernatural started and by then I kind

844
00:34:31,599 --> 00:34:33,199
of had a career. I'd done some movies

845
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,559
and um had some savings, but I still I'd

846
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,078
never been number one on the call sheet.

847
00:34:38,079 --> 00:34:41,118
Uh, and that was very much a two like

848
00:34:41,119 --> 00:34:42,959
Jensen and I were both kind of the leads

849
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,319
of the show, you know, we were there all

850
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,838
the time. Um, but that responsibility

851
00:34:47,839 --> 00:34:50,479
and I was 22 years old and so

852
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,918
Supernatural started at 22, finished at

853
00:34:53,919 --> 00:34:56,319
38 and finished with a wife and three

854
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:58,959
kids. Life was in a very different place

855
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,519
many, many times during that 15 years.

856
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,919
We couldn't film it in May or June. It

857
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,159
took us 15 years of May and June, but

858
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:07,598
I'm glad you got to watch it in May and

859
00:35:07,599 --> 00:35:09,439
June. Kidding. Not kidding. I'm glad you

860
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:10,559
got to watch it.

861
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,919
>> Uh, and with Walker, it was shot where

862
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:15,838
we live in Austin. So, I got to go home

863
00:35:15,839 --> 00:35:17,999
and be a husband and be a father

864
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,118
>> and producer

865
00:35:19,119 --> 00:35:20,559
>> and a producer. And so, it was very,

866
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:22,078
very different. But each one had such a

867
00:35:22,079 --> 00:35:24,559
a wonderful aspect to it. But I feel

868
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:28,239
like it wasn't until probably the last

869
00:35:28,240 --> 00:35:32,239
probably seven, probably around season

870
00:35:32,240 --> 00:35:33,759
eight or nine of Supernatural where I

871
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,879
was like, "Okay, I got this now."

872
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,118
And I still learn and I'm like, "Hey, do

873
00:35:39,119 --> 00:35:40,879
this in my sleep." But that's why I find

874
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,358
that question really opened up a whole

875
00:35:43,359 --> 00:35:45,838
can of worms. Oh, big in a good way.

876
00:35:45,839 --> 00:35:49,439
Thank you. I'm afraid we have run out of

877
00:35:50,720 --> 00:35:52,639
time >> now. They've agreed to stay here for the

878
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,799
>> now. They've agreed to stay here for the
next 6 hours in the car park.

879
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:56,559
>> Yes, we're going to we're going to watch

880
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,439
Supernatural on

881
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,319
the road. Ladies and gentlemen, will you

882
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:08,280
please give a warm thank you to Jared K.
