gonna be some kind

of Russian mobster killer.

You're the killer.

Yeah, we're having camera

problems because I need to get

an actor in place,

and therefore,

I'm pretending to

have camera problems

so the actors don't suspect

that we're just sitting here,

waiting for--

Stalling.

Stalling.

So when you're stalling,

there's a lot of tricks.

If these filmmakers

would get outta my way,

I think I could get outta here.

Like, I love these people,

you know what I mean?

It could've been one of the

toughest experiences I've

had to face on a film shoot.

But it was just really,

really difficult.

It was hard, you know what?

It was hard.

I'm not glad it's

over, but it was hard.

It was hard to be

hated for that long.

I don't like being

a complete dickwad.

And I was trying to

work out my stuff

the whole time in that

film, but it was just

hard to stay outta trouble.

Really, it is the

best thing that

has ever happened to me,

definitely as an actor

and maybe as a person.

I feel really fortunate

to have been part of it.

It was not easy.

That was just--

that was intense.

That was really intense.

But it was totally worth it.

I mean, and it felt

great doing it.

It, honestly, has been the

greatest experience of my life

so far, because I

felt like I really

came into myself as an actor.

And everybody around was

so incredible to work with.

All awesome human beings.

Everybody knew exactly what

they were doing and did it well.

Everybody was capable of doing

so many different things.

It really changed

me as a person.
