00:00Yeah, they, like, stole our souls over a year and a half.
00:07I didn't know that slowly they were just picking away at my DNA, and that's interesting.
00:15But yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, he had to shave the whole beard and hair off before
00:20he came to do the press tour, but it used to be, you know.
00:23Yeah, got another role.
00:25Massive, I mean, I had to take massive amounts of steroids.
00:29While I was doing the part, because I really wanted to be right.
00:33Your shoulders are a lot smaller than, like, your chest, though, in that way.
00:37You think so?
00:38I think so.
00:39You might need to work on that.
00:40Yeah.
00:41Yes, we look, like, so, I was tripped out by how our behavior, I mean, I, like, every,
00:49I mean, I didn't know you, and then when we met for the first time, it was weird.
00:55It was, like, I had seen the movie and saw all the characteristics of the movie and your
00:59voice, obviously, and then it was, like, there were things you were doing that were, like,
01:04the character.
01:05It's weird meeting the character first before you meet the person, right?
01:08Yeah.
01:09Because you're, like, oh, wow, my dad said he was in the theater watching another movie,
01:11and he heard the trailer, and he heard my voice, and he walked in, and it was, like,
01:14what the?
01:15So, you know.
01:16Yeah, I feel like they picked the smallest of expressions that were still, like, uniquely
01:21us, and then when you add them up, it really kind of, like, it's really kind of more startling.
01:26Deep fake.
01:27Deep fake.
01:28No.
01:29Yeah.
01:30Yeah.
01:31There was one where Ethan, like, kind of readjusts and sits in a chair like this, and I'm, like,
01:33I know for a fact I never sat in a session, so where did they get that from?
01:38That's so interesting.
01:39Yeah, I was, like, you guys were just, like, actually, please tell me so I can sleep in
01:42it.
01:43Like, where did you get that?
01:44The one thing that they will say is that they said that he, like, uses his hands all the
01:47time, and I definitely do not use my hands all the time.
01:51It just doesn't ever happen.
01:52I've never used my hands.
01:53They're usually right by my side, so I don't know where they got that from.
