00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:06.570
Hello, my name's Dermot Mulroney. I, uh,

2
00:00:06.840 --> 00:00:10.830
perform a role in Secret Invasion
that's coming out on Disney Plus. Um,

3
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:12.690
I'm here at the AV Club.

4
00:00:16.650 --> 00:00:20.300
Uh, SC Scream was such a
phenomenal experience for me. I,

5
00:00:20.310 --> 00:00:22.740
I think it gave me a little, um, um,

6
00:00:23.250 --> 00:00:27.420
just a little taste of what a big
franchise, uh, fan group is like.

7
00:00:27.420 --> 00:00:30.450
So I'm so grateful to be involved
in that in the same way that, uh,

8
00:00:30.450 --> 00:00:34.770
secret Invasion is about to take
off. So I'm amazingly, uh, new,

9
00:00:35.070 --> 00:00:39.570
new experiences in that regard
for me. So, um, super lucky to be,

10
00:00:39.900 --> 00:00:43.440
uh, to be in these two
groups, but Scream, uh,

11
00:00:43.470 --> 00:00:46.770
took on its own character for me.
Of course, I play a, you know,

12
00:00:46.770 --> 00:00:51.450
a part that you'll reveal at the
end of the thing was driven by, um,

13
00:00:52.080 --> 00:00:55.800
unprocessed grief, right?
Yeah. Yeah. And, uh,

14
00:00:55.830 --> 00:01:00.240
he and his family took upon themselves
to right some wrongs in their point of

15
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:04.380
view. I,

16
00:01:04.380 --> 00:01:07.920
when I first got the material
that similarly, they,

17
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:12.390
they show you just the script in
little bits at a time. So I was,

18
00:01:13.020 --> 00:01:17.940
I wasn't sure who I was playing,
but I knew I was, um, eh,

19
00:01:17.940 --> 00:01:20.670
see, I don't wanna give too
much weight. Even still, um,

20
00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:25.500
anyone who's seen Scream knows that I
didn't know what happened in the last reel

21
00:01:25.620 --> 00:01:28.500
with that amazing shot That, um,
all right, I'll give it away That,

22
00:01:28.500 --> 00:01:31.530
that spins around me while I'm
screaming. Getting stabbed. Okay. Sorry.

23
00:01:31.770 --> 00:01:36.720
Spoiled it. Oh,

24
00:01:36.990 --> 00:01:41.790
horror romcoms. Gosh, I don't
know. It's probably time.

25
00:01:41.790 --> 00:01:45.900
Somebody really combined
those two. Um, and, uh, yeah,

26
00:01:47.070 --> 00:01:50.670
<laugh>, uh, killer of the Bride. I
guess they have kind of, yeah, they,

27
00:01:50.670 --> 00:01:53.460
they have those movies already. Um, I,

28
00:01:53.470 --> 00:01:57.420
I had such a wonderful time just
recently working on a romcom with this

29
00:01:57.420 --> 00:02:00.420
incredible cast. I think
they'll call it anyone but you.

30
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:05.070
And it's out in December. Um, so
I've done Horror Marvel and a romcom,

31
00:02:06.030 --> 00:02:09.840
uh, uh, in this, in this past bit.
Um, so I don't have a favorite.

32
00:02:13.830 --> 00:02:17.040
I probably get recognized the
most for my Best Friend's wedding,

33
00:02:17.040 --> 00:02:22.020
but from recently it's amazing how many
people, uh, will bring up New Girl, um,

34
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:24.090
which is super popular. I'll mention too,

35
00:02:24.090 --> 00:02:25.770
that because of the way streaming works,

36
00:02:25.770 --> 00:02:29.580
some of my older films are coming
back to the front wedding date.

37
00:02:29.610 --> 00:02:34.230
Even Copycat, um, has found its
audience, again, a whole new audience.

38
00:02:34.230 --> 00:02:39.000
So that's really gratifying and wouldn't
have happened, um, without these, um,

39
00:02:39.030 --> 00:02:42.630
technological changes that changed
how, uh, we watched things.

40
00:02:43.080 --> 00:02:46.740
I'll add too that it also changed how
actors and writers and cinematographers

41
00:02:46.740 --> 00:02:51.300
and assistant directors are paid.
So, uh, we're trying to rectify that

42
00:02:56.430 --> 00:02:57.900
probably anything by Tom Jones <laugh>.
