Bill Hader Online

Bill Hader did an interview with ComingSoon.net. He answers several questions about SNL, Pineapple Express, and Tropic Thunder. To read the interview,

CS: You have so many projects in the works right now, is SNL still something you see yourself doing?
Bill Hader: Yeah, totally. I love it there and there’s nothing else like it in the world. It’s a completely different world.

CS: You have “Pineapple Express” coming out soon. Tell me about your role.
Hader: I shot for one day on that. The scene takes place in the ’20s and I asked Seth and Evan, the writers, “What does this have to do with the movie?” and they said, “I don’t know.” It was a blast and David Gorden Green, the director of the film, I’m a huge fan of so it was fun to work with him. Seth and Evan are great guys, so it was a lot of fun.

CS: What can you tell me about “Tropic Thunder?”
Hader: I think people are going to be really amazed with Tom Cruise in this movie. I have a lot of scenes with Tom Cruise where he’s head of a studio and he’s really, really funny in this movie. He and Robert Downey Jr. are great. Everybody in this movie is hilarious. It’s an insane movie.

CS: Who do you play?
Hader: I play a guy who is the executive in charge of the movie “Tropic Thunder,” the movie within the movie. I’m kind of a sniveling bastard. I’m Tom Cruise’s character’s one-hand man in the movie.

CS: What was it like working with him?
Hader: He’s the nicest guy ever. He’s just hilarious in the movie.

CS: You also have ‘Hoodwinked 2″ coming up right?
Hader: Yeah, Amy Poehler and I play Hansel and Gretel. It was so cool. It was fun to do something with Amy outside of the show. It was a blast.
