0:53
I know that junkets, they can be a little bit of a grind.
0:55
It must be surreal to be in front of this gauntlet of scorching hot wings.
0:58
What's your mindset like going into this interview?
1:02
Thanks for using the word scorching. The [ __ ] of it, yeah.
1:04
Yeah, that was good because I was a little nervous and now I feel totally relaxed. I'm ready.
1:08
I always wanted to mouth sex a volcano.
1:11
So, I'm going to do that today.
1:11
Just going to get my lips right around it. Just let St.
1:15
Helens release her hot Okay, let's go. Let's move it on.
1:19
I see where this is going.
1:42
Oh no, you just come right in there, Sean. That was perfect.
1:48
I was warned not to let it touch my lips. It's all over my lips. It's all everywhere.
1:51
It's just like like a lip balm.
1:53
That was not a good idea. I said It's okay. No, we're good. Mhm.
2:01
So, Wolverine as a character has so much gravitas.
2:04
I'm curious at what point did you realize his potential to be like the perfect straight man in a double act comedy?
2:11
The moment I saw This is okay. I'm doing all right. You too. Okay. Good luck.
2:16
Um literally the moment I saw Deadpool 1.
2:20
That's when everything came flashing to me.
2:22
That's where I saw 48 Hours in Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy. I saw Midnight Run. I saw The Odd Couple.
2:26
I saw Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
2:28
I was like, "These two characters have to be together."
2:32
And I had literally announced my retirement 3 days before. Yeah. I was like, "Curses. Curses." Yeah.
2:39
Um and anyway, it took us 6 years to get there, but we got there. there. We're on to number two.
2:47
And my kids thought I would literally be crying after the And a nice little protein hit, you know, for the guns.
2:53
So, I can't see anything. Ooh, yeah. I got a lot there. All right. Generous bite.
3:02
So, on a foundational level, what's it like for an actor to get fitted for a superhero costume?
3:06
Like, how similar or dissimilar is it to going to a tailor and getting fitted for a custom suit? That's a great question.
3:13
Always the best questions.
3:14
That's why how you get them, right?
3:16
Yeah, cuz they're good questions.
3:16
Um I'm starting to feel cocky.
3:19
It is um Yeah, don't go there. Don't go. Don't go. Don't go. I'm just jumping to 10.
3:22
I'm just going off script. Stay off script.
3:26
You will keep up with the Australia charade. Yeah. Yeah, all right.
3:30
The superhero suits are your biggest calling card of the character, of the movie, of everything.
3:36
The first time I put on the suit, I don't know if I've told you this one cuz I I did the fitting in New York. 7 and 1/2, 8 out of 10. It looked incredible. It was like great. time. Yeah, I remember.
3:46
It was uh it it had a little bit of it still needed to be snugged up. Make me look okay.
3:53
The second one feeling I did it was like It was like bang, there's Wolverine.
3:57
And I haven't taken it off for 2 years.
4:01
I Yeah, he's just sleeping in it. Yeah, it's just a Yeah.
4:04
absolute obsession with At the moment we It's 3 days after the Um It's it's I do think that I I think that the Deadpool suit and this Wolverine suit are the two best comic book movie suits ever made.
4:15
Did the Deadpool suit is made by a guy named Rush Schinkle who who's just a I think a genius and, you know, knows how to kind of frame [ __ ] a suit forever until it's just perfect. Um and he really did.
4:26
Yeah, it's uh and this this one, yeah, was just It was awesome. Yeah. Oh, I like Kimchi. Out of Montreal.
4:36
For now you like Kimchi, but Mhm, okay.
4:38
Well, nailed the lips there. Okay. Mhm. Mhm.
4:46
So far so far we're okay. Do not touch my lips. Do not touch my lips.
4:51
I'm I'm going to be watching you. Okay.
4:53
I'm not going to let you do it, Hugh. Yeah.
4:55
I'll die from across the table. to do this up. There you go. Nothing wrong with that. Yeah, okay.
5:01
Kimchi, you didn't need to do that. I'm just going to say. No, it's true.
5:04
Yeah, we Ryan, I'm going to say all Ryan, what was the worst accident or hairiest situation you found yourself in as a forklift driver at the Safeway on 25th and Oak in Vancouver? Are you getting that?
5:17
You eat that cake at the back?
5:19
Okay, also the the specificity there was a little little alarming.
5:23
I haven't heard anything about Yeah.
5:26
Ryan, I've been living under your bed for a year.
5:29
Can you tell me a little bit about the sounds you make when you're Um But yeah, I crushed my ankle a couple of times on this forklift cuz they're the ones that you drive and then you also have the ones that you walk with, but they're motorized.
5:40
Oh, walking ones are the scary ones.
5:43
Yeah, when it gets away from you and you're Oh, yeah.
5:46
And you back it up and you realize you're standing like right next to an industrial refrigerator and it just jams you right into it.
5:50
You're like, "Oh, this is how they find me." Yeah.
5:53
Hugh, which pre-fame job do you remember more fondly and why?
5:56
Working as a ranger for the National Parks and Wildlife Foundation of Australia That's the first.
6:03
or your time as a birthday clown for hire?
6:05
Which do you remember more fondly? My god.
6:08
Um I remember more fondly the birthday party.
6:14
Coco, I literally literally rented a clown outfit and me and this guy, Stan, we went to a birthday parties and we had no skills. Literally no skills.
6:21
So, they robbed people and that's how they did it. They robbed everyone.
6:25
I remember doing I broke my rule and I did an 8-year-old party.
6:27
I was like I always knew that was they're going to find me out and he found me out and this kid yelled to his mom, "Mom, this clown is crap." Wow. like, "Shut up, kid. Shut up, kid."
6:38
And one of my things was juggling. I could juggle.
6:41
So, I had eggs and I was like I just reached in and grabbed eggs.
6:44
I'm like, "Yeah, well, what about that?"
6:45
And I just cracked it on my head and he's like, "That's funny."
6:48
So, I just kept cracking and then they just jumped on top of me and that's it.
6:52
That was the last time Sounds like an awesome birthday party. Wow.
6:56
Not not not the last time you would humiliate yourself for an 8-year-old. Okay.
7:05
This is um some in-house product placement. Good eye for that.
7:10
Called Hot Ones and may I say that this out of all of the um really is one of the best hot sauces that I think I've ever seen before.
7:19
You can order yours of course online or at your local retailer, but um I feel more virile.
7:23
I feel like I can make love like like Thor. Oh my gosh.
7:27
um really this is the this is the one. Sean, I don't feel safe.
7:31
No, I get it, but I'm here for you, Hugh. I'm here for you. Thanks.
7:35
From a a movie perspective, I am curious like when is a leak a good thing and And when is it bad for the project?
7:40
Like what distinguishes that? question.
7:44
Uh really hard to to kind of I'm shocked that we've managed to get through this without some of our biggest surprises uh ending up even being hypothesized on an online, but and it's hard to keep a secret.
7:56
You know, I I I'll say I've never talked about this before, but do you know that maybe you know this the original idea with this movie was to shoot a fake movie uh called Alpha Cop that was intentionally bad.
8:08
Like the poster I even had one of the posters made.
8:10
It was it was about two guys who are sharing one brain and it and together they make the ultimate cop.
8:17
And the poster says, you know, Alpha Cop.
8:19
Two uh two two cops, one brain, all balls.
8:25
And um it was meant to be kind of like horrible.
8:27
And you know, so you would go you would you know, like 10 people in America would go to see this movie on opening weekend and 5 minutes into the movie the Marvel logo would flip up and it would actually be um the Wolverine. Damn.
8:42
but the problem with if you managed to get right down to the last minute and it gets blown, you know, it would just it would be heartbreaking. So, I don't know.
8:50
It's it but we've been lucky on this one.
8:51
Some stuff has gone online.
8:53
for the people that really wanted to see Alpha Cop, too, you know, you got to think about them. That's true.
8:58
Which may or may not be rolling 5 minutes into our movie on July 26th. that coming. Yeah. Um yeah.
9:04
I can give you an example of bad, like X-Men Origins: Wolverine when I think a week before the whole movie was somehow leaked online.
9:11
In fact, I think it's the only case where someone's been prosecuted and gone to jail for the leak. Oh, wow. Yeah.
9:17
I mean it was the rough rough it was like It was rough rough and it was leaked maybe a week before we came out and I think I just remember someone saying, I think it's up to 10 million people have seen it already before we'd come out.
9:28
Yeah, no no, that's that's completely crazy. leak.
9:31
Yeah, it's a leak that leak had a higher Rotten Tomatoes score, which was shocking given that it was, you know, blue screens and ropes and That was the hardest part of that.
9:38
He shouldn't have reviewed that. That's not fair. This is Fat Cat.
9:48
Uh yeah, Fat Cat, which isn't nearly as good as Hot Ones hot sauce available at any of your local retailers. Oh. I'll go two big a bite. I'll go two big a bite. Mhm. Oh. That was a rookie error.
9:58
I think it was Red that said, "All right." That's right.
10:02
Just dropping that name there.
10:03
Um So, watch out for five. Yeah. That's a step up.
10:07
I'm going for the milk already. I'm in. Yeah. I'm starting.
10:09
I'm man enough for a minute.
10:11
Can you eat reveal what you do estimate to be the most takes ever requested by a director for a single scene of a movie you're in?
10:19
I remember on X-Men 1 it wasn't it wasn't I was in the scene, but it was Patrick Stewart having to give a long bit of mutation.
10:28
You know, exposition dialogue. I remember it was 30. It was in the 30s.
10:37
For that and it was a long bit of thing. Yeah. I fell for that.
10:40
It's the It's the hot sauce.
10:40
I'm not laughing till I cry because of it. Okay. All right.
10:45
I hate that we put all that hot sauce on that napkin. Stop.
10:50
No, Hugh, I'm No, I'm not kidding. Why did you do that?
10:52
I don't know why I did that. Oni Ma. Okay. Oni Ma. Oni Ma.
10:59
See what you You have to have Uh Mhm. Oh.
11:07
Don't know why I double dipped there. Taste angry.
11:09
Yeah, it's really It does.
11:11
You know what I'm going to eat?
11:11
I'm going to eat a bag of rusty razors.
11:13
That's what I'm going to eat.
11:13
You know, wall's starting to close in.
11:17
That's Yeah, the walls are there. The walls. Yeah.
11:19
Um Really, Oni Ma very intense.
11:20
Again, nowhere near Hot Ones.
11:24
just That was a significant jump. It was a very much it.
11:29
Not playing around anymore. We're in the back half. Yeah.
11:32
So, when you hear about movies taking an inordinate amount of time to make, you know, like Deadpool taking a decade to get off the ground or Kevin Costner's Horizon taking 30 years, what is actually happening behind the scenes?
11:44
And then, what are the sorts of things that can get these projects over the hump?
11:47
What are some of the things cheating? You know?
11:51
You know, if you have test footage, some [ __ ] just leaks it onto the internet. Yeah, that's right.
11:55
Turns it into a big old [ __ ] glory hole in a product tank.
11:57
Everybody just taking a whack.
11:58
Uh I'm just saying words now that [ __ ] me up.
12:04
Yeah, that's [ __ ] me up, too. Yeah. Tears are coming. Tears are good. real men cry. Yeah, real men cry. Exactly right.
12:13
This will all be lost like tears in the rain. Rutger Hauer. That's it. There you go. Why are you zooming in? Stop zooming.
12:20
How does he How do you know it's zooming in? I just saw this. Wait, there's four more. No. Look at that. Shake. The shake's happening. Oh, it's too big again. Too big. Too big? The mouth pull.
12:43
I'm going to eat angry now. Yep. Mhm.
12:46
I'm getting I'm getting angry. That was milk though.
12:48
I'm going to go with some milk. You got it, man.
12:51
So, as the host of a chicken wing talk show that consists of, you know, just tablecloths, hot sauces, and this black curtain, Ryan, I really love your quote where you say, "The great enemy of creativity is too much time and money." Can you unpackage that?
13:05
Um well I can safely unbox that for you, Sean.
13:11
Um I'm going to say that uh Yeah, there you go.
13:16
It's Yeah, it hits all the glands, doesn't it? The kids are going.
13:21
Chew has never felt physical pain.
13:21
So, for him as a pampered starlet, this is important.
13:26
Important right of passage.
13:26
Your next role is going to be amazing.
13:29
Uh the I think that the enemy of of of quality can very much be uh Too much time and too much money.
13:38
And um in some big movies, I mean, [ __ ] right? This is [ __ ] wild.
13:44
Some films that I've been on are they have a lot of money and you kind of keep throwing more money at a problem when you kind of your real problem is that you were focused on spectacle over character.
13:52
I'm trying to speak really quickly because god damn it. No, I get it. I get it.
13:56
And uh yeah, when you focus on spectacle as as opposed to character, audiences I think are a little innured to spectacle.
14:01
I feel like the CGI effects and those kinds of things aren't what actually sustain an audience after a movie comes out.
14:06
That they in fact uh relate to and remember character moments.
14:12
They'll remember a line or a moment more so than they will the earth being in peril or or something like that.
14:18
So, um yeah, I uh So, my tongue I actually Is the first time in my life I don't know if I'm peeing. You'll edit that out. Hold on. Yeah, we're good. I'm actually shaking. Yeah.
14:38
Yeah, I think my I'd like I'm going to test my heart rate after this cuz it's up it's way up.
14:43
I've got to get my lips out of here. Here we go. Good luck. No, that was a lot. That's a lot. Oh, [ __ ] up. Oh, [ __ ] Really? There we go. Oh, [ __ ] go. Yeah. Oh, [ __ ] up.
14:56
Yeah, I know I know immediately.
14:58
Probably the spiciest thing you've ever eaten, I'd imagine.
15:00
100% Number six was the spiciest. Five.
15:05
But, what I want to do here is I want to play a little game.
15:07
Dom, can we bring out the paddles?
15:12
So, over here we have some paddles.
15:12
You can see that there's a Canadian flag on one side. trouble.
15:17
And there's an Australian flag on the other.
15:19
And what I'll do is I'll hit you with a superlative.
15:21
You know, like which country has better food?
15:23
And then you'll vote with the paddle.
15:25
And if there's a disagreement, it maybe would be nice to debate it in real time, but I understand that's a lot to throw at you, especially given the circumstances.
15:32
And then we're going to bring in some ice cream for you guys, too.
15:37
Here comes some ice cream. Oh, thank you, Victoria.
15:40
I I'm at my richter I really might reach my limit. And that's okay. This cut up still again. No, we're close to hot.
15:49
Which is available many unrespected online retailers.
15:55
Which country has produced better films?
15:57
How can you still be Oh, that's a really tough question.
16:02
I hate to say but I'm going to say it. Yeah. Here you go.
16:05
Just the 70s, 80s we really did really well.
16:07
Muriel's Wedding, Baz Luhrmann. Breaker Morant. Oh, Gallipoli. Mad Max, Ten Canoes. Oh, yeah. Adventures of Priscilla. How about this? The Castle. Best seafood. Oh. Oh. Oh, shut your mouth.
16:25
With a 98% at 98% of Shut your filthy mouth.
16:29
You can't you know So when I'm going to shoot every scene where I have to cry.
16:34
Right, are you thinking about maybe the salmon out of British Columbia or something? Oh, yeah. You are.
16:39
That salmon is pretty awesome. Yeah.
16:41
How about out of the best scenery? Better scenery. Well, that's tricky.
16:46
I'm going to say coast to coast to coast.
16:48
But but very close because I've been to Yeah, both are good.
16:53
paradise but I've never been to New York.
16:56
Where do you find the better slang?
17:00
There we go, in full agreement on that.
17:02
Well, fair dinkum, digger.
17:04
A little bit stronger than all of our other answers. Yep.
17:09
I was really going to quit and now wait, wait, this must Oh, thank you.
17:12
Can I have the ice cream? Yeah, just dive into it.
17:14

Kick the ice cream's a kicker.
17:43
I promise you there is no spice in the ice cream. I promise you that.
17:47
Can I say apologies to both Australia and Canada?
17:50
I have no recollection of any question or or I don't even remember.
17:54
I don't know what just happened.
17:54
It's like I just want a white flag. Yeah. And I want to leave it.
18:04
How do you avoid taking a ridiculously big bite?
18:06
Yeah, just don't do what you did last time, for sure.
18:09

18:15
I think you're incapable. I am. I know, right? That's great. That's great. Now not fun. Not fun.
18:23
down the barrel like it like there's a god in there. Is there a god in there?
18:29
Oh my god, I I I cheated Wordle.
18:29
I don't know why I just said that. Oh, that's terrible.
18:35
I've got it's up the back of my nose. I know.
18:39
You How does the pressure of singing the national anthem at a rugby match between Australia and New Zealand How does that compare to say like Nothing.
18:46
This is hosting the Tonys.
18:49
Or waiting for the opening weekend box office numbers to roll in.
18:51
Like does one induce more panic than the other?
18:54
Yeah, singing the national anthem for the first time when you don't identify as a singer at the time and realizing you're in front of 90,000 people in a stadium that will boo you.
19:03
Your own country people will boo you. I was so scared.
19:06
And I was that you said, "Sure, why not?" Totally.
19:11
I said, "Sure, I'll do it."
19:11
And I remember being in the dressing room, which is where the players like smells of like that.
19:20
And I just was singing the national anthem over and over again.
19:23
Australia just had to get through the nerves and there was an old guy sitting in the corner whose job is to clean it up and he goes, "Uh, you're a bit too bit toey over there, are you, mate?" Which means nervous.
19:33
You're a bit ner- a bit nervous.
19:36
I said, "Well, yeah, you know, there's only 90,000 people."
19:37
And he goes, "I forget that.
19:38
There's like a There's like a billion people watching on TV."
19:43
That I have never been more scared in my life.
19:45
That That was the most Actually, it helped me because everything hosting the Oscars, opening weekend, editing nothing has been as scary as that.
19:52
Eating the world's spiciest chicken wings.
19:54
Except I have not been this nervous in a while.
19:56
And that's why I'm just talking.
19:57
I'm just talking to distract myself.
19:59
Can I have a taste of it?
20:00
Why are you shaking it up? What are you doing?
20:01
Don't worry, I'll get it. All right.
20:04
This is a real friendship. Uh-huh. Except till now.
20:12
I might put the bomb down just to like finish inside an ambulance.
20:16
I'll tell you to get back there. We've got through that.
20:17
We've climbed Mount Everest.
20:19
I want to put down the delicious hot ones.
20:22
Of course available at any of your national online retailers or stores.
20:26
I may go with um this one.
20:28
This is the end, I might even know the lyrics to the Australian national anthem. This is dangerous. a little dab here.
20:35
I hate being competitive.
20:35
I hate being competitive. Dab will do you.
20:39
Hey, give me a little Dab, a little dab will do you. Ready? Just give it to me. So, here we go. Whoa.
20:46
And then Just a little tap.
20:47
Just a little A little in your mouth. tap on the tongue.
20:54
Last dab with the bomb crossover.
20:58
The to make evidence of the the bomb there. Okay. What a way to go. All right.
21:04
you got two questions for us, Sean, right?
21:06
Yeah, I got one last question. Cheers. Okay. There it is. Remember how it grows.
21:11
You know, it sort of flowers into something Let's talk about There we go.
21:24
The shake has turned into a little bit of a celebratory dance. Oh, oh. No, no.
21:28
You're Remember, it's like a good hour before that turns downright joyful.
21:31
A [ __ ] I can take an optimistic man.
21:36
It's a war crime in a bottle.
21:36
And it becomes worse and worse. There it is, right? I have a headache. I have a headache.
21:43
So, on the screen, you guys have fostered this rivalry, this antipathy towards one another.
21:47
But, as we've seen today, we know that the real relationship, it's rooted in love. It's rooted in respect.
21:53
So, to close things out, I'm curious, after doing this film together, what's one thing that you appreciate about the other more than ever?
22:01
What's one thing that annoys you about the other?
22:04
I'd say it's the most um unromantic thing, but for somebody who tends to I tend to over function a bit, right?
22:13
Like I tend to I think anxiety takes me to a place where I sort of over prepare, over function, over book myself, all of those things.
22:21
