We’re The Millers hits theatres next month. Jason Sudeikis stars as a small-time pot dealer. He is a sweet, funny guy. On the lead up to the movie’s release, why not share a few quotes from a recent interview in ELLE magazine with Mickey Rapkin. (I might add here that the interview is totally non-We’re The Millers related, but funny nonetheless.)
Good-guy charmer turns dapper.
On having a major crush on Ellen DeGeneres in college:
JS: “It was 100 percent for real. It was the gorgeous blue eyes. And she’s hilarious. That’s all it takes for me.”
On having other crushes:
JS: “Whoever was in my father’s Playboy. He had a subscription. I joke that I grew up with an early version of the Internet. I remember, in preschool, finding them in the bathroom under the sink in my house. They might have been next to the toilet at that point. Who is going to think a five-year-old would look at that? And then cut out pictures to bring to school….”
On the public perception that he is punching above his weight with Olivia Wilde:
JS: “I don’t get upset about it. I might have a moment of gangster flare-up. It’s more like, You don’t know me!”
On fiance, Olivia Wilde, helping him to lose a little weight:
JS: “A lot of it comes from tiny things, like not eating barbecue sauce with my pizza at two in the morning. It think it’s all a manifestation of being happy and wanting to treat myself well. The truth is, I’m not getting up an hour earlier and walking on a treadmill. I have the greatest workout partner in the world. And you don’t need a gym membership for that kind of workout.”
When asked what was scarier – the first time he appeared on SNL or the first time he slept with a woman:
JS: “Sex was probably scarier. I wasn’t as concerned that my parents were going to walk in in the middle of my first sketch. There are security guards there. That’s a big part of it.”
