Favorite film what irish john josses current project is future man its available to stream now on hulu thanks for joining us josh how you doing. I know im. Doing as well as i could be i think given everything. Thats its good to be talking with another few women that i have yet to meet so its exciting to think. That nice to talk to you although we have an interesting thing in our past when i 1st moved to l. A. I lived in a place on bar in boulevard called the Oakwood Apartments and just only lived there 2 so we are alone as of the same place i feel after we go way back brother. Yeah i completely i did i did i did i think 6 or 7 years there of my young life when i was trying to become an actor and you know its its a special police lovely it has its demons as well but we both are here we are 2 player who can. Now i look at the dodgers play good before we Start Talking shop even the dodgers were staged this year they are limited theyre pissed off that they got cheated the last couple of wearables. Their pump was primed this is hurt. And now its i mean sports in general right now are just its such a weird time i grew up in kentucky actually and so like im primarily a Cincinnati Reds fan which as you can imagine if you follow baseball its not very fun to be but i am proud to be a fan of that and since i moved here you know ive been following the dodgers and we had a chance to do Something Interesting and now you know so its all messed up a tell me about future matt available to stream now on hulu i read about the project that for our viewers tell me that i find that interesting. Its a its a crazy show you know i have its my 1st time doing television its my 1st time doing comedy so it sounds like its probably going to be a disaster but you know it worked out just all right it was you know its a show that was produced by seth rogen and Evan Goldberg they are the original you know people that came on board to make this project its a crazy action time travel comedy that has the markings of a very crude seth rogen sort of world but for me was it really fun to step into something that strange and different and we had 3 seasons of their final season just finished and just came out and i know were were happy to finish it but it was it was a great it was a great its a fun show i highly recommend anybody who wants to just watch something absolutely ridiculous it makes almost no sense and you want to laugh that is the entertainment that we are providing at this moment. Rogen is currently smoking so much dope there rust a fiery and saying brother you gotta hold back you just got to hold it back to that and im. Not ratting on him i saw an interview with. Is that im smoking im godly. Use of marijuana which made me laugh when youre in the room and thats how is easy intimidating i find him to be a pretty you know hes got the stoner thing have at him but hes you hes smart like a chalk and cheese fart where they know theres a play there but hes also pretty stupid pretty hilarious whats whats your interaction with rogen. Its been its been great i mean i think that he is has such a unique mind you know and i think the way that he views comedy is is very in my mind very special and singular i think that he has a very astute radar and you know he very much can be on set and watching whats happening and is very aware of when somethings working and when its not and you know were committed as an actor is very different than work with him as a producer as a writer as an actor hes like you know just having fun and living in the moment and you know creating this crazy improv stuff that he lives in and as a producer writer hes very much he is a businessman hes focused hes driven and ive absolutely loved working with him i would love to continue that and see where it goes for sure or what is better on the set to have than somebody who gets it because lets face facts a sweet spot the 1st zol for comedy for any that drama than this theres a point right out here and when you get up to it theres a great surface tension that feels very light very kinetic very real and one step over it it flattens like assume flame and it feels for meals weird it feels oh really manufacture so good you got for you have to have him on the set you know thats great i mean like it again i had my 1st time stepping out of his world of comedy in this world of t. V. And and to put that trust into someone knowing that it was set program knew i always loved his work and everything i think that you know he showed up and really that we took it to that it really took it to that point every time and yes man crossed it and we do what we do have a take but genuinely have always playing right on that line of what worked and what. Were talking to Josh Hutcherson and the project were talking about is the future of earth not the future meant future map for its available to stream now on hulu you say havent done comedy but i see in your curriculum detail here we share Something Else you post i have not hosted saturday night live but it was a lot of for 6 years you hosted it how did it come off i cant even describe the level of nerves that i felt during yes you know it was like i mean for me to and i dont have any theater background ive never done Live Performance of anything in my entire life so that come on my 1st time doing the thing was on s n l it was absolutely insane it was apt it was so incredible to see the whole process hoshi all these Creative Minds that work there is offered like all day every day to make this show what it is to just see all the inner workings was incredible and for me i think that that like really triggered something in me that didnt make me more interested in doing comedy and being in that world because it flexes this muscle as like a performer that nothing else can touch having to be on your toes having to be witty being so present in the moment and receiving but then also being aware and then transmitting it its really challenging but i loved it i also it was one of the most nerve wracking experiences of my entire life as you know but yeah it was it was amazing its like tom sizemore in heat though or he looks at the narrow and he says you know the action is the juice theres no juice like s n l when you hit the ball there remember hanks is a young guy the 1st time hanks hosted it he wasnt hanks yet you know hes on his way to hags and im talking to you after at the cafe luxembourg and he said that never felt schuster had it really when youre killin it. Inspector and its really special and too like for me you know being an actor im just like memorizing lines and like preparing when youre doing yes no there is no like you kind of prepare but no i do not memorize anything because theyre going to rewrite it between your live rehearsal and then when it goes live so you have to read the cue cards and i was like thats such a new thing its it really was a special rush that ive never felt before and honestly havent felt since it was it was it was incredible yeah there are certain guys with the cue cards who are genius you know they say brando towards the end of his career was put 3 by 5 cards on the guys head who he was it in the scene where. There were certain guys and there they were studied but phil hartman who was always a genius he could just flash on that peripherally pick up the cue and then extemporaneous as i used to sit there watch him and think well there is a control tower level chip yes he could keep it off of and you know all at the same side how is the meeting actually dress or how do you im sorry folks i have to ask because im always intrigued by s n l and young people hos that was how to dress girl how was the meeting between dress and air. Im honestly it was great it was they were kind of up in the air about what sketches they want to cut and what they want to keep then and you know but it was it was very positive the dress really worked and you know i had a great cast around he obviously did you know 99 percent of the work and i just had to just take the ball across the finish line kind of but you know it was. It was great it was it was really great and i look back on the experience off and its like one of the most memorable gold things i can look back on and my career that really meant something to me i think. Well its a big cultural icon and good for you because im telling you they dont ive been in a room where the kids not there and theyre talking about that they think theyre a player or not its pretty its pretty brutal so when they welcome you into that world theyve got some tips on you that youre at least going to roll with it and have fun and youre you know enough to take it in the because they can it anybody there are some people who just want front of america but again that im a im excited for you were talking Josh Hutcherson and the project now is future man but evidently im sorry brother im a 66 year old man im not as hip to the hunger games franchises i should be bored its not his role as pete on the hell are in the usually successful hunger games franchise and once again Josh Hutcherson right after the break on Dennis Miller plus one. Is youll be a reflection of reality. In a world transformed. What will make you feel safe. Isolation for community. Are you going the right way or are you being led. Away. What is true what is. In the world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the depths. Or a maybe in the shallows. Thousands of american men and women choose to serve in the countrys military and the decision a little sheltered lives every song came to a complete. The day that i was right to be instructed you know told to shut up what theyd kill me and i see how it destroyed my life any screamed at me and he made me come in and he grabbed my arm and he write me this berthing area if you take into account that women dont report because of the extreme retaliation and its probably somewhere near about half a 1000000 women have now been sexually assaulted in the us military rape is a very very traumatizing tat happen but ive never seen trauma like ive seen women who are veterans who have suffered military sexual trauma reporting rape is more likely to get the victim punished than the offender and almost 10 year career or chose very invested in and i gave a sex offender who was not even put to justice or put on the registry this is simply an issue of our and violent male sexual. Auditors for the large part of target whoever is there to prey upon whether thats men or women. So its seems wrong. But old rules just dont hold. Me all get to seep out these days becomes active. And engaged with equals betrayal. When something find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. Take folks welcome back to Dennis Miller plus one were going to justin hes got a new project deputes bailable stream now on hulu and by the way thats a sentence at the beginning of my career i would have never even set none of that existed it just amazes me down to me platforms they are that i can say its available to stream on hulu and i even kind of know whats going on since the score and to you know streaming up the project is future man but probably best known for his work as Peeta Mellark in the usually successful hunger games franchise before we get to that film i have to say brother as i see your as i see your. Curriculum vi take care you know robin was one of my friends and i loved him dearly and i see you were at work as robin in not film called r. V. How old were you at that time i was 12 i was 12 years old. God romanism he was just such a unique soul man like it was he was such a special human you know like those people who come along very rarely i think into this world and he was someone who just was so loving and such a heart and such a talent and such a model and the way that his mind worked was just you know for me it is something that i always look back on as an absolute special pleasure gifted movie that i got to answer to work with and. You know hes a legend and he lived up to that number sense. Yes the thing that beautiful thing about robin was i can guarantee you there was a part of him that met you as the hippest cat there on another part and met you as he was just still 12 you might have been actual 12 foot robin hood and yes we side bad i used to always think this is a kid who played alone with cigarette ends in the attic because he tapped into that solo beautiful elf and like happiness like that he was he was a peace or beautiful guy. Yeah. Magical best way to put it now tell me about how hard is it to get into this hunger games thing at the beginning that i had i assume these films have made billions worldwide maybe im wrong there but i think its certainly north of what may be north the 2000000000. 00 its become a huge cultural event and when asked about what thats like to handle it 1st off on the front end of it how do you get it how hard they make it to get it. It was pretty hard i mean you know i was at that point i was thinking 18 i did that 1st set of auditions and you know it was it was like we had multiple screen tests you know i signed a contract for 4 films before i did the final audition you know its a machine its a machine a lot of ways but you know for me to find something that i believe is very a beautiful story very interesting and has something to say about society and people believe in enough to spend a lot of money on making it is something thats cool to be a part of in this industry you see a lot of things that have you know hundreds of millions of dollars pumped into that are really saying a whole lot and its cool its fun its entertainment but to be a part of something that meant something in a way i think was was really special for me. Lets talk about Miss Lawrence and i find her well she seems like a cool kid im sorry i was a kid like im yoda here but you know i am not you know i do from a different generation but when i watch her i always saying well she seems to be such a natural funny young spirit and then she will in the serious films ive seen are unsocial locked into something i go well how did she get that wise about what its like to be a human in dilemma tell me it would tell me about your interaction with or do you stay in touch via digger your friends tell me yeah i mean i jen jens amazing shes also a fellow kentucky in her book from kentucky you know i went to prison minaj and. She was just a unique special human being like you know someone that really. Now i had something more to give she had a depth of understanding i dont know where the hell it came from or why she had it but she always had it. And working with her was an absolute delight she was someone that was always have a good time was always having fun with the crew always you know was in this together it was never like on the start each is a great person you know and thats who she is as a person as an artist she always finds a way to tap into such raw Human Emotion then you know we live in a time that theres a lot of manufactured you know productions money fashion actors and social media and all these things and i think that she was really from that in a way that she was a new fashion and felt very raw and genuine and working with her that immediate through her process and immediate through just being on set with her yeah i think she seems like an american authentic and i would say kentucky play some part in this i grew up not that far from there up the the river a little in pittsburgh from sense and i remember pittsburgh was a place that would not let you get. Too full of yourself you are completely i mean i think that being from. A place where becoming an actor and living that kind of dream is not really a reality. If you have that dream and that becomes a reality you sort of get brought back to that mentality in a way its always a piece of you you know theres always something of you thats rooted in these places that youre from in your experiences and your family and friends from that from that part of the country. I think absolutely i think i think a huge part of who all we are is is where were from and how we grew up and what we know from from those places. But i think its an interesting steaks and sort of between the midwest and the south so kind of lives in this in between place thats very interesting im so proud of being from kentucky and so much who i am has come from there and and i mean you know i think that the people of kentucky have you know a fortitude a strength that ive always you know connected to i think jen jen as well melissa i have been saying the hunger games but now the word bestie someone to go see the next one somebody told me that there might be a but be a pretty cool coming up my brother tell me about this because that the drumbeat as exciting the masses out here. Apparently i didnt interview about a week ago and someone asked me a question about a print book and i had literally no idea so that shows you about where i am not on the spectrum of knowing what the hell is going on. Im sure if you call it a group maybe thats the case and so you know i think its a world that can be explored much deeper and i am excited to read the books i dont i havent got big contact in any way to be a part of it if they did i would most likely say yes but you know was was was you it is going to excite were talking to Josh Hutcherson and the new show that you can stream on hulu is called future man right now were going back through some of his greatest says obviously the big one is to kill a mocking jay no sorry ive got my films confused. Well look. What one icy journey to the center of the earth i have to tell you josh when i was a kid that was my Favorite Movie like a set of look at it here i guess you day obviously you did the upgrade with the brand and i thought it was a nice effort for you know how some things lodged in your hard drive from your youth and thats always the chill favor but i dont know digital as part of your research did you ever go back and watch my eras journey to the center of the earth or now you know i didnt i read the book. And you know that was about it whos the whos that was 13 at the time you know it just happened and him down on his nose will lose another 2 stuck in a 1000 probably give it a tumble arent you stuck in you like you know you might give it give it a bounce one thing about being in something as big as youre in here with these hunger games josh says its funny when your kid and youre starting out maybe your kid in a white or something youre always dreaming about pole in the wonka ticket you know somewhere down the road and then youre in one that becomes so huge that its kind of it must be unsettling to some degree im not saying you run from the fame its part of it but also in that what what whats the transitional period like a little a little shaky a little nerve racking. Yeah i mean absolutely i think you know when i started acting when i was 9. Now im from kentucky and so at the idea of a famous person and what that meant wasnt even part of my headspace you know i when i found out that movies for a job that you could do you could be an actor or director or whatever i was like i want to do that and my family had no idea how to do and i got a call i personally i was 9 years old found a phone book and called an agency in Cincinnati Ohio and thats how i started. And all of a sudden be in a position of the hunger games which is you know such a level of notoriety an attention that i never anticipated its overwhelming you know its not at all what i set out to i want to be an actor i want to make movies and i never thought about that that would be you know part of what comes with it and you know its crazy like the idea of anonymity is hard to really fathom of what its like to lose it until its gone you know its a one of those things that you take for granted and you cant explain to somebody what its like you know as i was like you know a 1920 year old kid going into a restaurant and looked at me and knew me and i didnt have any shield between me you know its a very weird kind of thing to grapple with and at the time for me it was difficult and you know i was reclusive i didnt go anywhere and i hid and i didnt want that but in the years of the passengers ive grown to appreciate it on a much grander scale and recognize the luck that i have had to be in such a project even with a science officer was there as with everything to be a part of that and to allow myself to have the opportunity to continue past that its you know its subject its such a gift and im really lucky but it wasnt without its hard moments for sure. Now processing unit 1st is weird and i never was and obviously anything like that under games but i was i was set out for a while and i remember thinking i would i would walk in new york and somebody would say dennis and thats all thats so cool and id like it and then there was another part of my head that would be a shame that i liked it that much you know and i think you know who are you to get uppity about Something Like that and then the other person would say well just enjoy it its kind of fun and i spent the 1st 2 years of being famous kind in this weird dialogue in my head that i benchley went dumped on a shrink and figured it out but it is weird 1st to go from nobody knows me to kind well thats thats a little if you would yes thats for sure you know you feel very exposed i mean look its like you know the last thing in the world that any wants to hear about is some famous known person complaining about them when so hard but but but the reality is there are Amazing Things that come with this job and getting notoriety from incredible things that you can only dream of the things that you dont true love and upcoming as well and those are things that take you by surprise that you were not offer care for and did not expect. But you know all you can do is take both of them in stride and not lose yourself down to either find something that ive recognized in last couple years of how i kind of want to handle all that. Look at the look at the hatch of growed up and be unwise i know you were home schooled by your mom you shoot a great dame your mom so tell me about your mom did she put some of this wisdom and humility into it. I mean you know. Evident yes i mean and theres no way of denying that my my my parents are incredible and they you know they they always told me be grounded and they were always very real and their biggest will in life was treat others the way you want to be treated and thats kind of how i tried to always live my life but i think to just something about growing up on film sets and ive just been very lucky to be around great people you know from robin to Robert Zemeckis to tom hanks i these people that ive been so fortunate to work with have showed me the way of what to be like be graceful be grateful respectful and always be learning and thats something that ive tried to live live my life by as much as possible. Or brother your karma seems beautiful you seem like a good kid to me youve got a nice purity about should i go down the shore those are revealed to see the dodgers swat the ball lots and i hope we get this thing behind us and somewhere along the way or a dodger dog lying together managed like to know shaken your hands ever coming back but its been nice to meet you my friend and i appreciate your time but. Then yeah. There you go how much Josh Hutcherson and the new show it you can stream it on hulu is called future met then hes working with a pretty little production credit to work it was set broken so give it a tumble suns like an eclectic project thank you josh this is Dennis Miller plus anyone going much.
