. He discussed working with Jerry Seinfeld over the years and making a comedy-first biopic. Unfrosted is now streaming on Netflix.
The whole movie was just us getting together during the pandemic to have some sort of social life and to talk about things and laugh. We started talking about this idea, and we started writing it down. To be honest, we never thought we were really going to make it. It was just something to do while all of us were hunkered down waiting for this pandemic to end. Those little things that you mentioned, again, I harken back to writing with Jerry and the staff on Seinfeld. It’s the same thing.
Yeah, Butchie — Bailey Sheetz — and Cathy — Eleanor Sweeney. They auditioned and, very quickly, we saw these young actors and went, “There you go.” It was actually some of the easiest casting in the movie. They each stood out in their respective part. They were each such a delight to have on set. The scene you’re talking about, the dumpster scene, required what we thought was going to be some stunt work, jumping out of the garbage truck and into the dumpster.
First of all, credit to Jerry, who persevered with this scene, and I’ll confess, there were times when I didn’t believe that this scene was going to be worth the time and money in the movie. And Jerry said, “No, because we’re making this scene. It’s going to be great.” And now, he was right. It’s one of the funniest scenes in the movie, and you’re right.
Jon Hamm, it feels like he’s in everything. Every time I turn on my TV, he’s in everything. With everybody in this cast, showing up to work every day was really like a comedy writer’s dream come true. You walk in one day, there’s Melissa McCarthy and she’s making us laugh with her improvised lines. And the next day, you’ve got Jon Hamm in there, and then you’ve got Cedric the Entertainer — every day was like … it was such a dream job for all of us, to come and show up for that.
