Hi all,
I finished up Friday night a two day booking on the set of the new Eugene Levy, Steve Martin film "Cheaper By The Dozen II". Currently filming in Toronto.
I can't say a whole lot about the film, damn rules and all. But let me say, watching two guys with a combined comedy resume of more than two hundred projects in the last
thirty five years was a complete dream.
If you asked me, "hey wanna come out and be stuffed into a dank church basement with a hundred and fifty others, including ninety children. But, oh the kicker, you will have to react to the actions of two of the funniest men on the planet." What would you say? "Hell ya!"
Anyway, the only thing I can say about the set was that it was an easy two days sitting one row from two lengends perform a scene that ends with Steve Martin being held by his ankles over a movie theater balcony by Eugene Levy.
A stunt man was used for Mr. Levy's POV's other than that Steve Martin strapped on the harness and did his own pratt falls into the mat. Even at sixty! the man still has his timing.
Note, Steve Martin's 60th BD is the 14th of August according to IMDB, which I've included a link to so you can check out the complete cast list for this film. Just click on the post title.
Later,
Kenaz
