Meryl Streep rejected "The Devil Wears Prada" initially because she was “ready to retire.” “I knew it was going to be a hit. They made an offer. I said ‘No. I’m not going to do it.' I wanted to see if I doubled my ask, if they didn’t want, I was ready to retire.”

Tom Holland shares how he got to tell Zendaya that Nolan wanted her as Athena in The Odyssey. Tom Holland: Then at my meeting with Chris, he asked me a question. He said, “Do you mind if I ask you a question and please don’t be offended by my asking?” And I thought he was going to ask me like, “Can we put like lifts in your shoes or something make you taller?” I didn’t know what he was going to say. And he went, “Would you be offended if I asked you if I asked to play Athena?” I was like, “Why would I be offended?” Tom Holland: And yeah, I just said, “Oh, mate, I would be honored. That’s amazing. I’m sure she would love to.” And then I asked him, I said, “Do you want me to tell her?” And he said, “Yeah.” And then I went home and she asked me about the meeting and I just said to her, I said, “You should read the script again.” And she was like, “Well, I read it.” I said, “No, no, no. Just trust me. Like, you should read it again.” And she was like, “What are you talking about?” I said, “Just read it again, but read Athena like really closely.” And the little corners of her mouth… Interviewer: YESS, IT’S MY FAVORITE. It was amazing.

Kevin Costner said he left Yellowstone over scheduling conflicts after staying for five seasons instead of the three he originally agreed to. Kevin Costner: I'm not in it. I was in it for five years. I guess I could be in it again if, um, if the planets wanted to line up, which means the storyline, the script. And then, I want to work more than once a year. Um, and to do that, the times have to be set aside for things. And when that couldn't happen, then that can't work for me anymore. Howard Stern: Well, that's a ballsy move. I mean, what a great show, what a great character you developed. Kevin Costner: That was great. Kevin Costner: Yeah, Cole is fabulous. And Kelly was great, and it was perfect. Look, I love this, I love the show. I went and sold it for them before it was a show. Taylor wrote a beautiful script. I went overseas, I stared at 300 people, and they go, "What is the show?" And I said, "I don't know. I think it could be good." "Are you going to be in it?" I said, "Uh..." I said, "I'll be in it for three years, but then I'm not sure." But I said this, "I think it's good."

Ed O'Neill reveals Craig T. Nelson gambled and lost the biggest role in modern television history "They offered the part to Craig T. Nelson, not me. I read the script and thought, 'Oh no, I got to do this.' I called my manager and said, 'Mark, I think I have to do this.' And he said, 'Too late, it's out to Craig T. Nelson.' I said, 'Okay, well I'll watch it, it's going to be a good show.'" "A week later he called and said, 'They're back to you,' because Craig passed. Craig wanted some upfront money, like pay me for six and I'll do your one. He must have passed assuming they'd come back to him." "They said, 'They're back to you,' and I said, 'Make the deal.' He said, 'You're not the star.' I said, 'I know.' He said, 'They're not paying your quote.' I said, 'I don't care, it's a hit. We'll get even later and then we'll get ahead. And I was right."

Lady Frost explains to us why she signed with MLW. "I was only a free agent for a matter of hours, we can say, which feels pretty good. Honestly, they called right away and it was the phone call that I think I needed to hear. They have been following me for a long time. I showed up to a taping about six years ago. I wasn't even an extra, just to get my name out there. They remembered me and have been following my journey. I posted, I think, which created a good amount of interest, a promo package and vignette, and they said, ‘We love your work.’ I said, ‘That's the direction that I want to go. This is kind of where I see my career going.’ They wanted to be on board with letting me be creative and who I want to be as an artist and pro wrestler. So I loved the call and I thought it was a really great fit for right now. So that's where I landed."

James McAvoy admits he lied to his agent and pretended to love the X-Men script before accepting the role "X-Men came in. I went, 'Where's it filming?' They went, 'Pinewood.'" "It's 40 minutes from my front door. I was like, awesome. And I was also like, X-Men, great, I loved the cartoon when I was a kid, that'd be brilliant." "I loved the movies that came out in 2000, Bryan Singer's original movies, they were brilliant.And I was like, what part? And they were like, it's Charles. And I was like, great, I get to be fucking Jean-Luc Xavier, it's gonna be brilliant." "They said the script is under wraps, so you need to go to this restaurant and they'll give it to you, and you read it, and then you have to give them an answer quick." "So I went, it was like a chain restaurant, it wasn't even fancy, not like a McDonald's, but it was like, you know, like a Burger King." "And I go in and I meet Matthew Vaughn, and he has a quick chat with me, and then I sit and read the script." "Nobody tells me that there's only like 60 pages of it at this point, and I feel like it's good, Jane Goldman did a great job, it's good, but it's incomplete, really. Don't know where it's going." "But I was like, this is a three-picture deal, they're paying well, it's 40 minutes from my front door, I'm a fan of the original material, I get to be young Jean-Luc Xavier. I was like, this is a no-brainer." "So my agent called me, and she was like, what do you think? And I was like, it's a work of genius, we're doing it."

Gillian Anderson says she lied about her age to land The X-Files because she was too young for the role "I said I was 27, 'cause the character was 27" "To begin with, I thought there was no way in hell they were going to cast me anyway, because I had done nothing before" "And this was going to be a very big show, or they were hoping it was going to be a big show, and it was." "But putting the responsibility of a professional onto the shoulders of a 24-year-old with no experience, in my head, seemed just so outlandish that maybe they would do that for a 27-year-old with no experience." "I don't know. So I said I was 27, like the character, and I don't know if that contributed to doing the trick, but it didn't cross my mind that I shouldn't or wouldn't lie to them, because I wanted the job."

Gregg Popovich says Don Nelson taught him how to negotiate his first San Antonio contract and got him an additional $250,000 which helped him pay for his house “When I went back to San Antonio and they hired me there, I got a five-year contract at X, and it went up $50,000 each year. I said, ‘Well, I’ve got to go home and talk to my wife, and I’ve got a couple calls to make.’ And of course, Nelly was the call.” “So I told him the deal. He said, ‘So what are you going to do?’ I said, ‘I’m loving being at Golden State, but it is a pretty good offer and deal and all that.’” “He said, ‘You big dummy, Popo, you’re going back there, and this is how you’re going to do it. You call that committee and you say, add $50,000 to my first year, and then from there $50,000 on top of that. So in the end, after five years, you will have made $250,000, and that’ll pay for your house.’” “That’s how he thought. So I said, ‘Okay.’ I went back and I made the phone call, and I was like a 12-year-old. I was, ‘I was wondering, I thought maybe if you guys could…’” “The gentleman on the other end of the phone said, ‘What do you want?’ I finally spit it out. In two seconds, he said, ‘Okay.’” “And I remembered what Nelly told me: ‘They already offered you the job. They’re not going to start over again and get somebody else, so just do it.’ And so I did it.”

A person said, 'Well, I hardly think that's the problem. We're long already, and you want to add more minutes?' And I said, 'Yeah, I actually do.'" "They said, 'Well, how are you going to do that?' I said, 'By taking 28 minutes out, and I'm going to put 12 back in.' "They said, 'Well, I hardly think that's possible.' And I said, 'Really?' And they said, 'Yeah, well, how are you going to do that?' I said, '20-15 seconds at a time, I'm going to do it.'"

I’m not a big horror guy. I’m just too scared to watch horror movies’” “I said, ‘If I can rewrite the script, put my spin on it and direct it, I’ll do the movie.’ I had to pitch the studio, I think, 54 times before they said yes” “Someone said, ‘Sorry, is Jim from The Office going to direct this movie?’ I went, ‘It’s John, but we’ll get there’ and then they finally let me direct it”

😑 “You know, when I did the 250, there was nothing I could do. It was 250. It was 250. So I can't see -- that was my baby. The country happened to be 250 years old. But what I did do is during my first term, I got the Olympics, and I got the Great Soccer. You know that whole deal, right? I got -- we call it soccer. They call it football. I got them both. I got the Olympics. First, I got the Olympics, and I got it. I was president. And I said, you know, it's a shame. It's a shame. I got the World Cup, and I have the Olympics, and I did it. And you have no idea. President Obama didn't want to make a call to the Olympics. You know why? Because he went to Switzerland or wherever, and he said, you know, if a president goes to get the Olympics, you have to have a deal. You have to be chosen. He went there, and he came in fourth, so he hated them, I guess. And he was unwilling to make a call, and they called me up. The Democrats called me up, actually, from Los Angeles, and I said, I'll do it. I made the call, and I couldn't get the people off the phone because they were so starved for love, because nobody would call them from -- anyway, we made a deal. I got the Olympics. Then we got the World Cup with Johnny. We got the World Cup, and I got them both, and I looked at my people. I said, isn't it a shame? I got these two, but it wasn't in the next four years. It was right after that, and the one after that. And I got the Olympics, and I got the World Cup, and we also have 250, so that's a pretty wild term. But I got these two things that are incredible. Nobody else could have done it. I'm telling you, everybody wanted it. Nobody could have done it. And I said, and I won't be president, because I'll be president for four more years, but it won't be -- and then they cheated and rigged the election. They rigged -- you know, they don't even turn off the cameras when I say that now, because now they know it's true, too. But they knew it was true before. Remember, the cameras used to immediately turn off. You see all those beautiful red lights go off. Now I can say whatever I want, because then they know it's true. But they knew it was true before. It's fake news. That's why they call it. But you know what? This term is much more consequential than if I had done it the more traditional way. This was slightly harder, believe me. It's slightly more dangerous, because they're criminals on the other side that tried to put your president in jail and went after him, just like they do in third-world countries. And we all beat em together. We beat em because our level of popularity was so high.”

😑 “You know, when I did the 250, there was nothing I could do. It was 250. It was 250. So I can't see -- that was my baby. The country happened to be 250 years old. But what I did do is during my first term, I got the Olympics, and I got the Great Soccer. You know that whole deal, right? I got -- we call it soccer. They call it football. I got them both. I got the Olympics. First, I got the Olympics, and I got it. I was president. And I said, you know, it's a shame. It's a shame. I got the World Cup, and I have the Olympics, and I did it. And you have no idea. President Obama didn't want to make a call to the Olympics. You know why? Because he went to Switzerland or wherever, and he said, you know, if a president goes to get the Olympics, you have to have a deal. You have to be chosen. He went there, and he came in fourth, so he hated them, I guess. And he was unwilling to make a call, and they called me up.

Trump: Everything was going great. The economy was great. I hate to make this excursion, but we're going to have to do it. And I actually thought the numbers would be worse. I thought that it would go up more than it did. So I wanted to put out that fire and I said, you know, if I do that, oil prices will go up, the economy will go down a little bit. I thought it would be worse, much worse. Actually, I thought there was a chance it could be much worse. It’s not bad.

Tobi: If you don't read books, you live a lifetime. If you read books, you live a thousand, right? David: I'm going to interrupt you real quick because I took notes on this podcast six years ago. This is the first time I came across you and you said something that I absolutely love, and I had in my notebook, and I went to find when I took it. It was 2020, and you said, "Books are the closest thing you ever come to finding cheat codes for real life. You can access the entire learnings of someone else's career in a few hours." Tobi: It tracks, doesn't it? David: I dedicate my life to this, so of course, I'm going to agree with that. Tobi: Absolutely. I really think we need to shout this more from the rooftops, right? The one weird trick seems to be just read books.

“A few years later, I become a comedian and I'm like, ‘I'm going to be like Eddie. I'm going to go up in front of a Black crowd.’ And I went up and I did my thing and I got offstage and I was like, ‘I am never going to do that again.’ Black people are mean. They don't let you get to the stage. They already heckle. They are going to have a good time with or without you. That is what I learned. But in that education that you gave me — and he informed me as a comedian — that I wanted to make everybody laugh,” said Bill Burr, who reveals he saw “Raw” live stage at 18, as he honored Eddie Murphy at last night’s AFI Life Achievement Awards.

Kevin James says he fasted for 41½ days and lost 60 pounds for his daughter “Forty-one and a half days. Water and a little salt in the water, like a little electrolytes. When I lock on, I can do something” “It was mental. I felt so bad for my daughter. I said, I'm going to do this for you. It was something that I could do and apply it to, and it was so emotionally tied into me. I started fasting, and I didn't say, I'm going to do 40 days. I just said, I'm going to do whatever I can. I'm going to start fasting right now” “I was praying for it. I mean, I was worried. I did like four or five days, and I was getting through it, but I was wanting to get off it. Then I was like, I got to start to eat because I'm really hungry. And I talked to my daughter. She goes, ‘Have you been fasting for me?’” “And I go, ‘Yeah.’ And she goes, ‘Thank you so much.’ And I literally went, ‘Okay, I got to keep going.’ I couldn't stop then, so I just kept going, a day at a time. You know, just do it. But it's amazing how your body... you don't need food as long as you have fat on you. For me, I lost, I think, like 60 pounds”
