N
This new film your starring in is a romantic comedy, tell us what the storyline is about

JACK
it's basically a love triangle, two men fancy the same girl who is a proffesional softball player, one of the men is a major league pitcher and the other is a corporate executive

N
who plays who in the film

JACK
reese witherspoon characters name is Lisa and she's a proffesional softball player, Owen wilson plays a guy called Manny and he's a majour league pitcher, paul rudd is george in the film and he's a corporate exectutive and I play his dad who's a person who likes to let his son know what to be prepared for and in some parts of the film trys to talk some sense to him in some parts of the film.

N
what was it like to play that character

JACK
it was more layed back than most of my other films, when you get to my ege there's only certain charcters which you can play and the other disadvantage of it is the characters can be quite boring, not to play obviously thats the fun part, but just the description where you don't actually sound like your not going to do much in the film but I had fun making it.

N
You've been in romantic comedies before, in this do you play a funny person or are you careing

JACK
in some parts of the movie i'm funny, mostly caring though towards the son I have udring the film.

N
would you like to do another romantic comedy film or play play the same character again

JACK
I wouldn't mind although at some point I would like to make a change beacuse it can get boring being the same genre film playing the same kind of character, you know, in order to enjoy this job it's more fun and exiting to play different charcters in different genres film
