Also, the name Future for a hip hop guy (Pfifer)

#Proof eminem 8mile movie
side note about that last one: my friends older brother told me the fifth time I’d watched the movie that she didn’t win any bingo. It ends in a big tournament!īest scene: all the rap battles, the house party scene, the driving around Detroit scenes, Mom “wins at bingo” The first rap song ever to win an Academy Award. It still has: Eminem, Anthony Mackie (his first film role) Michael Shannon, Kim Bassinger, Brittany Murphy, Mekhi Pfifer. Quentin Tarentino was originally supposed to direct this, but had a conflict. It was great.The pitch: The 2nd biggest opening weekend for an R-Rated movie ever. Eventually we were just like, 'we should go.' We are not going to get this role. And then Jason got up, and the exact same thing: 'yo what's up? It's me, Cheddar Bob.' And we just-I actually think we didn't finish. Like, auditioning is so embarrassing, but having your friend there in front of you-and we were both in that moment just like, what were we thinking? Why did we do this? We barely got through it on my side. We were just like, this was such a bad idea. As soon as I was like, 'yo what's up it's me, Cheddar Bob,' we both just started laughing hysterically. And as soon as we were, like, in the room and started-I went first. And it seemed like-we both were like, I think we actually are doing pretty good at this. We prepared the scenes, and as we were preparing it alone, it was-we were actually doing very well. And I was going to call you and ask if you could read the Eminem role for me.' And I was like, 'well, that's perfect.' So we actually had a sleepover at my house that night. And I was like, 'can you read this with me?' And he was like, 'oh, that's funny because I also have an audition for Cheddar Bob. I'm good friends with Jason Segel, so I called Jason.
And so what the actors were told to do is-it was incumbent on them to-it was their responsibility to bring in a person to read with the other side of the scene.
And I think she just didn't-felt uncomfortable reading Eminem's lines, basically. You know, this casting director didn't want to hire someone to do it with her and did not want to do it herself because Eminem was the other person in the scene. And often, when you go in to audition for a film, there's someone who reads with you.
During a May 2021 interview with Terry Gross on the National Public Radio program "Fresh Air," Seth Rogen remembered that both he and his friend Jason Segel auditioned for the role of "Cheddar Bob," even though they were fairly sure that neither of them was right for the role: "So we were auditioning for a character in 8 Mile-I believe his name is Cheddar Bob-who is, like, a friend of Eminem's character, who's Rabbit.
