Luke Wilson on Old School, Legally Blonde and Wes Anderson

Episode Description

Luke Wilson breaks down his new Netflix golf comedy The Hawk, plus Bottle Rocket, Legally Blonde, Old School, and The Royal Tenenbaums. Luke Wilson joins Scene Stealers to talk about his new Netflix series The Hawk, co-starring Will Ferrell, Jimmy Tatro, Molly Shannon, and David Hornsby. Luke breaks down how he got the role, the rise of golf's popularity, why comedies used to have more room to breathe than they do today, and what it was like reuniting with Will Ferrell nearly two decades after Old School. He also looks back at Bottle Rocket and how it flopped at the box office, nearly ended his and Owen Wilson's acting careers, and later became a cult classic praised by Martin Scorsese + the story of how the Legally Blonde writers fought to cast him as Emmett Richmond, working with Gene Hackman on The Royal Tenenbaums, and reacting to Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood.
