If you happen to have something against the former “Human Giant” comedian turned comedy guest-star extraordinaire, Aziz Ansari, be forewarned, he will be everywhere in 2009 and it seems like the Apatow-crew and all its related members love him too.
“In the summer, I filmed a part in ‘Observe and Report,’ a new movie about Seth Rogen being a mall cop that should be out in April. I play a lotion stand operator named Kevin that loves Chick-fil-A (a trait I brought over from my real life). I also filmed a small part in this movie ‘I Love You, Man’ starring Paul Rudd and Jason Segel, where I play one of Rudd’s fencing pals. . “In the past few months, I’ve been shooting on ‘Funny People,’ Judd Apatow’s new movie and that has been amazing. I play a standup comedian named Randy that is very high energy in a Katt Williams like way and is obsessed about telling jokes about receiving fellatio. It’s been a lot of fun, because I was able to write all my character’s standup and Judd let me bring a lot of my own ideas to the character.”
