My dad's Jack Michael Murray, so you might want a photo, I don't know
0:04
I was like, no, buddy, you don't know. That's not what we do, thanks, kid
0:10
Awesome. It's exactly the kind of scene partner you would want to have. I mean, she was a great leader in both films, but the first time she had a different job
0:16
and her job was to make me more comfortable, right? Even though I didn't know that, but she was doing everything in her power
0:22
to try to help me get more into character and help me feel comfortable working with her
0:26
This time, we just let loose and just kind of go for it
0:30
Take chances and just let us catch whatever we can on camera
0:34
And boom, that'll either make it or not make it in the movie. I couldn't get into excitement mode or anything else
0:40
It was more ytical mode because there was a lot more questions for Jake than there was answers in the beginning
0:45
It was more of, look, we want to get Jake back in here. What are we going to do
0:50
And we can't move things around too much because, as you can see, it's a very complicated house of cards
0:54
you move one everything's coming down so we sat down and just really thought about all right where
1:00
has he been for the past 22 years what's jake's been up to and that was really the ytical part
1:05
and it was just uh it was a love fest it was a free i loved it it an unbelievable blessing like i so grateful to have fallen into a bunch of really great roles on great shows I only became an actor because I wanted to make
1:21
people happy. I wanted to give people that outlet from whatever it was that was going on in their
1:26
life so that they could just kind of forget about the hard stuff and go, okay, cool, I'm tuning in
1:30
to my favorite show, bro. So to be a part of whether it was One Tree Hill or Cinderella Story
1:35
or Freaky Friday or whatever it might have been. To know that we've done that and that we've given that
1:41
that is so fulfilling. So fulfilling. And as an actor, I hope that that's everybody's dream
1:45
is to just create work that people love. I feel like we've done some of that so far
1:50
I've got little kids, you know, so we watch a lot of cartoons. But I mean, if I was going to look
1:55
depends on the time of the year, depends on where I'm at. You know, Back to the Future for me is just always good
2:00
If it's on, I'm just diving in. And, you know, around the holidays, I'll always watch Christmas Vacation
2:06
It just brings me back, just gives me so much joy. But a lot of times, it's just cartoons with the kids
2:13
And we're real big into Big City Greens. Full heart moment. It's a full heart moment
2:19
I mean, I never really thought about it, but it's kind of what you dream of. You know just to see those little smiling faces and to be there I was so proud of them They handled themselves so well in a complicated environment And I thought if they ever going to go to one of these this is the perfect one
2:36
It should be their first great environment. They got all sorts of cool snacks at the end
2:42
They were sugared up. They have live music and just a really great venue
2:48
A great movie. My son was laughing out loud. Loved it. and so if you're gonna take him out and we get to do it as a pack i love having my pack around
2:56
and so this was the perfect way to do it they're like dad you are not cool and um and that's okay
3:02
and i you know what they'll keep me grounded and i appreciate that but i you know let's lean into
3:09
more movies that maybe they're watching that's my goal is to go in that direction and uh maybe make
3:15
something where they're like all right dad's kind of cool okay you're cool today dad like that'd be
3:21
fun like a Sonic the Hedgehog that might do it. We're in Puerto Rico. He was really
3:27
young I guess he was what year was that? Probably 2020 or 2021? Somewhere around
3:32
there. Anyway he was probably six or seven and he didn't understand the rules
3:37
and so he kind of went out of his way to walk up to some girls in bikinis as you do who happen to be in the demographic and say hey my dad Chad Michael Murray so you might want a photo I don know
3:49
I was like no buddy you don't know that's not what we do things kid oh I mean honestly
3:55
laughs for days my wife and I we were cracking up about that for forever and you know honestly
4:02
the kid's got some the kid's got some skills he's got some great people he's great speaking
4:07
with women like he gets out there we went to a um we're at the university of uh florida and he was
4:16
just sitting there just relaxed talking to like a group of five or six girls they're hanging on
4:21
every word it was so freaking cute like he's a little charmer he's a little charmer let's go
4:27
outside of the things we've already heard of i would say chosen so chosen was a tv series it's
4:32
actually where I met my wife. We both worked on that. It was such a good show. It was such a good
4:39
show. A show that deserved a much bigger audience. It was so intense. You left every day exhausted
4:45
You left it all on the dance floor. And the premise was genius. So chosen
