Plenty of performers take an interest in writing in order to help better craft roles in which they can then star. An excellent example is Rashida Jones, whose screenwriting debut, the Sundance Film Festival-minted Celeste and Jesse Forever, finds her starring opposite Andy Samberg, as one half of a married couple attempting to gracefully transition from coupledom to amicable divorce. With Will McCormack, however, Jones’ writing partner on the project, it’s almost the exact opposite. He’s an actor (he even has a part in the movie, as quirky pot dealer Skillz) comfortably transitioning to life away from the camera. I had a chance to talk to McCormack one-on-one recently, about working with his ex-girlfriend, mock-masturbating tiny cylindrical objects, and his next collaboration with Jones, Frenemy of the State. The conversation is excerpted over at ShockYa, so click here for the full read.
