  • Jake Johnson loves to act, but he has no desire to be in the limelight. He'd much rather sit in the back seat on a fun job and enjoy the ride than hold an entire franchise on his shoulders.

      I kinda got the impression that everyone involved in that show thought it was Zooey's show for like, the first few episodes (hence the name), but fairly quickly the showrunners/the network/whoever realised that the rest of the cast (but ESPECIALLY Jake Johnson and Max Greenfield) were equally talented actors (arguably moreso), and it quickly became an ensemble comedy.

    "I never want a franchise. No interest. Pass -- I wouldn't even take a meeting on it." Jake Johnson has discovered a key thing that most actors never figure out -- being the "star" and the driving force of a show or movie or franchise can drain you because you're caught up in a whole Hollywood machine. Jake appreciates observing and interacting from a special vantage point that's just off to the side of the spotlight, and he's probably a better performer because of it.
    While New Girl seems like it was initially conceived as a lead female character and then the other actors in supporting roles, it morphed over time into an ensemble cast. The creators were smart to flesh out those other characters, and all of those actors (especially Jake Johnson) delivered great performances.

    It’s refreshing to hear someone be content with their work and the role they play in life (quite literally in an actor’s case). We’re always conditioned to want more, and it’s exhausting. He loves his craft but he doesn’t want the responsibility that comes with being a megastar, and I get it!

Sam and Sean also make the best questions based on their extensive research of their guests. Absolutely amazing and a joy to watch.

    He's so great in Stumptown! It didn't take long for the audience to really sympathize with his character. I mean, we all love Cobie, but with the inclusion of Jake Johnson, it gives the show so much warmth and heart that it gives the show real foundation. The other shows on NBC are meh, sorry...but I knew Stumptown would be so great. I watched the first three with my 75 year old dad and he was like, "when does this show come one again?" lol. When you can appeal to a wide variety of ages...you've got the makings of a great show. All the best, Jake!
