'Model Citizen'; Gino at the Movies

Oh, my God. What happened? Are you okay? Yes, I am. All right. Okay, what do you need? What do you need? Alcohol would be great and gauze. Okay. I'm going to write here this is fine here, yeah? And gauze, you said gauze here. Yeah. Okay, I'm ready. Aaaaaah! They're at the all-night cafe on Fifth. All teams en route. Now. God, what happened? That's good. You need to tell me what's going on. People that want to kill him coming now. Well, that's intense. Gino joining us now with a closer look at the new sci-fi crime thriller Model Citizen. Just the latest project in this genre for star Emmanuelle Shrieky. And Gino, you actually got to chat with her. Yes, we know her from Entourage. And so just like audiences are on the edge of their seat in watching this movie, she said it felt the same way when she was reading the script. Look at how happy you are. You know, you're not under stress like in the movie. No, definitely not like in the movie. A little bit. All right, so let's talk about this movie. As an audience, we're wondering, where is this going? What is going on? Can you tell me what you're like when you're reading the script? I was like, oh, my God, what is happening? What is going on? I need to read this again. Literally, I read it twice. The first time, I was like, whoa, okay, this is cool. Second time, I just needed to read it just to make sure that I, like, understood. Because there is a little bit of, like, a game within a game element of this film. Right. Right. Which was, you know, for sure, one of the things that attracted me to it. Okay. And yeah, there was a lot to chew on. So I'm always curious, too. So you're reading it and I'm sure you're picturing things of what they look like. When the movie is shot, how close are you to your vision? Oh, that's such a good question. I'm always a little bit surprised, to be honest with you, because I think like how I interpret something is going to be pretty different to what the production designers come up with or what the director imagines. But it always ends up being better than what I could have imagined. So I was going to have you direct the next movie of your choice. But since you said that, now we're going to just keep you acting. Yeah. For now, let's keep acting. I like that. Well, anyone watching will also recognize her co-star in this, Aaron Eckhart. Yeah, he's too good looking. I don't like that. But for her, it was a career highlight. What do you think about your co-star working with Aaron Eckhart? I mean, you know, it's a shame about his looks. It's really too bad that he's so so hard to look at? Yeah. He's so hard to look at. I mean, and like, it's really too bad that he's like so talented. You know, it was. Listen, I just describe it as like it was a real highlight for me to be able to work with Aaron. I think when you're working with somebody at that caliber who has had the career that he has and it's like you go, well, no wonder you've had the career you've had. He's so amazing and he just elevates everything. And, um... It was really inspiring to work in such close proximity with him, you know, to break down a scene together, to like talk about a scene and like figure out the mechanics of it and how we were going to do it. It was like, for me, it was a dreamy situation. Gino and Aaron, just two guys so hard to look at. Let me tell you this. I was talking to Aaron Eckhart about before he was famous. I said, did you ever meet anyone famous? He said he was walking down the street in New York, saw Harrison Ford, said, I'm an actor. Harrison Ford said, let's go in this coffee shop. You got five minutes. Really? Oh, that's so cool. Okay, that makes me like Harrison Ford that much more. Very, very cool. All right, Gino, always a pleasure to see you. See you tomorrow.
