It just took forever.Īuthenticity seemed to be very important to the filmmakers, from casting you and Shari but also hiring your real 60 Minutes crew to appear as the 60 Minutes crew in the film. I guess what Dean and the other filmmakers on the project wanted was what you see, which was to fully incorporate 60 Minutes - from the music and the logo to our clock and having me in our own studio. Shortly after that, the approval came through. Then, when Shari and I were out working on a story together and I asked, “I guess that didn’t happen, right?” And she said, “No, no it’s in the works,” which surprised me. I actually thought it had gone away for good and I assumed that it wasn’t going to happen because if it were, I would have heard something. I don’t remember exactly how long, maybe a year or more. She had told me that she’d gone through a kind of strenuous process to get approval to do that and to be called “a 60 Minutes producer.” Then I agreed to do it, and it went away. Well, first of all, Shari had already agreed to be in the film as a voiceover. How closely did you follow that process? Did Shari give you incremental updates as it went along? She said that she thought it would be fun and a good thing to do.įilmmaker Dean Fleischer-Camp and his producer Elizabeth Holm have said that securing 60 Minutes and your participation was a multiyear process. She is one of the great 60 Minutes producers, and she told me that Marcel was popular, well-known and quite famous - more famous than I was. She described it to me, and I thought, well, this is very strange.

I first heard about Marcel when Shari Finkelstein, the producer I work with regularly at 60 Minutes, called me and asked, “Would you want to be in a movie about Marcel the Shell with Shoes on?” I said, “What? Who?” When she called, I had not only never seen any of the YouTube clips, but I had not even heard about it. When did you first hear the name Marcel the Shell and what did you think of him? The film is lighting up at the box office, earning more than $3 million. Marcel and his grandmother, Nana Connie, in A24’s Marcel the Shell.
