(vibrant music)
Adam: You really want this part, don't you?
Nicole: I do. I can go bottomless.
You're like, what.
Adam: What?
Nicole: Did I just say that?
I'm going to have to buy the DVD.
Adam: Exactly.
Nicole: Then we make money.
(fun bright music)
Nicole: I am here today
at my friend Adam Shankman's house.
Adam Shankman is a huge director and producer.
He's done movies like A Walk to Remember, 17 Again.
I just don't understand how he's
literally not asked me to be in one Step Up
and he's had four of them.
(bright drum music)
Adam: We have to get the production designer going
on a location scout.
Nicole: Hi.
Adam: Hi.
Voice on phone: Yeah.
Adam: Wait. I can't believe we're doing Step Up 5.
This is so crazy.
Voice on phone: I know.
Adam: I will talk to you later.
Voice on phone: It's going to be great.
Adam: Okay, bye honey.
Voice on phone: Okay, bye.
Nicole: Well, hi.
Adam: Hi.
Nicole: First of all.
Adam: Sorry. I'm just like stressing.
You can't even understand how hard it is
to cast every one of these movies.
Nicole: I also can't imagine knowing someone
that loves to dance
and not calling that person.
Adam: Are you speaking of yourself?
Nicole: You know that I'm a good dancer.
Adam: Have you seen the movies?
I mean, the choreography is really hard.
Nicole: Yeah.
I've seen every single one in the theatre.
Adam: But, this movie has all sorts of different dancing.
Nicole: Okay.
Adam: We have ballroom.
Nicole: Down.
Adam: We have tap.
Nicole: Down.
Adam: You're down with tap?
Nicole: I did it throughout all of the 80s.
Adam: Okay. I know this is going to sound
a little weird, but why not a little impromptu audition?
Nicole: So down.
(jazzy music)
Adam: What about some more …
like kind of hip hoppy stuff?
Nicole: Okay.
(hiphop music)
Adam: Oh.
Nicole: Wooh!
Adam: Okay.
Nicole: Wo-wooh!
Adam: Good. Listen, you are so musical.
Let's try you out with a more of an acting vibe, maybe.
Nicole: Okay, cool.
Adam: You're walking now through
a giant box filled with honey.
(fun music)
Nicole: Ugh, eww, sticky, gross, smells good.
Adam: You added dialogue,
which was not part of it.
Nicole: Because I can be physical and talk.
Adam: Let's do some actually scene work.
Let me set this up.
It's a rainy night in a log cabin
and a young couple run in from the frigid weather.
The two have never kissed.
And action.
It doesn't look like these guys
are going to make it tonight
because of all the snow.
Nicole: Do I have an accent, or ...
Adam: You can.
Nicole: Okay.
Adam: If you want.
Nicole: (Russian accent) Whoa, it's freezing in here.
How are we supposed to make fire without wood?
Adam: Come here and get close,
otherwise you'll freeze.
Nicole: Isn't there more than one blanket?
Adam: No.
Harold opens his blanket to invite her in.
Nicole: No, no, no.
Adam: But soon can't handle the cold anymore
(bright music)
and jumps into the blanket to snuggle up
in Harold's manly warmth.
Nicole: So warm.
(sound of scratching on record)
Adam: What the hell are you doing?
Nicole: I mean, I was just trying to like get a job.
Isn't that how you get a job?
Adam: Not in my movies.
Nicole: No one's ever slept with you for a role,
not even a little tickle, a little cup?
Adam: No.
Nicole: Twisting of the ***?
Adam: No.
Nicole: A Cleveland steamer?
Adam: Nope.
Nicole: Cincinnati bow tie?
Adam: No, never happened.
Nicole: So tell me, you go into an audition,
what's your vibe?
Adam: You just know your material,
have a good attitude and be humble
and just prepare.
Prepare as much as possible.
Nicole: I feel like girls shouldn't
wear like red lipstick to auditions.
Adam: Yeah, you don't want your lips wearing you.
Nicole: Yeah.
Adam: You know what I mean?
(light music)
Nicole: I can tell by this view you're very rich.
Adam: I mean, I've worked hard.
Nicole: Do you feel like people want to sleep with you more
now that you're rich?
Adam: Yeah.
Nicole: Yeah.
Adam: For sure. That helped.
Nicole: If you did decide that you wanted
to start sleeping with women,
would I be in your top 30 choices?
Adam: Yes.
Nicole: Okay.
Who would you rather work with,
Me or Jennifer Lawrence?
Adam: Jennifer Lawrence.
Nicole: How many years do you think it'll be
until I win an Oscar?
Adam: Quite a few.
Nicole: When you're directing,
do you ever just want to chill, go back to bed?
Adam: Most of the time.
Nicole: Who would play me in a movie?
Adam: Jennifer Lawrence.
(fun music)
Nicole: All right well, I know that I killed it today.
Adam: Your passion is really speaking to me,
so let me talk to the people in production
and we'll jump on it.
Nicole: I'll send you my dates.
Adam: Your dates.
Nicole: And my hair and makeup people.
Adam: Mm-hmm.
Nicole: Can we film this in Europe?
Adam: No, I don't think so.
Man: Legs up. You're going to bend one knee.
Come down, grab up and ...
Nicole: That was a great view.
Man: It was a good view.
Nicole: Yeah. I actually wasn't looking
at what you were doing,
so can you just do it one more time, please?
Man: (laughs)
