The Los Angeles Times interviewed Mel Brooks, who co-created “Get Smart” with Buck Henry in 1965, about the upcoming Steve Carell action-comedy. Here’s a clip:
It’s got a good director, Peter Segal. Wonderful director. The writers were great. The producers were young and aggressive and smart. But the brilliance is Steve Carell. To choose a guy who’s right in the Don Adams groove. You couldn’t get a better guy than Steve Carell. And yet he doesn’t do Don Adams. He does none of his delivery. He just does Steve Carell.
Check out the full interview here! Get Smart opens in theaters on June 20.
