HW: There are some great stunts in this film. Was that you?
AS: No, whenever it got dangerous, there were about 15 other Zohans on set.
HW: Tell me you at least did the splits once, for the poster.
AS: Yeah. One time. One time.
HW: You were in great shape for this film. What was the most challenging part?
AS: Working out that long. I hated that. I had to do it every day. And not eating!
HW: Well it certainly paid off. Did you have to do anything in particular to work out your derriere?
AS: That’s a tough one. The ass muscle is a different kind of muscle and it has its own mind. It was a lot of just keeping it tight. My wife has huge fingers so she would place it in a cracked area of the body and say “Hold onto this thing for awhile and walk around the room.” So I would do that an hour and 45 minutes a day [laughs].
