Dylan O’Brien recalls first meeting with CurbYourEnthusiasm creator-star Larry David for a short improv session over Zoom to test for the role of, well, Dylan O’Brien
Larry first meets Dylan at his band’s rock show, where his loud music forces Larry to stuff tissues in his ears.
O’Brien, seen primarily in dramatic and action roles, was keen to show off his comedic side. “It’s probably the last thing anyone would expect from me,” he says. “But it’smy sense of humor. I love taking the piss out of myself. Even in my old sketches, I would always play alternate versions of myself that were totally not me.” He notes that he didn’t want to play himself as “the typical douchey actor,” but one whose sensitivity and good intentions can often be misdirected and misunderstood.
He also says that his scene partner was equally humble, not the kind of comic performer who wants all the attention and the biggest laughs for himself — much less the irascible version of Larry David he plays on TV. “Larry has no ego, which is so rare for a guy in comedy,” O’Brien says. “And by the way, he was cuddling with all of the dogs off camera.”
