We spoke w/ RobLowe about DogGone, working with the Daniel Day-Lewis of dogs, the surprise success of ‘Tommy Boy,’ his podcast 'Literally!,' and previous roles like 'The Outsiders' and 'Wayne's World.'
In Netflix’s Dog Gone, actor, producer, and podcast host Rob Lowe plays John Marshall, a father who finds himself on an “epic quest” when his family dog turns up missing. Inspired by a true story, Dog Gone tells the heartwarming and miraculous tale of a father and his son who begin a journey across the Appalachian trail in search of Gonker, the family dog.
ROB LOWE: Very good question. Very good. Well, the ones who are making me work the hardest are the ones who are still not on the podcast. I've been chasing Bruce Springsteen, but you know what? I'm going to give it up to Howard Stern. He got Bruce. They're either really, really, really difficult, or they're really, really, really... Robert Downey Jr's proving very difficult, and he's an old friend.
LOWE: Depends on how old they are. If they're super young, and I'm super blessed to have fans of all ages, so teenagers should watch The Outsiders. But if you're going to watch The Outsiders, make sure it's The Outsiders: The Complete Novel, not The Outsiders. College-age folks should watch Parks and Recreation. If it's date night, you should watch About Last Night movie. If you're in for a thriller, watch Bad Influence, and got to watch The West Wing.
LOWE: You absolutely never know. You never know. You know when you have something good, but somehow you can fumble the bag as the kids like to say. We knew making West Wing we were making something special. When we were making Tommy Boy, we had no idea that it would become what it's become. But really, I love a good dog movie. I love a tear-jerker. I love a movie that's going to make you cry, just as a film-goer. The father/son dynamic gets me every time, whether it's on the super serious Ordinary People, or Great Santini, or something like this, [there’s] something about families that I really respond to. This had all three of them.
LOWE: Yeah. Listen, I love that there's not that kind of pressure on a movie, on any movie. I love being on Netflix for that reason. Everybody's going to see it. Everybody watches Netflix. Everybody's going to see it and you know that, and that's great. I'm super excited. It's a perfect home for this.LOWE: It has changed through my life. I started as a cat person. I had two cats, and then my first son was Class 5 allergies to cats. So, that was the end of cats.
LOWE: Oh yeah. I grew up watching Saturday Night Live. Everything I knew about comedy I learned from SNL. I got to host it three times, and it was my relationship with Lorne Michaels through hosting that got me in Wayne's World, because Mike [Myers] and Dana [Carvey] had never done a movie. Mike and Dana didn't even know that there were marks on the floor that you stood, so the camera could record you because they don't have those on SNL. They were really green.
