Luke Wilson breaks down his new Netflix golf comedy The Hawk, plus Bottle Rocket, Legally Blonde, Old School, and The Royal Tenenbaums.

Luke Wilson joins Scene Stealers to talk about his new Netflix series The Hawk, co-starring Will Ferrell, Jimmy Tatro, Molly Shannon, and David Hornsby. Luke breaks down how he got the role, the rise of golf's popularity, why comedies used to have more room to breathe than they do today, and what it was like reuniting with Will Ferrell nearly two decades after Old School. He also looks back at Bottle Rocket and how it flopped at the box office, nearly ended his and Owen Wilson's acting careers, and later became a cult classic praised by Martin Scorsese + the story of how the Legally Blonde writers fought to cast him as Emmett Richmond, working with Gene Hackman on The Royal Tenenbaums, and reacting to Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood.

John Slattery joins Scene Stealers to break down the scenes that defined his career.

He tells the story behind Spotlight's shocking priest-count scene (which was actually a reshoot added after the original script), recounts what it was like doing a two-hander with Philip Seymour Hoffman in Charlie Wilson's War under director Mike Nichols, remembers Alec Baldwin refusing to break character during a chaotic 30 Rock cameo, and revisits Roger Sterling's iconic drinking monologue from Mad Men.

Plus, John Slattery talks about his new comedy Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass, co-starring Jon Hamm and Zoey Deutch, directed by David Wain.

Samara Weaving joins Scene Stealers to break down some of her most memorable performances: from Ready or Not to Babylon to Guns Akimbo to her new film Carolina Caroline. Carolina Caroline is in theaters now!

Samara talks about how she mapped Grace's emotional arc in Ready or Not to make sure fear played differently in every scene. She reveals how the accent and wardrobe were the keys to unlocking her character in Carolina Caroline, and shares what it was like filming Babylon's massive desert sequence while suffering the worst migraine of her life, throwing up in an ambulance while Brad Pitt wandered around a thousand-person circus set. She also gets into why she memorized every single word of Martin McDonagh's Three Billboards script and how her drama coach Lee Colton Smith completely changed her approach to acting, and the reason she signed on to Guns Akimbo to hang out with Daniel Radcliffe, who she'd been hiding a Harry Potter tattoo from the entire shoot.

SCENES :
03:41 - Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
07:45 - Guns Akimbo
