JAKE JOHNSON DOES HOLLYWOOD HIS OWN WAY

DEAR MEDIA, AMANDA HIRSCH
About this episode

If I was a Hollywood actor, I would be Jake Johnson. The laid-back Chicago man has managed to garner major success with his work as Nick Miller on New Girl, Peter B. Parker in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and now his directorial debut & starring role in Self-Reliance on Hulu - all without compromising who he is. Jake is just as funny as Nick Miller and I lol'd through this interview for an hour. spoiler alert: you will too!!!
