Russell Brand is set to play the jester character of Trinculo in Julie Taymor‘s adaptation of Shakespeare’s The Tempest — and he certainly seems to fit the part. In this video, Julie asks Russell a simple question about the origin of his name and the actor goes on a five-minute wholly improvised spiel. Russell makes a point to say that he isn’t “rash-like,” in case you were wondering.
And what did costar Alfred Molina have to say at the end of Russell’s rant?
“You’re the only person I know who can do that… And that’s good.”
