They did many takes from different angles on the day of the shoot. When she called to tell me he got the part she mentioned that the Director loved that he gone off script, and that’s probably why he got the part, because he did it on his own. When he was done, Carolyn Pickman, the casting director came out and said that he was really funny and that he had ad-libbed. There were probably 20-25 kids for the part. A month or so later I got a message from them asking if Trip could come back in to audition for this part in Daddy’s Home 2. Trip went to CP Casting in Boston to audition for a role in The Burning Woman. PARAMOUNT Mel Gibson, Mark Wahlberg, Will Ferrell and John Lithgow in Daddy's Home 2ĭaye, tell us a little bit about Trip’s work on Daddy’s Home 2 from your perspective. No, but every time I would say a joke, my teacher would say “Trip, stop bullying everyone.” I just don’t really care what I get, as long as I get a part. Is that something that the kind of role you want to play? Are you a bully in real life? You played an evil stepbrother in Twinderella – another bully. Meeting new people is really cool, getting to know other people is really awesome. I love to sing, and being out there trying to be as funny as possible. Tell us about the kind of productions that you are interested in doing next. He was just on his iPod listening to music. I was like, “Does everyone here love basketball?” And I was shocked that Mark Wahlberg wasn’t really watching it, because he did some work with one of the players on the Boston team. Will Ferrell was watching it, I was watching it, everyone was watching it. Well there was a basketball playoff going on. When that happened, all my friends were just patting me on the back, telling me “Good job” and “You’re cool”. It was when Mark Wahlberg said “Hey, mind your own business” and Mel Gibson said “Yeah, put a sock in it.” Originally I was supposed to say “Hey, it’s not my fault your kid sucks.” Unfortunately that line did get cut, but I was happy that one made the cut. I added another line, they told me to do that, but it got cut. Dylan is bowling and he’s putting it in the gutter, so I said “Hey everyone! Check it out! This kid’s about to bowl a perfect zero!” That’s my line. He’s kind of picking on Dylan (Mark Wahlberg and Linda Cardellini’s on-screen son). Tell us a little bit about the scene and who you play in Daddy’s Home 2, for those who haven’t seen it yet. Then they asked me to go on and an hour after I was on set, I did my scene.Įxcellent. I spent half the day just waiting, playing on my phone, doing homework, that sort of thing. But I didn’t start filming my scene right away. In film you don’t usually get rehearsal time, did you have any prep time with the director or the cast before? Were you a big fan of Will Ferrell before doing the film? My part of the shoot was in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was just the best thing in my life, pretty much. It was an amazing experience, everyone there was really nice. I didn’t get the part but they still had my resume/headshot, so they said, “Maybe this kid will be good for Daddy’s Home 2?” Then they asked me to audition, and a little while later I found out that I got the part.Ī month later, I was there. I was there once for another movie called The Burning Woman. I auditioned for it at this place in Boston called CP Casting. Tell us a little bit about how Daddy’s Home 2 came about. I have done multiple plays since then at MLT. It was really short but we did a play and it was really fun. I did a camp one summer – it was a week (Marblehead Little Theater). I’m from Boston and I started acting when I was five. Trip, congratulations on Daddy’s Home 2, Trip! Tell us Whereabouts in America are you from and when you started acting originally?
