Kevin Smith talks about his friendship with Chris Jericho

Actor Kevin Smith talks about his friendship with Chris Jericho:

“Chris was good enough to be in Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. I also worked with Jericho on Kilroy Was Here which isn’t complete yet. I’ve been on his podcast and he was on my podcast and I fell in love with him. This sweet Canadian kid is such a nice guy. We came up similarly but his dad was super famous. I dug him and saw that he was a good dude so I wanted to put him in something. So when I put him in something, I kept casting him as a bad guy. In Kilroy he plays a real piece of shit and in Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, he was the Klan leader. I hadn’t seen Chris wrestle and didn’t know his personality. So, I thought I was clever by casting this sweet kid as a bad guy as no one would ever think to do that.”
