Friday the 13th Interview Born and raised in San Antonio, Jared Padalecki is a fabulous person and we really appreciated his time. Here’s what he had to tell us about his exciting new movie: Q: You and Jensen Ackles have dualing slasher movies now. How weird is it that your 'Supernatural' co-star had a horror movie come out right before yours? Jared: I know, yeah. When we found out that we were coming out on February 13th and his movie is obviously called My Bloody Valentine, we were like “Oh, man, I hope they don't go up against each other” because we're buddies and it's not like it’s really going to affect anything but it’s like, you know, I don't really want the stigma but, luckily, his already came out and did tremendously. Now, it's my turn. Q: Both of them are good. Did he say to you, “But mine is in 3-D”? Jared: Well, we actually went and saw it opening night. Bizarrely, for one of the rare times of the year, we each had a day off and his girlfriend was in town and Kerr Smith, who is in the movie also, was in town. So, we actually snuck into the theater, put the little glasses on and we got to thinking later, “You know what? I'll bet you the people behind us were like 'These glasses are amazing! It's like they're right here!’” [laughs] So, it was a lot of fun. It's a really fun movie. If you haven't seen it, it's a lot of fun to go see. I’m giving him a shameless plug. Q: Has he seen yours yet? Jared: I haven't even seen mine because I've been working. Every time they have a screening, it's like “Oh, I have this.” Every time they're like “Hey, you comin' to the party tonight?”, it's like “Well, it's Thursday. I'll probably be working till 3 A.M. in Vancouver.” Q: How hard is it when Derek is such a nice guy to look at him in the mask and really be scared? After meeting him, I wasn't scared of him at all. Jared: Derek's an awful man. No, Derek is incredible. I think, if it had been maskless, like if he just played like 'Here's a big dude and he's gonna kill you' without the stigma of Jason....that's the second time I've used that word (stigma) in probably ten years. I've used it twice in the last five minutes. If he hadn't had the mask and the physicality, then I would have been like, “Oh, Derek, you're not gonna hurt me. You could kill me but you're too nice.” I'd probably kick him in the shin and he'd be like “Man, you know, leave me alone!” But, he's tremendous from what I've seen. I sort of get to cheat and I have lines and I can use my facial expressions and stuff like that and he just expresses so much with his movement and he’s so capable that it was really easy to get there and, plus, they call “action” and you're looking at Jason and you're like “Ha, ha! I grew up watching you. Let’s fight.” So that's really cool. But, it was really comforting to work with him because we had a couple of fight scenes, as you know, like the one in the barn. I had mud in my eyes and I couldn't wipe my eyes so most of the takes, like the second take, I had sand and stuff and I couldn't really see anything so I'd slip and he'd pause, holding me and pull me back up and I'm 220 pounds and he's like “I gotcha,” back on my feet, “Thank you.” He's really a cool guy but I can't wait to see his performance.
