From what we know about "Our Idiot Brother," which, truth be told, is based solely on our reaction to the trailers and the reviews, Paul Rudd's modus operandi in the family comedy is to pester his family and friends, played by the likes of Zooey Deschanel, Elizabeth Banks, Emily Mortimer and Rashida Jones (though in a lovable, if slightly moronic way).
Yes, we realize there is more to the story, and that because Rudd is so lovable, his character likely doesn't stay annoying for too long. So when MTV News caught up with the cast at the film's premiere recently, we asked them point blank: How annoying is Paul Rudd in this movie? As expected, the results are fun and funny.
"[He's] not as annoying as his Crocs," Rashida Jones told us of one particularly offensive piece of her costar's wardrobe. "No offense to people who wear Crocs, they?re super comfortable, but come on, not [to wear] out of the house."
"On a scale of one to 10, he?s an eight-and-a-half probably," Elizabeth Banks admitted. "But in real life he?s more like a four."
In contrast, Zooey Deschanel doesn't think Rudd has an annoying bone in his body.
"He?s not annoying at all!" she protested. "He?s lovely. That was a trick question."
Rudd, however, was happy to play ball, and offered a little reenactment by way of moving into our camera for an extreme close-up.
"Almost as annoying as I am right now," he said in response to the 'How annoying are you?' question, before stepping back to consider the question seriously.
"I think [his behavior] is annoying to certain characters," Rudd said. "Hopefully not to America."
