From his star-making turn as a pastry humper in American Pie to roles in
Saving Silverman
and
Loser
, Jason Biggs has playing an affable doofus down pat. He maintains the persona with his latest flick,
My Best Friend’s Girl
. How does Jason navigate the thin line between sympathetic funnyman and unbearable schmuck?
Be Naturally Likable
“An actor needs to have likability, a quality that keeps people rooting for you. My character in
My Best Friend’s Girl
is aggressive—I mean, he’s not a rapist—but I play him as a good guy.”
Channel Cusack
“John Cusack in
Say Anything
is the best example of a hopeless romantic. You know, a nice, clean-cut fellow you can’t help but like.”
Push the Envelope
“For a character to be relatable, you need to go for it 1,000 percent. In this movie I shave my eyebrows. You can’t worry about how you look.”
Know When to Say When
“Did I
really
shave off my brows? No. I was like, ‘Fuck this. They can CGI a shaved eyebrow!’”
