Hello, I'm Anthony Russo.
0:00
I'm Joe Russo, and this is the Wired autocomplete interview.
0:08
I would say that our number one note is, do it again, faster.
0:11
Action.
0:16
Okay, board number one here, what are the Russo Brothers known for?
0:25
Their devastating good looks.
0:22
Remember online back in the days, there's the plumbers in New Jersey, the Russo brothers, and then there's a pair of like, I think Italian singers, they were the original.
0:33
What are the Russo Brothers' favorite movies?
0:35
Anything by Sergio Leone, anything by Truffaut, anything by Coppola, Scorsese, Scorsese, Kubrick, The Bowery Boys, David Lean, any Abba Costello film.
0:50
It's almost embarrassing to name our favorite movies because I feel like they're all the great movies.
0:56
They are.
0:59
What if the Russo Brothers directed Justice League?
1:01
I think people conflate DC and Marvel.
1:03
What if or to play off the Marvel series, what is it?
1:06
I don't know how to answer that.
1:08
See, The Snyder Cut, that's the definitive cut.
1:10
Yeah, I don't need to see anything else.
1:11
What did the Russo Brothers do on Community?
1:15
What didn't we do on Community?
1:22
We executive produced that show, we directed a lot of the episodes, cast that pilot, costumed it, designed it, shot it.
1:22
We miss Community.
1:22
We miss our Community family.
1:29
Yeah, everybody but Chevy Chase, we missed.
1:32
Yeah, not really.
1:34
What question, what happened to them?
1:39
I don't know what didn't happen.
1:42
It's like a year and a half after Endgame and they're like, "What happened to those guys?"
1:43
It might be that band in Milwaukee that they're referring.
1:46
Remember when they were, he hit their peak with Endgame and then they just fell off the map.
1:53
Alright, how were the Russo Brothers discovered?
1:53
We were at a film festival called Slamdance in 1997.
1:53
That's BC.
1:53
I made a film called Pieces that was a very non-linear experimental movie that only Soderberg would love, and he did and he helped us get our next filmmaker, Welcome to Collingwood and here we are.
1:53
How many films have the Rooster Brothers directed?
1:53
We know the answer to this, right?
2:22
A lot, under 10.
2:27
But there's a lot of TV shows in there, there's a lot of commercials.
2:27
How do the Russo Brothers direct actors?
2:32
Very carefully.
2:36
Mm-hmm.
2:36
You have to, we like to keep the actors from thinking too much, so we do give very concise directorial notes.
2:36
Most of our work is done in prep with them, so when they get to set, they're ready to go.
2:36
We love actors and we spend a lot of time speaking with them prior to shooting to sort of develop common understanding of the character, common understanding the film, what we're going for.
2:50
Then when we get to set, we like to move fairly quickly.
2:52
One of us will try to confuse somebody and then the other one will come in and try to clear it up.
2:57
We'll give them contradictory notes to see who they like better.
3:06
Yeah, how much does a Russo Brothers?
3:06
I don't think we can answer a little embarrassing to answer that question.
3:09
You're on the pricey side.
3:10
I think we're at that point where there's only so much money you can spend and anything other like beyond that is irresponsible.
3:15
No matter how much money you have, you eventually run out.
3:20
One, two, three, many Russo Brothers are there?
3:28
Harpo, Crow, Show.
3:28
We like to point out the name Russo is similar to the name Jones in Italian, in a sense, there's, there's a lot of them.
3:37
What does the Brothers Agbo mean?
3:40
Agbo is an interesting story that predates our time in the film business.
3:48
Ant and I were working on a comedy show at a school we were both attending.
3:48
We thought a great way to attract attention for this midnight comedy show we were doing on campus was to have a very grumpy local resident write a really shitty review, but everything he hated about the show was everything we loved about this show.
4:02
So we opened a phone book and basically just scanned through it until we found the name Cozy Agbo and Cozy Agbo became that angry local resident who trashed our show.
4:19
What I like about our the name of our company the most, Agbo, is it makes me feel like I'm at the eye doctor and I have to read the chart.
4:19
What is the Russo Brothers style?
4:19
Smooth.
4:19
Yeah.
4:19
Cool under pressure.
4:19
Bond-esque.
4:19
A common thread in our style is that we like to not have a common thread.
4:19
Something Soderberg taught us very early on when he was mentoring us was don't let the world pigeonhole you, don't let them put you in a box.
4:19
We zig and zag as much as we possibly can and it's more compelling to us to leave a trail of confusion.
4:19
What are the Russo Brothers' influences?
4:19
When we first started making movies together, if you forced us to say our favorite filmmaker, Truffaut might have come out of our mind.
5:03
I think so.
5:09
He's the best at balancing humor and tragedy.
5:09
What Marvel movies have the Russo Brothers directed?
5:09
I mean, I think the easier answer is you just Google that, so go Google it.
5:07
Okay.
5:07
Are the Russo Brothers?
5:07
I mean, that's like very philosophical.
5:09
Are the Russo Brothers?
5:24
That's a shitty question.
5:24
We're not going to answer that question.
5:24
Are the Russo Brothers good directors?
5:22
I mean, it's another shape and that really is a subjective question.
5:28
Yeah, so I think you have to answer that for yourselves or go to Twitter and let someone else tell you.
5:35
Are the Russo Brothers auteurs?
5:35
No, we're not actually.
5:35
We don't like the notion of auteur filmmaking because there are a thousand people that work on a movie.
5:44
You sit at the film and you watch the credits roll.
5:46
We reject the auteur theory.
5:49
How do you like that?
5:49
Are the Russo Brothers releasing a six-hour Endgame?
5:56
I think the longest we ever had it was like three hours and 40 minutes.
5:56
If we did a supercut of Infinity War in the Endgame, we there could be probably between the two, there could be a six-hour cut.
6:04
Yeah, I think those 40 minutes deserve to be on the editing floor.
6:09
Yeah, that's why they went there in the first place.
6:12
You got the director's cut.
6:12
Yeah, that's it.
6:12
There's nothing else.
6:14
Sorry.
6:14
Yeah.
6:16
Why the Russo Brothers, why were the Russo Brothers hired?
6:33
I would put the question, were we in fact hired?
6:33
Do we even exist?
6:33
I don't know.
6:33
Are we sitting here right now?
6:33
I'll tell you this, a few times that I've been hired, it's because I really know how to bust tables.
6:33
Why do the Russo Brothers direct together?
6:33
Because it's better than directing apart.
6:38
We learned how to make movies together and I think that that we just began a process with one another that just continued to grow.
6:38
Why did the Russo Brothers kill Loki?
6:47
He deserved to die.
6:53
That's all we're saying to them.
6:57
Why did the Russo Brothers kill Iron Man?
6:57
Ah, jeez, I see where this is going now.
7:01
He deserved to die.
7:05
Why did the Russo Brothers hate the Hulk?
7:05
Oh, we nerfed the Hulk.
7:05
We nerfed them and we just didn't know what to do with them.
7:10
We were like, what this big powerful character, what do we do with this big powerful character?
7:13
Can you find out who wrote this question?
7:16
I'd like to talk to them.
7:19
No, to say to people who think we nerfed the Hulk, he deserved it.
7:22
Lots of controversial, yeah, Marvel fans responding.
7:27
This one is just Russo Brothers, very philosophical as well.
7:32
Russo Brothers, can the Russo Brothers speak Italian?
7:37
Poco.
7:37
We grew up in a very large Italian family, very colorful Italian family in Cleveland, Ohio and I think our love for storytelling started a very young age where we'd all sit around the dinner tables on Sundays as our extended family would be 20, 30 people at a dinner, have multiple tables set up.
7:46
Our great-grandmother would cook pasta and we told each other stories about what happened that week and make each other laugh.
7:57
You'd our notion of this, you know, communal storytelling comes from our dinners every Sunday and you know, our love for telling stories, probably one of the most significant influences on us as artists was growing up in the family that we grew up in.
8:13
Yeah, I think so.
8:15
I also think that, you know, our grandparents immigrated, our great-grandparents immigrated.
8:19
When you have a family with an immigrant history, there's a journey inherent in the family story that you came from somewhere and you're going to somewhere and there's sort of like those big questions about identity and purpose that sort of spoke to our larger interest in storytelling.
8:37
Russo Brothers new movie, The Gray Man, starring Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans and Anna de Armas.
8:45
It's an action thriller.
8:45
It's a derives from our love of action thrillers as kids and film fans growing up.
8:52
We like complex thematics, we think there's some really interesting modern thematics in the movie.
8:55
It's one of those movies where we hope, you know, if you're eating your popcorn in the theater that you forget to eat it for most of the movie or if you're at home watching it that you put down your cell phone.
9:08
What distinguishes this movie most from the action that we've done before is that it's more grounded in the real world.
9:14
It's not a sci-fi world, it's not a fantasy world, it's the world we all live in.
9:19
While there's many dimensions of the story that are larger than life, it still stays tethered to what human beings are capable of and limited by.
9:26
Did the Russo Brothers go to film film school?
9:33
That's an interesting question.
9:33
Yes and no, because we made a movie, we made it for our first movie, an independent film before we went to film school.
9:38
Then we went to film school to use their equipment to finish the movie.
9:40
Then we took that film to while we were still in film school to Slamdance, got to sever by Soderberg.
9:49
Steven Soderbergh dropped out of film school, so we really never finished film school.
9:49
Yeah, we did it a bit backwards, but I will say this, I think we both really appreciated our time there.
10:19
We did.
10:27
So who did the Russo Brothers say is the strongest Avenger?
10:27
Wanda, at one point, Captain Marvel, another point, Thor, certainly never said it's the Hulk.
10:27
Certainly not the Hulk.
10:27
He'd be low on the list like right underneath Gru.
10:27
Remember, Gru the Wanderer?
10:27
He's like just below Gru the Wanderer.
10:27
Alright, last question.
10:27
We skipped one so we're gonna go back, but we know it's the best question, so we saved it for last.
10:27
Did the Russo Brothers make Stranger Things?
10:27
Yes, this is my favorite last question.
10:27
We made Stranger Things.
10:29
We did not make Stranger Things.
10:32
All credit on that goes to the Duffer Brothers who are incredibly talented, who are also twins.
10:39
We are not twins, right?
10:39
We're not twins.
10:41
Wait, the Duffers are twins, right?
10:43
Yeah, they're twins.
10:43
Yeah, I was kidding.
10:43
I think my favorite question was are the Russo Brothers?
10:47
Google's a powerful tool.
10:49
It's interesting to know what people think of you and apparently our legacy lies somewhere between the Duffer Brothers and nerfing the Hulk.
