Cube

teachers. But a few were
classroom teachers who
just didn’t take no mess.
I just went over the top
with it, because we were
having fun with the com-
edy.
KW: Growing up, was
there a spot where kids
would settle their diff er-
ences aft er school?
IC: There wasn’t just
one spot. But it had to be
out of sight of teachers,
like behind a building,
which is where most
fi ghts took place. There
was never one particular
area where we always got
down.
KW: Who came up with
the idea of fl ipping the
script by having the aft er
school fi ght be between
two teachers instead of
two students?
IC: Well, the script was
brought to us by [direc-
tor] Rich Keen and New
Line Cinema. I don’t
know exactly who came
up with the concept, but
that’s what made it fun-
ny to me. It’s unusual to
have two teachers going
at it, instead of two stu-
dents. That unique prem-
ise was one of the things
that hooked me.
KW: How did you and
Charlie Day go about
generating
the
bul-
ly-nerd anti-chemistry
that the story called for?
How did you know how
mean to be without going
over the line and ending
up looking cruel?
IC: It’s a dance. We had
a mutual respect for each
other’s skills. And when
you have that mutual
respect, you’re more giv-
ing actors. You’ll make
sure he shines where he’s
supposed to shine, and
vice versa. The key is to
not get in the way of the
character, and to be hon-
est and true with it. Still,
real personalities creep
in every now and then.
It’s all about knowing the
script, and understand-
ing its ebbs and fl ows. So,
we worked well togeth-
er. I think we’re going to
end up doing a few more
movies together.
KW: Well, you already
set up the sequel to “Fist
Fight” in the closing
scene.
IC: Yeah, without a
doubt! Without a doubt!
KW: You guys had a
terrifi c supporting cast:
Dennis Haysbert, Dean
Norris, Christina Hen-
dricks, Kym Whitley,
Jillian Bell and Tracy
Morgan. Was this Tra-
cy’s fi rst fi lm since the ac-
cident? I don’t remember
seeing him in anything.
IC: Yeah, this was his
fi rst movie back. It was
great to have him. I’d
worked with him before
in a movie called “First
Sunday.” It was cool to
see him again, to be able
to hang, and to just have
him here. That accident
it was in was horrible.
It was great to have him
around again.
KW: I’ve interviewed
him several times, and
he’s one of those rare
people who’s just natu-
rally funny.
IC: Yeah, he doesn’t
have to tell a joke. All he
has to do is talk. He’s just
a funny dude. God bless-
es some people with a
gift .
KW: “Fist Fight” was
Richard Keen’s fi rst full-
length feature fi lm. It’s
pretty impressive con-
sidering it was a directo-
rial debut.
IC: Without a doubt! He
did a great job. And he’s
the one who really sold
me on the movie. He cut
together a trailer show-
ing what the movie would
look like by cutting Char-
lie and me into pieces of
other movies. That sold
me. I said, “Dude, if you
make this movie that
you’re showing me, then
I’m in.” and he defi nitely
went above and beyond
expectations.
KW: He certainly was
able to keep it exciting by
setting the fi lm in a high
school on Senior Prank
Day. That way, all sorts of
surprises could pop up
during lulls in the action.
IC: Yeah, it’s cool, be-
cause people think it’s
just a fi ght, but there are
a thousand other things
going on. [Chuckles] It’s
nice to have a lot of sur-
prises in a movie like
this.
KW: What message
do you think people will
take away from “Fist
Fight”?
IC: I think it’s really
talking about the school
system, and the under-
lying problems that the
society’s facing when it
comes to educating kids.
Do we just coddle them
or do we really try to
hold them accountable
for what they learn?
KW: What do you think
of the Academy Awards
nominating a half-dozen
black actors aft er none
the previous two years?
IC: I don’t really know
what
they’re
going
through, but I’m pretty
sure the nominees de-
served it, and that’s all
that matters, that our
work is recognized. We
don’t want any quotas.
Just recognize good
work.
KW: Last year, it was
unfortunate that your
biopic, “Straight Outta
Compton,” was only nom-
inated for Best Original
Screenplay. And your
scriptwriters were all
White.
IC: It ain’t no thing. At
least I don’t make mov-
ies for no Oscars. I make
movies for the people.
KW: Finally, what’s in
your wallet?
IC: What’s in my wal-
let? [LOL] Not too much.
An I.D. card. That’s it.
[Laughs some more]
