In a recent interview with GQ, actor and comedian Jerry Seinfeld shared his thoughts on the state of the movie industry. He expressed surprise at how serious and out of touch studio executives seem to be with the changes that have taken place in the business. According to Seinfeld, there is a sense of confusion and disorientation among those in the industry about what comes next, with the traditional movie-watching experience no longer holding the same level of cultural significance.
Despite this shift in the movie industry, Seinfeld has decided to make a film called “Unfrosted.” The idea for the movie came from a writer on his hit show “Seinfeld,” who suggested it as an alternative to being cast in “Mad Men.” Although creating a movie in a changing landscape presented its own set of challenges, Seinfeld found comfort in his experience as a stand-up comedian. He compared it to a skilled cabinetmaker who is always in demand.
Seinfeld believes that stand-up comedy will remain a consistent form of entertainment even as other areas of the entertainment industry evolve. He emphasized that audiences are drawn to stand-up because of its genuine nature. “Unfrosted” is set to premiere on Netflix on May 3rd.
