Which is why they were cast, I guess, because this person is brilliant. I mean, a brilliant actor anyway, but knows comedy very, very well, and is very adept at handling stuff that could be light, and turning on a dime, and then making it serious.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"&quot;auto&quot;\">\u201cI didn\u2019t do much with my previous comrades from the first film.
