Bobby Lee's Hilarious and Torturous One-Line Movie Audition Story
Bobby Lee shares a chaotic and funny behind-the-scenes story about filming his one line for the movie "The Wrong Missy." He went to Hawaii to film a single line that felt extremely nerve-wracking because of the intense focus on getting it right. Adam Sandler, who was nearby, repeatedly stopped the scene asking Bobby to deliver the line more naturally, which caused panic and anxiety for Bobby.
Despite the struggle and comedy of the experience, this small role led to significant opportunities, including a long-term friendship with an executive producer who later wrote him into multiple episodes of a TV show. Bobby reflects on how sometimes saying yes to a small or difficult opportunity can lead to unexpected great outcomes.
