In the interview, James asks Todd about what it was about the story that they wanted to bring to the screen and how it would move on from the previous two films. This film is much more of a heist movie and James asks more about that, how Alan (Zach Galifianakis’ character) integrates in and what he’s ultimately looking for.

James also asks about new cast-members John Goodman and Melissa McCarthy, how they fit into the story and also into the ensemble cast as a whole. Finally we get to hear from Todd about his films sitting within a group of films made famous by the city of Las Vegas and more specifically returning to the city that was a character in the first film and his choice of music used in the trilogy.

We’ll have our own interviews with Heather Graham, Ken Jeong, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, Bradley Cooper and Justin Bartha coming up tomorrow so make sure you come back for those. The Hangover 3 is released in UK cinemas today.
