I was an extra in that indie film he was in, he seems like a cool guy!


So in Spring 2011 they were filming Safety Not Guaranteed in Seattle and I went to be an extra in it. I had never heard of Jake Johnson because this was before New Girl came out. I was very surprised when I saw he was going to be in it! Anyway, I don't really have that cool of a story, I was more disappointed that I didn't get to be in the scenes with Aubrey Plaza lol, but I was just sitting up in the bleachers with the other extras and Jake was in a bunch of those scenes and he seemed like a really nice guy, he was really bubbly and made jokes with everyone when the camera wasn't rolling.
I just wanted to share because I really love him in New Girl and he just seems like an awesome, friendly dude in real life!

Awesome, I've only seen him in New Girl and Let's Be Cops, but he seems like a really cool guy. It's always nice to know that the actors are nice in real life. Apparently, Zoey Deschanel is a bitch in real life.
