What’s key to the absurdly funny ‘SNL’ clips, and movie, from Please Don’t Destroy? Friendship
LA TimesMartin Herlihy, left, John Higgins and Ben Marshall have dropped their first feature film, “Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain,” on Peacock. Higgins: Ben’s name in the movie is “Ben Patterson,” Martin’s is “Martin McGrath” and mine’s “John Hoggins.” I just changed one letter. Were there moments on set where Ben would say, “I don’t think Martin would say that,” or Martin would say, “What if John were played by Brad Pitt?” or John said, “Ben, can your hair be less red?” Marshall: We all give each other notes all the time, and I think maybe to other people it could sound brash or curt, but I think we know each other so well that we’re able to be really honest: “Do a smaller one, you’re doing it way too big,” or something like that. From left, Chloe Troast as Poppy, Jordan Mendoza as Dylan, Martin Herlihy as Martin, John Higgins as John, Ben Marshall as Ben and Nichole Sakura as Amy in “Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain.” OK, time for the lightning round.
