He said: ‘In the build-up, (Caan) was like, ‘I don’t understand you. You’re not funny.’ And I was like, ‘I know. I’m not Robin Williams.’
“And he was like, ‘People ask me, is this funny? ‘ And I was like, ‘No, it’s not funny.'”

“He said to me, ‘I have to tell you: I thought everything you were doing while we were filming was way too over the top. Now that I see it in the movie, it’s brilliant,'” Will said.
“But I love that the whole time he’s not acting. He’s really upset with me. He’s like, ‘Can this guy just shut the fuck up? Oh my God,'” Will joked.
“In that movie I literally drove him crazy, just acting like that kid. But the funniest thing was seeing him walk out of the theater, shake his head and say, ‘That’s great,'” Will admitted.
