October 13, 2016

The Mascots cast discusses the new Netflix comedy, armadillos and the Christopher Guest Cinematic Universe

Mascots is now streaming on Netflix and that’s very good new for anyone who appreciates very funny people doing very amusing things. Christopher Guest continues in the fine tradition of his Waiting For Guffman, Best in Show, A Mighty Wind and For Your Consideration with a new faux documentary that examines a gathering of professional mascots in competition to win the prestigious “Fluffy” award at an annual event. ComingSoon.net had the chance to sit down with a few members of the Mascots cast and, in the player below, you can take a look at our conversations with Jane Lynch, Parker Posey, Fred Willard and Susan Yeagley. The topics of conversations range from armadillos to a certain returning Waiting For Guffman character that seems to suggest a Christopher Guest shared universe!

The Mascots cast also includes Ed Begley, Jr., Christopher Moynihan, Don Lake, Brad Williams, Zach Woods, Chris O’Dowd, Sarah Baker, Tom Bennett, Kerry Godliman, Bob Balaban, Jennifer Coolidge, Michael Hitchcock, Maria Blasucci, John Michael Higgins, and Jim Piddock.

The Netflix original film was written by Christopher Guest & Jim Piddock and produced by Karen Murphy.
