Jack Out Of The Box
On the Paramount studio lot, in a trailer near the corner of Fifth Avenue and 38th Street on an ersatz New York set, Jack Black rubs his red-rimmed eyes with his beefy fists, trying to shake off the Tylenol PM he took last night. A White Stripes song bashes out of speakers wired to his iPod. Arrayed on the table in front of him are a bottle of Gatorade, a paperback copy of the Dalai Lamas Path to Tranquility and a magazine about trucks. Its 2 in the afternoon, the time that Black is usually just getting out of bed. Im nocturnal by nature, like a vampire, he says. Two to 6 a.m. -- those are my best hours. The actor is here to make a music video for a song from his new movie, The School of Rock, and he needs to ramp up his energy level considerably for the comedic exertions todays shoot involves: leaping down stairs three at a time with arms flapping, hurling himself Dukes of Hazzard-style over the hood of a car and erupting with all manner of crazed gesticulations and demonic grimaces. Stacked on the floor of the trailer are 200 posters for The School of Rock showing Black surrounded by a multiracial group of kids, holding a guitar and striking a lip-snarling pose. A sort of heavy-metal version of The Bad News Bears, the movie, which is set to open Oct. 3, stars Black as a slovenly would-be rock idol who bluffs his way into a job as a substitute teacher at an elite private school and recruits a class of high-achieving fifth graders to be in his band. He has just autographed each poster neatly with a black marker. I dont know who theyre for, he says, but Ive been assured every one I sign means 12 people who will see the movie.. jack ou
