The Watch’s Richard Ayoade On Breaking Into Comedy and Playing The Nerd

Subject

Description

In The Watch, Ben Stiller plays a dorky do-gooder who forms a group of suburban crime fighters with Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill, and … Richard Ayoade. If you don’t recognize that last name, you’re not alone. Ayoade starred in the geektastic TV show The IT Crowd, a cult favorite here, but a bona-fide hit in his native England. After NBC aborted its own IT Crowd pilot, costarring Ayoade and Joel McHale, the Brit instead focused on directing music videos (Arctic Monkeys, Vampire Weekend), while helming his very-indie feature debut, Submarine.
