ages" zoolander 2" and "iron man 2 the" on his resume. so would he ever write a script just for jen? >> if the right thing came around, i would definitely do it. we toss around ideas occasionally, but it's got to be something i want to write and something she wants to act in, which is harder than you might think. but, yeah, it would be fantastic if we were able to do something together. >> but would he steer clear of writing any steamy love scenes for his wife? enter a woman who is single and will stay that way forever. no, i can handle it. >> you're gonna have to hold me down. >> he's had to handle some injuries while shooting the hbo series, including a broken nose and a few stitches. he's a survivor in a world where a huge chunk of the population has mysteriously vanished. >> they torture me on this show. it's not a fun show. it's a gratifying show to do, but it's not a -- there are definitely times when you're extremely uncomfortable. and it's horrible. i think i had one more emergency room visit on this last one.
