Director Isaiah and Yassier Lester's outrageous comedy, The Gutter, world premiered at this year’s SXSW festival in Austin, Texas. Starring Shameik Moore (Spider-man: Into the Spider-verse), Susan Sarandon (Thelma & Louise), D’Arcy Carden (Barry), and Paul Reiser (Whiplash), The Gutter is about a frequently fired man named Walt (Moore) who finally finds a job tending bar and de-roaching shoes at his local bowling alley. When the alley is threatened by money problems, Walt teams up with a former pro-bowler and current champion drinker (Carden) to use his incredible bowling skills and in-your-face style on the pro tour. But as his dominant play threatens the records of bowling-legend Linda “The Crusher” Curson (Sarandon), Walt title opportunity might be in jeopardy.

Before the world premiere, Isaiah and Yassier Lester, Moore, Sarandon, Carden and Reiser stopped by the Collider studio to talk with our own Steven Weintraub. During the interview, the cast discussed the very funny script, working on set, their favorite scenes, shared their all-time favorite TV shows, and expressed gratitude to the cast and crew for their support during production. D'arcy Carden told us:

“You know it is rare to read a script where you're laughing out loud throughout it. I was laughing. I was saying "Oh my God." I would read passages of it, passages like it's the Bible, in a way it is. I would read parts to my husband out loud. I just loved the script so much that I felt, you know, lucky to even have it sent my way. It's insane, it's the craziest script I've ever read. I'm scared of it, but it was so, you know, it was.”
