From what I hear, two weeks of rehearsal seems like a lot. How common are rehearsals in the film industry and how much time are you usually given?

First of all, let me say that you're a master of your craft. I'm a drama student and I was wondering if you could say anything about your method as an actor or how you approach text to produce such real characters that aren't just comedic caricatures? Thank you so much and please keep making me laugh forever.

Thank you! And how much effect does rehearsing have on the finished product? Do you think it makes a big difference or is it mostly a luxury?
