I participated in red carpet interviews before Thursday's Warner Bros. preview presentation, which featured all kinds of awesome footage as you may have heard (read my write-up of the Harry Potter footage, the new Sex and the City trailer and Christopher Nolan's Inception presentation). Red carpet interviews are frantic and stressful in the best of circumstances, but when you're doing interviews while holding a Flip camera, it can get really hairy.

Still, it's a lot of fun sometimes, and you can get good stuff out of actors who aren't too freaked out by the whole thing. Coming Soon's Ed Douglas and I teamed up on the red carpet, and I'll be bringing you my interviews over the next few days. First up are Josh Duhamel and Greg Berlanti, the star and director of Life as We Know It, a romantic comedy coming out later this year. Both took the stage later to debut the trailer for Life as We Know It, and what do you know-- it actually looked pretty good. I wasn't expecting all that much for what seemed like a rote romantic comedy about two unlikely lovers paired up when they must raise a friend's child together, but many of the jokes work, and the dramatic underpinnings of the story-- they raise the kid when her parents die in a car accident-- seem to give the movie an added heft. It was a rare romantic comedy trailer that doesn't seem to give away all the best moments. I know Katherine Heigl and Duhamel both have been on an awful streak lately (The Ugly Truth and When in Rome are both best forgotten), but this seems like it could have potential.

Back on the red carpet, we talked about the film's tone, what the role represents in Duhamel's career, and both of their work with Katherine Heigl. You'll also see a little talk about Transformers 3 (for Duhamel) and Green Lantern (for BerlantI) near the end. Check out the two interviews in the one video below.
