William H Macy on Kate Upton and Alexandra Daddario – Watch the star of Shameless on his dog-look-a-like, Fargo, Boogie Nights, and directing The Layover

William H Macy spoke to Bay Area HQ recently about his second feature that he directed. It’s called The Layover, and this time it’s a fun, sexy comedy with two of the most gorgeous actresses to come along in recent years: Kate Upton and Alexandra Daddario. We asked Bill about his motorcycle ride to the Bay Area, Boogie Nights, Fargo, Air Force One, his resemblance to a dog being talked about online, and which of the two actresses would make a better “Roller Girl.” Watch the video above and below for lots more, featuring two segments with one of the greatest actors of our time.
