Movie Audition of the Day: On the heels of two unsuccessful attempts at securing a part in the upcoming live-action Yogi Bear adaptation, actor T. J. Miller (Hud from Cloverfield) decided to go for broke with the single greatest audition tape ever produced: Miller, with help from the fine folks at the Hollywood Animal Ranch, recorded himself reading lines with a real-live bear.
Bonus: It totally worked! Warner Bros. CEO Barry M. Meyer saw the video and offered Miller the role of Ranger Jones.
Moral of the Story: When all else fails — film yourself feeding marshmallows to a bear with your mouth.
