Jon Favreau (@Jon_Favreau) is a man of many
talents. He burst onto the acting
scene with his role in Rudy. He first
established himself as a writer with the iconic cult hit
Swingers, in which he starred. Then, Favreau made his
feature film directorial debut with Made, which he also wrote and
produced. Other directing credits include Iron Man, Iron Man 2,
Cowboys & Aliens, Elf, Zathura, and Chef, which he wrote,
produced, directed, and starred in. Lots of
commas! This man does everything. Recent acting credits
include The Wolf of Wall Street and Identity Thief. Favreau
is currently directing a live-action
film with groundbreaking technology that blow your
mind — an adaptation of Disney’s Jungle Book, set to be
released on April 15, 2016. In our conversation, we dig
deep into his creative process, how he writes, the inflection
points in his career, how he prepared for Chef, and much more.
