Jason Schwartzman & Roman Coppola Video Interview On ‘Charles Swan,’ Charlie Sheen

A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III is the story of one womanizer’s struggle to cope with being dumped by his girlfriend and rebuild his life. Starring Charlie Sheen, 47, in the lead role, the film also has a fine supporting cast with Bill Murray, 62, and Jason Schwartzman, 32. Working with Murray on the film was a delight for director Raman Coppola. “When he walked on set with the costume, the hat and the gun, I got those kind of goosebumps like, ‘Wow, this is really a dream come true,'” Coppola told Uinterview in an exclusive video interview. “It was such a blast.”

A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III premiered at the Rome Film Festival in 2012 and will have a theatrical release in the United States on Feb. 8. The last name Coppola is no stranger to the back of the director’s chair. Roman’s father is famed director Francis Ford Coppola, and Roman’s sister, Sofia Coppola, has made a name for herself directing such critically acclaimed fare as The Virgin Suicides, Lost in Translation and Marie Antoinette.

Roman first directed in 2001 with CQ, which featured his cousin Schwartzman. In recent years, Coppola has been more of a writer, co-writing with Wes Anderson such films as Moonrise Kingdom and The Darjeeling Limited, both of which starred Schwartzman and Murray.

Born in Los Angeles, Calif., Schwartzman is coming off a three-year run as writer/private detective Jonathan Ames on HBO’s Bored to Death. This is his fourth movie working with Murray, going back to his big break in 1998’s Rushmore. Even after all these years, Schwartzman can still be surprised by Murray’s abilities. “He brings just a total wealth of phrases and extra unexpected little things that you can’t really predict,” Schwartzman told Uinterview.
