Pharrell creating a biopic with Legos is honestly the best mashup and a great way for him to tell his story. This is just another example of how creative and talented Pharrell is. Can't wait to see the movie!
Actors do animated movies as side hustles. Its easy money to do voiceovers, actors are focused on being in actual movies. Lego movies are cute, but they aren't winning Oscars lol
I just learned more about him this year and he actually changed some of my views on rap. I realized so many of the songs I listened to as a kid were from him and I loved his upbeat, positive vibe. Seeing how he loves LEGO like I do is genuinely heartwarming. I got new LEGO sets for my birthday recently and actually got to playing with them like a kid again and remembered the creative magic from years ago where I couldn’t wait to get building and playing.
If there’s anyone who deserves a biopic, it’s him. This format fits his aesthetic! Him and Chad through their music have given me and a lot of people a soundtrack for periods throughout our lives.
@@sibanykuicksilver6221 it’s probably the funniest joke in the movie - and he’s acting like it doesn’t happen - the interviewer clearer just watched it
Making it PG means that he's going to get a HUGE payday. Very smart move. I'm from the school that music, Hip Hop, does not need to use offensive language to get the message across. Very excited to see how this movie drops.
Same man. I write a lot of my own hip hop music and I purposely avoid curse words whenever I can. I just find it to be a very lazy form of communication
I'm going to see this opening weekend. I love what this stands for, and I love the creativity. That's what LEGO is all about. That's what Pharrell is.... pure creativity ❤
I LOVE HOW HE SAID WE MAKING THIS FOR HUMAN BEINGS🎉🎉 we thinking outside the box..and I CANT WAIT TO WACTH THIS🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 this man is smart i love his responses
Oh Damn What He Said About Not Telling The Actors What Type Of Movie It Was Going To Be Is CRAZY INNOVATIVE!!! Cause His Whole Goal Was Too Make A “LEGO Movie” Of His OWN Life Experiences Without Make It Feel “Childish” Per Se. And That’s Honestly Never Been Done Before. Tell Me When Have You EVER Seen Basically A Whole Biographical Movie In LEGO Form????
I just wanna say this to anyone who has the aspirations of becoming a public figure. You’re putting your face in front of “8B” people and with that comes the positive AND the negative. Just like “civilians” putting yourself “out there” is NOT for the faint of heart. ❤️ Be careful what you wish for…
He has and is still working on some film scores. So it doesn't seem too surprising. It's a really cool creative idea though. I loved his work in the minion movies and more.
@@abelcastro4813 I mean he's been working his music into animation for years so that's what I meant by: It's not too surprising. I understand your sentiment though. It's still a brilliant idea nonetheless. I'm glad Lego let him do it. Looking forward to watching it.
Stellar interview. Mr. Pharrell Williams attire was fantastic. The colors of his attire are perfect for fall. Yes! Mr. Pharrell Williams earrings are stunning. His style choice for earrings inspired my purchase for citron stud earrings for myself. I wear my studs daily. However,, off course they are not the studs Mr. Pharrell Williams are wearing.
I'll give you guys the honest answer to why he chose to go with Legos. It's because kids movies are some of the highest selling products and Legos combined with Pharrell gave a high opportunity for max sales potential vs doing it with some actors who may or may not be known. That's it. Just money.
Universal definitely needed to do something fast for lego so that they did not lose the rights to lego as a film property, so my theory is they took their Pharrell biopic they were making and made it lego so that they could still keep those rights. Similar to Fox way back with Fant4stic.
Who tf say drug use in movie. Bro he always been a family and all good artist. And its lego. Well respect n protective brand. Come on man. Dont be ask dumb question. Wouldnt be surprise interview lost couple of slots to other celebs. Do better bro.
idk i watched the trailer in a packed theater and it definitely made shit awkward in there. everyone was laughing or whispering that they "wanted to go see that" during all the other previews then Pharrell's came on it got pitch silent 😂 not saying it'll be a bad film but he probably should've just stuck to a typical documentary style. a lot of people will be turned off by the weird vibe of it being associated with legos for absolutely no reason other than to say he could do it.
I don’t think people interested in Pharrell and his story and extensive collaborations are kids. Although it might be a good introduction to a new generation who don’t know his influence.
@@sirflexinton I don’t really think Pharrell is as influential as he thinks enough to make an insane profit. Yes he will make a few million, but if he makes a Lego biopic, he’s targeting all audiences and will make a killing. It’s a smart move.
I waited 20 something years for a Pharrell biopic then he does this. I also miss the old Pharrell when he was cool, rapping, and wasnt so cautious about get canceled for doing something
Pharrell is different for sure, now. I think he's just trying to lock down legacy for his family at this point, which I'm not mad at, but this ain't "Rockstar" Pharrell anymore... And the whole thing with Chad and the Neptunes, it's just... Different. *Cue the Marilyn Monroe beat*
@@SeekoGT yea ever since that happy song he has shifted to a new audience and never gives his original fans anything to sink our teeth into. Its always really just children music or things to generate money by appealing to a wide audience, never to offend, never anything real. I remember when pusha t came out with the album that uses whitney Houstons bathroom she od’d in he posted the album cover and people where doing the whole cancel culture stuff trying to shame him for posting a album cover that had that bathroom as the artwork. He took it down so quick. Stand on business bro. Pusha t was getting flack for it too and he kept that sh’t. Didn’t change the cover, the fake angry people moved on like they always do and that is still pushas most coveted album to date.
Certain people always want to make Pharrell to be a wild drug addict. Aren't there enough of those? Even how he had to defend the creativity of blurred lines in the past, now this kind of questioning shows you how some people lack capacity. Could he be this successful if he was a real addict. It's really open honestband unashamed discrimination
This interview shouldn't have happened. It's obvious why. When Pharrell looks closed up and is not talking colorfully...that means he is not trusting this cat.
There's scenes where he meets lego snoop dogg and the lego sprays a perfume which fills the room up with smoke.. clearly reference to weed... ehhh I wouldn't let my kids watch it but it's ok for adults.

🎯🎯🎯🎯SAME HERE‼️
This idea was genius and definitely innovative in the game
For an individual to get their biopic in Lego is HUGE actors work hard to get into animated movies, so this is a historic movie.
Actors do animated movies as side hustles. Its easy money to do voiceovers, actors are focused on being in actual movies. Lego movies are cute, but they aren't winning Oscars lol
The interviewer really tried it with the "drug" conversation. P shut that down quick lol
Yeah, because Push would try to sneak a coke reference with Lego Bricks. 🤣
Ehhhh when you see it you’ll know what he’s talking about - Pharrell lowkey lying
@@velvetstarlings have you seen it? what happens?
🎯
I coulda swore I saw Pharrell and chad smoking a bong in the trailer lying down on the floor
Someone who truly understands the value in creating something new. God bless Pharell!
Whew --- this is the closest I've ever seen Pharrel to being upset
You should’ve seen his early interview 😂
Well you don’t know him personally 😂 so you probably won’t see him that upset cause he knows how to control his temper 😂
@@steelokey I always remind people in Get him to the Greek he clapped back and spoke to the Puffy Character from his chest. Lol
I just learned more about him this year and he actually changed some of my views on rap. I realized so many of the songs I listened to as a kid were from him and I loved his upbeat, positive vibe. Seeing how he loves LEGO like I do is genuinely heartwarming. I got new LEGO sets for my birthday recently and actually got to playing with them like a kid again and remembered the creative magic from years ago where I couldn’t wait to get building and playing.
why are the comments so negative? especially when he's such a positive and driving creative force
Because he screwed over Chad Hugo who was essential to his growth as an artist
If there’s anyone who deserves a biopic, it’s him. This format fits his aesthetic! Him and Chad through their music have given me and a lot of people a soundtrack for periods throughout our lives.
Going to watch it with my kid! Can’t wait! Love that he chose to be creative with his biopic.
Love you Pharrell!!! Keep Shining!!! 🌟
They really asked him “Is there drugs in it” Like they really didn’t have any good questions to ask lol.
@@sibanykuicksilver6221 it’s probably the funniest joke in the movie - and he’s acting like it doesn’t happen - the interviewer clearer just watched it
It's a fair question. There are multiple obvious drug references. Pharrell lied about them because LEGO has to keep its brand integrity as a kids toy
Just finished watching the film and boy did they make it work. Great film all around!
Making it PG means that he's going to get a HUGE payday. Very smart move. I'm from the school that music, Hip Hop, does not need to use offensive language to get the message across. Very excited to see how this movie drops.
Same man. I write a lot of my own hip hop music and I purposely avoid curse words whenever I can. I just find it to be a very lazy form of communication
U give words to much power... And tooooo comfortable with "defensive" words whatever that would even mean
Just be creative. It takes intellect to expand your vocabulary but sometimes depending on the subject matter of a song profanity can be necessary.
@@gnarwhal7562 real af
I'm going to see this opening weekend. I love what this stands for, and I love the creativity. That's what LEGO is all about. That's what Pharrell is.... pure creativity ❤
As a 35 year old Mexican kid this made me smile and cry a lil at work break gotta follow your dreams guys ❤
0:52 typo with his name lol
incredibly important ideas and concepts packaged in such way anyone could digest, much respect P
🎯🎯🎯🎯
Just watched it yesterday, beautifully made and delivered
LEGO means: “ PLAY WELL “ I am adding to that: “ HAVE FUN “🤩 🎊
🎯🎯
This guy is so creative
Except at Vuitton
I LOVE HOW HE SAID WE MAKING THIS FOR HUMAN BEINGS🎉🎉 we thinking outside the box..and I CANT WAIT TO WACTH THIS🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 this man is smart i love his responses
To do an animated unscripted biopic in lego is a game changer
What kind of questions are these…Pharrell navigated this properly
Ain't no kids gettin exposed to drugs in a LEGO movie. Next question patna. 😂😂😂
Two different people who know of Pharrell:
1. GRIND-DING!
2. The guy who found Maggie
3. “Because Im Happy!”
4. “Up all night to get Lucky”
5. "Maybe"
6. "Hot-n-Fun"
I knew em in NERD... as an outlaw...
7. Gotta Ass Like Loaf of Bread …!
8. Hollaback Gurl
@@ReversedOreo2248 Damn that's a good one.
I'd love to sit down and have a conversation with Pharrell collaborating with him on some music would be incredibly fun.
Why my guy never aged?
Oh Damn What He Said About Not Telling The Actors What Type Of Movie It Was Going To Be Is CRAZY INNOVATIVE!!!
Cause His Whole Goal Was Too Make A “LEGO Movie” Of His OWN Life Experiences Without Make It Feel “Childish” Per Se. And That’s Honestly Never Been Done Before.
Tell Me When Have You EVER Seen Basically A Whole Biographical Movie In LEGO Form????
The movie looks great so far.

I never would've thought that "Pharrell Williams" and "Lego Movie" would be said in the same sentence, yet here we are
He has and is still working on some film scores. So it doesn't seem too surprising. It's a really cool creative idea though. I loved his work in the minion movies and more.
Well he works on Despicable Me and he’s loved by kids because of ‘Happy’
@@TravisLee33Doing scores is not even remotely the same as your entire life story being told in Lego form so yes it is really surprising.
@@abelcastro4813 I mean he's been working his music into animation for years so that's what I meant by: It's not too surprising. I understand your sentiment though. It's still a brilliant idea nonetheless. I'm glad Lego let him do it. Looking forward to watching it.
@@TravisLee33 Same partner! Should be a fun watch indeed. 👍
The interviewer made this weird.
Yupppp
I just keep loving this great man more and more.
Every word he said makes this more and more right way to do it.
He’s finally aging , and still look young lmao
Right. Now he finally looks 30 lol
just amazing
This is gonna be DOPE
Had an incredible show many moon's ago in the village I smiled
Great film!!! My girls enjoyed the movie! He explored the trials and perseverance to keep going!
cmon variety is LEGO not legos
go count sheeps
And touch grass 😂
@@YoshiBugatti grasses
The drug question was weird
beautiful movie
Te amo

Lego and Pharell ❤
Interviewer was reaching with explicit lyrics and drug references. Pharrell made “Happy”, he can do clean and safe content.
I'll give you guys the honest answer to why he chose to go with Legos. It's because kids movies are some of the highest selling products and Legos combined with Pharrell gave a high opportunity for max sales potential vs doing it with some actors who may or may not be known. That's it. Just money.
this was clean
It’s a masterpiece ❤️🔥💯💯
Watching this while building his set 🔥

Universal has the rights to LEGO? 😮
i can't wait to see push in a lego movie
I love Pharrell. I really do, but those golden teeth are terrifying 😂
They’re actually called diamond grill.
Given the positive reputation and innovative success the Lego Movie franchise was, this will 100% be a hit that targets all demographics
They fixed the title. 👍
00:07 "When you come from, where I come from..." Said the guy with the gold "teeth" and we all were in awe of his being. What a joke.
I saw the title and thought how's he telling his life story through Pasta?
Yo he gotta brush his teeth stat
Those are gold grills... 🙄
@@djsoulchild OMG REALLY FR?!?!?🤓👆getaataheyya
@@alwinjoseph8413 idk if you knew but the prerequisite for a joke is that it be funny. Just…an FYI.
Bruh looks like a skinny Russell simmons.....
Brooo I was lik P kinda look like russel😂 when those cheeks start to sag gameover.
Awesome job Pharrel Williams. Although, now I want a movie 😏
I hope the Neptunes are brought up in the movie even with that bit of drama that went on 💯
🖖🏾😁
The interviewer come on Variety Studio
LEGO IS THE BEST TOY IN THE WORLD!
Nice
Love Pharrell. The interviewer needs to chill
Are those Lego teeth?
No?
Those are gold grills.
i'll check this out but lmk when y'all do a REAL biopic starring Steve Lacy as Pharrell.
Bro just yapping
he did not like that drug reference accusation
Man, should’ve just asked about whether there was mature subject references… not stated it as a fact that he had to defend 😂
Who tf say drug use in movie. Bro he always been a family and all good artist. And its lego. Well respect n protective brand. Come on man. Dont be ask dumb question. Wouldnt be surprise interview lost couple of slots to other celebs. Do better bro.
Spoiler alert: This movie is rated PG.
Be honest is my music fire❓ 🔥 💯
Did he have this lisp pre gold grills?
idk i watched the trailer in a packed theater and it definitely made shit awkward in there. everyone was laughing or whispering that they "wanted to go see that" during all the other previews then Pharrell's came on it got pitch silent 😂 not saying it'll be a bad film but he probably should've just stuck to a typical documentary style. a lot of people will be turned off by the weird vibe of it being associated with legos for absolutely no reason other than to say he could do it.
lego plural is lego
money
money
and more money
i love pharrell i really do but he has to do better for the people man
damn how they spell the name wrong 0:50
It’s literally just: Profit.
If you target kids through Lego you’ll get more money rather than people just going to watch a Pharrell movie…
Bruh this movie’s target audience is not kids - it’s about the music industry
I don’t think people interested in Pharrell and his story and extensive collaborations are kids. Although it might be a good introduction to a new generation who don’t know his influence.
