War Dogs was an incredible movie. How many times have you watched it? Every girl I ever date wants to watch it with me, so a few times. Interesting thing though, I was involved in the process of making the film, so the screenwriter came down to Miami when they first started the project and interviewed me for about a week and used those interviews as the basis for the first version of the screenplay. But then director got another screenwriter to kind of rewrite the screenplay a whole bunch of times. It got rewritten like 10 different times, and along the way they would send me different drafts of the script. So it was cool to see that kind of transformation and to see what kind of parts they cut out, what kind of things they added in. But this one line in the film that they cut from the final version— Miles is like, what, we gotta go to like Jordan? Jonah goes, David, we're international arms dealers. International. Whenever my brothers and I go traveling on a trip, we're like, we're international, bro. International.
