I had a few people write in to let me know that Rainn Wilson (Dwight) had a short interview with People magazine. It was so short and talked mostly of his new movie, that I wasn’t going to post it right away. But, when Rob (LITO reader) sent in this great shot of Dwight on the beet farm, I thought that this interview would be a perfect reason to write a post about Dwight and give me a chance to post this picture.
You can read the interview. here.
The People magazine article says that Rainn is 40 years old. That didn’t seem right to me so I looked it up on IMDB.com. It states his DOB as January 20, 1968, making him 38. I know that IMDB isn’t always 100% accurate but I think People magazine got it wrong this time.
Has anyone else seen anything referring to his age?
Rainn and Owen Wilson did an interview with XM Radio’s Opie and Anthony and Rainn was joking that he wanted Owen to do a guest spot on the show to play Mose – his retarded beet farming cousin. Of course they were joking, but it’d be interesting to see how they’d incorporate a real-life beet-farmin’ Mose into an episode…
Owen Wilson would probably do it.
