Two years after leaving "Saturday Night Live," Bill Hader is busier than ever on the big screen, playing his first romantic leading role in the Amy Schumer comedy "Trainwreck," which opens July 17, and voicing the emotion of Fear in Pixar's high-concept summer hit, "Inside Out." Hader, who is also at work on Steven Spielberg's upcoming fantasy "BFG" and an IFC show called "Documentary Now," chatted about discovering new comedy muscles, stoking his Pixar fandom and juggling fatherhood and acting.
What was it like for you to play a romantic lead for the first time?
Weird.
