Funny guy Paul Rudd says, "I still don't consider myself a comedian."
Wait -- the star of Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Knocked Up, The 40 Year Old Virgin, Reno 911: Miami, Role Models, I Love You Man, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, This is 40 and all the other great comedies of the last decade says he's not a comic?
Correct: He trained as a serious theatre actor.
"My background isn't comedy. I never went to Second City or any of those things," says Rudd, 43, "and although I've been able to be in comedies in the last few years, I studied classical theatre."
Maybe so, but it's comedy that has the father of two phoning from his home in New York, as he does the publicity rounds for the movie Admission.
