Orange Cassidy Learns Of Paul Rudd Basing Movie Character Off Him, ‘The Guy From Clueless?’

In February, William Mullally did true journalism by informing Paul Rudd of Orange Cassidy. 

Some believe that Orange Cassidy is based off Paul Rudd’s character Andy in “Wet Hot American Summer.” Andy was too cool for school and his nonchalant attitude was endearing to viewers. “Jane” by Jefferson Starship was the main theme of “Wet Hot American Summer” and is the theme of Orange Cassidy.

However, Rudd’s character was actually based off Orange Cassidy, and Mullally informed Orange Cassidy of such in an interview for Esquire Middle East. 

Are you aware that there’s an actor who took your entire character for movie called Wet Hot American Summer?

No, I’m not.

His name is Paul Rudd. I think you need to look into this.

The guy from Clueless?

The guy from Clueless. Took the entire thing.

I mean, why?

Can you really blame him? It’s a good look.

Yeah, I guess so. Does it work for movies?

I think certain people can pull it off. Are you a movie fan at all?

Yeah, I’m a huge movie fan when it comes to Fast and Furious movies.

Orange Cassidy then dove into his love of the Fast and Furious franchise, specifically Fast Five. Orange Cassidy previously revealed that all his knowledge came from Fast and Furious.
