Complex caught up with Walker to discuss working for Mickey, working under Clint Eastwood, and working with Jessica Alba's ass.

Sounds wholesome.

Paul Walker: Well, you can't go wrong with dogs. Dogs or cars. It's like Will Smith said when he made Independence Day: "You do a movie with aliens, shit, you can't lose." I'm doing the same thing, but with dogs and cars. You know what would be a good movie? Cars. Guns. Chicks. Someone needs to make that.

Are you a gun guy?

Paul Walker: Oh man. I love to shoot. I really love guns and all that stuff. I guess I'm not real Hollywood in that sense. I love to bowhunt and to shoot the shit out of stuff.

Is that why the press seems to stay clear of you?

Paul Walker: No. That's because I don't live in L.A. All these people who complain and bitch about it...MOVE! Get the fuck out. Hey, you don't like the press, why the hell are you shopping on Rodeo Drive? Come on, it's easy to disappear if you want to.

You're kind of a manly man, huh?

Paul Walker: I guess. My dad was like that.

Okay, but even though you're a tough guy, when they cut off your flowing locks after Fast And The Furious, did you cry just a tiny bit?

Paul Walker: What? No. Dude, I run my hair short when I'm not working. I cut it myself. I just use a three.

Wow. So how did this gun-totin', flowbee-using guy end up covered in fake snow introducing a dog named Max to the viewers of E! Behind The Scenes

Paul Walker: I don't know. I'm doing it for nieces and nephews. And my daughter Meadow Rain...

Wait, Meadow Rain? That's her name?

Paul Walker: Yeah, when she was born, her mother and I knew we weren't going to get married. So in the recovery room, her mom said, "Do you want the baby to have your last name?" And I said, "Of course." So she said, "Well, then it's either Meadow Rain or Winter Sunrise." I went with Meadow Rain.

It's quite...natural.

Paul Walker: Yeah. Her mom's really bohemian. She lives in Hawaii and makes daisy chains or...whatever the freak they're called.

Leis?

Paul Walker: Yeah. So, Eight Below is a movie I'm making because my daughter's going to think Daddy's really cool. Look, I'm not complaining. It's part of the job. But I don't know any actor who can honestly say he likes doing publicity. I like making movies. And publicity is part of making movies. So when you're sitting there covered in fake snow next to a dog you have to put it all in perspective. The second you can't do that anymore, regardless of whether you're a doctor, an actor, or a rock star, that's when you're screwed.

Who was harder to work with, the dogs in Eight Below or the sharks in Into The Blue?

Paul Walker: Sharks are no problem. They're like Labrador retrievers. They bump up against you and you have to give them a whack. You get to the point where it's not even a big deal. You're like, "You know what? This guy's bumping me too many times. Let's just set this straight." Then...SLAP!

Okay, so you're in the water with sharks with Jessica Alba...

Paul Walker: And I can't take my eyes off Jessica Alba's ass. Fuck the sharks.

Oh! Actually, I was going to ask about shrinkage...

Paul Walker: I want a shot at that conch. When she swims over man, I'm just looking.... Come on dude, you know what I'm looking at. I was working with her for like three-and-a-half, four months. I couldn't take my eyes off that ass. I'm sorry.

She's attractive.

Paul Walker: She's beautiful. And she's such a pain in my ass, too.

Wait, does she do this thing where she calls you all the time and won't stop until you agree to have sex with her? Because that would be an eerie coincidence...

Paul Walker: No. She's got a great ass, but she's a pain in the ass. She just...she is. But that's what I love about her. She's so contrary. It doesn't matter what you say, she goes in the other direction. It's like, "Jessica, you don't really think that!" And she knows she doesn't but she's going to run with it. She's the kind of girl you just want to have angry sex with for the rest of your life because it's just that good.

Paul, for an all-American golden boy, you're a bit of a rascal.

Paul Walker: Well, the character I play in Running Scared is much closer to the real me than the one you see in Eight Below or The Fast And The Furious or any of that poster-boy shit. Anyone who knows me knows that's the guy I've been trying to suppress my whole life. Home // CELEBRITIES // COVER STORY // Paul Walker
