Good news: After what seemed like a lifetime, the release of Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues is nearly upon is. The film is set to hit theaters on Dec. 18, 2013, which means we've got exactly one more week of waiting to do before Ron Burgundy is officially back. That's fine, though, because unlike other films, the promotional materials for Anchorman 2 have actually been quite entertaining—what other film can you name that sent its main character to go anchor a real newscast on a real TV station just to promote a movie? What about another film that sent its main character to go sell Dodge Durangos? That's right. Anchorman 2 wins.
The latest bit of excellent promotion? This interview in Time with star David Koechner, who portrays Champ in the film. Koechner revealed to the publication five hilarious on-set stories about what went down on the set on Anchorman 2, including the fun little fact that the film was almost split into two parts—and that one time that Kanye West did a private performance on set for just the film's editor, Brent White. (As you may remember, West filmed a cameo for the film in Atlanta earlier this year, pre-Yeezus, so he was on set for a brief time during filming.)
