Dr. McDreamy has escaped the small screen again to play a disillusioned New Yorker falling for a naive, animated Disney princess visiting the real world in the new fantasy romantic comedy Enchanted.
You know that smile, those eyes, those pecs? Yeah, this guy is even cuter in person. We sat down with Patrick in Beverly Hills. Nice to see him out of his "Grey's Anatomy" doc scrubs and into shirt and tie, topped with a black sweater and there's always that signature sexy shadow beard. Sigh.
We got the goods on the actor's struggles with birds flying into his face and all heck breaking lose around him while he had to play the straight man in the movie. Then there was the delight of his five-year-old daughter Tallulah that daddy is in a film with a Disney princess!
TeenHollywood: You are one of the few actors in the film who doesn't get to also be an animated character. Was that disappointing?
Patrick: Well, I'm hoping it does well enough so there's a sequel and we go back to Andalasia and we can call it Disenchanted. She gives birth to a child and doesn't like it, then she's like, 'I want to go back to the cartoon world.'
TeenHollywood: Cute. You're almost like the straight man in this. Was that a difficult role to play with all the craziness going on?
