VIDEO: James Woods Makes Unplanned Interruption to Patton Oswalt's WGA Opening
Emmy and Grammy-winning actor-writer-comedian Patton Oswalt (Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Veep) served as host of the 2017 Writers Guild Awards West Coast ceremony, held over the weekend at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills. During the comic's opening, the comic was cautious about taking shots at the Trump administration, explaining "Donald Trump, I want to be very careful about making jokes about. One, because I don't want to be kicked to death by James Woods backstage, which would be an honor, by the way. That would be amazing."
Following the quip, Woods himself stoop dup from the audience, yelling "Buy a pair of shoes!" before jumping on stage to pull off one of Oswalt's sneakers. Watch the clip below!
