Jon Heder, forever linked to ‘Napoleon Dynamite,’ the indie comedy that became a pop-culture phenomenon in 2004, sits down with ET’s Kevin Frazier for this Then & Now. More than two decades later, Heder reflects on the role that changed his life, revealing he never actually auditioned for the film before revisiting his first-ever ET interview. The actor also looks back on filming ‘Blades of Glory,’ recounting the injury he suffered while preparing for the role, and teases a possible reunion with Will Ferrell for a sequel. While Heder says he’d be game to lace up the skates again, he admits he’s less certain how a ‘Napoleon Dynamite’ follow-up could work. Now living with his wife and four children in Washington, where he also co-owns an amateur baseball team with a former ‘Napoleon Dynamite’ co-star, Heder opens up about life away from Hollywood and previews his latest project, ‘Nation’s Dumbest,’ premiering July 15 on Fox.
