    In an interview with the New York Times, Allen said he had no idea about C.K.'s work previously and he saw his talent for the first time in one of his short films. Allen stated, “He’s clearly such a sweet guy. I was dying to use him in something, so we used him to play the sweeter guy [inBlue Jasmine].”

    Allen added further, “I’d love to do a movie with him and me, a comedy. I’m looking for some idea that would work, for the two of us to do. Of course I hope that people aren’t disappointed that I don’t act with him [inBlue Jasmine], and he doesn’t have a commensurately comic part with his talent. But some day, I will get something that we could do together, because I do think it would be fun. I’m such a great fan of his.” Blue Jasmine opens on July 26 with Alec Baldwin and Cate Blanchett in the lead roles.
