Jeff Goldblum ... motorcycle guy? | The Autoblog interview | 'The World According to Jeff Goldblum: Motorcycles' debuts on January 19 on Disney+
Interesting guy, Jeff Goldblum. With a wildly successful career as an actor stretching from 1974, when he debuted in his first role as Freak #1 in the film"Death Wish," to several pre-production credits in 2022 , Goldblum has 139 acting credits on his résumé.
Jeff Goldblum: Well, the great people at Nat Geo and Nutopia had a list of things, and I talked about my past histories with them. And having to ride them in a couple of movies … most prominently in my memory in my professional life, “Nashville.” And that was a crazy experience, I didn’t know how to ride, so I took up lessons in New York and was riding around the streets of Manhattan, and finally found out once I got in Nashville that I’d failed the test.
So yeah, it’s not something that thrilled me, and I didn’t want to get hurt. That’s for sure. Statistics will tell you that it’s a little riskier to drive around on a motorcycle. I had another friend who got into an accident on his bicycle, for heaven’s sakes, and I was like, ‘Hey, you know, you might want to rethink the thing … I know it’s a lot of fun for you, but one of these days … it’s always a trade-off I guess.
Autoblog: So you did get on a bike and ride again. How did it make you feel? Did you actually enjoy that? Jeff Goldblum: I’ll bet! But I bet I’d really love them if I gave them a chance, because, you know, cars were never all that romantic to me, but bicycles — when I started to ride bicycles and could, you know, increase my speed beyond walking, and the distance I could go away from home, it really felt like I was on my own and that I was having a grand adventure.
Jeff Goldblum: Huh, you know, I have no immediate plans. I would be — and one of the upshots that I show — is that it’s such an inviting, and cordial, and delightful, and diverse and interesting community. And feeling like part of that family was great. So, I’d like to stay in touch with them, and yeah. I wouldn't mind it, under the right circumstances, it could be a whole lot of fun.
