Tim Allen Tools Up For More

Everyone’s favorite animated astronaut is gearing up for a new season of his hit sitcom Last Man Standing, another stab at Toy Story, and a rare area performance.

There are few celebrities of the modern age as perennially relevant as Tim Allen. From middle-aged dads who fondly recall the megahit sitcom Home Improvement to the under-12 set with a soft spot for Toy Story’s Buzz Lightyear, the actor, author, and comedian is likely a familiar face — or voice.

Nowadays, Allen is perhaps best known for his role as Mike Baxter on the all-American sitcom Last Man Standing. It seemed that the show was set to disappear from the airways when ABC declined to renew it last May — but Fox stepped in and picked up the comedy for a seventh season. Throughout the travails, Allen never wavered in his support of the sitcom.

“I was the last person in the hospital while the show was on life support,” Allen says in a hushed voice. “I would come by the hospital every day and hold the show’s hand, and, before we knew it, we got 90 percent of commitments from most of the people I wanted — mainly the crew, the set, and the studio — and it all came back together.” The show is now set for a September 28 season premiere on Fox.

When asked why Last Man Standing struck such a chord with audiences, Allen admits it has a lot to do with the show’s tone and subject matter. “We didn’t make fun of things; we just had fun with things. I always thought the idea of it was a guy with three daughters, since I have two, and I loved Home Improvement, with the odd three boys, mixed, so I said let’s do one with three girls,” he explains. “I wanted to be like Archie Bunker, but with a degree in marketing from the University of Michigan.”

“The muscles that standup comedy exercises are almost like the legs or the core: They are the most important.”

The filming also struck a chord with Allen himself, who developed a special bond with his supporting cast. “I come from the world of standup comedy, where most of my life, I’ve worked onstage by myself. So I get really attached to people on movie sets and television shows,” he shares. “My family’s always been really tight — my real family — but sometimes I mistake these showbiz families for real, and they all look at me and go, ‘You know we’re not actually family, Tim.’ And I’m like ‘Oh, yeah, that’s a little disappointing actually.’”

Allen is once again returning to this standup that marked much of his career with a November 15 performance at Stamford’s Palace Theatre. For Allen, who could easily rest on his film work, standup is an indispensable part of life. “The muscles that standup comedy exercises are almost like the legs or core: They are the most important,” he says. “Touring is a lot of work, but if you come see me, I’m going to give you everything I’ve got.”

Allen traces this passion for the stage to the first time he saw a certain comedian’s standup act. “I saw Richard Pryor, and I was enamored. I said, ‘That’s what I want to do; I want to be as funny as that guy, as honest as that guy, as rock ’n’ roll comedy as that guy,’” recalls Allen. “Once I got to the point where I could do that, there was nothing like it. There is a deep level of connection to a different part of me more than in any show or movie — there’s nothing like standup comedy.”

According to Allen, sitcom work is so enjoyable because it is a combination of theater, film-type television, and the joys of standup.”[Sitcoms are] like a bridge between all of the art forms; that’s why I’m back at it, and that’s why I fought so hard for Last Man Standing.”

And yet despite this journey to the top, audiences can expect a standup show surprisingly true to the subjects Allen has always favored: the women in his life.

“They’re just complex, wonderful, scary, beautiful, horrifying… I mean there’s so much, and that’s really where all of it comes from,” he says with a laugh. “My act is really about my growing up and how this world has affected me, but the basis of that really is how the women in my life have molded me and made me what I am.”

As for what Allen is, the term megastar often comes to mind. While he has appeared in films ranging from The Santa Clause to Galaxy Quest, his work voicing Buzz Lightyear for each Toy Story film is one of the major reasons the title sticks. He is now getting ready to reprise his role with Toy Story 4, which is currently in production.

“It’s become an iconic thing and much bigger than me,” says Allen. “Pixar is so meticulous about content that my side of the story is not completely ironed out yet, but I love doing the character. It always goes back to that original story that Pixar wrote about friendships. It was a wonderful story, and it continues to be a wonderful story.” The same could be said of Tim Allen’s career.

Below, he rounds up the cream of the new fall film crop.

Mainstream

A Star Is Born

Oct 5

“Oscar nominee Bradley Cooper not only stars in this remake of the classic showbiz romantic tragedy — he makes his directorial debut here, as well. Previous versions featured Janet Gaynor, Judy Garland, and Barbra Streisand as the young striver who rises. This time it’s Lady Gaga, as the would-be singer-songwriter whose self-destructive lover turns her into a star. Cooper himself plays the country singer on the skids, even as he guides Gaga through her first dramatic onscreen role.”

Venom

Oct 5

“Tom Hardy, who put on a mask to play Batman’s nemesis Bane and then as a fighter pilot in Dunkirk, dons a horror-mask version of Spider-man as an anti-hero escapee from the Marvel realm. Hardy plays a reporter whose body and mind are taken over by an alien being known as a symbiote, which — oh, don’t even ask. Just know that it gives him superpowers, as well as an appetite for carnage. Plus, this guy has a mouthful of teeth like a shark that he isn’t afraid to use.”

First Man

Oct 12

“How do you top La La Land? How about taking audiences on a trip to the moon? That’s what Oscar-winning director Damien Chazelle offers in his new film, about America’s first manned descent to the moon’s surface in 1969. He re-teams with actor Ryan Gosling, who plays Neil Armstrong who (spoiler alert) stepped into history as the title character. The cast includes Kyle Chandler, Claire Foy and Corey Stoll.”

Underground

Beautiful Boy

Oct 12

“Steve Carell and last year’s It-boy, Timothee Chalamet (Call Me By Your Name), costar in this true story based on the memoirs by writer David Sheff and his son Nic. Sheff, a successful journalist, discovers he is helpless to make a difference when his son becomes addicted to methamphetamine. It sounds like the kind of movie which, done correctly, could end up harvesting armloads of awards.”

The Old Man and the Gun

Sept 28

“Robert Redford stars in the true story of Forrest Tucker, a bank robber who escaped from San Quentin at the age of 70 and pulled off an unprecedented series of bank heists during a four-year spate of freedom. Sissy Spacek, Keith Carradine, Danny Glover, and Elisabeth Moss costar in the tale of an affable criminal who found a way to make the most of his golden years.”

Where’d You Go, Bernadette

Oct 19

“Missing mothers seem to be a theme in a couple of fall films, especially tales of women making unexpected discoveries about the early lives of their absent matriarchs. In this one, adapted by Oscar-nominee Richard Linklater (Boyhood) from the novel by Maria Semple, a teenager must track down her missing, anxiety-prone mom (Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett), and finds that she doesn’t know her mother at all.”
