DESCRIPTION: We are so thrilled to be joined by Greg Grunberg, who appears in “Mission: Impossible 3.” He talks about his close relationship with JJ Abrams, tells some great Tom Cruise stories (and shares his memories of watching the bridge sequence being filmed), and recalls how he forced JJ to create a character for him in “Felicity.” It’s a blast!
