Wilford Brimley Recalls When He Said No To ‘Seinfeld’ Until They Offered Him ‘Stupid Money’!

Hated hearing the news over the weekend that actor Wilford Brimley passed away. He was 85 and apparently had been dealing with a few aliments. I loved him in everything he appeared in, \’Cocoon\’, \’The Firm\’, \’The Natural\’ and many other films. But I was so surprised when I saw him in a \’Seinfeld\’ episode, playing the postmaster. What I didn\’t realize was that Brimley did NOT want to make a guest appearance on the show! Said he was too busy with movies and didn\’t want to do an episode for the small amount of money they typically paid for a role like this. But as you\’ll hear in this interview below, after much negotiating, Brimley agreed and got a BIG payday!!
