Jerry Trainor Says He Went ‘Nuclear’ In His ‘Drake and Josh’ Audition for Crazy Steve: ‘The Rest is History’


Jerry Trainor went all out in the audition for his breakout role of Crazy Steve on the Nickelodeon classic 'Drake and Josh.'

During a discussion at GalaxyCon, Trainor explained how he landed the role of Crazy Steve, an aggressively temperamental movie theater employee who would explode on fellow cast members Drake Bell and Josh Peck at the slightest inconvenience. Trainor was brought in for a “rush audition,” which meant the “Drake and Josh” casting directors needed to fill the role ASAP. He also played the eccentric brother of internet superstar Carly Shay in another Nickelodeon staple, “iCarly.” That show ran for 93 episodes across six seasons from 2007-2012.
