Dr. McDreamy, Patrick Dempsey, stars in the romantic comedy "Made of Honor," which is like "My Best Friend's Wedding," with Dempsey in the Julia Roberts role. He spoke to Ramin Setoodeh.

Hi, Patrick. How are you doing?
I'm good. I'm multitasking, trying to get my script organized, with all these rewrites, and listening to NPR—let me shut that off.

Are you on the "Grey's Anatomy" set?
I am.

Are you in scrubs right now?
I am indeed.

This new movie's a slapstick comedy.
I like the old classic comedies—Cary Grant could be a great romantic lead and do slapstick. That's something we thought about. So the director asked me if I could juggle.

Didn't you win a juggling contest when you were a kid?
I came in second in the international jugglers' junior division when I was 12 or 13.

Did you get a trophy?
I got a plaque. I'm sure my mother has it somewhere.

I heard there was a scene cut from the movie with you in a wedding dress.
I don't look good in a dress. I don't have the shoulders.
