I made a mental note of it, so there’s a lot of specific close-ups from that moment on, always following where that gun is knowing that it ended up killing Barry.”

The actor shared how he related to Barry’s mental issues. “When I was on Saturday night live I used to get panic attacks quite often,” Hader said PEOPLE at 10. “You know Barry’s having a panic attack and you’re like, ‘I know exactly what that feels like.’

“I had a big existential crisis when How I Met Your Mother ended, about my relationship to work, because at some point I was like, really a workaholic,” he said vanity fair. “I had a short period where I could do whatever I wanted. And I was very unhappy, and I couldn’t understand why. So when How I Met Your Mother I ended up spending a long time, about five years, trying to design my relationship with work in a way that would be sustainable for me and interesting to me.”
