Larry David stopped by last night's LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN to talk about his upcoming Broadway debut in Fish In the Dark and revealed that he never had any intention of acting in the play. "I really did it this time Dave. I really got myself in a pickle," he shared, adding "Oh, this is a big sour pickle and I cannot squirm out of this. I got out of the army by pretending to be a psychopath, but this I can't get out of!" He went on to ask, "I'm not an actor, isn't that a problem?"
