[ cheers and applause ] announcer from 30 Rockefeller Plaza in new york, its late night with seth meyers. Tonight kristen bell star of their finest, actor bill nighy music from aquilo featuring the 8g band with Charlie Benante. [ cheers and applause ] ladies and gentlemen, seth meyers. Seth good evening, im seth meyers, this is late night. Hows everybody doing tonight . [cheers and applause] all right, in that case, lets get to the news. Former Trump Campaign manager Paul Manafort is being accused of laundering money from the Political Party of ukraines former president. Guilty said his face. [ laughter ] President Trump met with a Congressional Black Caucus today. And before the meeting, Jeff Sessions picked up the phone and dialed 91, just in case. [ laughter ] Supreme Court nominee neil gorsuch faced another round of questioning today during his confirmation hearing. Also facing another round . Trump [ light laughter ] according to a new report according to a new report, the average Health Insurance deductible is projected to be over 1500 higher under the republican plan to replace obamacare. And the only way thats good news is if hearing it gave you a heart attack now, while its cheaper. [ laughter and applause ] the white house said yesterday that President Trump was just having fun when he told a congressman that he would come after him for not supporting the obamacare replacement plan. The hardest part of this story to believe is that the president was having fun. [ light laughter ] this is him at a rock concert. [ light laughter ] a band he chose, playing at a party in his honor. Trump was having the least amount of fun of anyone at his inauguration, and hillary was there. [ laughter and applause ] just about every day, White House PressSecretary Sean Spicer holds a press conference where he answers questions from reporters. And to be honest, sometimes he doesnt make a whole lot of sense, which means its time for a new segment called breaking nonsense. [ cheers and applause ] seth so today, spicer was asked about whether President Trump knew that Paul Manafort had worked for a Russian Oligarch in ukraine ten years ago. And here was spicers answer. What else dont we know . I mean, where he went to school . What grades he got . Who he played with in the sandbox . Seth huh . [ laughter ] were not asking about the sandbox. Were asking about ukraine ten years ago. Have you seen manafort . Nobody played with him in the sandbox. [ light laughter ] thats the problem. Manafort looks like the only reason he went to a sandbox was to put out his cigarette. [ light laughter ] we dont need to wonder who he went to grade school with. He clearly grew up at the cab stand from goodfellas. [ laughter ] also, things that that happened ten years ago still matter, like how Goldman Sachs contributed to a major financial crisis. So now we know not to award them with cabinet positions oh, wait. Oh yeah, we did that. This has been breaking nonsense. [ cheers and applause ] an Obama AdministrationHomeland Security official said yesterday that he believes President Trump has the potential to be a great president. You know, kind of like how an airplane seat has the potential to be a flotation device. [ light laughter ] help, im drowning quick, throw me that moldy cushion [ light laughter ] walmart recently released a statement condemning the actions of two texas men who rode their horses through the store. Though really, its walmarts fault for selling them. [ laughter ] a new study has found three new substances in addition to catnip that will get cats high. And they are marijuana, crack, and heroin. [ light laughter ] so just have it on hand, you know . Researchers recently built an algorithm that can predict whether or not users are single based on their social media accounts. Said one user, yeah, youd think so, but no. [ laughter ] and finally a brewery has launched a new girl scout cookie flavored beer. So now this guy has a much worse problem. [ laughter ] ladies and gentlemen, we have a great show for you, tonight. [ cheers and applause ] from the new film chips, kristen bell is here tonight. [cheers and applause] hes one of my favorite actors and star of the new film their finest. Bill nighy is here today. [ cheers and applause ] also well have music from a very cool duo from the uk. Aquilo is our band tonight. [ cheers and applause ] looking forward to seeing all that. Before we get to that, the saga of President Trumps potential ties to russia and his false wiretapping claim continued today, overshadowing what would otherwise have been a crucial hearing for his Supreme Court nominee, neil gorsuch. For more on this, its time for a closer look. [ cheers and applause ] seth trump is apparently desperate for literally any good news these days. So, on tuesday, during a speech to the National Republican congressional committee, trump suggested that the party advertised its connection to one especially beloved president , Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln signed the law that built the first transcontinental railroad, uniting our country from ocean to ocean. Great president. Most people dont even know he was a republican, right . Does anyone know . A lot of people dont know that. We have to build that up a little bit more. Lets take an ad, lets use one of those pacs. Seth trump wants a super pac to take out an ad to let people know lincoln was a republican. [ laughter ] in fact, make sure hes wearing one of our hats. [ light laughter ] also, this can only mean one thing. Trump just found out lincoln was a republican. [ laughter ] dude [ cheers and applause ] the republicans literally call it the party of lincoln. Did you think they were talking about the car . [ laughter ] i thought i was going to be matthew mcconaughey. [ light laughter ] of course, trump is desperate for good press because on monday fbi director james comey both confirmed that the fbis investigating trumps ties to russia, and debunked his unfounded claim that thenpresident Obama Wiretapped him. Both the Russian Investigation and the wiretapping lie have been hanging over trump and his agendas. So, in an attempt to move on to other things, like the gorsuch nomination, members of trumps own party have been calling on him to apologize. Frankly, obama is owed an apology in that regard. Wouldnt it help if he kind of got real with everybody and said, i i im sorry . That needs to happen. Yes. Im going to quote my father, bob hurd, and its something that hes told all of my friends when theyve gotten married. It never hurts to say youre sorry. Seth i dont know, im pretty sure trumps wedding vows were just, i will never apologize. til next wife do we part. [ laughter ] it also doesnt hurt normal people to say, im sorry. But it might kill trump. I dont even think his mouth can make those words, im sor im soo [ light laughter ] im sooo right. [ laughter ] so some republicans want trump to apologize. Meanwhile. One of his biggest supporters, cnn commentator jeffrey lord, when hes not leading stranded travelers through a castle with a candelabra, is just coming up with a new excuse for trumps lies. You see trump isnt lying. Hes just speaking a different language. Look, i was on a radio talk show in birmingham, alabama, today. The Richard Dixon show, by name. And we were talking about the tweet about wiretapping, and all this sort of thing. And a host said to me that he is talking to his audience, and he says, you know, we speak americanese out here. And we know what he meant. What youre arguing then is, the fbi and the Justice Department are mistaken for taking the president literally, because they dont speak uh americanese. Americanese. Seth thats right, americanese. Its a combination of american and bitch, please. [ laughter ] and if you thought youd finally heard enough about the wiretapping story, think again. Because today the republican chairman of the house intelligence committee, devin nunes, claimed mysteriously that he had learned about possible legal surveillance conducted on members of the trump team. But rather than brief the members of his own committee, he ran directly to the white house and briefed the subject of his own investigation, donald trump. And not only that, he instantly contradicted himself on the question of whether president obama was involved. Was the president personally involved . It is it is possible. The president said that president obama tapped his phones. Have you seen anyting that did not happen. Seth obama might have been involved in something that definitely did not happen. [ light laughter ] also, youre supposed to be conducting the investigation. You dont go tell the guy youre investigating. Thats like Lennie Briscoe telling a suspect five minutes into an episode of law order, we found your prints at the scene you better scoot [ light laughter ] also none of this vindicates trump. Even nunes admitted that what trump said about obama was still wrong. Whats especially crazy about this is that when comey testified about the Russian Investigation to congress on monday, nunes said this. There is a big gray cloud that youve now put over people who have very important work to do to lead this country. Seth if comey put a big gray cloud over everything, nunes just Cheech Chonged it. [ light laughter ] and then theres the Russian Investigation. Questions are now swirling about trump aides and their ties to russia. Like former Campaign ChairmanPaul Manafort. Today the a. P. Reported that manafort secretly worked for a russian billionaire to advance the interest of russian president vladimir putin. Now, manafort was Trumps Campaign chariman from may to august last year. And yet on tuesday, White House PressSecretary Sean Spicer tried to make it sound like they barely knew the guy. Obviously theres been discussion of Paul Manafort, who played a very limited role for a very limited amount of time. Seth to be fair, im pretty sure everyone involved in the Trump Campaign played a limited role. You know, kind of like trump is doing now with the presidency. [ laughter ] but hes right. Where did people get this idea that manafort was a key player in Trumps Campaign . Its not like trump aides and trump himself repeatedly went on tv and bragged about manaforts role, right . Nobody should underestimate how much Paul Manafort did to really help get this campaign to where it is right now. Who do you believe will take over the campaign . Will it be Paul Manafort . Yeah, i think paul paul is, uh is totally in charge. Paul is totally in charge. Paul manafort, has done an amazing job. Hes here someplace. Wheres paul . [ applause ] Paul Manafort. Oh, good, you made it. Seth oh, good, you made it. How was russia . I mean, rushhourtraffic . [ laughter ] and then theres trumps friend and confidant, roger stone, who has kept in touch with trump during trumps presidency. Stone was also a guest at the inauguration where he wore this outfit. You know, how you dress to close an orphanage. [ laughter ] stone admitted recently that he had contact with the russian hacker accused of hacking the democrats but tried to cast the conversation as an innocuous brief exchange. Only a few direct messages that were so brief and banal i had forgotten it. To collude, i would have had to written him before. We would need a time machine to collude. Dude, are you sure you dont have one . [ light laughter ] you look like an alternate timeline where abe lincoln was a coke dealer. [ laughter ] a republican coke dealer. Just give me 60, and then ill give your coke to the 1 . [ light laughter ] so right now theres a cloud hanging over trump. His Approval Ratings have dropped to historic lows, and yet theres one thing that kept republicans from abandoning trump, and thats the Supreme Court. Even republicans who are worried about the Russian Investigation, like South Carolina senator lindsey graham, are willing to hold their noses in order to a give conservative like neil gorsuch a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court. In fact graham went out of his way to thank trump during the hearing yesterday. In case President Trump is watching, which he may very well be. One, you did a good job picking judge gorsuch. I really want to congratulate the president to pick you. Quite frankly, i was worried about who hed pick maybe somebody on tv. [ laughter ] seth ha ha. Because because you see, the president s an idiot. [ laughter ] i thought he was going to pick judge judy. [ laughter ] but he picked you. He picked you, so congratulations. By the way, trump probably did think he was picking a guy from tv. Get me the guy from ncis. [ laughter ] close enough. Ill take it. Seriously though, if theres one thing this hearing has made clear so far its that republicans love neil gorsuch. In fact, just look at the loving gaze of ted cruzs face as he watched gorsuch speak. [ laughter ] i havent seen that look on cruzs face since the iowa state fair when he saw that cow made of butter. [ laughter ] and if all this enthusiasm is a little exhausting to you, youre not alone. Later in the day, the chairman of the committee, who was running the hearing iowa senator, Chuck Grassley literally turned the gavel over to another senator so he could go to sleep. I have asked senator tillis to take over, about eight oclock, so i can be in bed by nine oclock. Because i get up at 4 00 in the morning and i want to able to be able to get a good nights sleep so i can run in the morning. Seth thats an 83yearold man who runs at 4 00 in the morning, which incidentally is the gop plan to replace medicare. [ laughter ] my glaucomas getting worse. Have you tried jogging in the dark . [ laughter ] of course republicans are probably so giddy during the hearing because they knew they were getting away with one of the greatest thefts in modern politics the stealing of a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court from president obama. And on top of that they got a conservative nominee who has shared very little about his actual views. In fact, gorsuch did everything he could during the hearings to evade even the most straightforward questions, using folksy mannerisms to charm the panel. Do you still have a friendship or relationship with him . I i last time i saw him gosh, gosh. I want to say it was 2008, maybe . You can call me naive if you want. I love to fish. I am not, you know, a philosopher king. I have written over, oh gosh, written or joined over six million words. Gosh, is that the its the gettysburg address. Have i ruled against the government . My goodness, goodness no. Goodness no. Goodness no. Goodness no, senator. I mean, golly. [ laughter ] seth does he want to be a judge in mayberry . cause i think even aunt bea would be like answer the question, asshole. [ laughter ] fundamentally, these hearings are awkward because were in the unprecedented situation of a president trying to fill a stolen Supreme Court seat while under the cloud of an fbi investigation. If the shoe were on the other foot, republicans would stonewall for four years. In fact, if Abraham Lincoln were here today, i think we all know what hed say. Do you want some cocaine . [ laughter ] this has been a closer look. [ cheers and applause ] well be right back with kristen bell, everybody. [ cheers and applause ] red line, 20 minute delay.

Seth please welcome to the show, kristen bell, everybody. [ cheers and applause ] seth so happy to see you. Im so happy to see you. Seth thank you for being here. I want to talk about this film, but i want to talk about Something Else first. You are a huge fan of the show dateline. Of course. Seth okay, this is keith morrison. Explain for those who have wasted their life, and have not watched dateline. Is there anyone who hasnt seen dateline . Seth maybe. I hope not. Listen, dateline, its its true crime. I like it very much. Its on five days a week. Ive seen almost every episode. And there is one correspondent who i took a particular liking to. His name is keith morrison. Seth yep. He is just first of all, hes this beautiful, just silver fox. Seth yeah. [ light laughter ] and hes got these when he interviews someone, he it seems as though hes known them for 25 years. Even the criminals. Seth yeah. [ laughter ] you cant believe it. And when he talks, he has this smooth, sexy voice. And its so smoky, i just love him. Seth yeah, and you got to interview him for the 25th anniversary of the show. I did. They asked me to interview him, and i was like, of course. And then i got really nervous, because i was interviewing like my the best interviewer, the second best interviewer. Seth thank you. Nice save. [ laughter ] but then i was like, hm, what do i ask him . What do i ask him . I mean, i definitely asked him, do you at the very least take your mic out for dinner and a movie before you record, because you like make love to that thing. Seth wow. And he, like, really didnt know what to do with that question, because i think maybe he thought it was going to be a legit interview. [ laughter ] and he kept asking me questions, and i was like, stay in your lane. Seth yeah. You know . Youre in the hot seat now, keith. Seth do you but i also needed some honest advice from him, because i had to get to him, because my husband googled from my phone, as a prank, how do i get away with murdering my husband . [ laughter ] and then he told me hes like seth whats the prank though . Guess what i just googled . That im on, like, a watch list i guess . Seth i think the only prank is, if your husband dies, youre a suspect. No, of course. And thats why i needed keith. I was like, second question, how much trouble am i in . Seth yeah. He said quite a bit. [ light laughter ] seth i like to think that theres still people out there who are googling how to kill a spouse. Like that, to me that youre not just taking it in your own hands. Like, a lot of people on dateline do it. Seth really . Yeah. Seth wow, well good for them. [ light laughter ] good for the internet. I guess, i guess. Seth people used to have to go to the library and say, do you have any books on killing a spouse . [ laughter ] yeah. Seth so your husband, who you mentioned, is dax shepard, who wrote and directed and was in that clip. I know. Seth starred, wrote, directed and can you believe it . He did everything. Seth you play his wife in the film . I do. Seth do you have to ask to play the wife or is it just assumed . No, its not assumed. Well, first of all, directors should be able to cast whoever they want. Seth yeah. But i was sleeping with the writer and the director and lead actor, so i knew i had a really good chance. [ laughter ] i said when he got the job, i said, oh, can i be in it . And he was like, of course, you can play my wife. And then he starts writing and like a month later, he genuinely sat me down and hes like, honey, im having a little bit of hesitation about actually casting you, because youre too, um uh, like, likeable. Seth oh. And i took it as a compliment, but hes like, youre just bubbly, and i dont want anybody wanting us to be together. And i said, i can be unlikable. Welcome to the next week of your life. [ laughter ] like, do you want me to audition . Because i will. No, but he legit did make me read the scene with him. Seth and this he was here yesterday, and he was talking, a lot of stunts for him. A lot of crashes. You took a great physical role. Yeah. Seth a risk, a physical risk. What was your listen. Seth a transformation . Well, it was yes, it was a physical sacrifice. And i feel like ive joined the ranks of, like, you know when christian bale, like, loses 200 pounds for a role. Seth right. I was like, my craft deserves it. I gotta do it. Im a serious actor. I was breastfeeding at the time. I wanted my character to have an aggressive boob job. Like aggressive, like its the only thing you can think about when you see someone. So i didnt pump for a full day. Seth uhhuh. And i said to the kids, daddys making a movie, go to the fridge, the food truck is closed. [ laughter ] its closed. And because im not well, you can see, im not working with much, but when i was breastfeeding, thats major. Seth yeah. [ light laughter ] and its real nice, and its funny because, like, when people see it, theres so much cleavage. And theyre like, wow, your husband kind of sexualized you. Im like, first of all, nobody sexualizes me but me. [ laughter ] okay . I suggested it, and the one disagreement we had on the set of chips was that i came out in that red bathing suit, and i had the zipper undone to like here. And i was, like, feeling so good. And hes like, honey, you gotta zip that up a little bit. Its like its good, but its pulling focus. You cant. And i was like, here . Hes like, no, more. Like, here . More. And so we settled. They were fun. Seth we just had a kid as well, and i know that ive transitioned into being a different kind of movie viewer. Because when i saw that clip, my reaction was, someone just had a kid. Yeah [ laughter ] someone needs to let a little off the top if you know what i mean. But its painful, you know, its painful when youre engorged. Seth yeah. No, i had no idea. Thats why it was my physical sacrifice. Seth this is your great thing. This is your charlize in monster. Yeah. Seth yeah. Youre going to get an oscar for this. I might. I dont know, guys. I havent heard anything yet, but it wouldnt shock me. Seth you wouldnt have heard yet. [ laughter ] you wouldnt have heard yet. Look at this lengths she went to. I dont even know when those things come out. Seth yeah. But i dont know. Let me know. Seth they do let you know. If you hear anything, will you let me know . Seth i will, i promise. [ laughter ] this is very exciting. Seth dax, of course, so excited about motorcycles. He loves motorcycles. He loves them. Seth is it true he is also a stunt man on the film . Oh, well heres the greatest thing. So he casts michael pena, who hes long loved. They basically fall in love on the movie. Like i was like i had to take a step back. Theyre so incredibly, like charming in the movie. Theres so much charisma between the two of them, and they like razz each other all the time. And mike was always like giving him flak, he was like, oh, your names got to be everywhere like, written by, directed by, like all the title cards. So to mess with him back, on the day that we shot the opening stunt sequence where michael is the driver and its this crazy, intense sequence, dax stunted him, just so that it would say in the credits, stunt double for michael pena, dax shepard. [ laughter ] seth that is a very effective burn. Its kind of the best, right . Seth yeah, thats really great. Also the best, i was talking to you backstage. The good place. Such a fantastic show. Thanks, i love it so much. Seth and you get to work with ted danson. Ugh, i know, right . [ cheers and applause ] seth incredible cast. Yeah. Seth our friend, mike schur is the creator. The best. The best of the best, mike schur. Seth and ted danson ive talked to people a lot about this. Hes such a lovely man, and thats very important, because nothing would be more heartbreaking than if ted danson was not a good person. Thats true. No, but he delivers. Seth hes the nicest person. Literally the nicest. From like, 6 00 in the morning, hes like, cheerful and sweet, and im like i dont want to talk to anyone before double digits. And like, if its before 10 00, we dont need to talk about it. But i weve like become really, really good friends, and we took i took him to i said, youre going to love this, because he likes games. I was like, come to an escape room with me. So dax and i took him and mary his wife Mary Steenbergen to an escape room in los angeles. But i made a mistake. Sometimes, they dont tell you seth so you go for those who dont know, you go into the escape room. Oh, yeah so you go into an escape room and its like, you get all these clues, and the room has all these crazy clues and you have to solve this puzzle and get out within an hour. And its really hard. Its like a big mind game. Seth but its fun because youre with a group, and you try to solve the clues together. Yeah, its like an interactive game. Seth right. And i took him what i didnt realize is that when we got there, they split our group into two and they separated us by like this tiny window. It was already a little of a bummer. Then they shut the lights off. And ted was like, whats happening . And they gave us flashlights. And i remember he was just he was standing there with his flashlight, and then he just sat down in a chair and handed me his flashlight and kind of sunk. [ laughter ] he did not have fun. And we didnt escape. It was a very hard one. But i havent given up. Im going to take him to another one, and he is going to enjoy it. Seth im sure he will. Yeah. Seth thank you so much for being here. Its always such a pleasure seeing you here. Thanks for having me. [ cheers and applause ] seth kristen bell, everybody. Chips opens in theaters this friday.

And that his brief moment of fame as inspector chanfort chanforth. Inspector chanforth. Please be calm, mr. Hilliard. I am perfectly calm. What you are seeing is controlled anger tempered with icy detachment. Its one of the many subtle emotions of which a good actor is capable. Seth please welcome to the show, bill nighy. [ cheers and applause ] seth im so honored to have you here. Thank you. Seth thank you for being here. And i want to ask from that clip, this is you play an actor who is finding out that he is not being offered the role of the younger character in a film. Yeah. Seth is this a moment you feel every actor has . Yeah, i think every actor goes through that. I certainly did. I remember a phone call when i was about 39, and i got a call from my agent in england saying, darling, its hamlet. Its moscow and tokyo. And i said, i dont want to play hamlet. She said, no, no, not hamlet. Claudius. Seth right. [ light laughter ] which means which means thats when you discover youre hamlets uncle. [ light laughter ] seth it gets worse. cause theres a skull in that play. [ laughter ] this the director of this film, you were a fan before you took this part. Yeah, i was desperate to work with lone scherfig, who made this film. Shes a danish filmmaker, very serious filmmaker, and she made a film called an education, with carey mulligan. It was a great movie. And mostly what i like about her is she laughs at my jokes. Seth oh, thats good. Yeah, thats really all i require from a director. She used to come from behind the camera just weeping with laughter and thats my kind of director. [ laughter ] seth you like to work with a fan of yours. Yeah, yeah. Seth this is very exciting, because i believe there are so many fans of this film, love, actually. A fantastic film, and [ cheers and applause ] thank you. Seth you just there was just a reunion with everyone from this cast for a fantastic Charity Event called red nose day. Yep. Seth so a tenminute short film, pretty much everybody shows up. Yep. Seth was it fun to see everybody again . Yeah, it was really cool. Everybody came. Nobody hesitated. Its to raise money for red nose day which is on may the 25th. Youll see whats happened to everybody in the 14 years since the movie was made. Its the perfect extrapolations of what might have gone on. I can im not allowed to tell you anything, except that you dont miss hugh grant. [ laughter ] and dont miss liam neeson. Seth okay. And everyone was back, and colin firth and Andrew Lincoln and Chiwetel EjioforKeira Knightley and lucia and colin firth. They were all back, and it was very, very nice to see everybody. Seth was it fun to because this is such an iconic character you played. Was it fun to revisit billy . It was tough getting into the trousers, but [ laughter ] you know, but i made it. Seth there you go. And i had to wear some kind of unsettling jewelry, and those shoes those shoes are very big and theyre electric blue, and you can bid for those shoes. Those shoes could be yours. Seth oh, really . Yeah. Seth well, thats fantastic. That goes with i dont think it goes with anything i own. But yeah. [ laughter ] and was that costume is it exciting for you when you have play a part with a costume that iconic and that fun to put on . Well, i mean i had to be persuaded in the original film. I had to be persuaded into lycra. Seth uhhuh. Which when youre i think i was i dont know, i think i was 48. You know, its tough when youre 48 to get into tight pants, but i and also they gave me a top which did not meet my trousers. [ light laughter ] seth thats a very unkind thing to ask a 48yearold, but youre a very youre a lean, mean, fighting machine. I felt like that you were the right one to do it. Well, thank you. [ laughter ] seth youre not liking lycra. Did that did you do a bunch of shakespeare . cause i know thats a sort of tight pants situation. Well i used to yeah, quite. I mean, people used to ask me why there was a considerable lack of classical work on my resume, and i used to joke that it was because i couldnt operate in those kind of trousers. And actually its true. [ laughter ] you know, i know its a pathetic thing for an actor to say, but if you if you want my to appear in public, i want to kind of look my best. You know what i mean . And i really can only operate in a decent lounge suit. What we used to call a lounge suit. Seth love, actually, ive heard you say, is this the film that sort of after this film, you had to audition less. In fact i didnt yeah, one of the greatest things thats ever happened to me professionally, and love, actually made it happen, was that i no longer had to audition. And if you ask any actor about that, they will tell you its like the greatest possible thing that could happen. And i because all those lonely mornings where you had to sit in outer offices and then go in and pretend to bounce up and down and be on horseback and have an imaginary sword. [ light laughter ] you know, and do internal monologues on horseback. Those were terrible days and they stopped because of love, actually. Seth so thats a great gift. Are you the kind of actor who enjoys watching yourself on film . I would rather drive nails through my eyeballs, to be honest. [ laughter ] seth what about it cause i enjoy it a great deal.

Seth and i would argue he is the best of all time. Hes the king. He does something, which he makes looks very, very easy, and very simple, but very few people can actually do. Which is to be kind of not only is he impossibly goodlooking obviously, but to be kind of heroic and dignified and funny, too. And he does it with great ease. And im a huge fan of his. And i do like romcoms. I mean, if im flipping on tv and i get to Jerry Mcguire i stay there. [ laughter ] because where are you going to go . You know .
