00:00And how are we, sir? How are we?

00:02How are you doing, sir?

00:03I'm very well, mate. Very well.

00:04One of the most charismatic men in British film, I would say.

00:06But charisma means nothing in the face of these giant toothy beasts.

00:10Were these guys the most imposing co-stars you've had in your career to date?

00:14I never really saw any of my giant toothed co-stars.

00:19I just imagined them.

00:22So, nah, my co-stars on this, as the actors,

00:26like coming tonight, I'm less excited about the movie and everything.

00:30I'm just more excited to see my friends.

00:32You know, Bashir, Mahershala.

00:34I wish Philippine could be here today as well.

00:36You know, David, Manuel, Scarlett.

00:39Like, it's really a lovely group of people.

00:44A little word on the magnitude of this franchise.

00:47When you set the movies in, you think, okay, we're used to this.

00:49But as soon as that music kicks in on this carpet,

00:52the hairs start to stand up on the back end.

00:54What does, like, the Jurassic Park sort of world and franchise mean to you?

00:58Where does it take you back to?

01:00It takes me back to being 10 years old, you know?

01:02Same time I was enjoying Grease and Some Like It Hot

01:05and Sister Act and Laurel and Hardy and Ninja Turtles

01:08and Saved by the Bell, you know?

01:10This was, like, this is the stuff that raised us, you know?

01:13The stuff that made us.

01:14And so it's amazing now to be here, to have my children here with me,

01:17for them to be able to come and enjoy it.

01:19So I'm going to go see my children now.

01:21Congratulations, man. Have an awesome night.

01:23Cheers, dude.
