00:00Well, what brought you out tonight to celebrate the museum here?

00:03She did.

00:04Okay.

00:05I'm not big on dress-up dinners, but I figured the Academy, you know, that's meaningful.

00:12Yeah.

00:13And I'm just honored that they asked it all.

00:15Yeah.

00:16And you've got Wild Robot that just came out, right?

00:1998% on Rotten Tomatoes.

00:22It's really wonderfully done.

00:24I read the book, and I thought if they can capture even 30% of the charm, this has got

00:30to be a winner, and they just did a great job.

00:33It's fun for all ages.

00:36And I've got three films coming out next year, The Life of Chuck, The Long Walk, both of them

00:42based on Stephen King's writings, and I'm the main villain in the SpongeBob SquarePants

00:48movie for next Christmas.

00:51That's strange.

00:52What are you kind of looking for in projects you're taking right now?

00:56I like doing things that I've never done before, like House of Usher.

01:00I was playing this soulless, sociopathic, evil lawyer, and I thought, why do they think of

01:06me?

01:07But I love it.

01:08Mike Flanagan has really been a godsend for me, because not only did he do House of Usher,

01:13but he did The Life of Chuck, which even though he's known for horror and so is Stephen King,

01:19this is anything but a horror film.

01:21And it got the Audience Favorite Award at the Toronto Film Festival.

01:25Yeah.

01:26So it's unlike anything I've ever seen, and certainly anything I've ever been a part

01:31of.

01:32I know there's a few Star Wars pieces in the museum here.

01:35Is there anything that's missing that you feel like should be added?

01:39What do they have, do you know?

01:40I think they have R2-D2, and yeah, they got a couple of stuff like that.

01:44Duvall?

01:45Yeah.

01:46That's more than I have.

01:47Yeah.

01:48Do you have any stuff from that time, or...?

01:50I remember one of the ... I got that black cap from the Death Star.

01:57I always ask, can I keep this?

02:01But I was never very aggressive.

02:03I heard, like, Adam Driver kept his whole outfit or whatever.

02:08Who knows?

02:09I don't think that way.

02:11I mean, I'm not a big collector, really.

02:15You're not just taking it and running?

02:17No, no, no.

02:18And like I say, I always ask.

02:20I usually take something small, like I kept my eyeglasses from House of Usher, and what

02:25did I keep from Chuck?

02:26Remember?

02:27No.

02:28I don't either.

02:29Probably nothing.

02:30Okay.

02:31Well, thank you so much.

02:32Have fun tonight.

02:33Hello.

02:34Hello.

02:35Hello.

02:36Hello.

02:37Hello.

02:38Hello.

02:39Hello.

02:40Hello.

02:41Hello.

02:42Hello.

02:43Hello.

02:44Hello.

02:45Hello.

02:46Hello.

02:47Hello.
