00:00Talk to me about this look tonight. You look stunning. Thank you. Zuhair Murad, Raposi.
00:05I mean, it's just like, it's the SAG Awards. I kind of like a throwback to old Hollywood glamour.
00:10And so that's what I was leaning into. And of course, the Black Diamonds. These are my favorite.
00:15What does it mean that the SAG Awards are honoring the Landman cast this year?
00:19Well, I just, I think it's amazing to be nominated by our peers. That is the big thing.
00:23Because, you know, some people, the world loves Landman, but sometimes everyone can be a little bit,
00:28they can be a little critical of it. And when you're nominated by the actors, they see the work.
00:33And I think that that has been, to me, like, I don't know, the most surprising and exciting part of
00:38this.
00:38And to have our cast acknowledged, which is, I think, the coolest cats in the room. So, I'm really happy.
00:45That's amazing. Now, since we're celebrating actors tonight, I'm asking everyone,
00:49who's another actor that when they have a project out, you're like, I have to see it no matter what?
00:54Well, I mean, always Leonardo DiCaprio. I mean, I want to see everything he's in.
00:57Benicio Del Toro. I mean, all of them are amazing.
01:00I mean, there are so many people that inspire me. Jessica Chastain.
01:04I mean, they're, like, in my head. I always want to see what Margot Robbie's doing.
01:09I mean, there's just so many talented people. And I want to go to the theaters.
01:13Like, I want to go. I take my kids to the theater. And so, that, to me, is essential.
01:17And so, hopefully, we'll get to keep doing that.
01:19Do you have a pick for Best Picture this year at the Oscars?
01:22Yeah, one day. Of course.
01:24Or one battle after another?
01:26Yes, yes. One battle.
01:28It's like, one day after tomorrow. Yes.
01:30Maybe one day, it will win.
01:31Yeah, yeah, exactly. I'm coming off a little sinus infection.
01:35So, I'm like, I'm just like, okay, if you can be ready in four days, you can do this.
01:40So, hey, we're all here celebrating.
01:44But for you, how are you going to celebrate tonight after the show is over?
01:47Um, sweatpants, a cheeseburger, um, a big fat glass of Bordeaux, possibly a martini.
01:55Um, my husband's here. So, and we have so many friends here tonight.
01:58So, you know, we're going to go see Ike and go see our friends.
02:01And I'm really excited to celebrate everyone.
02:03And as someone who's been in Hollywood a long time, I want to ask you a little bit more of
02:06a serious question.
02:08What's your take on the Paramount-Warner Brothers deal?
02:10Well, I'm at Paramount. Um, and I think that that's what I was talking about going to the movies.
02:14I think that there's something about being able to not have things distract you
02:19when you're watching some of these big, beautiful movies that's different than watching it on television.
02:23And movies connect people. That's what I think most actors want to do this.
02:27It's like that human connection that we're looking for and giving people, like, a way to express their joy and
02:32their pain
02:33and connect with different stories that they may not know about.
02:36And so, I'm hoping that we continue to have more movies within the theaters.
02:41That is obviously the goal that I'm hoping is true. And that's what happens.
