01:13You made it.
01:15Well, guys, it was another absolutely freezing day
01:18here in New York City.
01:19Oh, my gosh.
01:20It was so cold, I went to LaGuardia
01:22just to be groped by the TSA.
01:24I'm like, go for it, go for it.
01:26You can't even feel anything down there.
01:27Go for it.
01:29If you find it, good luck.
01:31I don't know what to say.
01:32It was so cold, I didn't Uber to work.
01:34I luged.
01:36Right.
01:38Seriously, I haven't been this frozen
01:40since I watched heated rivalry with my grandmother.
01:42I mean, that's how...
01:45It is brutal out there.
01:48It is so cold, Al Roker went on hot ones
01:50and shoved the wings down his pants.
01:52I didn't know what just happened.
01:55Let's get to some news here.
01:56Today, President Trump delivered a speech
01:58at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland,
02:00and at one point, he called Greenland a piece of ice.
02:05In response, the people of Greenland
02:07called Trump a piece of something else.
02:08Oh, right.
02:11And people are talking about this.
02:18People are talking about this.
02:19During his speech, Trump insisted that the U.S.
02:21acquiring Greenland said that he won't use force to get it.
02:25When asked how he'll get Greenland's Trump stuff
02:27to McNuggets in his cheeks and said,
02:29I'm going to make them an offer they can't refuse.
02:34I'm going to make them an offer they can't refuse.
02:40It's an impression of some guy doing an impression.
02:43It's like a turd ducking.
02:45Yeah.
02:47Meanwhile, I read that, uh, Trump ducking.
02:50Uh, I read that European leaders at the forum
02:53planned to stage an intervention with Trump
02:55about his desire to own Greenland.
02:57Yeah, it's the only intervention where the group
02:59tells one person,
03:00you're giving us a drinking problem.
03:01Okay?
03:03You're giving us.
03:04Did you guys see this?
03:05On the way to Switzerland,
03:06Trump had to turn back shortly after takeoff
03:08due to a minor issue on Air Force One.
03:11Oh, minor issue?
03:13You mean Epstein?
03:14Oh.
03:16What?
03:17Oh, no.
03:18No, no, no, minor.
03:19What's that?
03:20No, a minor electrical issue.
03:22Oh, electrical issue.
03:22Yeah, yeah.
03:23A minor electrical.
03:25Okay, my bad.
03:26Yeah.
03:27No problem.
03:29A minor electrical issue on Air Force One
03:31happened after Trump tried to plug in a tanning bed
03:33and his hairdryer in at the same time.
03:39More news from Switzerland.
03:40Yesterday, while giving a speech,
03:42French President Emmanuel Macron
03:43wore a pair of aviators.
03:45Take a look at this.
03:46Yeah.
03:48Yeah.
03:49Yeah, he said the reason for wearing the glasses
03:50was to cover up an unsightly eye condition,
03:52but I don't know.
03:53It kind of sounds like it let it go to his head.
03:55I mean, check out this clip.
03:57Business leaders, your majesties,
04:00distinguished heads of state and governments,
04:02chickens, cheeky babies, cool cats, daddios,
04:06dweeboids, chums, hot momos, posers,
04:09nerds, nerdettes, dream boats, squares,
04:11grease poles, and foreign dignitaries.
04:15Let's not all flip our lid, you dig?
04:17Yeah.
04:18He changed it a little bit.
04:19Cut to his head.
04:24Hey, I read that J.D. Vance and his wife, Usha,
04:27announced that they were pregnant with their fourth child.
04:29Yeah, that'll be nice to hear the pitter-patter
04:31of little feet around the White House
04:32that aren't Marco Rubio's.
04:37Yeah, J.D. Vance and his wife are having another baby.
04:40Well, that can be a lot of work,
04:41so I've got a little advice for the vice president.
04:44Having a newborn can be tough.
04:46When they're born, they come out screaming,
04:48you know, like...
04:49No! Get those lights off!
04:53They can be up all night,
04:54and then they're sleeping all day.
04:56You know, like...
04:57This is taxpayer money.
04:58When the president said,
04:59we're going to do foreign aid,
05:00but we're going to do foreign aid for countries...
05:02Of course, they can't talk,
05:04so they struggle to communicate.
05:06You know, like...
05:08Ha!
05:12They only speak in baby talk.
05:14You know, like...
05:16Bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, shoo!
05:21The main focus is milk.
05:23You know, like...
05:24Whole milk.
05:26And it's whole with a W.
05:30Oh!
05:32Oh, no!
05:33You always know when they're, well,
05:36going to the bathroom.
05:38Ah!
05:39Ah!
05:40Ah!
05:41Ah!
05:42Blah!
05:44But after all that work,
05:46it's worth it when they look at you
05:47and show you love.
05:49Kind of like...
05:53In the end,
05:54just know that one day
05:55he'll say his first words.
05:56You know, like...
05:57Daddy, you're my daddy.
05:59I hope that helps.
06:08Well, switching gears,
06:10I saw that Lego just unveiled
06:11the 2,000-piece Golden Retriever set.
06:14Yeah, it's perfect for anyone
06:15who's always tripping over their dog
06:17and thinking,
06:17oh, if only this were made out of Legos.
06:22Well, this is going viral.
06:23The cast of Hamnet
06:24had a massive dance break
06:26to Rihanna's song,
06:27We Found Love,
06:28when they wrapped production.
06:29After such an intense, long production,
06:31I'm sure that the cast
06:32loved relieving some stress.
06:33Take a look.
06:34It's really fun.
06:39We found love in a hopeless place.
06:43We found love in a hopeless place.
06:51Isn't that great?
06:52Aw.

09:35Good one.
09:36Well, guys, according to a new survey,
09:38two out of three Americans say President Trump
09:40has not done enough to lower the prices of everyday goods.
09:43Mmm.
09:44Well, we wanted to find out more, so we conducted our own poll.
09:46It's time for We Polled 3 Americans.
09:55All right. First, we asked,
09:57What should President Trump be doing to lower prices?
10:00Person 1 said remove the tariffs.
10:02Person 2 said stabilize trade relationships.
10:05Person 3 said,
10:06Wow, good answers.
10:08Was I supposed to study for this?
10:11Next, we asked,
10:13What's one everyday item that's gotten more expensive?
10:15Person 1 said eggs.
10:16Person 2 said rent.
10:18Person 3 said,
10:19Did you give them the answers?
10:21I'll say rented eggs.
10:23Is that a thing?
10:25Then we asked,
10:26What are you personally doing to adjust to the higher prices?
10:29Person 1 said cutting back on extras.
10:32Person 2 said budgeting more carefully.
10:34Person 3 said,
10:35Are person 1 and person 2 dating?
10:37They seem really dialed in.
10:41Next, we asked,
10:42Do you think tariffs play a role in higher costs?
10:44Person 1 said absolutely.
10:46Person 2 said they affect the supply chain.
10:48Person 3 said,
10:49Supply chain tariffs.
10:50Totally, I knew that.
10:51Maybe we could all three get together sometime.
10:55Then we asked,
10:56How confident are you in your understanding of the economy?
10:58Person 1 said,
10:59Fairly confident.
11:00Person 2 said,
11:01Pretty confident.
11:02Person 3 said,
11:03I feel like if we were in a thruple,
11:05you guys could catch me up on some political stuff.
11:08Person 1 said,
11:09Definitely not.
11:10Person 2 said,

12:44You're busy, busy, busy.

12:47Producing and starring in this new film.
12:49I saw over the summer, by the way, it went viral
12:51because you were on stage with Role Model.
12:53Yes.
12:54You were Sally.
12:55I was Sally in Role Model's
12:57Madison Square Garden concert
12:59because we were making a movie together.
13:02He's an actor as well.
13:03Really?
13:04Tucker Pillsbury is his actor name.
13:06Tucker Pillsbury?
13:07Yes!
13:10That's fantastic.
13:11And, um...
13:11That's Role Model's name.
13:12Yes!
13:12So he was doing the show at MSG.
13:14But you came out and surprised everybody.
13:16Were you nervous?
13:16I was so scared.
13:19Like, that's crazy that people do that.
13:21It is, right?
13:22I mean, you all do that.
13:23Yeah, the roots do it.
13:23Get up in front of that many people.
13:25It's insane.
13:26But you had to dance and it was...
13:28But it went viral.
13:28Everyone loved it.
13:29I wore it.
13:30My son, my 14-year-old, started a clothing line called Devante.
13:34Of course he did.
13:35And thank you.
13:36I'm very proud of him.
13:37Come on.
13:37That's gold right there.
13:39And so he really just did it all on his own.
13:42And so I wore one of his shirts on stage.
13:45So I just kind of felt like a banner for him.
13:48It was very exciting.
13:49We actually have a clip.
13:50Take a look.
14:03Come on.
14:04That's fun.
14:06That's how you do it.
14:09The Oscar nominations come out tomorrow.
14:12And I know you've won an Oscar.
14:14Yeah.
14:16Very lucky.
14:18Yeah, here you are holding the Oscar.
14:19What do you remember about Oscar night?
14:22Well, I was pregnant, as you see, with my son, who's now 14.
14:26Wow.
14:27And everyone thought...
14:28You've been throwing him off since...
14:30Yeah, basically since he was in utero.
14:32But everyone thought I was going to, like, give birth on stage.
14:35And I was, like, four months pregnant.
14:37I was like, I'm just real short.
14:38Dude, I'm not even halfway done.
14:39I'm like, short girls show real fast.
14:42Well, yeah.
14:43Is it tough and heals when you're...
14:46It's scary.
14:47You think you're going to, like, fall on your face.
14:49Right?
14:49Yeah.
14:50Yeah, but you did that.
14:51I did it.
14:51You crushed it, yeah.
14:52Thanks.
14:53That's nice.
14:56You've been acting professionally since you were 12, I want to say?
14:59Yeah.
15:00I did the professional.
15:02I actually turned 12 while I was shooting that movie.
15:04Really?
15:04Here in New York City, yeah.
15:06But I was shocked to find out your superlative in your yearbook
15:09had nothing to do with acting.
15:11Can you tell everyone what your superlative was?
15:13It's really embarrassing, though.
15:14I like...
15:16Thanks for your laugh.
15:17Well, I was already an actress in high school.
15:19Yes.
15:20And, like, there were superlatives, like, most likely to win an Oscar,
15:24most likely...
15:25Not for you.
15:25I did not get those.
15:26I got most likely to be on Jeopardy.
15:28There you go!
15:29That's what I'm...
15:31I was, like, such a dork.
15:34I was, like, known for...
15:35I always had, like, Whiteout on my hands,
15:37and I had, like, a really big backpack.
15:39No!
15:41You really...
15:42Have you ever been asked to be on Jeopardy?
15:44I was.
15:45I was asked to be on, like, you know, like, Celebrity Jeopardy!
15:48Yeah.
15:48And I was very...
15:49Yeah.
15:50Have you ever done it?
15:51Are you kidding me?
15:52No.
15:53Wheel of Fortune, maybe.
15:54That's more my speed.
15:56I worked my way up.
15:57No, I think you start with Madison Square Garden,
15:59then you do Jeopardy!
16:00Okay.
16:00Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
16:01That's the obvious trajectory.
16:02That's the obvious trajectory.
16:03Yeah.
16:04In addition to acting, you've become a powerhouse producer.
16:08Congratulations.
16:09You're about to...
16:09Arco is the animated film we're going to talk about.
16:12But also, you're about to go to Sundance Film Festival.
16:15Yes.
16:15Tell me about this one.
16:16So, Arco is the animated film that's going to be out in theaters this week.
16:20Yeah.
16:20Which is so beautiful.
16:22It's crazy.
16:22I'm so proud of it.
16:24Yeah.
16:24What a great look.
16:25First time director.
16:26All hand-drawn.
16:27Beautiful look to it.
16:29Super inspiring and adventurous for kids.
16:31What's the Sundance film?
16:32And the Sundance film is called The Gallerist.
16:34It's a movie by Cathy Yan, and I play a gallerist in it.
16:38It's kind of an art world satire.
16:40Yeah.
16:40And it's an amazing cast, and I'm really, really excited about it.
16:45Well, there's a great cast in Arco, by the way.
16:47The voices in Arco.
16:48Yes.
16:49It's everybody.
16:49So, we got Will Ferrell.
16:50Come on.

17:35Come on now.
17:36Natalie Portman!
17:40And you and Mark are getting rave reviews as well.
17:43How do we sum up what the film's kind of about?
17:46I love the theme of it and the idea.
17:48So, there's a boy, Arco, who steals his sister's time travel cape.
17:53He lives in the future.
17:54And he time travels to his past, which is also our future.
17:59Yeah.
17:59And meets a girl there named Iris.
18:00And together, they kind of learn how to imagine a different way of the world being.
18:06Oh, it's so good.
18:07It's so...
18:08It's very beautiful.
18:09I'm very proud of it.
18:10And I feel like I can say it because I'm, you know, the mere producer.
18:15The director is incredible.
18:17It's his first movie.
18:18Yeah.
18:18Who is the director?
18:18His name's Hugo Bienvenue.
18:20And he's a French, young French filmmaker.
18:22And what drew you to this film?
18:24He, the first time he showed me the animatic, which was so beautiful.
18:29Is it style?
18:30I don't know what...
18:30The style is so...
18:31I don't know how to compare it.
18:32...stunning.
18:33Yeah.
18:33And he said to me, it's about a memory of the future.
18:37And I was like, that's...
18:38That's so cool!
18:39Such an amazing way to describe...
18:40I'm getting a tattoo!
18:41I'm getting a tattoo!
18:42Hello!
18:43Yes!
18:43Yes!
18:44But where?
18:45It could be...
18:46Of course, my abs.
18:48Where all the good ones go, man.
18:50Everyone's looking at the beach, man.
18:54I want to show a clip.
18:55Here's a scene from Natalie Portman's Arco.
18:57Take a look.
18:58It's wrong.
18:59Calm down.
19:00It won't hurt you.
19:02It's Mickey.
19:03It took care of you.
19:04What's your name?
19:06Arco.
19:08Arco what?
19:10Arco Durrell.
19:13You don't exist.
19:15You don't...
19:16But Mickey...
19:16He's right here.
19:18Do not...
19:18Do exist.
19:19Do not exist.
19:20You don't...
19:22What's the matter with you?
19:23You...
19:24Do not exist.
19:25You...
19:26Do not exist...
19:28...no.
19:29Whoa.
19:30He made a crash.
19:32Is it dead?
19:33Of course not. Robots don't die.
19:36Oh, come on, now.
19:38Natalie Portman, everybody!
19:42ARCO opens in New York and L.A. this Friday
19:45and in theaters everywhere January 30th.
19:47Natalie and I are doing something fun after the break.
19:49Stick around, everybody!
19:56Another thing that fans are loving, by the way,
19:58is Jonathan's run, the way he runs.
20:02Do you hear about this?
20:04Now, did you pick a...
20:05How could I not hear about this?
20:06I don't know, but did you pick a certain run?
20:08I love, you know...
20:18Welcome back, everybody.
20:20We're hanging out with Natalie Portman.
20:21Come on!
20:25We are about to play the Whisper Challenge.
20:33Whisper Challenge.
20:35Here's how the game works.
20:37One person puts on these headphones with loud music playing.
20:39You can play this at home if you want to.
20:41And then the other person picks up a card,
20:43reads the random word or phrase on that card,
20:46and the person wearing headphones has to try and guess
20:48what they just said.
20:49Natalie, you will put the headphones on first.
20:50I will read what's on the card, and you'll guess what I am saying.
20:53Let me turn the music on. Ready for this?
21:00Okay.
21:01It's working?
21:02Alright, good.
21:03Here we go.
21:05Here we go.
21:11Croissant.
21:16Croissant.

22:01It's like charades.
22:02Sorry.

22:05Croissant.
22:06Croissant.
22:06Dressage.
22:07Croissant.

22:13Eating a...
22:14Croissant.
22:15Baguette.
22:15What?
22:17Croissant.
22:18Croissant.
22:18Croissant.
22:19Yes!
22:25Oh, I set the stage.
22:29I set the stage for you there.
22:31Sorry, you had no idea.
22:33I had no idea.
22:33No clue.
22:34I had to pretend.
22:35Cigar.
22:36Mustache.
22:37Baguette.
22:38Sorry, sorry.
22:38No, that was perfect.
22:39That was great.
22:40I put a little beret on there.
22:42That was great charades.
22:45No, great whisper challenge.
22:47Okay, here we go.
22:48That was good.
22:48We're good, Pardsy.
22:50All right, here we go.
22:52Hold on.
22:52That's not enough.
22:53That went great.

23:26Marsupial?
23:26Yes!
23:28This is so hard.
23:30These are hard to say out loud.
23:34I haven't said the word marsupial in 20 years.
23:37All right, wow.
23:38Marsupial.
23:38Holy moly.
23:39Yeah.

23:44Good?
23:45Yeah.
23:46Hmm.
23:53Taco Tuesday.
23:54Duck or goose egg?
24:00No.
24:01Duck or goose egg?
24:06Taco Tuesday.
24:08Dr. Seuss said...
24:12No.
24:23Taco Tuesday.
24:27I don't want to say it.
24:29Don't say it.
24:30Don't say it.
24:31Don't say it.
24:32Don't say it.
24:32Don't say it.
24:34Don't say it.
24:35Ta...
24:38Taco.
24:39Taco.
24:39Suck your...
24:59Taco Tuesday.
25:01Taco Tuesday.
25:01There you go!
25:08Oh, my God.
25:09You're so fun, bud.
25:12All right, here we go. Last one.
25:13This is for all the marvels. We got this vibe.
25:17Okay. Yeah? Okay.
25:20-"Peter Piper picked a pack of pickled cookies."
25:22Bring it back, mom. Bring it back one more time, mom.
25:28-"Peter Piper picked a pack of pickled cookies."
25:31What are you talking about? What is...
25:33Are you having a... Are you having a stroke?
25:36Is this one word?
25:38-"Peter Piper." -"Pretzel." -"Piper." -"Pack meat."
25:43-"Picked." -"Pete." -"A peck."
25:46-"A baddie." Pete a baddie.
25:48-"A pickled peppers." -"Pickled peppers."
25:51Peter Piper picked a pack of pickled peppers.
25:54Yes!
25:57I'm exhausted.
26:01Natalie Portman, everybody!
26:02Her new film, Arco, opens in New York and L.A.
26:05this Friday and in theaters everywhere.
26:07January 30th.
26:08More tonight's show after the break.
26:10Stick around.
26:11January 30th.
26:12Your hands are clapped and if I ask,
26:14do you feel it, better answer back.
26:17Burgundy, Cadillac, cold robin' and designer with that...
26:27You know our next guest as Jonathan Byers in Stranger Things,
26:35which is streaming now on Netflix.
26:38He's also starring in season four of the show Industry,
26:41which airs new episodes Sundays at 9 p.m. on HBO and HBO Max.
26:45Please welcome Charlie Heaton.
27:07Charlie!
27:10Charlie Heaton, welcome to the show.
27:13Finally.
27:14Finally.
27:14We're meeting and talking.
27:15Five seasons.
27:16You were so great in the show,
27:18and I want to get into all things Stranger Things.
27:21You know, there's a trend on the Internet now.
27:242026 is 2016, right? It's the new 2016.
27:28And people are showing photos of what they were doing in 2016.
27:33And I was wondering, did you do that trend?
27:36I, unbeknownst to myself, might have done that trend.
27:40Yeah, maybe.
27:41You're not really on the social...
27:42So, I'm not. No, I'm not.
27:43I don't do social media, so I don't...
27:45Yeah, that's not really...
27:46I don't really know the trends.
27:47But what is the trend?
27:49Should we share?
27:50You just show basically what you did in 2016.
27:52And what's the point?
27:58That you existed in 2016.
28:00Okay, I did. I did.
28:01You did exist, yeah.
28:02But you brought us...
28:03You're doing the trend right...
28:04We're about to do it right now.
28:05You brought us a photo that you took in your dressing room in 2016,
28:09and then a photo that you took recently.
28:12Yeah, kind of.
28:13Yeah, so that is my first-ever day on set.
28:20Um, 2016, I think it would have been, like, October.
28:23And then this was my last-ever day on set.
28:28Which was...
28:29Ow!
28:29Yeah, yeah.
28:31What do you remember about this guy?
28:33Man, I remember being terrified of this haircut.
28:37I literally...
28:38You know, you do.
28:39You go in.
28:40They were excited.
28:41They go, that's my hair, by the way.
28:42So they, you know, they bowl cut me.
28:44You have a full bowl cut.
28:45Yeah, and I think it was like...
28:46I was almost, like, sending it to my dad.
28:48He's in the 80s.
28:48You know, he was in the 80s.
28:49I was like, Dad, check this out.
28:50You're gonna love this.
28:51Yeah, it's so 80s.
28:53And what do you remember about this guy?
28:54Ah, man.
28:56Uh...
28:56He was really sad.
28:58Was he?
28:59He was really sad, yeah.
29:01Was that your last day of filming?
29:02Yeah, that was the last day.
29:04So, I guess...
29:06At this point, I think spoilers are...
29:08Spoilers.
29:09Yeah, cheers.
29:10Spoilers are fine, I guess.
29:11This was the rooftop scene that we shot with Maya and Joe.
29:15It was so sweet and so good.
29:17I got to say, your scene with Natalia, with Nancy,
29:20the breakup scene...
29:21Yes, yes.
29:22...was fantastic.
29:23That was good.
29:24That was some great acting right there, bud.
29:26Yeah, thanks, man.
29:27That was, uh...
29:28Yeah, that was a gift of a scene, you know?
29:30We, uh...
29:31Our reading of that...
29:32We get to read about six months before, you know?
29:34We do the final table read of those episodes,
29:36and me and Natalia were sat across from each other,
29:39and, you know, we're reading this scene,
29:41and we read the first line that,
29:42I hate the clash.
29:43And everyone went still.
29:45We both looked up, and we were like, wow.
29:47And we go through the scene, and we get to the un-proposal.
29:49And it was just, yeah, the writing.
29:51It was really beautiful.
29:53The un-proposal, that's right.
29:54The un-proposal, yeah, yeah.
29:55Yeah, I saw online, a lot of people were confused.
29:57They didn't understand what this...
29:58There was an online discourse, and it kind of confused me,
30:03because I was like, well, why didn't people understand
30:05it's a breakup?
30:06And then I kind of remembered that, like,
30:08a lot of the audience are pretty young.
30:10Yes, they're very young, yeah, yeah.
30:11But it is one of the best breakup scenes, and yeah.
30:15Speaking of season five, by the way,
30:17Jonathan and Steve are really competing for Nancy's attention,
30:21and a lot of people freaked out that you were the one
30:24that saved Steve's life.
30:26Yeah.
30:27Yeah, come on.
30:28Yeah, come on.
30:29You saved the...
30:30Finally.
30:31We actually have a video of a group of fans' reaction
30:34in theaters when this happened.
30:35Take a look at this.
30:36Okay.
30:38No!
30:39No!
30:41Steve!
30:42Steve!
30:44What the ?
30:47Oh!
30:49Oh!
30:50Oh!
30:52Oh!
30:53Oh!
30:54That's right!
30:55Wow!
30:56That's how you do it!
30:57Wow!
30:57Come on!
30:58Oh, yeah!
31:00What do you think of that when you read that in the script?
31:02Oh!
31:02Um, it was just a sweet moment.
31:05I mean, me and Joe are so close, you know?
31:07We've been so close for so many years.
31:08So, to have that together, it was like, finally,
31:11Jonathan gets, like...
31:13Oh, for all the Team Steve...
31:14I like...
31:14I love Team Steve, by the way.
31:15I am a bit more Team Steve.
31:16But for all those people, it was like,
31:18finally, they can give Jonathan, like, credit for, like,
31:21one good thing.
31:22No!
31:23No!
31:23He's so good.
31:24He can take great pictures.
31:26He's really a talented photographer.
31:28Yes, great.
31:28I got to say, in the final battle against the Mind Flayer,
31:31you get to use a flamethrower.
31:33I do, yeah.
31:34And this is...
31:35Come on.
31:35This guy...
31:38What the...
31:39What was that like?
31:40Who came up with that idea?
31:42I like how cool it looks.
31:43Like, in that shot, it looks so...
31:45It looks really cool.
31:46Yes!
31:47So, essentially, I think there's always been this competition
31:51throughout every season.
31:52Obviously, Nancy gets amazing, right?
31:54She gets all the guns and all the weapons.
31:56She's badass, yeah.
31:56She's badass.
31:56She's amazing.
31:57But every season, where all the boys are trying to compete
32:00for a weapon.
32:01So, this season came around, and the question came up,
32:05like, what's gonna happen this season?
32:06And, uh, Russ was like, dude, man, you're gonna get a flamethrower.
32:10It's gonna be sweet, dude.
32:12That's how they talk.
32:13You know.
32:14You're doing the...
32:15Yeah.
32:15He was like, no, it's really sweet.
32:16So, all season, I'm excited about getting to the flamethrower moment,
32:20because it's gonna be really sweet.
32:22But in reality, there's...
32:24I mean, think about it.
32:25There's nothing to do.
32:26It's not...
32:27There's no flames.
32:28There's nothing coming out of this thing.
32:29So, you've gotta try and make it look cool.
32:32But it's...
32:32Like, how would you make a fl...
32:33Like, how do you do it, Jimmy?
32:37You better...
32:37You better go!
32:38Watch out, man!
32:39Yes.
32:40Yeah, yeah.
32:41Yeah!
32:44Yeah.
32:44Oh, no.
32:46What?
32:47Pretty big.
32:49It's totally awkward.
32:50Yeah, yeah, it's awkward.
32:50So, nothing's coming out of it.
32:51Nothing's coming out of it.
32:52It's got a little light on the end.
32:54And you just...
32:54You just have to scream.
32:56Yeah, just a little flashlight.
32:57And you're just like...
32:59It was great.
33:00Another thing that fans are loving, by the way, is Jonathan's run.
33:04The way he runs.
33:05Oh, God.
33:07Do you hear about this?
33:08Now, did you pick...
33:09How could I not hear about this?
33:10I don't know, but did you pick a certain run?
33:12I love...
33:13You know...
33:14Yes.
33:15Okay.
33:15Yeah, yeah.
33:16It's an acting run.
33:17Total character choice.
33:18Yeah, that's not how you run in real life.
33:20Not at all.
33:20I don't run like that.
33:21Never.
33:21No, no, no, no, no.
33:22Just making sure.
33:23Let's look at how your character runs.
33:28Hey, Hopper.
33:30Hopper.
33:31Dancing!
33:37Can you shake it?
33:39I...
33:41I...
33:43Look, I'll show you.
33:44I'll show you.
33:45Hey, how do I do it?
33:45Where's the camera?
33:46Camera 3, yes.
33:47So, this is how I run.
33:48I don't run like that.
33:49No, this is how you run.
33:51Yep.
33:52Yep.
33:58Do this way, Jimmy!
34:00This way!
34:08It's a great character choice by you.
34:11Yeah, no problem.
34:13Let's talk about your other project, by the way.
34:15Let's talk about industry.
34:16Congratulations.
34:17You were part of another show.
34:20Industry.
34:22Totally different vibe.
34:23Very different vibe.
34:24Yeah.
34:24Is it tough to go from Stranger Things to do a totally different...
34:28You've been with that family for years.
34:30Yeah.
34:31I would be lying if I said it wasn't...
34:33I wasn't...
34:33Yeah, it wasn't scary.
34:35Yeah.
34:36Because, you know, you've been on an established cast.
34:38It's a very, like you say, very different vibe.
34:40And then, yeah, joining industry, it's already established,
34:42and you've got to find out how you fit in.
34:45And for those who don't know, it's about, like,
34:47the financial world in Britain, and it's about, like,
34:50the worst...
34:51People trying to, like, one-up each other for power and wealth.
34:54It's, like, the worst of humanity.
34:55So I've been on a show that's about, like,
34:58people coming together, the best of humanity,
35:00how we can support each other.
35:02And then being like, well, what happens when people just want
35:04to tear each other apart?
35:05Yeah.
35:06That's what this is about.
35:07Yeah.
35:07Did you know about financing at all before you took this role?
35:10No.
35:11No.
35:11No.
35:12And the good thing is, you can watch it,
35:15and you don't need to know about finance.
35:17You don't.
35:17You'll watch it, and you won't understand it,
35:19but at the end, you kind of get it.
35:22Okay, good.
35:23I want to show a clip.
35:24Here's Charlie Heaton in industry.
35:26Take a look.
35:27Why are you so desperate to get this out of here,
35:28half-cooked?
35:29Because Paddy Radden Key for someone will get the scent,
35:32and a serious outlet with budget will beat us to it.
35:35Look, mate, all I'm saying is, the faster we publish,
35:38the safer my man will feel going on record.
35:40And you know, I have someone who may,
35:42they may play ball in corroborating this.
35:44You know he's too intimidated to do it electronically.
35:47Well, these guys, they're f***ing litigious.
35:49So it either goes out with the changes,
35:51or it doesn't go out at all.
35:53Sorry.
36:00You know, you have to get it, brin' you.
36:02You're still there.
36:03But if you want to have the budget for me to go to Accra,
36:05I guess I'll book my own f***ing ticket, yeah?

37:28Punchy, this flow took me out of the country.
37:31Incontinence, dumping on y'all like incontinence.
37:34My consonants, got the cats building us monuments.
37:38Accomplishments, I'm bothered by nobody's incompetence.
37:40It's common sense, but it all started with confidence.
37:43And still I was too humble, used to talk, shine, stumble.
37:46Now they got me on some bull with a whole ensemble.
37:50Crazy cake, making drive gems at a crazy pace.
37:53Want me to dump? I need at least an M through the ACH.
37:56Time to raise the stakes, the trauma made me great.

39:15No need to act boisterous.
39:17You Toys-R-Us, your team full of snakes.
