  • Thanks for being here.

  • Thanks for having me.

  • You look very beautiful.

  • Why, thank you.

  • As do I.

  • Okay, good.

  • Um, Mr. Q, to say you're pretty, too.

  • You look fantastic, okay?

  • Thank you, yeah, there we go.

  • Oh, my God.

  • Yeah, isn't that...

  • I'm so pretty.

  • Now, uh...

  • Can I touch you?

  • Yeah, yes, you may.

  • No, lay your hands off me.

  • First of all, thanks for being here.

  • Nice to have you on the show.

  • We were sitting around today, the movie's not out yet, so we were watching clips from the film, of most amazing action sequences in this movie.

  • Without a doubt.

  • Yeah, and there's this one where this guy is shooting at Jet Li.

  • I think people have seen this because it's in the commercials.

  • He's like shooting him with a machine gun, and the only thing around is a pool table, and he runs at it, kicks a ball out of the pocket of the pool table, and then kicks the pool ball in midair, and hits a guy off the head.

  • I have tried this in gunfights.

  • It is much harder than it sounds.

  • It just doesn't work.

  • It's stuff like that, I like it when they get that inventive, like, we'll, you know, because everything's been done at this point, that they're like, no, a pool table will be in the room, and he'll kick a ball, and then do that, and it was, but it works, it's great.

  • He's amazing.

  • He's unbelievable.

  • Jet Li is unbelievable.

  • Yeah.

  • Yeah.

  • Yeah.

  • And you're mentioning things that I haven't seen yet.

  • Right, right.

  • You're talking about stuff that I wasn't in, so I am gonna have the most fun when I go to see it.

  • Now, I didn't, are you fighting in this movie?

  • Are you in there with Jet Li, karate chopping people, kicking and- I am escaping.

  • Oh, okay.

  • I am getting out of the way.

  • Yeah.

  • I am, oh my God, I'm gonna die.

  • Is that what they taught you in acting school, from scared?

  • Yeah.

  • Gung, gung, gung, gung, gung, gung, gung, gung, gung.

  • It's like, you learned that from a Warner Brothers cartoon.

  • You know what I did.

  • But, but- All my acting is- But is that, I mean, so you don't have to actually get in there, cause I, what he's doing looks impossible.

  • I think I would audition for the part where I'm like running away, or no, please.

  • That's the part.

  • Is that, so that's mostly what you're doing, but you have to, do you get hit at all in the movie?

  • I do, I take, I take quite a bit, but none of it, the bruised choking neck, the- Right.

  • Taking punches, none of it compares to having to run in platform, thigh boots, on cobblestone in Paris.

  • I know, this is true.

  • Trust, I, we know.

  • You know, you know.

  • Yes.

  • Many is the time I've been there.

  • What's funny is that you play, you play a prostitute in the movie, and so you have to, you know, dress a certain way.

  • And I heard that you actually brought some of your own clothes.

  • Well, no, I mean, not from my own wardrobe.

  • All right.

  • All right, settle down.

  • I, I actually decided, okay, I'm going to Paris to play hooker, but I must make a stop in Hollywood.

  • Right.

  • So I went and got these array of shoes to choose from, not knowing anything about what I was going to have to do, but I knew there I will, I am a hooker, there will be shoes.

  • Right.

  • Cause the original title of the movie was not the barefoot hooker.

  • Yeah.

  • No, it was not.

  • The barefoot hooker in the park.

  • Yeah.

  • Do you, you know, what's, what's funny, cause it would be bad if they said, you're playing a hooker in this movie, and, and, and you're like, what should I wear?

  • What you're wearing's fine.

  • You know, that would, that would be bad.

  • It's good that you went out and bought these things.

  • Now, have you ever dressed up this way before, you know, for a role or something, and then gone out?

  • Cause I know in Jackie Brown, you were wearing really short shorts, and you were, you were dressed in this provocative way.

  • Have you ever been tempted?

  • And I'm asking for a reason, cause once I was in like a failed TV pilot, which makes a lot of sense, but, and I had to play, I was, I had a minor part, and I played a policeman, and I was wearing the policeman's outfit, and I couldn't help it.

  • I walked off the lot and started walking around and telling people like, move it along, move it along, you know.

  • I could, I just had to.

  • Did you ever want to walk off the lot and like walk around in real life in these kinds of clothes?

  • Well, you forget.

  • You know, you've been doing it for how many months?

  • And you feel normal.

  • How scary is that?

  • And then I- So you were just wearing these clothes and you didn't, you, this is for Jackie Brown, right?

  • Did you- No, Jackie Brown, well, this, I didn't know what I was going to do, and suddenly I was doing it.

  • Cause I arrived and then wham, we were going, we went, we moved so fast.

  • Right.

  • So I didn't really have any time to get used to what I was going to have to live in for the next three months and be ogled in.

  • But in Jackie Brown, I had a little time.

  • I thought, okay, I'm not going to get used to this easily.

  • So I think maybe what I'll do is go dive in and go to a pool hall in hot pants and platform shoes just to get over it.

  • And just to sort of research what it feels like.

  • So you just went in that element.

  • Yeah.

  • Did you get, did people recognize you?

  • I mean, did they say- No, I, well, I mean, I don't know.

  • There was a lot of looking or like, That tends to happen with hot pants.

  • Anyway, yeah.

  • Well, how about this?

  • One time someone said, hey, I know you, you're on that show.

  • And I'm thinking, yeah.

  • And he said, Helen Hunt.

  • Well, I mean, I could, I could think about, I was like, what is Helen wearing?

  • Yeah.

  • And also, why is Helen Hunt hanging out in this pool hall?

  • I know.

  • And it's- Helen Hunt, she's in here all the time.

  • It's like, was she just here?

  • Because I know Helen.

  • Have you been mistaken for other actresses ever?

  • Well, actually, it's just, it's Helen who has told me that she's been, she said, you're Birgit Fonda, one time.

  • And then, Yeah.

  • She got a love.

  • Yeah.

  • Birgit, right?

  • Like, I like that.

  • And then also, one time I was out with a friend, we'd gone into a store.

  • I said, I'll meet you in.

  • She goes in, she's browsing, and the salesperson comes up to her and goes, oh my God, Jodie Foster just walked in.

  • My friend goes, where?

  • And looks, and it was me.

  • So, that's basically.

  • You should get her credit cards, too.

  • You should be like, I'm Jodie Foster.

  • I'll pay for that later.

  • You know?

  • It's not Jodie.

  • Give me $600,000.

  • I get mistaken for Fabio every now and then.

  • You do?

  • Oh my God.

  • It's the hair.

  • Very pronounced man boobs.

  • It's the only reason.

  • It's true.

  • Whenever I take off, I just, I work out, and they're just like, there.

  • I can set little Hummel figurines on the top.

  • Which I do for my own.

  • He's so weird.

  • I'm a weird man.

  • I know.

  • I know.

  • You saying he's so weird means I'm never coming back.

  • That's showbiz code.

  • It means like next time I'm coming back with the Hummels.

  • Ding, ding, ding.

  • I like you.

  • Kiss of the Dragon opens next Friday, and it looks like a, it looks, I mean, this is one of those movies where you see a couple of clips and sometimes you see the clips and you think, I don't know.

  • This movie, you think, I gotta go see this movie.

  • Well, definitely it's the rollercoaster fun thing.

  • And also what I've heard is that the clips are nothing compared to some of Jet's stuff.

  • Right.

  • So, which is always good.

  • Cause I hate it when you, the clips are the best part.

  • Well, we've had people come here and show like three clips from their movie.

  • And you pretty much see the whole movie.

  • It's like, there's a clip where, you know, whatever he gets drafted into the mob.

  • And then the clip where he breaks free.

  • And then the clip where he marries the dog at the end.

  • And you're like, okay, now I know what happens in this movie.

  • Look for that movie soon.

  • That sounds so good.

  • Yeah.

  • I like the dog part.

  • All right.

  • Are they casting?

  • Kiss of the Dragon opens next Friday.
