  2. My Precious Andy Serkis

    5D AGO

    My Precious Andy Serkis

    Andy Serkis is one of the true pioneers of motion capture acting, and is responsible for bringing some of the biggest characters in movie history to life including Gollum in The Lord of the Rings, Caesar in Planet of the Apes, King Kong, and Supreme Leader Snoke in the Star Wars sequel trilogy! Andy explains how he created Gollum’s iconic voice and physicality, why Peter Jackson put him in the scenes with Elijah Wood and Sean Astin instead of using a tennis ball, and how motion capture technology evolved throughout the LOTR trilogy. He talks about studying real apes in Rwanda for Planet of the Apes, wearing weighted suits while playing King Kong, and why Caesar from Planet Of The Apes became one of the most emotional characters he’s ever portrayed. Andy also shares stories from inside the secretive Star Wars universe, reveals his reaction to Snoke’s shocking death scene, and explains why performance capture acting is still misunderstood 25 years later. Plus, Andy talks about directing the new animated adaptation of Animal Farm, returning to Middle Earth for the upcoming Gollum movie, and what it means to finally direct his own The Lord of the Rings film!

    Andy Serkis, Fiona Hill, Special Appearance by Sara Bareilles & Josh Groban

    Amid reports of ill-equipped troops quitting the fight, the Russian military continues to target civilians in Ukraine while the U.S. and other countries move to seize superyachts belonging to Putin’s oligarch cronies. Next, Sara Bareilles & Josh Groban help celebrate a milestone in frozen dairy history, as Stephen Colbert’s signature flavor of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream "Americone Dream" celebrates 15 delicious years of fudge-covered waffle cone and caramel swirl goodness. Then, one of Stephen’s favorite actors, Andy Serkis, returns to The Late Show with a preview of his new film, “The Batman,” where he plays Alfred alongside Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne. And Fiona Hill advised three American presidents on Russian policy and has spent time in close proximity to Vladimir Putin, so she is uniquely qualified to talk about the man’s strengths, his weak spots, and the things we misunderstand about him.

Then, in the podbooth, Chris is joined by Helen O'Hara, James Dyer (for a while at least), and Ben Travis as they discuss the week's movie news, including the tragic events on the set of the Western, Rust, and the announcement of Dune Part Two. They also review Last Night In Soho, Rebecca Hall's Passing, Army Of Thieves, and Scott Cooper's horror film, Antlers. And, if that wasn't enough, we also bring you Chris' spoilerific interview with Andy Serkis, director of Venom: Let There Be Carnage.
