LIKE WHEN, NOW THAT YOUR KIDS ARE FLOWN THE NEST, THEY HAVE
MOVED OUT.
HOW DO YOU, HOW DO YOU KEEP UP WITH EVERYTHING THAT HATCHES IN
THEIR LIFE.
DO YOU HAVE A SECRET TIKTOK ACCOUNT THAT YOU SECRETLY

>> James: THAT IS A GREAT PIECE OF PARCHLTING ADVICE.
I'M ALL IN, I REALLY AM.
I NEVER INTO KNEW THIS, WHEN YOU WERE, I'M NOT SURE WHAT AGE, I
GUESS A LITTLE YOUNGER THAN YOUR KIDS ARE NOW, YOU WERE LIVING IN
GERMANY AND YOU GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL IN GERMANY.
WHAT WAS THAT EXPERIENCE LIKE?
>> IT WAS GREAT.
I MEAN YOU KNOW, IT WAS-- EUROPE WAS, SO EXCITED ING TO BE
THERE, WE HAD SO MUCH FREEDOM AND I WAS 16 YEARS OLD.
THERE WERE-- ON EVERY CORNER SO EVERYONE WAS OUT AND DRINKS AND
ON THE TRAINS SO IT WAS VERY, VERY LOOSE.
VERY LOOSE.
>> James: I LOE THE WORD LOOSE IN THAT.
>> DO YOU?
>> James: THE WORDS WHEN YOU SAY WE ARE WERE OUT DRINKING TRK
WAS VERY LOOSE.
IT COVERS A MULT TEUD OF THINGS, DOESN'T IT?
I MEAN.
>> WELL, THERE WAS NO SUPERVISION WHEN I THIS I ABOUT
IT.
GETTING ON A TRAIN AND GO TO ANOTHER CITY, YOU KNOW T WOULD
TAKE YOU 45 MINUTES TO GO SOMEWHERE AND WE HAD A LOT OF
FREEDOM, YEAH.
>> James: THE THOUGHT OF MY CHILDREN TRAVELING AROUND EUROPE
ON THEIR OWN WITHOUT PHONES AND STUFF.
>> WITHOUT PHONES, YEAH, WE DIDN'T HAVE A PHONE.
I TOOK A TRAIN TRIP WHEN I GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL WITH
TWO GIRLFRIENDS AND WE WOULDN'T EVEN CALL BECAUSE THERE WASN'T,
YOU KNOW, WE COULDN'T AFFORD, LONG-DISTANCE CALL.
YOU JUST SENT A POSTCARD TO YOUR PARENTS, LIKE I'M IN ROME.
AND THEY WOULDN'T GET THE CARD UNTIL AFTER YOU CAME BACK SO WHY
WE BROTHER-- BOTHERED, I DON'T KNOW.
>> James: LAST YEAR "THE NEW YORK TIMES" RELEASED A LIST OF
THE 25 GREATEST ACTORS OF THE 21S CENTURY.
YOU CAME IN AT NUMBER 11, WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY GREAT?
(APPLAUSE) WHEN YOU SEE OR YOU READ OR YOU
HEAR ABOUT STUFF LIKE THIS, HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THINGS LIKE
THAT?
>> I MEAN, MY GOD, I MEAN WE ALL-- EVERYBODY LOVES A
COMPLIMENT, RIGHT.
I MEAN SO OF COURSE, I WAS-- I WAS THRILLED.
BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, IT'S NOT-- IT'S NOT POSSIBLE.
IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO BE RANKED LIKE THAT AND IT IS COMPLETELY
SUBJECTIVE.
SO IT IS NOT LIKE IT IS THE BEST ACTOR T IS JUST PEOPLE THAT MADE
THE LIST, IT IS THEIR FAVORITE, BUT OF COURSE, I WAS, YOU KNOW,
MADE ME HAPPY.
>> James: YEAH, I THINK ARE YOU BEING VERY, VERY HUMBLE.
IF IT WAS ME I WOULD CHANGE MY NAME TO 11.
>> LET ME GET A SHIRT THAT SAYS ELEVEN ON IT.
>> James: YOU HAVE SEEN STRANGER THINGS, WHAT ABOUT THAT
CHARACTER, 11, ALSO DID YOU SEE THIS, TALKING ABOUT 11.
NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR BRILLIANT NEW SHOW LEESEE'S
STORY, TELL PEOPLE WHAT IT IS ABOUT AND WHO YOU PLAY.
>> IT IS BASED ON THE BOOK BY STEPHEN KING, HE WROTE ALL OF
THE EPISODES.
AND IT IS ABOUT A WOMAN WHO WAS RECENTLY WIDOWED WHO WAS MARRIED
TO A FAMOUS AUTHOR.
AND SHE IS DEALING WITH FAMILY ISSUES, HER SISTERS ARE PLAYED
BY JOAN ALLEN AND JENNIFER JASONLY.
THERE IS A STALKER AND IT ST AFTER HER HUSBAND'S WORK AND
ALSO HER HUSBAND SEEMS TO BE VERY PRESENT AND PULLING HER
INTO A SUPERNATURAL PLACE.
>> James: IT IS AN AMAZING SHOW.
AND YOUR PERFORMANCE, THE REVIEWS OF YOUR POMPLEANCE ARE
ASTONISHING.
AND STEPHEN KING AS YOU SAY WROTE EVERY SINGLE EPISODE.
WHAT WAS IT LIKE WORKING SO CLOSELY WITH SUCH A MASTER STORY
TELLER?
>> HE WAS INCREDIBLE.
HE IS SO, SO GENEROUS.
SO KIND AND COLLABORATIVE AND REALLY LIKED THE CREATIVE
PROCESS.
HE WAS THERE ALL THE TIME AND HE ALWAYS WANTED TO COME OVER AND
TALK TO YOU ABOUT WHAT YOU WERE DOING AND HE TEXTED YOU.
THERE WAS ACTUALLY ONE TIME THAT I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF SOMETHING
REALLY EMOTIONAL.
AND STARTING TO COME OVER.
I WAS LIKE WAIT, WAIT, WAIT BECAUSE HE WANTED TO SAY HOW
MUCH HE LIKED IT.
HE IS JUST A TREMENDOUS PERSON.
I'M SO SUCH A MASTERFUL STORY TELLER.
THERE ARE FOUR TIME LINES IN THIS.
THERE IS PRESENT DAY, THE RECENT PAST, WHEN THEY FIRST GOT
MARRIED AND WHEN THEY ARE KIDS.
AND HE MANAGES TO WEAVE ALL OF THE STORY TOGETHER IT IS REALLY
FASCINATING.
>> IT REALLY IS.
