>> Stephen: HEY, EVERYBODY. LOOK AT THAT.
IT'S RACHEL WEISZ, THE STAR OF THE NEW LIMITED SERIES
"DEAD RINGERS." HAVE YOU EVER PLAYED TWINS
BEFORE? >> Rachel: I HAVEN'T.
>> Stephen: IS IT DIFFICULT? I HAVE TO IMAGINE THESE
CHARACTERS EXPRESS THEMSELVES IN VERY DIFFERENT WAYS.
>> Rachel: NO. ALEX BURGE, WHO WROTE THE
SCRIPT, SHE IS BRILLIANT, SHE JUST WROTE ON THE PAGE TO
RADICALLY DIFFERENT CHARACTERS WHO ARE PSYCHOLOGICAL DIFFERENT
IN EVERY WAY. IT'S LIKE IN STREETCAR AND NAMED
DESIRE, DID I GET CONFUSED BETWEEN BLANCHE AND STELLA?
>> Stephen: HOW DO YOU DO THE SCENES WITH YOURSELF?
WOULD YOU SHOOT A DAY AS BEVERLY AND A DAY AS ELLIOT?
>> Rachel: NO. IF WE WERE DOING THIS SCENE NOW,
WE WOULD JUST FINISH, I HAD BEEN ELLIOT THAT I WOULD RUN AND
CHANGING TO BEVERLY AND THEN SIT OVER THERE.
>> Stephen: DID SOMEONE PLAY THE OTHER PERSON.
>> Rachel: YES. I HAD AN ACTING PARTNER, KATIE
HAWTHORNE, WAGES, OUT OF DRAMA SCHOOL.
BRILLIANT ACTRESS. >> Stephen: SOME PEOPLE HAVE
FANTASIES WHEN THEY ARE YOUNGER THEY IDENTICAL TWIN TO THEY CAN
GET AWAY WITH SHENANIGANS AND OTHER STUFF LIKE THAT.
WOULD YOU WANT AN IDENTICAL TWIN?
>> Rachel: I MEAN, I THINK WHEN YOU'RE A KID, IT WOULD'VE
BEEN FUN. IF YOU ARE BAD AT MATH I DIDN'T
WANT TO TAKE A HISTORY EXAM, YOU COULD SEND HER SISTER, SWAP OUT.
THE TWINS IN THE SHOW, "DEAD RINGERS," THEY HAD BEEN
DOING THAT SINCE THEY WERE CHILDREN.
NOW THEY ARE GROWN-UPS. BEVERLY IS SHY SO ELLIOTT
PROCURES LOVERS FOR HER. ELLIOTT GOES AND GETS A LOVER
FOR HER AND THEN THEY SWAP. THEY HAVE BEEN DECEIVING PEOPLE
A LOT. NOT JUST IN HISTORY CLASSES
KIDS, IT'S GOTTEN PRETTY INTENSE AS GROWN-UPS.
>> Stephen: WOW. >> Rachel: YEAH.
[LAUGHS] >> Stephen: WE HAVE A CLIP
HERE. WHAT ARE WE ABOUT TO SEE?
>> Rachel: WE ARE ABOUT TO SEE THE TWINS, ELLIOTT AND BEVERLY,
GOING UPSTATE NEW YORK TO MEET SOME BILLIONAIRES.
IT'S AN EPISODE TWO. THEY WANT $15 MILLION FOR THIS
BIRTHING CENTER AND LAB IN THIS FAMILY THAT THEY ARE GOING TO
SEE, IT'S KIND OF A SUCCESSION TYPE EPISODE.
MONSTROUSLY RICH PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO MORAL FIBER OR BACKBONE BUT
HAVE THE MOST DELICIOUS DIALOGUE AND YOU CAN TAKE YOUR EYES OFF
THEM. THEY'RE GOING UPSTATE.
BEVERLY IS BEING A NERD AND TRYING TO STUDY AND ELLIOTT IS
GONE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU NERD?
THAT'S BASICALLY THE CLIP. >> WHAT IS THIS?
>> HELLO? >> WHAT ARE YOU DOING.
>> TRYING TO GET HIS MONEY. >> THESE ARE PIE CHARTS AND BAR
GRAPHS. >> HELLO?
>> HOW ARE YOU PLANNING ON USING THIS, YOU NERD?
>> OH, MY GOSH, YOU STILL JUST THAT 14-YEAR-OLD WANKING INTO
ALGEBRA HOMEWORK. IT >> THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
>> BASICALLY IT DID. ELLIOTT!
[APPLAUSE] >> Stephen: EVERYBODY KNOWS
THAT YOU'RE AN INCREDIBLY GIFTED ACTRESS, OSCAR-WINNER AND YOUR
PERFORMANCE IN THE CONSTANT GARDENER IS ONE OF THE GREATEST
THINGS I'VE EVER SEEN BUT YOU ARE SO FUNNY, REALLY FUNNY
ACTRESS. BESIDES PEOPLE KNOW YOU FROM
"THE MUMMY" MOVIES. DO YOU HAVE SOMEONE YOU ADMIRE,
FAVORITE COMEDIAN? >> Rachel: SOMEONE THAT I
WOULD SAY THAT I'M NOT VERY LIKE THAT WHO I VERY MUCH ADMIRE HIS
WILL FERRELL. >> Stephen: SURE.
I WOULD NOT MIX YOU UP. >> Rachel: VERY DIFFERENT
SKILL SETS. YEAH, I LOVE OLD SCHOOL.
FRANK THE TANK. >> Stephen: SURE, EXACTLY.
>> Rachel: RUNNING NAKED DOWN THE STREET AND HIS WIFE.
