- This looks very Elle Woods.
- It's so Elle Woods.
- I might need to borrow it if we make "Legally Blonde 3."
- I'll give you, which I, I mean-
- You gotta talk about it.
- You know what, I'm just skipping to behind the scenes.
We're on the subject. Let's do it.
(audience applauds and cheers)
Ladies and gentlemen, we're gonna do this,
"Behind the Scenes."
(audience applauds) (logo whooshes)
- Thank you so much.
All right, rom-com royalty, "Four Christmases."
This is a fly on the wall, A tidbit moment,
(audience cheers) first thing
that comes to mind, juicy detail,
something we would never know otherwise, go.
- Okay, first of all, almost every scene is improvised.
Vince Vaughn is one of the funniest people
I've ever met in my entire life.
Literally trying to hold my stomach.
There's a scene where I'm holding a baby
and it spits up on me.
And y'all, if you watch it again,
you just have see how fast they have to cut away from me,
because I was dying laughing. (audience laughing)
It's a fake baby with like a tube inside of it,
and it's shooting pancake batter at me.
(Drew laughing)
- And I was like, oh my God,
this is the funniest thing ever. (laughing)
- I love that.
- [Reese] That's good.
- Okay, "Legally Blonde," of which I'm dressed in honor of,
- Yes. (audience cheers)
- My ode to the great, do you see,
I mean, look at me. - You could.
- I'm an in honor of Elle Woods Day.
- It's amazing.
I wanna tell you something about the courtroom scene,
was inspired by "My Cousin Vinny."
(audience applauds and cheers)
Have you ever seen "My Cousin Vinny?"
Okay, Marisa Tomei in that movie,
she won an Oscar for it-
- [Drew] That's right.
- She came in at the very end and testified
with this very technical jargon
about a car, or a carburetor.
And I was like, I said to the writers,
"I wanna have a moment like that,
where I say something very specific about
only Elle Woods would know it, and it's about a perm.
- [Drew] Oh, I remember.
- And it was inspired by Marisa Tomei.
- [Drew] That you would never (audience applauds)
get in the shower after a perm.
- Yes.
- "Sweet Home Alabama."
(audience cheers and applauds)
- This people flipped out.
- I remember that scene that we shot in the rain-
- [Drew] Uh-huh.
- And I'm in the wedding dress.
- [Drew] Uh-huh.
- I run away from my wedding,
and I run to see Josh Lucas on the beach,
and it was pouring down rain,
but I remember thinking,
"This is such a crazy, amazing moment,
I'm gonna remember this forever."
And I still have the wedding dress
- [Drew] (squeals) You do?
- I do, yeah.
- Okay, your Academy Award-winning performance,
"Walk the Line."
- [Reese] Aw.
(audience cheers and applauds)
(cursor trills and beeps) I worked so hard on this show,
and Joaquin just could not have been more magical.
He became Johnny Cash right in front of us.
And it was really magical, and it was meaningful.
I felt, like, the spirit of June Carter
the whole time, I felt Johnny was watching us,
I felt like, it's also, I'm from Nashville, Tennessee,
so country music has been part of my upbringing.
So it was really a love letter to country music,
and where I came from.
- Okay, "The Morning Show." (audience cheers and applauds)
- "The Morning Show."
(audience cheering)
I love "The Morning Show."
Look at our faces. (laughing)
We're both like, "What?"
Just getting every day to work with her,
and get to do these fun scenes.
We were just talking about it the other day.
I just wrapped, on Saturday, we wrapped
season three. - [Drew] Season three?
- Yes.
- When is it coming out? I need it.
- It's definitely coming out this year.
- [Drew] This year?
- This year.
- All right. "Big Little Lies."
(audience applauds and cheers)
Season two, When you bring in Meryl Streep-
- [Reese] Yes!
- Talk about bringing that woman
into this room with you guys. - [Reese] Yes!
- That was another gift.
She called and said, "I think I wanna be on the show."
And we're like... (body thuds)
(audience laughing)
- So where are you when that call comes in?
(audience applauding)
Meryl Streep on line one.
- Meryl Streep. (laughing)
She called Nicole Kidman, 'cause they're very close,
they had done a lot of shows together.
- [Drew] Of course they are.
- And so Nicole calls me,
she goes, (audience laughing)
I'm gonna do my bad Australian.
She's like, "Reese, Meryl called,
and she wants to be in the "Big Little Lies 2."
And I was like, "What are you talking about?"
(audience laughing) Yes!
- Okay, really quickly, "Friends."
I love you as Rachel's sister. (audience applauds)
- And it's where "The Morning Show" connection started.
(audience applauding and cheering)
- Honestly, she's such an icon.
They were all icons-
- What's the "Friends" set like?
- It's incredible.
Central Perk was amazing.
(audience laughing)
I got to sit on the couch at Central Perk.
- You-
Can I tell you my favorite line from "Friends"
- [Drew] Yes! - That I actually got to say,
the writers were so brilliant.
So she says, "Look, you can have any guy you want,
but you can't have Ross."
And I go, "Can't have? Can't have?
The only thing I can't have is dairy."
(audience laughing and applauding)
Come on, that's so good! It's so good!
