EXTRAORDINARY.
YOUR WIG IS VERY TERRIFIC.
>> THANK YOU.
>> James: TALK TO ME ABOUT THE INSPIRATION FOR THIS.
>> WELL, IT IS INSPIRED BY LEAH'S ACTUAL HAIRCUT, ONE OF
MANY BUT WE CHOSE THAT ONE BECAUSE IT IS SO FLATTERING.
AND I THINK YOU KNOW I HAVE NEVER HAD HAIR EVER LIKE THAT,
EVER.
AND SO IT WAS GREAT.
IT MADE IT REALLY EASY TO GET IN CHARACTER.
>> James: WHAT IS GOOD IS YOU CAN LEAVE THE SET AND GO
STRAIGHT AND PLAY LIKE THE EMCEE IN CABARET.
>> ODDLY ENOUGH IT LOOKS LIKE MY HAIR IN THE DE PARTED.
>> James: YES, IT DOES.
MARK, THIS IS-- I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS, THE 25th ANNIVERSARY
OF BOOGIE NIGHTS, WHICH IS A FILM, IS THIS RIGHT?
IS THIS RIGHT, THERE WAS ANOTHER HUGE MOVIE IN 1997 THAT YOU KIND
OF CAME CLOSE TO BEING IN, WHAT WAS IT?
>> TITANIC.
BUT I-- BUT I WAS NOT OFFERED THE PART.
>> James: NO.
>> AND BASICALLY EVERY ACTOR IN OUR AGE GROUP WAS MEETING JIM
CAMERON AND OFFERED LEO THE PART AT ONE POINT.
I WHEN I WENT AND MET JAMES CAMERON HE HAD HIS HUMVEE
OUTSIDE AND I HAD NEVER SEEN ONE SO INSTEAD OF TALKING ME INTO
GETTING THE PART I TALKED HIM INTO LETTING ME DRIVE THE CAR,
SO I GOT A RIDE AND LEO WAS NICE ENOUGH TO TELL ME ABOUT MY
PERFORMANCE IN-- AND HELP IMMEDIATE GET THE PART.
>> James: SO SEE I DON'T THINK, I WOULD NEVER BELIEVE
THAT MARK, I THINK MARK WAHLBERG PLAYING THAT PART IN TITANIC
WOULD ABSOLUTELY BEING THE MAN THAT HE IS GO SHIFT UP THERE IS
ROOM FOR BOTH OF US ON THE SHORE, DICAPRIO I DON'T THINK
DOES, JACK, OH, HE'S GONE, MARK WAHLBERG GOES HANG ON A MINUTE,
HANG ON.
>> SLIDE OVER.
>> James: SLIDE OVER, WE CAN BOTH GET ON THIS DOOR.
THAT, IT WOULD ALL, I WOULD BE INVESTED IN IT AND AS SOON AS WE
GOT TO THAT MOMENT, I WOULD LOOK LIKE NO WAY.
>> WOULD YOU HAVE FOUND ANOTHER DOOR.
>> James: NO, HE WOULDN'T EVEN NEED TO.
THERE WAS ROOM ON THAT DOOR.
>> THERE WAS ROOM ON THAT DOOR.
>> James: YOU JUST GO KATE, BUDGE UP, PUSH OVER, LET ME ON
THE DOOR AND I THINK JAMES CAMERON KNEW THAT, AND THAT IS
WHY HE DIDN'T DO IT.
REGGIE, DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION FOR OUR GUESTS THIS EVENING.

GUESTS FROM NOW ON.
IT WILL JUST BE THE STANDARD QUESTION SO TOFNLT WE'LL SET THE
