-How is -- Your wife, Sarah Jessica Parker, we love.
-Yeah. -Is she doing well?
-Yeah.
-Have you guys seen the Super Bowl commercial?
-Yeah? -It's fantastic.
-Yeah, I think it came out today.
I mean, like before they show it, you get to see it.
-Oh, yeah. -Yeah, and it's great.
It's really clever. A good one.
-Oh, it's a great one.
Super fun to see her as Carrie. I thought that was super fun.
-Yeah, she's Carrie again. And Jeff Bridges.
-I saw a photo of you and a friend
that went viral pretty recently. -Yeah.
-Do you know about this photo that I'm talk--
-I think so. Yeah. I took a picture with a friend of mine.
-You were just walking.
-We were walking in Long Island, you know, in Montauk, I think.
And these people wanted a picture,
and they told my friend, "Get out of the way."
You know?
"We just want Matthew with the kid."
And they got the kid, and I took a picture.
When I saw the picture, my friend is still in it.
[ Laughter ]
-I wanted to show who your friend is.
-Yeah. -That's Jerry Seinfeld.
[ Cheers and applause ]
[ Laughs ] That's Jerry Seinfeld.
-Yeah. -"Hey, get out of the way!"
-Yeah. "Move over." -"Get out of the way!
I just want Matthew! Get -- Who is that?!"
-Yeah, and then another friend said, "That's Jerry Seinfeld,"
and they're like, "Matthew, get out of there!"
-[ Laughs ] Just do a picture just with Jerry.
-"Yeah, we just want Jerry." -I love that he did that.
He's like, "Yeah, I'll just get out of the way."
Why even explain who he is or what he's doing.
-He doesn't need to. He's Jerry Seinfeld.
-That's true. -Yeah.
Are you excited you're going to London?
-Yes, I am. -This is a big deal.
-I know. I know. I'm going to be doing a play.
For those of you who don't know, I'm doing a play in London.
-Yeah. -Yeah.
[ Cheers and applause ]
This is a Kenneth Lonergan play?
-Yes. Yes, it is. It's called "Starry Messenger."
-"Starry Messenger." -Yeah. In the spring.
-Yeah. Have you ever acted in London before?
-No, I have not. -Wow.
Are you excited about it?
-I want to -- Can I confer with counsel?
-Yeah.
You keep leaning in.
-Yes, I have, actually. -Okay. You have --
-I don't -- I have no recollection.
-You have no recollection. Okay.
-I learned something there. Yeah.
-Oh, my gosh. But that will be a big deal.
It's kind of fun to see you in London.
-Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.
I hope I don't come back talking weird.
Half English, half American. -Oh, I hope you do.
-"Hello, Jimmy." Or whatever. I don't know what that is.
-That's wasn't that --
-That wasn't a great impression right there.
-That wasn't that much different than your actual voice.
-No, it wasn't. -"Hello, Jimmy."
-Is that how I talk?
-Yeah. No, that's how you just did that.
Yeah. The British Matthew Broderick.
Let's talk about your movie "To Dust."
What a unique, fascinating movie this was.
Sorry, dude. -That's okay.
-I was just talking to the audience.
Yeah, if you thought someone was gonna surpri--
-I thought somebody was coming for us.
-No, I'm sorry, dude. I didn't mean to startle you.
-Well, you never know.
There's no wall behind me, so I'm aware.
-Yeah, no, yeah, you could be attacked from all angles.
-A little person from the set. -No one -- No one is -- Yeah.
-A little, teenie wooden man. -No, I'm surprising you.
No wooden man. Nothing. -No?
-Now you're freaking me out. -I'm sorry.
-Now I feel like something might happen.
-Yeah. -And nothing's gonna happen.
We're totally safe. -Okay.
I'll take your word for that.
-Will you hold me? -Sure.
-I'm just scared right now. -Me too.
-Let's talk about the movie. "To Dust" is the film.
-"To Dust." Yes. -Can you explain it?
How do we explain it?
-Yeah, it's hard to explain. It's -- It's a story.
It's a rabbi who -- His wife dies.
It sounds very grim, but it's not grim.
-Yeah.
-And he's very upset about it and miserable about it
and concerned about what's happening to her body, actually.
So he finds a science teacher
to try to help him understand the physical world,
'cause he only sees things spiritually.
-Yeah.
-How are you doing with that story?
But it's really good.
And it's funny somehow, even though it's about that.
-I know. No, it is. Yeah.
-And it was -- You know, I really like the movie.
-Yeah. -It's really good.
I'm not kidding. I know it seems like I'm kidding.
-No, no, no. I know you.
You're great in it, but it's good.
And it actually is funny. -It is funny. Yeah.
-"To Dust" means... -To go back to the earth.
You know, he's very worried because there's things --
you know, about her body returning to nature.
He can't get his head around that, you know?
Where is she now? He has nightmares about it.
And he goes to a scientist to try to figure it out.
-It's interesting. It's almost like we're really engaged.
We're really locking eyes.
-Really? Too much? -Yeah. A little bit.
-Uncomfortable? -No, I'm actually kind of
psyched because it feels like I'm acting with you or something.
You're a great actor.
-Yeah. It's like an acting exercise type thing.
-Yeah, but you're making a lot of eye contact with me.
It's interesting. It's good. It's like -- We've done --
I've done interviews, but never really locked eyes.
It almost feels like you're daring me to look away.
-I just looked away. -I know. You did real quickly.
-I broke it.
-No, you tried to break it, but no one saw that,
so it still counts as what we're doing.
-Which eye are you looking at?
-This is interesting. I have a power.
I can look at both eyes at once. -That's amazing.
-No, I'm looking at your right eye.
-I'm looking at your left eye. -Wow.
-Michael Caine says
you should look at the eye closest to cam--
Closest to camera.
-[ As Michael Caine ] Michael Caine talks like that.
Do a stuffed nose. Yeah.
What he does is he says, "You look at the left eye.
You look at the eye closest -- Don't blink."
You look at the right eye... [ Shouting gibberish ]
That's what he says. "Bloody doors off." Yeah.
[ Normal voice ] What do we have to look at in the clip?
-Um...
[ Laughter ]
I just swooned.
-You did. Oh, fantastic. -Wow.
-It's a first. -I need a coffee.
-Yeah, so, what are we about to see in this clip?
-The clip is a scene -- I don't know if it's a --
-You're acting with a pig. -There's a pig in the movie.
-Is it hard to act with a pig? -No.
The pig was -- You know, they look like they're smiling.
Even when they're not smiling, they have a kind of like --
like a crazy like -- little like --
Like, the little corners of the mouth are, you know...
They look like --
I was like, "Well, you're very happy to be here."
And I don't think he was particularly happy,
but he was okay.
He just wanted his food and to get back to the pen.
-Yeah. That's really all they want.
I want to show everyone a clip.
Here's Matthew Broderick in "To Dust."
Take a look at this.
-I can't. -I can't -- What?
-I stole the pig. It's only fair if you kill it.
-What? What?
-We have to kill the pig. -I am not hearing this.
No, no, no. Here's what's going to happen.
You and me, we're going to pick up this pig,
and we're gonna carry it into your wagon,
and you are going to take it home,
and then we're never gonna talk about this
or about anything ever again, okay?
Killing a pig is not going to bring back your wife, Shmuel.

-Yeah. Matthew Broderick, everybody!
