-I love having you here.
Congrats on the season finale of "This Is Us."
-Thank you. You can finally stop hiding whatever spoilers --
I don't even know what you can even say
'cause every time a question gets answered,
a new one flips around.
You're like, "Wait. What?" -Oh, 100%.
And the worst is when -- when you're filming.
So, when we start back filming season four
and we haven't aired yet -- so we're in, like, you know --
Say, we're in episode five or six,
and so we have a ton of things that we're hiding,
and not even episode one has aired yet.
That's when it gets really difficult.
-Yeah, because then you're like,
"What am I even doing right now?"
-I don't know even what people are talking about.
It's, like, unbelievable. Yeah, and everyone's like, "What's happening here?"
And you have so much information.
-I know that you were -- And there's no spoilers for this,
but you are alive in the show.
-I am. Yeah, spoiler alert. Yeah. Thank God.
Well, what happens with me -- You never know.
Which is part of the brilliance of the show.
But you start to see on the call sheets, like,
so-and-so is going for a mold of their head
for their old-age makeup thing.
And so-and-so is coming in early for the age makeup thing.
And here's another person coming in early for the age make--
And I'm not on the thing. I'm not on the list.
-You're like, "Why am I not aging?! What's happening?!"
-Yeah, so my theory was -- I asked Dan Fogelman.
He's like, "Well, this is how Kevin ages."
You know, I'm like, "That makes sense."
So, no, I am -- I am alive. And so that's good.
That means that we can -- -He's great, Dan Fogelman.
He's fantastic. -He's amazing.
-Keeps me guessing for every episode.
Another great season. Well done, pal.
And congrats on the SAG Award. -Thank you.
-You won another SAG Award. -We did.
[ Cheers and applause ] Thank you.
We did. -For Best Ensemble.
-There we are. It's our second one in a row.
And the first one -- -Good for you, man.
-Oh, thank you.
The first one we won, we were at, like, table 2,
which was right next to the stage,
so I felt pretty good about it.
I was like -- We were all shocked when we won,
but I was like, "We're kind of close to the stage.
We'll get right up there."
We come this year, and we're at table, like, 76
all the way in the back.
And I'm looking at Chris Sullivan, and I'm like,
"Dude, there's no way." -"Not our year, this one."
-And sure enough, it happened.
So we got up there and got another one.
-It was great, and it was actually a beautiful speech.
Mandy said nice things.
And you thanked all of your parents.
-Well, yeah, because without our parents doing the nasty,
none of us would be accepting these awards.
-Yeah, all right. It was something like that.
But I thought that was a nice --
Are you getting any time off
now that "This Is Us" is not filming?
-I am, yeah, so, well, I'm working on a film right now
up in Canada called "The Exchange,"
where my character has to -- He's a former hockey player.
So I have to learn to skate, ice skate,
and so I don't know how to ice skate.
But I thought, "How hard could it be?"
I see people do it all the time. -Sure.
-Gliding around. It's like -- I'm athletic.
-Yeah. -It's not that difficult.
So -- Yeah.
-So you're out there, and you find out
that it actually is very difficult.
-It's nearly impossible, Jimmy. I'm not kidding. Like --
I had three hours. I had three. I was like, "Three hours?
Three hours? I'm gonna be great, give me three hours."
-"Give me ten minutes, I could learn how to ice skate."
-You could have three years and not be able to do it.
It's unreal. -Thank you for doing this.
You brought us in a video.
Here is Justin learning to ice skate.
Take a look at this. -Yeah.
Just the speed of that is amazing.
-Oh, my God. -This is going to work, man.
-Now, that -- -This is going to work.
-What you're watching there is hour three.
-It's hour three. -I couldn't --
-That's going to be a great movie.
-You can't move. Yeah, yeah.
So they have me wrapped up like Bubble Boy.
They go like this -- I get off the ice, and the director goes,
"So I -- You know, I saw the video of you skating up there."
And I was like, "Yeah." And he's like, "So we have a work-around.
So don't worry about it."
And they pulled me on a cart,
and I was just, like, kind of moving.
-He's not an ice skater anymore. He's a Zamboni driver.
And he's really good at that.
They made it work, right?
-I hope so. I think they made it work, yeah.
I was trying to make it look like I was --
He was like, "That's not even what it looks like
if you were actually skating."
He's like, "What are you doing?" -Speed skating. You're like...
-But it was a good time.
You could just see, like, all the color on their face.
They were like, "Oh, we are screwed.
-"It's going to be a long movie. Oh, no."
-"We need three years to get this guy."
-Tell us about your other movie, "Little."
-Yeah, so, coming out on the 12th.
And basically it's about this woman
who kind of -- She's overworked.
She's stressed out, and she kind of gets overcome
by everything that goes along with sort of being an adult.
And she loses touch with kind of how she's treating other people.
And so she gets transformed into -- It's hilarious.
She gets transformed into the, like, sort of,
kid version of herself. -Yeah.
-And then kind of receives
all of the stuff that's she's been getting.
-So she's like a little -- Like, a 13-year-old girl.
But with the brain of --
-Yeah, and it's perfectly cast, and this girl is amazing.
-Yeah. And you have a good slow-mo entrance, I will say.
-The slow-mo entrance is difficult because when someone
says, "You're going to have a slow-mo entrance.
We're gonna slow it down and everything."
You want -- You're like, "Okay, I can do that on my own.
I don't need you guys to do a slow-mo..."
-You're like, "Dude, have you seen me ice skate? Hello?"
-That was actually -- -"I'm pretty good."
"I know slow motion.
Perhaps you haven't seen me on the ice. Hello?"
But I still can't -- Right now, sitting next to you,
I can't believe that I actually let America see that clip.
-No, it's the best. We love that.
-Yeah, there's no taking that back.
-No, no. At least the good news is
that no one's going take that and make that into a GIF.
-This will be one of those moments where it's like,
"Remember before you let people see that?
And then there was after you let people see that."
-No. We'll see what happens in the movie.
But I want to show everyone this clip.
This is you -- This is you being introduced in the film.
-Yes, yes. -Here's Justin Hartley
and Issa Rae -- Oh, we love her. In the new movie "Little."
Take a look at this.
-There's your teacher, Mr. Marshall.
♪♪
-I get detention. -Hi.
-Hi. We are so excited to attend this school.
-This is Jordan.
She's feeling nervous about joining your class.
-Oh, yeah. Hey, listen. Don't be nervous, okay?
Perfectly normal, but don't be nervous.
I'll be with you the whole time.
-Promise? -I promise.
Your daughter's adorable. -Oh, it's not my daughter.
Ugh! That's my niece. -Oh.
-And I'm April. -April? Gary.
-I'm single, but not looking. I'm not desperate.
Just hoping and available.
[ Laughter ] -They're hilarious.
-Oh, that's great. Justin Hartley, everybody!
