-I want to talk about "Zombieland: Double Click."
"Double Tap." -Tap. Tap.
-"Double Tap."
[ Cheers and applause ]
I love that everyone came back. -Yeah, I know.
Yeah, we waited 10 years to do the movie. Well, we didn't wait.
We were trying to do the movie right after the first one,
'cause the first one was so popular.
And then we just couldn't, like, couldn't, like --
We just waited for, like, the best script.
In the meantime, the two writers,
Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, did "Deadpool,"
and then we were kind of waiting for them to finish that
so they can, like, write this. And we were all waiting,
you know, me, Woody Harrelson, Emma Stone, Abigail Breslin,
we're all waiting for, like, the best script,
and it finally came in.
Why are you laughing? 'Cause I named the characters?
-No, I'm laughing because they went on
to probably write "Deadpool 2," as well.
-Yeah, they did that. -Yeah, and --
Waiting for your -- Writing your script. Yeah.
-Yeah, yeah. No, I meant it as a series,
"Deadpool" the series. -Oh, yeah. Exactly, yeah.
-They're really funny writers. But you came in --
Is it fun? We love Woody
and Emma and Abigail. -Yeah, sure.
-Is it fun working with those guys?
-Oh, yeah, they're amazing. Yeah, I mean, yeah.
You only realize in retrospect how great they are,
because you have other experiences
that are not as amazing,
and it's just like the ideal collaboration.
-Do you like doing comedy more than drama,
or do you care? Do you like both?
-I like it, although every time I do a comedy,
I remember how difficult it is for only one reason,
which is that it's like,
you usually have some amazing comic performer that --
Well, you know also from being on "SNL."
You would famously laugh and stuff, which was funny, as well.
But, like -- No, you were great.
No, I mean, it was hysterical to watch. It was like --
-No, I mean, I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't want to laugh.
-No, no, I know, but, I mean -- No, no, no, I mean --
-Other people have.
-Yeah, of course. And it's great.
-No, but I don't do it for -- I don't do it --
-Nor did I. I would screw up,
but, like, in "Zombieland," like, you're -- You know, like,
there's this great actress, Zoey Deutch, in this.
Everything she did was so unbelievably funny
that it's, like, impossible to keep a straight face.
-I had the worst time on "SNL."
I couldn't stop. -Right, it's difficult.
-I was just out of my league, and I didn't know
what I was doing. -What are you talking about?
What's going on? You're amazing. -Will Ferrell --
No, now I feel bad about myself.
-What are you talking about? You're a genius,
and you have "The Tonight Show."
You have the most storied talk show in history.
-I don't even think I'm gonna celebrate Halloween this year.
-Well, don't do that, yeah. [ Laughter ]
-But set up the movie for me.
This -- It's 10 years later?
-Right. Yeah, so, "Zombieland" takes place
in Zombieland 10 years later,
and the characters, you know, have moved into the White House,
and they kind of are all annoyed by each other.
It's kind of like an "Odd Couple" situation,
but it's funny. And I don't know what you're about to see,
but it's from "Zombieland." -Here we go.
