-Eddie, you play a wizard in
"Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald."
Were you into magic as a kid at all?
-I was -- I was properly --
I was sort of embarrassingly into magic as a kid.
'Cause I -- you know how kids
have magicians for their birthday and stuff?
-Yeah. -But normally until about the age of 8,
9 may be pushing it, 10, 11. -Yeah.
-At age 15, 18, no one came to the parties,
but I still had -- I was still inviting magicians, so...
-Really? -Yeah, yeah, properly in to it.
-I remember getting books out of the library
that were just magic trick books.
I think they technically counted as books,
so I was reading -- I was reading books.
-A proper book. -Yeah, exactly.
-I had a little brother
who was about six years younger than me,
so it was the perfect audience.
I could do magic tricks on him.
I tried ventriloquism.
And he got to about the age of well, 3, being able to speak,
and he was like, "I can see your mouth is moving."
-"Yeah, I'm not going to do that."
-No. So that was the end of my --
-But do you remember any tricks?
-I can do a trick for you, Jimmy.
-Yes. -I can try.
-All right, this will be fantastic.
All right, here we go.
-Okay. I need a --
-Oh, wow, here we go. Sure, yeah.
-I basically -- I basically wore a roll neck
because I feel like only magicians
can pull off roll necks.
And, like, so -- Okay, so here in this pocket here...
-Okay. -Not in that pocket. In this pocket.
...I have a special something for you, Jimmy.
And it's a letter with your name written on it
in really, like, Hogwartsian writing.
-Yes, it is. -I just want you to hold that.
I want you to hold that. Just keep that, look at that.
Hold it. Don't touch it. Just look at it.
Okay. Next out, what do I have in my --
Oh, here, I have a pack of cards.
-Okay. -Not any cards.
Actually, Jimmy Fallon brand cards.
-Oh, yeah. We do have our own kind of -- we have our --
-You have your own brand of cards!
That's the greatest thing ever!
Okay. -Isn't that awesome?
-So I'm going to take these cards out.
And because they're your own brand,
you know that there's nothing dodgy about these cards.
-These are, like, professional. These are the best cards you can get.
-In the world. Okay, good. -Yes.
-So, I'm just gonna -- I'm gonna basically take these cards.
I'm gonna rifle through them.
And I want to you shout "stop" when you feel like it.
-Okay. -Okay. But you have to shout it.
Okay? Ready, steady, go.
-Stop! -Okay, I want you to look at that card.
-Yes. -Can you see the card, Jimmy?
-Yes, I can. -Can you guys?
Can the camera see the card? -Yes.
-Okay, okay, okay. I want you to remember that card.
Can you see the card? Okay, good.
Now, can you help me?
-Okay, of course. -Remember that spell we just learned?
-Yes. -Can you lick --
[ Laughter ]
I want you to lick this.
I'm going to try to make the card disappear,
and I need your spittle, Fallon.
[ Laughter ]
-Oh, my gosh. I knew something was coming up with that.
All right, so you want me to lick this?
-I just want to try and make that card disappear.
But I need you to kind of think of the card,
and I need to you lick the pack of cards.
And my hands might vibrate as it happens.
[ Laughter ]
-Okay. -Okay.
Okay, good work. Let's see if it's gone, okay?
So can you see your card here, anywhere there, Jimmy?
-No. -Okay.
A little flourish. -Wow, yeah.
-Can you see your card there, anywhere here?
-No, I can't.
-No!
This has nothing to do with the trick.
I just love doing it.
Anywhere there?
-Bizarre. No.
-No, no, Jimmy, well, no,
because I have a potion in my roll neck
that I brought from Hogwarts, all the way.
And it is made --
This is crushed powder made with Niffler feces.
-Wow.
-That was a bit much, wasn't it? -It was a bit much.
Yeah, yeah, but still, it's good. I like it.
Enjoying this. -You see, there's nothing in my hand.
-Yes. There's nothing in your hand.
-So I'm going to take this excrement here.
-Yes. Be careful with that. -And I'm going to gently
just pour that over my hand.
-I hope I don't have to lick this.
-Well...
-Here we go. -Okay.
[ Blows ]
-Hmm.
-Think of your card, Jimmy. -No.
Whoa, look at that!
Seven of diamonds.
[ Cheers and applause ]
There's more. There's more! -There's more, there's more,
there's more, because look in your envelope.
[ Drumroll ]
-This is what I think it is...
Wow, it's wax. -It's waxed.
-Wow! -It could be an invitation to Hogwarts.
That might be slightly more exciting than what it is.
-Dude, you did it, man.
Oh, my gosh! Look at that!
Look at that! You see it?
[ Cheers and applause ]
You know what you're doing! You know what you're doing!
Eddie Redmayne, everybody!
