-You have so much to talk about, so much coming out.
The new film called "The Nest,"
which was a Sundance selection --
it's in select theaters Friday,
on demand starting November 17th.
What -- Can you set up the film "The Nest"?
-This is a film regarding a young couple
who decide to leave the States and head to London in 1986,
around the time of the economic boom.
And, really, it's just a study
of how a family are pulling in different directions,
all trying to keep the family together,
all trying to make the family work,
but sort of tempted, if you like,
by the lure of greed, of money,
and -- and not necessarily what's best for them.
It's a really subtle, elegant, beautiful look at family life.
And I had a great time making it.
Carrie Coon plays my wife, and as I said,
Sean Durkin directs really wonderfully.
-This new HBO series, limited series
called "The Third Day." -Yes.
-I don't know how to set it up without spoiling it.
-Okay, so there are two sections.
The first three are called "Summer,"
and it's about a man dealing with terrible loss and grief.
I don't think I'm giving anything away by telling you
he's lost his son.
And he's trying to sort of heal and remedy his life.
He gets taken to an island by a young girl
who is trying to do a good deed for --
and gets stuck on this island.
Now, it's an island, a real island
off the coast of Essex called "Osea,"
which has this old Roman causeway,
so it only opens, this causeway at certain times of the day.
And we filmed on this island.
The community on the island and the culture of the island
has been sort of elaborated,
but it's really a sort of symbol of him trying to lose the --
him trying escape the isolation of his own grief,
which is, if you like, the metaphor for the island
and trying to get off this and away from this community.
And then the second half, the other three,
are called "Winter,"
and they're another perspective of the island in the community
from a woman's point of view, Naomie Harris.
Now, in the middle is a live event that links them.
I was originally pitched this by Felix Barrett,
who is the artistic director of Punchdrunk,
who have a wonderful production in New York
and around the world.
They were kind of creators of immersive theater.
And he had this idea -- -Oh, yeah, what did --
what did they do?
-"Sleep No More." -"Sleep No More."
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, of course. -That's right.
So he came to me -- he had this idea that he wanted to do,
like, a film story, whether it was on TV or film,
and then a live event that was somehow linked
to blur those lines of like,
"is this real? Is this not real?
Is what I'm watching actually happening?"
We're gonna have a single camera.
We'll be there as actors, as performers,
and the camera will follow us
and the events for 12 hours live.
So it'll be a kind of combination
of a sort of live event, a live piece of theater,
a film in the -- but a film done in one take,
and at times, you know, you may be watching people,
like, doing some crazy, like, pagan dancing.
And there may be scenes.
There will be moments when it's a series of the cross
because it's sort of a religious theme going through.
There'll also be stuff that I actually don't know,
because they're going to be throwing things at me
left, right, and center over 12 hours.
-12 hours. I mean, that is --
I love that you're doing this.
I think it's gonna be fantastic. -[ Chuckles ]
-That's October 3rd. -Hopefully, hopefully.
-Oh, yeah, no, I'm going to catch up on "Summer"
and get ready for October 3rd, then...
-Please do. -...then for "Winter."
Yeah, no, I'm -- I'm psyched, buddy.
I want to show everyone a clip.
Here the Jude Law in "The Third Day."
Take a look.
-You -- You talked of sacrifice here.
-Sacrifice?
Sam, that was 2,000 years ago. -Look at this place.
Is there anything [bleep] normal here?
I found dead animals all over this island.
Who's doing that?
No, there were -- there were pictures down there
hanging on the wall of Jack the Ripper's victims.
Is that standard?
Men in masks have just chased me.
Someone nearly shot me.
-Okay, if this is all true, then what do we do?
-We get off the island!
We find a phone. We call the police now.
-Okay, how?
-[ Sighs ]
Can you swim?
-Jude Law, everybody.
Check out "The Third Day" on HBO and HBO Max
and "The Nest"
in select theaters Friday and on demand November 17th.
Thank you so much for being here, Jude.
I really, really appreciate it.
-Honestly, I will never, ever forget
the fact that you've come into my house.
I love it. -Thanks for --
Thanks for having me, and kiss that baby.
-I will. -Bye, buddy.
-Thank you, I will. Over and over. Best wishes.
Bye, everyone. -Thank you. Bye, bud.
