-How is everything? How's
the family? How are the kids? How old are the kids?
-Everybody's good. I have a 7-year-old
and almost 4-year-old. We are similar, right?
-Yeah. 5 1/2, very technical.
And a 4-year-old. 5 1/2 and a 4-year-old. -If we're going that far, then
I have a 3 and an 11-month-old. -[ Laughs ]
-Yes. -I mean, seriously,
they really take that seriously. "No, Dad. I'm 5 1/2." -Yeah.
No, that's exactly the problem. They feel like the limited
amount of knowledge that they have at this age, they act as if they're masters
of that knowledge. And uses it consistently.
-Oh, yeah. -In a manner like you're stupid,
Mom. [ Laughter ] -Of course, yeah. -Like, my 3 and 11-month-old
always says -- I'll say like, "Isn't the sunrise
so beautiful?" She'll be like,
"Actually, Mom --" -Actually is good.
-"Actually, it's very rude to just say
that the sun is beautiful." I'm, like, driving in the car. -Where do they get those words
like "actually"? -First of all,
I think a stranger comes into my house at 3:00 a.m. [ Laughter ] Because none of us
use any of the words. Like, she learned martial arts. The little one learned, like,
technical martial arts. Like, full perfect
wrestling grips. I don't know
where she learned it. I think a trainer comes in
at 3:00 a.m. and trains her. -"Actually, we're gonna first do
this one actually. Then we're going to actually --"
Yeah. -No, I came in the other day,
and she literally, like, had my assistant in, like, a
back lock, in like a full grip. And she wouldn't let go. And my poor assistant was like,
"Augie, you got to let me go." And I was somewhat impressed. But I was like, where is she
learning all of this stuff? -That's cute, though.
-Yeah. -When they're that little, you don't even want them
to let them go of you. -My 7-year-old said to me
the other day -- She's like, "You know,
Medusa's in our pool." I said, "I had no idea Medusa
lived in our pool." I said, "Where is she from,
by the way?" And she just looked at me
and she went, "New Jersey." [ Laughter ] -We all knew that, of course.
New Jersey. Maybe Seth
is rubbing off on them. Yeah, hanging out with Seth. -It might be Seth
that's coming over. -Yeah, Seth Rogen, yeah. -Yeah, 'cause he did karate
as a kid. So, yes, this makes sense! -This is all blame --
-We figured it out! -We blame Seth Rogen!
-It's Seth! -We blame you, Seth. I'm so excited that you got
together with Seth. I love the movie.
-Thank you. -It's super fun. I don't think I've ever seen you
in a romantic comedy, have I? -No, I am in movies where I get
killed, or I kill. -Yeah.
-Or I'm just a bitch. -Yeah, but no.
This one though -- -That's my range. -What made you want to do this
and work with Seth? -You know, honestly, it was him.
I'm a huge fan. -Yeah, me too. -And I really love the movies
that he makes. Not, you know, only as an actor,
but what he writes and produces. And I never thought that I would
somehow fit into that world. But he sent me the script,
and there was something about it that felt grounded enough
that it felt like it could really work
between the two of us. -Yeah, I mean,
he comes off as a stoner, but he really puts a lot of
thought into everything. [ Laughter ] I know, he does that, but he
really is a very good producer. -Listen, I have never witnessed
anything like it. It's impressive.
-Right? -It's really impressive. The first meeting we had,
we started -- we knew we had to
develop the project. And it took about five --
over five years for us to develop this,
and in the first meeting, I was just really impressed by
his confidence, his intelligence,
how well he knows story, and then he lit a joint
and took a hit off it. [ Laughter ] -And then it was off the rails. -It was like I was in
the presence of Einstein. It was like off the charts. -Wait, what?
-No, he gets -- He takes a hit. -He was the opposite?
-No, he gets so smart. He gets so smart.
He gets so focused. He gets so creative. I mean, literally, on days
I would just follow him and be like, "Please smoke,
just smoke. Please smoke. Please. Please smoke."
[ Laughter ] -Get it together.
Come on, buddy. -We need a hit. We need this
movie to be great. Please. -It's a great idea,
the plot of this film. Would you like to explain
what it's about? -Yeah, I mean, it's a little bit
of a reverse of what we know
romantic comedies to be. It's usually the guy
who's in the role of power, but my character
is in the role of power. She's the Secretary of State. -Good for you.
-Thank you. [ Applause ] It's just a character.
-I like it. -It's not me.
I'm just playing a part. But I'll take it, and she --
the president in the first act decides that he's not gonna run. He's not gonna rerun, and he -- because he wants
to have a career in film. -The president -- the actual
President of the United States. -The actual President
of the United States, yes. And he was an actor who was playing a president
on a TV show before, but now he wants to
break into film. So she decides to run, but she realizes that in
the polls that she's lacking. People don't find her
funny enough. She has a weird wave --
you know, all the weird things that we scrutinize
female politicians for. And so she hires Seth Rogen's
character, who is a journalist, who has gotten fired and is
a little bit too much of an ideologist to be a writer
who has a job, and they also know each other. She used to baby-sit for him. So we go on this journey and we
kind of rediscover each other and fall in love with
each other. -You have great chemistry.
-Yeah. -It's really, really great. Hopefully you guys
do more films together. In this scene right here, you guys are on Molly,
I will say, right? Ecstasy? -Molly.
-Molly, okay. Yeah, Molly. There's a difference, okay. And -- but you -- is this -- is this method acting, or is
this just acting, acting? [ Laughter ] You don't have to tell me. Okay. -It's a little bit of both.
-Okay, perfect. Very good. Here's Charlize Theron
and Seth Rogen in "Long Shot." Take a look at this. [ Cheering ] -Madam Secretary. Madam Secretary, listen to me. -Dance with me, Steven! Dance! -You have a situation.
-Huh? ♪♪ ♪♪ -How much longer is
this Molly stuff gonna last? -We just re-upped. You kept saying you wanted to
take more so we did. So we have another, maybe,
four or five hours. Yeah. Why? -I'm in so much trouble. -What's happened? -I'm going to be
in so much trouble. -What's happened?
-All right, all right. -Are they out of water? [ Laughter and applause ] -Charlize Theron, everybody.
