IT WAS REALLY HOT IN 1917 WAS THE NAME HAROLD. BUT WE BROUGHT, WE BROUGHT HIM TO THE PEDIATRICIAN, AND SHE WAS LIKE OLD NAMES ARE MAKING A COME BACK. NOT HAROLDS, BUT OTHER OLD NAMES. >> Jimmy: DO YOU CALL HIM HAROLD OR DO YOU CALL HIM HARRY? >> WE CALL HIM HAROLD. >> Jimmy: YOU MIGHT AS WELL, YOU MIGHT AS WELL GO FULL-ON HAROLD. >> HE LOOKS LIKE A HAROLD. >> Jimmy: I THINK ALL BABIES AT THAT AGE LOOK LIKE HAROLD. >> WE ALL LOOK LIKE HAROLD OR LEONARD. >> Jimmy: YOU GROW OUT OF HAROLD AND THEN YOU GROW INTO HAROLD. THERE'S A 65 YEAR SPAN WHERE YOU'RE NOT VERY HAROLD-Y, THEN YOU GET VERY HAROLD-Y. >> YES, YES. HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT TO COME INTO HIS OWN, BUT IT'S GOING TO BE AMAZING. >> Jimmy: YOUR PARTNER, THE BABY'S DAD IS NOAH BOMBECK. THERE YOU GUYS ARE ON THE COVER OF "THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER."

IN. IN. >> YES, IT'S TRUE. >> Jimmy: IS THIS DRIVING A WEDGE BETWEEN THE TWO OF YOU, AS EVIDENCED IN THIS PHOTOGRAPH? >> NO. NO. ALTHOUGH OUIWE DID HAVE TO CHEC WITH EACH OTHER, BECAUSE WE VOTE IN THESE THINGS. IT HAD TO BE, WHO DID YOU PUT FIRST? >> Jimmy: IS THAT HOW IT WORKS? YOU RANK WHICH ONE YOU THINK IS NUMBER ONE? >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> Jimmy: DID YOU EACH PUT THE OTHER'S MOVIE FIRST? >> NOPE. [ LAUGHTER ] I ADMIRE YOUR HONESTY. THE WORST CASE SCENARIO WOULD BE YOU PUT YOUR MOVIE FIRST AND HE ALSO PUT YOUR MOVIE FIRST. >> YES, NO, EVERYBODY'S SELFISH. >> Jimmy: NOW THIS IS A REALLY, I HOPE IT'S NOT EMBARRASSING TO YOU, BUT FOR "HOLLYWOOD REPORTER" SOMEBODY SNAPPED IT AND SAYS SHE TOOK THE PRIZE FOR THE FIRST A-LISTER TO TAKE HER SEAT. THERE YOU ARE SITTING ALONE AT THE GOLDEN GLOBE. ARE YOU ALWAYS EARLY TO THINGS? >> NO, YES, I WAS TWO HOURS EARLY TO THIS. I WAS IN AN EMPTY BANQUET HALL. AND I WAS, BELWELL BECAUSE NO O I WAS NOT NOMINATED. SAOIRSE WAS NOMINATED, BUT I WAS NOT NOMINATED, BUT I WAS THERE TO SUPPORT NOAH, AND HE WAS DOING ALL THIS PRESS, AND I WAS JUST THERE EARLY. I WAS IN THIS BANQUET HALL WITH NO ONE THERE, THEN I SAW ALL THE MEMBERS OF THE HOLLYWOOD FOREIGN PRESS SORT OF INSIDE, AND THEY WERE ALL LIKE WE VOTED FOR YOU, AND THEY WERE LIKE, YOU DIDN'T, BECAUSE I DID NOT GET NOMINATED. IT'S NOT POSSIBLE THAT ALL OF YOU DID. SO I SAT THERE ALONE. THEN WE HAD A WONDERFUL PLANT-BASED MEAL. AND I ATE SO MANY PEOPLE'S SOUPS. THEY WERE GOING TO TAKE THEM AWAY BEFORE EVERYBODY ARRIVED. AND I WAS LIKE, I GOT TO EAT ALL THIS SOUP. IT'S A PROBLEM. SO I'S A ATE A LOT OF SOUP. >> Jimmy: WHAT KIND OF SOUP WAS IT? >> IT WAS LIKE A BUTTER NUT SQUASH THING. IT WAS LIKE SOMETHING HAROLD EAT. IT WAS GREAT. I'S A BUNC ATE A BUNCH OF SOUP. AND A FRIEND TEXTED ME THAT PHOTO BECAUSE THEY WERE FOLLOWING ALONG AT HOME. WHAT'S HAPPENING? I'M JUST ALONE. >> Jimmy: THANK GOODNESS YOU HAVE YOUR TELEPHONE WITH YOU. THAT IS CRAZY. >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> Jimmy: THE CAST, AS YOU MENTIONED, IT'S A FANTASTIC CAST. WHEN YOU HAVE A CAST, THERE'S NOBODY ABOVE MERYL STREEP. SHE'S THE TOP OF THE HEAP. >> STREEP IS THE SCENE. STREEP AT THE TOP OF THE HEAP. I'M SURE YOU'VE BEEN ASKED MANY VARIATIONS OF THIS QUESTION. IS IT THE SAME AS DIRECTING EVERYONE ELSE IN THE CAST SORE IT DIFFERENT? >> IT'S DIFFERENT. SHE'S MERYL STREEP. I FEEL LIKE WHEN I WAS DIRECTING HER AND SAOIRSE RONAN, JO, AN AMAZING ACTRESS. THE TWO OF THEM TOGETHER. THEY WERE DOING A SKEECHCENE. IT WAS HER FIRST DAY. I WAS LIKE A PARENT CHAPERONE AT A MIDDLE SCHOOL DANCE. I WAS LIKE NOT THE PERSON WHO NEEDS TO BE THERE. I WAS LIKE, HOW'S IT GOING, GUYS? DO YOU NEED ANY -- OKAY, I'LL BE OVER HERE BY THE PUNCH. JUST YOU GUYS. JUST GO FOR IT. >> Jimmy: WHAT IF MERYL DECIDED I'M GOING TO HAVE A SPANISH ACCENT FOR THIS? >> THEN THAT'S WHAT "LITTLE WOMEN" WOULD BE. >> Jimmy: I ADMIRE YOUR HONESTY. >> Jimmy: GRETA GERWIG! "LITTLE WOMEN" IS IN THEATERS NOW.
