>> Stephen: HEY! WELCOME BACK, EVERYBODY! FOLKS, YOU KNOW MY NEXT GUEST
TONIGHT AS BORMER FROM "THE LORD OF THE RINGS" MOVIE TRILOGY AND
THE HBO SHOW ABOUT THE NAKED DRAGONS. PLEASE WELCOME SEAN BEAN. ♪ ♪ ♪<i>
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )</i> >> THANK YOU. >> Stephen: I'VE NEVER MET YOU
BEFORE. I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO. THIS IS VERY PLEASANT FOR ME. >> YEAH. >> Stephen: EVEN THOUGH WE'VE
NEVER MET, I'VE ACTUALLY SEEN YOUR FACE IN PERSON. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THAT
CAN POSSIBLY MEAN? >> YOU'VE SEEN ME IN A SHOP. >> Stephen: NO, I WENT DOWN TO
NEW ZEALAND, AND I SAW THE CAST THEY MADE OF YOUR HEAD BECAUSE
WHEN THEY'RE DOING THE SPECIAL EFFECTS, THEY HAVE TO CAST
EVERYONE'S HEAD. AND YOUR-- YOUR--
>> MINE ESPECIALLY. >> Stephen: YOURS IS VERY... YOURS IS VERY SPECIAL. THEY TOLD ME THAT YOU DIDN'T--
YOU DIDN'T LIKE THE EFFECT OF HAVING YOUR FACE CAST. >> I DIDN'T REALLY. I-- I HAD IT DONE IN A KITCHEN
IN LONDON. SOMEONE CAME UP TO MY HOUSE,
JUST COVERED ME IN THIS PLASTER OF PARIS. >> Stephen: IT'S A VERY
CLAUSTROPHOBIC FEELING. YOU HAVE LITTLE STRAWS UP YOUR
NOSE. <i>( LAUGHTER )
>> YEAH.</i> LIKE SCUBA DIVING, ISN'T IT,
WHEN YOU'VE GOT TO BREATHE THROUGH YOUR MOUTH-- OR YOUR
NOSE, IS IT? >> Stephen: YEAH, YEAH. THROUGH YOUR MOUTH FOR SCUBA
DIVING. >> I FOUND IT QUITE SOOTHING,
AFTER THAT, AFTER THE INITIAL SHOCK. >> Stephen: AFTER THE FIRST
TIME. >> I FELL ASLEEP. >> Stephen: BECAUSE YOUR--
BECAUSE YOUR MASK DOESN'T LOOK SOOTHING AT ALL. YOU LOOK UPSET. I HAD THEM SEND ME THE
PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE DIFFERENT MASKS THEY MADE. FOR INSTANCE, HERE'S ELIJAH
WOOD. HERE'S I HAD MASK, VERY CALM,
VERY QUIET. HERE'S ORLANDO BLOOM, VERY CALM,
VERY QUIET. AND HERE'S YOU, NOT REALLY
THRILLED ABOUT IT. <i>( LAUGHTER )
YOU WERE LIKE WAITING FOR IT TO</i> BE OVER. WAITING FOR IT TO BE OVER. IT'S GOT A LIGHT "BURIED ALIVE"
QUALITY TO IT. ANYWAY, EXWAIP. >> NOW I KNOW WHAT I LOOK LIKE
BALD. >> Stephen: YOU GREW UP IN
SHEFFIELD, RIGHT? >> YES, SHEFFIELD. >> Stephen: AND YORKSHIRE,
THAT'S A VERY SPECIFIC ACCENT. I HEAR YOU TALK, IS THAT A
YORKSHIRE ACCENT? >> KIND OF. I'VE TONED IT DOWN A FEW. NOT A FEW-- A-- SOMETIMES IT IS
REALLY BROAD PUP PROBABLY WOULDN'T KNOW WHAT I WAS TALKING
ABOUT. >> Stephen: WOULD YOU BE--
WOULD YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE TURNING ON A LITTLE BIT MORE
YORKSHIRE FOR ME RIGHT NOW? >> I'D FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH
THAT, YEAH. >> Stephen: TELL ME ABOUT YOUR
DAY IN SORT OF A YORKSHIRE ACCENT. >> I'VE OF I GOT UP ABOUT 8:00,
AND THEN WENT TO THE STUDIO, AND DID A FEW RADIO INTERVIEWS AND
ON THE TELLY. THEY WERE GREAT. HAD A GREAT TIME. REALLY CHAMPION. >> Stephen: YEAH, YEAH. ( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )
>> YOU KNEW-- YOU KNEW WHAT I WAS SAYING DIDN'T YOU. >> Stephen: I DID NOT CATCH A
LOT OF THAT, THOUGH. THE NEW SERIES ON CRACKLE. IT'S CALLED "THE OATH." WHAT'S IT ABOUT? >> IT'S ABOUT A POLICEMAN, ABOUT
CORRUPTION IN THE POLICE FORCE. IT'S NOT SET IN ANY PARTICULAR
AREA. IT COULD BE ANYWHERE IN AMERICA. AND --
>> Stephen: DO YOU HAVE AN AMERICAN ACCENT IN IT? >> NO, GUESS WHAT I HAVE? >> Stephen: WHAT? >> A YORKSHIRE ACCENT. <i>( LAUGHTER )
GLI BET THAT WAS IN THE</i> CONTRACT. >> IT WAS IN THE END. BUT JUST ABOUT PEOPLE BEING
CRUMENTED. I MEAN, THEY BECOME CRIMINALS,
YOU KNOW, WITHIN THEIR OWN CEEND OF FRATERNITY, THEIR OWN
BROTHERHOOD. AND IT'S ALL IN THE FAMILY. THEY BRING THEIR BROTHERS IN,
THEIR SONS, ALL GROW INTO IT, AND THEY DEAL DRUGS JUST LIKE
GANGSTERS, I SUPPOSE, LIKE CRIMINALS. AND THEY ACTUALLY RUN THE
GANGSTERS. IT'S SOMETHING WRITTEN BY JOEL
HALPERRIN, AND HE WAS A SHERIFF IN THE L.A.P.D., FOR MANY YEARS,
AS AN UNDERCOVER, AND HE ACTUALLY DID THIS STUFF. HE BECAME A CRIMINAL. >> Stephen: I UNDERSTAND THAT
50 CENT IS THE PRODUCER OF THIS. >> YEAH. >> Stephen: YOU HAVE GUYS HUNG
OUT A LOT? >> YEAH, I MET HIM-- NOT A LOT. BUT THE FIRST TIME I MET HIM WAS
IN SAN JUAN, IN PUERTO RICO. >> Stephen: THAT'S WHERE YOU
WERE SHOOTING. >> YEAH, YEAH. >> Stephen: DID YOU HAVE ANY
HURRICANE PROBLEMS DOWN THERE. >> YEAH. I HAD LEFT BY THEN. MY SCENES HAD FINISHED AND I
WENT HOME AND I WAS WATCHING IT ON TELEVISION AND IT WAS QUITE
SHOCKING, YOU KNOW, TO THINK WE WERE THERE. THEY HAD TO STOP BUT THEY WENT
BACK AGAIN AND FINISHED IT OFF THERE. AND I THINK THEY WANT TO
CONTINUE WORKING THERE. WHICH IS GOOD FOR THE-- FOR THE
ISLAND. >> Stephen: FOR SURE. >> FOR THE RESIDENTS. >> Stephen: I'M SORRY, I
INTERRUPTED YOU. YOU'RE DOWN IN PUERTO RICO WITH
50 CENT. >> YEAH, JUST HANGING AROUND. <i>( LAUGHTER )
JUST HANGIN'.</i> AND HE WAS ON THE SET. HE WANTS TO COME DOWN AND SEE
HOW IT WAS GOING. AND HE'S A GREAT GUY, LOVELY TO
MEET HIM. AND HE'S VERY-- VERY JOVIAL,
REAL GENTLEMAN. >> Stephen: WE HAD HIM HERE. A LOT OF FUN. DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE 50 CENT
SONG? >> "IN DA CLUB." >> Stephen: THERE IT IS. THERE IT IS. <i>( APPLAUSE )
WELL, SEAN, THANK YOU SO MUCH</i> FOR BEING HERE. LOVELY IT MEET YOU. >> NICE TO MEET YOU. >> Stephen: "THE OATH" IS
STREAMING ON CRACKLE. SEAN BEAN, EVERYBODY. WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
"Boromer"
I'm a bit surprised as Colbert for that mispronunciation, since he's a huge Tolkien nerd.
Loving the Yorkshire support!
I see what you did there
