-She's like, "Dad, you're embarrassing me! Stop it!"
-She's just like nothing. [ Laughter ]
-And at work -- But at work, too?
You said you did an Ang Lee movie.
-Dude, I'm having so -- I don't know what happened.
'Cause, you know, I've never been on social media
or anything like that. -No.
-So I've stayed off the whole time.
I started a couple months ago.
And I'm working on a movie now with Ang Lee.
Like, he's a four-time Academy Award --
-Oh, I mean, he's unbelievable. [ Cheers and applause ]
-Yeah. -Unbelievable director.
He's like -- -He's like, "Where is Will?"
And I'll be over behind the scene,
"Yo, I'm on the set with Ang Lee."
[ Laughter ]
-He's like, "This is a $400 million budget, dude.
Pay attention!"
On your phone.
But then you're also on Instagram.
I love that you're doing this because it's funny.
It's also -- You give great advice.
-Thank you, man. -No, it's actually great.
You give great advice on marriage.
-Yeah, you know what's happening with me, though, right?
It's like when you make a movie, it's 18 months.
Like, you work and it's 18 months before --
-Till people get to see it. -Till people see the movie.
But now, it's like there was so many things that were dying
on my creative vine, you know?
When I did "The Fresh Prince," it was every single day.
You know? And the show came out once a week.
[ Cheers and applause ] Yeah!
-I mean, come on.
-So I'm just psyched. I'm gonna be doing skits.
I'm gonna be doing short films, music.
I started recording again. You know? So, I'm like --
[ Cheers and applause ] Yeah. Yeah.
-You're also taking these gorgeous photos.
-I know. It's like -- I'm alive again, Jimmy!
[ Laughter ]
-Oh, my God. I mean, look at this picture.
-I took that -- I took that the other day.

the National Geographic people, doing a show for them.
And I've seen some of their photographs, you know.

-He will, like, flip your head upside down, dude.
He's amazing. Genius.
-It's just about -- it's about --
It's called "One Strange Rock" and it's about the Earth.
And it's -- you know, I've never done anything like that.
So I wanted to do something.
But it is -- the stuff that they're finding --
they're finding new stuff on Earth.
And you would think after you've seen
enough "National Geographic" stuff,
you've seen all the stuff from Earth.
-Everything. Yeah.
-You've seen the cheetah hit the back leg of the thing.
[ Laughter ]
-Yeah. That's one of my favorites.
-You know? [ Laughter ]
-I've seen that show many times.
-And now the impala succumbs. [ Laughter ]
You know? You know?
You know that one thing -- -This is different.
-It's different. These dudes found, like, an acid lake.
Right?
So there is an acid lake on Earth.
And there's, like, a single-celled organism
that's like the only creature on Earth that doesn't need oxygen
to survive.
And I'm like, you know, I love all that kind of --
-I geek out for that stuff too. -Yeah.

stunning visuals that you've ever seen.
