-I'm, like, really, really excited to be here.
-Oh, cool, I'm so happy that you are here.
I'm a big fan of yours.
So, this is the first time meeting you,
but I've talked about you on the show with other people.
We had Brie Larson on the show...
-Yeah. -...who you were in "Room" with,
and she talked about how much she loved you, and so --
You actually got to go to the Oscars that year, didn't you?
-Yeah, that was -- that was a lot of fun, actually.
-Did you meet any big stars?
-Well, there was -- there was this one night in particular
where I remember -- it was this night-before party
at the Oscars, and my parents were,
like, really starstruck about this one group of people.
It was Leonardo DiCaprio, um, Steven Spielberg, and my lawyer.
[ Laughter ]
-Wow.
-So, like, me being the cheeky eight-year-old I was,
I was like, "Hey, guys, watch this."
And so I walked over there, and I was like,
"Hey, guys, how's it going?!"
And then we were, like, chatting,
and they were really friendly.
-What'd you talk about?
-I think we were talking about how, like,
Steven Spielberg gives you, like,
any snacks you want in your trailer.
[ Laughter ] Yeah, yeah.
-What -- And what did Leo say? What's his favorite snack?
-I think I remember him saying, like, ice cream.
I can't remember what flavor,
but it was ice cream, and then --
-What do you like in your trailer?
-Oh, I said Mike and Ikes. -Yeah, they're great.
-I like fruit candy. It's, like, the best.
-Yeah, fruit candy -- yeah, they rock.
Yeah, I like Mike and Ikes, too. Yeah, totally.
That's wild, and so they just -- open arms -- that's great.
And then -- Then what happened?
-Okay, so, after I walked back to my parents, and I'm like,
"Hey, guess who I just met?
I just met -- Well, I said hi to my lawyer,
and I met Leonardo DiCaprio and Steven Spielberg,"
and my mom was like, "That wasn't your lawyer.
That was Tobey Maguire."
[ Laughter ]
Yeah.
[ Tuba blares ]
-Uh, well, now you're here. You're --
I heard a rumor about this.
I heard that you might be in the live-action remake
of "The Little Mermaid."
-Yeah? -Is that true? Well, maybe?
We're not sure. -I've also heard the rumors,
but, uh, my people have told me that it is down to me
and Harry Styles for the role of Prince Eric.
[ Laughter ]
-Your people -- yeah, your people, yeah.
-Yeah.
-I heard you were up for the role of Flounder,
is what I heard.
-Listen, Jimmy. It's like...
I know -- I know -- Harry Styles,
He's got, like, you know -- he's a good-looking dude,
and he's got some talent, but, like, I don't know if he --
I don't know if he could bring the, uh, you know, like,
acting chops and singing chops that I can bring to the table.
-Yeah, yeah, you're up for it.
[ Laughter ] So, it'll be a tight race.
You don't want to say who's playing who or whatever,
but we'll see. You're either --
hopefully Flounder or Prince Eric.
-But all jokes aside, I mean, like,
what kid wouldn't want to be in a Disney movie?
That would be a dream come true for me.
-Yeah, well, I'll have my people...
make a couple phone calls, yeah.
You're in this film -- gosh, is it funny --
called "Good Boys."
It's -- It's almost like
"Superbad" meets "Stand By Me." -Yeah.
-You get invited to a cool-kid party.
-Yeah, a kissing party.
[ Audience oohing ]
Cool kids. -Watch it, now.
So, you get invited to a kissing party, and it's a big deal.
-Well, yeah, but here's the thing --
like, they don't know how to kiss, so it's like...
-Yeah. -...it's kind of a big --
-Yeah, so no one knows how to kiss.
-Yeah. -And so they're kind of --
they're researching.
They're trying to figure out how to do it,
'cause they want to look cool when he's at the party...
-Yeah. -...when he goes there.
And this is, uh -- Seth Rogen produced this film.
-Yeah. -Man, he's a great guy.
-His, like, laugh is, like, amazing.
His laugh is so neat.
-He's got the best laugh. Do you --
Like, how do you do it again? Do you know how he laughs?
-Yeah, I'll try.
[ Imitates Seth Rogen's laugh ]
I know it's not that good, but, like,
it kind of sounds like Santa
if he, like, smoked cigarettes or something.
[ Laughter ]
-That's your movie idea right there.
You got to talk to your people. -Santa who smokes cigarettes?
-Yes.
[ Laughter ]
In that area, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[ Imitates Seth Rogen's laugh ] -Am I playing Santa?
-What was that? -Am I playing Santa?
-No, so, let Seth play Santa, and you can be --
-Alright. -Yeah, you can be whatever.
-An elf, yeah, I guess.
"Let the short kid play an elf."
-No, I didn't -- I didn't say that, no!
-Come on. -I wasn't gonna say that at all!
I want you to play Mrs. Claus.
-Oh, okay, yeah.
-No, but, so, you do this -- by the way, I also heard you do
an Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonation?
-Yes. -Now, can I --
How did you figure this out?
-Um, so, basically, um,
I remember, like, watching, like, the "Predator,"
and, like, I was like, "Dude, he's got a sick accent,"
and I was like -- I was always imitating him.
I was always like,
[As Schwarzenegger] Get to the chopper!
We have to get out of here!
Now, now!
I need to eat some schnitzel!
It's in my tummy! Mm, yum, yum in my tummy!
[ Laughter ]
-Oh, my God.
Kid is hitting homers, man.
Uh... [ Laughs ]
Uh, you're hitting homers, buddy.
It is rated R.
I will say this -- it's rated R.
-[ Normal voice ] Oh, it's very rated R.
-Alright, alright, calm down.
I want to show everyone the clip.
Here's Jacob Tremblay in "Good Boys."
Take a look at this.
-This is a really pretty CPR doll.
-I guess I'll go first.
-Stop. What are you doing? -Kissing her?
-You can't kiss someone without their permission.
Remember from assembly?
-Pretend it's Brixlee. Try to be a gentleman.
-Okay.
Brixlee, can I kiss you?
-Why? -Why?
-Yeah. What do you like about me?
-Well...you're sweet.
You smell good. You're smart, too.
You always push Henry in his wheelchair
even though he's super mean.
And just when I think I've got you figured out,
you go ahead and start skateboarding.
-I consent.
[ Laughter and applause ]
-Jacob Tremblay, wow!
