you got nominated for the Oscar, and you went to the Oscars.

-That is so weird to hear out loud.

Man, I thought this was gonna be easier this time.

Not easier at all. -Really?

Are you freaking out right now? -No, no, no. It's all good.

It's all good. [ Laughter ]

-Was I your first talk show, or no?

-That was my first. -It was your first appearance.

-I figured if I wore this crazy jacket I would be, like,

assured or something, but I feel --

-You still feel the lack of confidence, really?

-No, I-I, um... -[ Chuckles ]

It's not normal for you. It doesn't feel normal.

-No, no. -It doesn't.

Yeah, but didn't you -- You performed on stage before.

-I performed on stage.

I'm just going to lock into you to feel less...

[ Laughter ]

-I don't think you --

You're so dreamy. [ Laughter ]

What happened? What was Oscar night?

Did you get all excited? Did bring the family?

-Man, it was nuts. I went with the family.

-Aww, you're a good kid. -It was the most surreal --

Yeah, it was the weirdest night of my life.

-And who did you go with? Your sister?

-I went with my sister, went with my mom, my dad,

and my mom was next to me.

My sister and my mom got in a fight about, like,

during the commercial break -- -You weren't sitting together?

-No, my mom and I were sitting together.

My sister wanted to come closer during, which is normal.

[ Laughter ]

And I was like, "Mom, can you give her the seat

for like one commercial break?"

My mom was like... -"No."

-"All right," like...

I was like, "It's one commercial break."

-Guys, don't make it about you, please.

I'm nominated for a... -No, no. That's not it all.

-I know. I know. I know. I know. But still...

-Mom, sister, all right. Love you guys.

-No, I know. I know you do.

But then did you get to go home and relax after the Oscars?

-I literally stayed in my parents' place for a week,

which, like, in New York, which is like 13 blocks from here,

and the first night, I was like, "Ah, this is so charming.

I'm back home, whatever."

But by end of the week, I was like,

"What am I doing here?

-I got get out of here. -Yeah, I got to get out of here.

-So you were you in your own bedroom?

-Yeah, I was in my bedroom.

My parents were, like, telling me,

"Don't cancel our DVRs."

[ Laughter ]

I'm like, "Why did I do all this work?!"

-I love it. I love it.

All this work, still the same kid in this house.

-Yeah, but do you have your, like, awards that you won?

-They're all weirdly, like -- They're my mom's now.

[ Laughter ]

And they're like with all my childhood taekwondo trophies.

So, it's like a very weird thing.

How have you been, man? Everything's cool?

-Oh, stop it. No, no. -No. No, man, seriously.

-You're so nice. You don't have to talk about me.

I have you on so I can talk about you.

-Okay. -Yeah.

People see enough of me here.

Oh, you know what -- Let's talk about this thing.

There is an Instagram account -- I don't know if you saw this --

where people take your face, and put it on art.

I don't know if you -- Have you ever seen this?

-[ Laughing ] Yes.

-It's not me.

I wish I was the person doing it,

but it's works of art,

but then they put your face on it,

and they do a pretty good job.

[ Cheers and applause ]

It's beautiful.

-Statue of David right there.

-That is so weird.

-[ Laughs ]

I love it, though. -But it's cool. It's cool.

And I'm grateful to whoever is doing that.

Thank you, and thank you for working on that.

-Are you doing that? Could you do Photoshop?

Do you know how to do that? -I can't do Photoshop for sh...

[ Laughter ]

-For Chalamet. -[ Laughs ]

That would be so bad if I walked into that.

-Dude, I -- [ Laughs ] -So preferential.

That'd be like-- -I know. Oh, my God.

"There he goes. He's now referencing himself."

-No. I would not do that. -I couldn't do it for Chalamet.

-Man, wouldn't it be bad if I came back out here,

and I was like... -A different dude.

-You know that guy, you know? -You ignore me, yeah.

-With the eyebrows raised? -No, don't ever change.

-Man. Never, man. -Please, don't change.

-How could I change, man? -You're great the way you are.

-All right, I'll just stay -- -Perfect. Just stay, yeah.

[ Cheers and applause ] That's perfect. Just do that.

-Can we talk about --

Talk about your movie, "Beautiful Boy."

-Sure. -Man, once again,

another great role for you.

I mean, you just nail it. -Thank you.

-You made me laugh, cry.

It was an emotional roller coaster, dude.

-Man, and thank you for actually seeing it,

because, like... -I do. That's my job.

-No, no, but we've been --

'Cause Steve Carell is in this movie, too,

and we've been going around, and sometimes you can

really tell when someone has not seen the movie,

cause they'll be like tell -- you know, "How was it?"

-How about the scene with the car accident?

"Well, that was great," and they go,

"There was no scene with a car accident, man."

-[ Chuckles ] So, yeah, but no.

-It's tricky, and, you know, it's rough,

'cause it's about addiction. -Yes, exactly.

So not to segue unnaturally,

but I do want to be...

not too serious about this, but this is a serious thing.

Like, a lot of people, and a lot of young people,

are going through an addiction crisis

in this country right now, and for whatever reason,

there is a bit of trepidation to talk about it.

And that's what this movie, I think,

hopes to address in some ways.

And Steve Carell plays my father.

I played Nic Sheff, who is a real person.

He's alive and well today. He's sober.

He was a methamphetamine and heroin addict

throughout his youth, and he made it, and he's good.

-He made it through. He made it.

[ Cheers and applause ]

-It's so tricky. -Yeah.

-And so scary, because it happens,

and you don't know --

Steve does a great job.

Having you as a son, and you went to college,

and then now his boy is now, like, addicted to drugs,

and just, like, that's his life now.

And he's like, "We got to get you back."

-And I think that's the point of the movie.

That's the point of the books, as well --

They're based on two books --

is that addiction is not a recognizable face.

This affects everyone.

There shouldn't be a moral taboo around it.

There shouldn't be a shame.

That's how we get past it. That's how we deal with it.

-Talk about it, talk to people. -Talk about it. Yeah, exactly.

And that's way out, man.

And again, I'm not being facetious,

thank you for bringing us on this show.

Thanks for letting us talk about this,

'cause it's not the most

commercial of movies or whatever,

but thank you for letting us be here and talk about it.

-Absolutely. [ Cheers and applause ]

It's great movie. Great job.

I want to show everyone a clip.

Here's Timothée Chalamet and Steve Carell

in "Beautiful Boy."

-I got to see this one through.

This is kind of working out for me right now.

I got five days sober.

-It doesn't look like it's working out, Nic.

-Oh, it doesn't look like it's working out?

So, what, then? Therapy, huh? -No, you can come home.

-No, that wou-- -Make it work, please.

Nic?

Please.

I've been doing some research. -You've been doing research?

You got to be kidding me, Dad.

-You think that you have this under control.

And I understand how scared you are.

-I understand why I do things.

It doesn't make me any different, all right?

I'm attracted to craziness, and you're just embarrassed,

because I was, like, you know --

I was like this amazing thing,

like your special creation or something,

and you don't like who I am now. -Yeah? Who are you, Nic?

-This is me, Dad, here. This is who I am.

[ Cheers and applause ] -Timothée Chalamet, everybody!
