- Would you rather get a tattoo of Ryan Reynolds
or Taika Waititi on your back?
- (laughs) Oh God.
Can I do half and half? (laughs)
(jazzy music plays)
(typewriter typing)
- Hey guys, you know my next guest
as the lethal, Villanelle, on Killing Eve.
She's the cementing her bad-ass bonafides
in the ginormous new film, "Free Guy."
It's the delightful, Jodie Comer.
Hey, Jodie!
- Hello!
Hi, how are you?
- I'm doing great.
It's so good to see you.
I'm so glad "Free Guy" is so awesome.
You have an amazing cast in this,
you're led by of course,
the great Ryan Reynolds,
you got Joe Keery, and Taika Waititi, Lil Rel.
Let's be honest though,
what percentage of the credit goes to Jodie Comer?
- Oh, a hundred.
One hundred, it was all me, baby.
- Right answer.
Yes. (laughs)
- It was all me. (laughs)
- Yeah, you've gone Hollywood,
you know the right answer.
Yeah.
- Yeah, I've changed.
- We have not spoken since you made a brief,
but pivotal role
in "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker," my friend.
I have questions.
Every character in Star Wars has a name.
Does your character have a name?
- No. (laughs)
- What?
Like literally, the robot in the corner of the screen
has a name.
- She was raised mum.
- (laughs) but it feel-
- Is that not enough?
- Do you think your character knew
the dude she was having sex with was the Emperor's son,
when they hooked up?
- I've, I've got a (laughs) I've got a confession to make.
I am not well-versed in the Star Wars world.
(host laughing)
And I was very honest about that before I went into it,
because I was like,
there's no way I can do this
and not, not be completely honest.
- Right.
- And I'm going red now because I can feel, (laughs)
I can feel you judging me.
- No.
We had a good friendship going, my friend,
and it's it's run its course.
That's it, we're done, we're done.
- It's over.
- Okay, are you ready for a game, Jodie?
Let's play a game, shall we?
- Yes, let's go.
- Okay, so we're, we're calling this one,
very imaginatively, "Ryan Reynolds or Lyin' Reynolds."
Let's see how well, you know your co-star.
I'm going to say a supposed fact,
you tell me
if this is actually Ryan Reynolds or Lyin' Reynolds.
- Love it.
- Ryan Reynolds once smuggled an apple pie across the border
for Blake Lively.
- I'm trying to figure out
why you would have to smuggle an apple pie.
But, Ryan Reynolds?
- It is Ryan Reynolds.
(dinging sound)
- Wow.
That's true love.
- Ryan Reynolds has a 3.0 out of 5 on the Wikifeet Men.
That it's his ranking on Wikifeet Men.
- (laughs) I've never seen his feet.
Ryan Reynolds? (incorrect buzzer)
- He has 4.98.
- Of course he has 4.98.
- There's no faults on him, he's perfect.
- He's perfect.
- Ryan Reynolds gained 25 pounds once for a movie.
- Can you gain 25 pounds of muscle? (laughs)
- You're on the right track.
Ryan Reynolds?
- Yes. (dinging sound)
That jerk gained muscle for Blade Trinity.
- Wow.
- Ryan Reynolds can say every curse word in Greek.
- L...Lyin' Reynolds.
- What, sorry?
- (laughs) I'm trying to read your lips.
Ryan Reynolds? (dinging sound)
- Ryan Reynolds.
So, if you're in Greece with Ryan, do not cross him.
- Don't cross him. (laughs)
- Ryan Reynolds' nickname with close friends
is "Big Slippers"
because he loves to wear big slippers
when he hosts dinner parties.
- I mean he has like 4.98 feet on Wikifeet,
so I'm thinking he was no slippers.
- I'm going to say Lyin' Reynolds? (laughs)
(dinging sound)
- Very good logic.
You connected the dots.
Yeah.
- I did, I did.
- Well done, well done.
Okay, some "would you rather" questions for you.
"Free Guy" themed questions for you.
Would you rather be stuck inside Grand Theft Auto
or Animal Crossing?
- Animal Crossing.
It's so zen.
It's so chill.
- Nothing chill in Grand Theft Auto.
- Mm, nope.
- Would you rather be a bank teller or a bank robber?
- Bank robber.
Sorry, not sorry. (laughs)
- Would you rather be a side character in a game
or the main player in the game?
- Well, if I'm Guy, I'd like to be a side character.
He goes on a really beautiful journey, so.
- Would you rather get a tattoo of Ryan Reynolds
or Taika Waititi on your back?
- (laughs) Oh, God.
Can I do half and half?
- Like a centaur,
the top half Ryan, the bottom half Taika?
- Yeah, some sort of creature.
Yeah.
I feel like I can't choose,
like I'm going to offend one of them.
Like they actually care about my answer.
I'll say Ryan.
- Okay, Ryan.
Would you rather only wear leather pants
the rest of your life
or only be naked the rest of your life?
- Oh, God. (laughs)
- No one said, no one said these are going to be easy.
- I take everything so literally, this is my problem.
The leather pants situation,
this is a tricky one for me
because it was like Boston summer.
Having said that, I don't fancy walking around naked
for the rest of my life.
So I'm going to go leather pants.
- Would you rather there be a Killing Eve video game
or cartoon?
- Cartoon.
That was so quick. (laughs)
I would love to do like an animation
or a cartoon of some sort,
that was like definitely on my bucket list.
- Would you rather marry Ryan Reynolds or Sandra Oh?
- Sandra is my screen wife, I got to go Sandra Oh.
- I get it.
He'll understand, he'll understand.
- Yeah, we'll be glued together forever.
- (laughs) I do want to mention briefly, before we go,
"The Last Duel" is coming pretty soon.
I was talking to your buddy, Matt Damon,
who was just disgustingly effusive
about your performance in the film.
This is you, it's, it's Damon,
it's Ben Affleck, it's Adam Driver,
directed by Ridley Scott.
It's a serious film. - Yeah.
- It's a serious drama,
some weighty issues.
So let's leave those aside for now
and talk about the hairstyles.
I have some questions.
How would you analyze this hairstyle of Mr. Ben Affleck?
- I think- - Does it work for him?
- I think it does, okay?
I really do.
Like Matt with the bleach blonde, I think is great.
- So you, wait, you prefer Matt?
You like this look more than Affleck's?
- I love a mullet.
- And what, where do you come down on Mr. Adam Driver's?
- I mean, he looks like he was,
(laughs) he was born to play that role in this era.
- Yeah, there was no makeup required.
He just walked out of bed, he got out of bed,
that was him. (laughs)
- That was it.
- Do you think he knows that you were in Star Wars?
Did you mention it,
considering you know nothing about Star Wars,
did you mention it?
- (laughs) Nobody mentions Star Wars, ever.
(both laughing)
- Don't mention Star Wars to Jodie.
- I don't think he knows.
- Seriously?
Really?
- I don't think so, I didn't think so.
- You have an integral role.
- It was the most integral role of the whole franchise,
I would, I would think, I would say.
- It would fall apart without you.
Yeah.
Even though, she has no name.
- (laughs) She has no name.
She who has no name.
- Congratulations, buddy, on "Free Guy."
This one totally works. - Thank you so much.
- It is so fantastic to see you in this.
And I'm glad it gave us an excuse to catch up today.
- I know!
It's always such a pleasure.
