    FROM “21 JUMP STREET,” “THE DISASTER ARTIST,”
    AND “THE STUDIO.” HE NOW STARS IN THE NEW HORROR
    FILM “TOGETHER.” PLEASE WELCOME BACK
    TO “THE LATE SHOW,” DAVE FRANCO! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
    ♪ ♪ [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
    ♪ ♪ HEY, GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
    IT’S BEEN A LITTLE BIT. YOU WERE HERE A WHILE BACK, 2018
    OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. YOU DID A WALK ON BIT FOR
    SOMETHING WE WERE DOING WITH YOUR BROTHER JAMES.
    HOWEVER YOU BEEN? >> Dave: I’VE BEEN ALL RIGHT.
    ANYTHING NEW WITH YOU? >> Stephen: NO, NOTHING SO
    FAR. >> Dave: FOR REAL I HAVE DO
    ALSO WANT TO START BY SAYING YOU ARE AN ABSOLUTE LEGEND.
    I’VE BEEN FOLLOWING YOU. I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING YOU SINCE
    THE DAILY SHOW TO “THE COLBERT REPORT” TO THIS
    SHOW. EVERYTHING YOU TOUCH TURNS TO
    GOLD. YOU’RE ONE OF THE SHARPEST,
    FUNNIEST PEOPLE ON THE PLANET AND I AM HONORED TO BE HERE.
    >> Stephen: BACK TO WHEN WE FIRST MET. >> Stephen: I CAN MOVE ON TO
    THE NEXT QUESTION. HAVE YOU BEEN, BABE?
    YOU SEEM GOOD. >> Dave: I’M PRETTY GOOD.
    >> Stephen: ONE OF THE THINGS, THAT GUY IS SO FUNNY CLIENTS
    HAVE THIS TO YOU BEFORE BUT WHEN YOU’RE IN “21 JUMP STREET” BACK
    IN THE DAY, YOU ARE SO FUNNY. HERE YOU ARE IS THE CHARACTER
    ERIC MOLSON. WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER ABOUT
    MAKING THAT MOVIE? >> Dave: THAT MOVIE WAS
    LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE. THE WRITING WAS SO GREAT THEY
    CREATED THIS CHARACTER FOR ME THAT WAS REALLY OUT OF HIS TIME.
    HE WAS THE COOLEST KID IN SCHOOL AND ALSO A GREENPEACE ACTIVIST.
    THERE WAS A SEQUENCE AT MY CHARACTER’S HOUSE, THIS PARTY
    SEQUENCE THE DIRECTOR CAME UP TO ME.
    THEY WERE LIKE, WE THINK IT WOULD BE FUNNY IF YOUR CHARACTER
    WAS THE TYPE OF GUY WHO BUSTED OUT AN ACOUSTIC GUITAR AT HIS
    OWN PARTY AND KIND OF FORCED EVERYONE TO CIRCLE AROUND TO
    LISTEN TO HIM SING. THEY RELY, CAN YOU PLAY GUITAR?
    I WAS LIKE, I CAN PLAY TWO OR THREE CHORDS MAY BE.
    THEY WERE LIKE, CAN YOU SING? NO.
    COOL. WE’RE GOING TO FILM IN
    30 MINUTES. IF YOU CAN COME UP WITH
    SOMETHING, THAT WOULD BE GREAT. >> Stephen: COME UP WITH A
    SONG? >> Dave: WHAT WE CAME UP WITH
    HER WHAT I CAME UP WITH WAS ♪ MOTHER EARTH ♪
    ♪ MOTHER EARTH IS DYING ♪ ♪ AND WHEN IT RAINS ♪
    ♪ IT MEANS THAT BEAUTIFUL BITCH IS CRYING ♪
    ♪ REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE ♪ >> Stephen: YOU COULD MAKE
    SOMETHING OF THAT. AS I SAID, YOU AND YOUR LOVELY
    WIFE MADE A LITTLE NEWS THE OTHER DAY.
    DID YOU SEE THIS? THIS SURPRISED A BUNCH OF
    PEOPLE, THIS HEADLINE. AN INTIMATE MOMENT IN PUBLIC.
    “ALISON BRIE CUTS DAVE FRANCO’S TOENAILS AND PUBLIC PARK.
    FANS HAVE THOUGHTS ON TMI VIDEO.”
    >> Dave: WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON IT?
    IS THAT WEIRD TO YOU? >> Stephen: I THINK IT LOOKS
    LIKE A VERY HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP.
    NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. >> Dave: IS THAT SOMETHING YOU
    AND YOUR WIFE WOULD DO? >> Stephen: WE HAVEN’T DONE IT
    YET. >> Dave: HAVE YOU ASKED HER.
    I THINK YOU SHOULD GIVE HER A CHOICE.
    >> Stephen: YOU KNOW WHAT, I’M JUST GOING TO TEST THE
    RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS ONE BECAUSE I DO NOT CLIP MY NAILS
    VERY OFTEN AND THEY ARE LIKE FRITOS CORN CHIPS DOWN THERE.
    >> Dave: HERE’S WHAT I’M GOING TO SAY.
    BEST PEDICURE OF MY LIFE. >> Stephen: FANTASTIC.
    NOT ONLY DO YOU DISPLAY IN PUBLIC LIKE THIS BUT YOU’RE
    DOING THE NEW MOVIE TOGETHER “TOGETHER.”
    >> Dave: IT’S A HORROR FILM, ALSO ROMANTIC, IT’S FUNNY, IT’S
    >> Stephen: HAD YOU WORKED TOGETHER BEFORE?
    >> Dave: WE HAVE BUT NOT THIS INTENSELY.
    WE CRANKED UP THE INTIMACY ON THIS ONE WHERE, YOU KNOW, THERE
    WAS A DAY ON SET WHERE WE WERE LITERALLY ATTACHED TO EACH OTHER
    WITH A PROSTHETIC ONE OF THE PREMISES AND WE ARE NOT GIVING
    ANYTHING AWAY. >> Dave: ATTACHED FOR ABOUT
    TEN HOURS. WE WERE CONSCIOUS ABOUT NOT
    TRYING TO DRINK TOO MUCH WATER TO AVOID BATHROOM VISITS AND
    INEVITABLY ONE OF US WOULD HAVE TO GOING TO DRAG THE OTHER WITH
    US AND THERE WAS A MOMENT WHERE SHE PEEING WAS AND I WAS
    STANDING ABOVE HER ATTACHED TO HER AND I REMEMBER THINKING WE
    COULD NOT HAVE MADE THIS MOVIE WITH ANYONE ELSE AND THEN I
    HANDED HER SOME TOILET PAPER AND WENT BACK TO WORK.
    >> Stephen: CLEARLY A GOOD RELATIONSHIP.
    WE HAVE A CLIP FROM “TOGETHER.” IS THERE ANYTHING WE NEED TO
    KNOW? >> Dave: LIKE YOU SAID WE PLAY
    A CODEPENDENT COUPLE AND WE GET INFECTED WITH SOMETHING SO THAT
    WHEN WE ARE APART WE START TO FEEL SICK SO WE NEED TO BE NEAR
    EACH OTHER AT ALL TIMES AND WE SLOWLY START TO FUSE AND THIS IS
    KIND OF AN EARLY STAGE OF THAT. >> Stephen: JIM?
    >> WHAT ARE YOU DOING? >> I’M NOT DOING ANYTHING.
    >> WHAT IS THAT? >> STOP, STOP.
    WHAT THE… >> WHAT IS IT?
    >> MILDEW OR SOMETHING. WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?
    SORRY. SLOW, SLOW.
    AHHH. >> Stephen: THAT’S DISTURBING.
    THAT’S DISTURBING. >> Dave: THAT’S A ABOUT 0.1%
    OF HOW DISTURBING IT GETS. >> Stephen: I UNDERSTAND THERE
    IS A PROP FROM THIS FILM THAT YOU KEPT.
    SHOULD I SET IT UP? >> Dave: I CAN KIND OF —
    BASICALLY THERE’S A SCENE WHERE THERE IS SOMETHING BEING CRAMMED
    INTO MY MOUTH AND THEN VIOLENTLY PULLED OUT CHINA DID PRACTICALLY
    FOR A LOT OF IT BUT THERE WAS ONE THING THE DIRECTOR WANTED
    THAT WAS UNSAFE FOR ME TO DO SO WE CREATED SOMETHING TO MAKE IT
    POSSIBLE. >> Stephen: CAN WE SEE WHAT
    THEY CREATED? [LAUGHTER]
    THAT’S NICE. >> Dave: AS YOU CAN TELL THAT
    WAS A POINT IN THE FILMING PROCESS WHERE I FULLY LOST MY
    MIND. EVERY SINGLE DAY ON THIS SET WAS
    VERY EMOTIONALLY AND PHYSICALLY TAXING AND AS YOU CAN IMAGINE,
    MY WIFE AND I WOULD GO HOME AT THE END OF THE DAY AND NOT
    REALLY HAVE THE ENERGY OR THE DESIRE TO BE ROMANTIC.
    AND SO KIND OF THE MOST ROMANTIC SHE WAS WITH ME ALL SHOOT WAS
    WHEN SHE MET MY BUST. >> Stephen: LOOKS LIKE HE’S
    HAVING A GOOD TIME. >> Dave: SHE WAS GETTING
    EVERYTHING SHE NEEDED FROM IT AND DIDN’T ASK FOR ANYTHING IN
    RETURN. >> Stephen: I UNDERSTAND HE
    WANTED THIS. >> Dave: I DID NOT WANT THIS.
    >> Stephen: DID SHE WANT TO? >> Dave: SHE MAY HAVE WANTED
    DO BUT OUR DIRECTOR TOOK IT HOME WITH HIM AND IT’S ON HIS OFFICE
    WALL AND ITS BEHIND HIM DURING ZOOM MEETINGS.
    [LAUGHTER] >> Stephen: YOU LIVE A WEIRD
    LIFE, DAVE FRANCO. DAVE, THANKS SO MUCH FOR BEING
    HERE. GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
    “TOGETHER” OPENS IN THEATERS ON JULY 30TH.

    1. He's a blessed man. He's much more grounded than I thought. Been loving Alison Brie since 'Community'. Nice that they are such a good match, and are doing projects together.

    2. Shallow, sycophantic guest interviews where half the time is spent praising each other. It’s unbearable — not made with the viewer in mind. Typical for American late-night, but with the show now canceled, it’ll likely be worse than ever.

    3. Get used to it, Stephen.
      Your guests for the next ten months will be eulogizing you and your show in the most lavish way.
      And all your fans will be mourning this unjust treatment from now until long after it’s over.

    4. she is not your wife…

      you are our princess…

      what are you digging from me… ı dont have it yet…

      what happened to jennifer aniston…

      how much this worse than gold digging…

      and you share it with everybody…

      she is not your wife…

      she is a sticker…

    5. Reduce-reuse-recycle….. let’s talk about The National Standard of Waste and National Native Seed Nursery! ❤ decreasing plastic pollution is my passion

    6. The toenails thing is so funny. It’s only TMI because of the paparazzi! Early on my husbands toenails were so long and the more I’d ask him to cut them the more he refused and rebelled so I sneakily did it whilst he slept. He stirred a bit and I paused, then again etc, I got all the way to the 10th toe nail before he woke up. 😂 20 years later we are not normal but really do love and like each other and are overly comfortable with each other. That’s how you know you’ve found your person. 🦶 ✂️ 😂

    7. Someone just screamed at me that sacrifice wasn't required for spiritual enlightenment only kindness and compassion…….which might require sacrifice 😊❤🎉

    8. I like these two but there's a legitimate lawsuit going on against that film. They allegedly ripped off the entire premise from some indie: Were shown the screenplay but declined because they wanted to package it with one of their own writers. So what the person is saying is that they went on to make this movie "Together" using the entire plot and even some of the finer details like character names. So if thats true my opinion of them will change drastically, but who knows: The person saying this could be totally full of shit and just out to make an easy buck. If that were me and a couple celebrities ripped off my idea only to go on and receive praise for it then I would be quite pissed.
