>> Stephen: WE'RE DOING WELL.

WE'LL HAVE TO MUTE THIS.

I'M SUPPOSED TO BE HEARING YOU THROUGH MY IFB, AND WHEN WE

FIGURE OUT HOW TO LISTEN TO YOU, THROUGH THIS OR MY LAPTOP.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DOING THIS.

( NO AUDIO ).

>> Stephen: CAN'T HEAR A WORD, BUT YOU LOOK VERY NICE.

LET'S SEE WHAT KIND OF MIME TRAINING YOU'VE GOT THERE,

RADCLIFFE.

COME ON, YOU TRAINED ACTOR.

( LAUGHTER ) NO, NO?

SO, DANIEL, I KNOW I CAN'T HEAR YOU YET, BUT I SENSE YOU CAN

HEAR ME, BASED UPON HOW HAPPY YOU ARE TO HEAR MY DULCEET

TONES.

YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'RE LOOKING AT ME THE WAY YOU'RE LOOKING, BUT

I'M GOING TO HAVE TO LOOK OVER HERE TO LOOK LIKE I'M LOOKING AT

YOU.

I MEAN, IT'S GOING TO BE HARD, BECAUSE THE EYE JUST WANTS TO GO

RIGHT THERE.

YOU'RE JUST SO CHARMING.

JUST A BLACK HOLE OF CHARM, SUCKS IN ALL THE EYES AROUND IT.

OKAY.

I'M GOING TO KEEP DOING THIS.

AND AT SOME POINT, I'LL HEAR DANIEL, AND THEN WE'LL LIGHT

THIS CANDLE.

>> STEPHEN, CAN YOU HEAR THAT?

>> Stephen: NOPE.

YOU KNOW, IT'S GOOD THAT IT'S NOT EASY.

IT ADDS ANOTHER FLAVOR.

IT SPRINKLES A LITTLE SALT ON THE SHOW.

YOU KNOW.

WHO DO I CALL?

HEY, YOU'RE DROPPING THE BALL, RADCLIFFE!

( NO AUDIO ) I SEE HIM.

YOU CAN HEAR ME, DANIEL?

OKAY.

I STILL DON'T HEAR ANYTHING FROM THIS ONE.

♪ I WOKE UP THIS MORNING WHEN THE SUNRISE SHINING IN

BOOOM ♪ OH, I FOUND MYSELF IN A BROWN

PAPER BAG WITHIN ♪ OH, I TRIPPED ON A CLOUD AND

TORE MY MIND ON A RAGGED SKY ♪ JUST DROPPED IN TO SEE WHAT

CONDITION MY CONDITION WAS IN ♪ IT WAS "WHAT CONDITION MY

CONDITION WAS IN BY KENNY ROGERS WRITTEN BY MEL TILLIS AS A WAY

TO WRITE A JOKE PSYCHEDELIC SONG OF HOW FUN IT WOULD BE TO MAKE A

PSYCHEDELIC SONG AND IT BECAME A HUGE HIT AND AN ANTHEM OF

PSYCHEDELIC ROCK.

WHERE'S YOUR SUIT, DANIEL?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

WHAT YOU DON'T OWN A SIEWLT?

COME ON.

THERE ARE STANDARDS.

WHEN IS THE LAST TIME-- NO, HE CAN'T RESPOND.

HOW DOES IT FEEL?

WE'VE BEEN WATCHING YOU ON SCREEN FOR YEARS AND BEEN

YELLING AND YOU HAVEN'T SAID A DAMN THING BACK!

OH, HE'S WRITING!

HE'S WRITING THINGS OUT.

OOOO.

I THOUGHT I SHOULD BE CASUAL.

YES, YOU DEFINITELY SHOULD.

WHAT'S YOUR NUMBER?

I'LL JUST CALL YOU.

I'LL CALL YOU.

HEY, EVERYBODY.

YOU KNOW MY GUEST TONIGHT FROM "SWISS ARMY MAN," "MIRACLE

WORKERS," AND A LITTLE INDY FILM SERIES CALLED HARRY POTTER.

PLEASE WELCOME "THE LATE SHOW", DANIEL RADCLIFFE.

>> HI, STEPHEN.

I CAN HEAR YOU.

YOU CAN HEAR ME?

>> Stephen: I CAN, LOUD AND CLEAR.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE.

>> NO, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR HAVING ME AND PERSEVERING AND

THE PEOPLE MAKING THIS HAPPEN RIGHT NOW.

>> Stephen: OH, YEAH, EVERYBODY OUT THERE IS JUST

KILLING THEMSELVES TO MAKE THIS WORK RIGHT NOW.

I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR HAVING THAT GRAPHIC BEHIND YOU OVER

YOUR SHOULDER.

THAT'S NICELY DONE.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THAT'S THE BIGGEST PAPER I HAD.

IT'S A SMALL SIGN, BUT IT'S A SIGN.

>> Stephen: IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

THANK YOU FOR THE EFFORT.

SO, HOW-- HOW ARE YOU DOING RIGHT NOW?

ARE YOU ALL SAFE AND SOUND AND FULLY SEQUESTERED?

>> YEAH, ABSOLUTELY.

I GOT IN FROM EUROPE-- I WAS DOING A PLAY IN LONDON, WHICH,

OBVIOUSLY, AMONG THE MANY PLACES THAT CLOSED EARLY.

-- >> Stephen: SORRY, HOLD ON.

LONDON, THUD.

GO AHEAD.

( LAUGHS ).

>> AND MY GIRLFRIEND IS HERE, AND --

>> Stephen: HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON ONE SECOND.

SOMEONE'S GOT A GOIL.

T.THERE YOU GO.

>> AND I WAS JUST, LIKE, VERY, VERY CONCERNED TO GET BACK TO

HER THROUGH ALL THIS AND NOT BE, LIKE, YEAH, YEAH.

SO I-- I-- GOT ON-- I THINK IT WAS ONE OF THE LAST FLIGHTS OUT

BEFORE THEY SHUT DOWN THE FLIGHTS.

AND SINCE THEN, I'VE BEEN, YEAH, DOING A TOTAL QUARANTINE.

SO THIS IS DAY 11 OF 14 OF NOT LEAVING THE HOUSE.

>> Stephen: WOW.

>> YEAH.

>> Stephen: NOW I UNDERSTAND-- I HEARD YOU WERE THE SUBJECT OF

A HOAX WHEN A FAKE BBC ACCOUNT-- NOT THE BBC.

IT SAID IT WAS THE BBC-- TWEETED THAT YOU WERE THE FIRST

CELEBRITY DIAGNOSED WITH COVID-19.

IS THAT TRUE?

>> YEAH, IT WAS.

>> Stephen: WHEN WAS THIS.

>> THIS WAS ABOUT... THREE WEEKS AGO PROBABLY NOW.

AND I-- I JUST WENT INTO HAIR AND MAKEUP BEFORE I WAS DOING

THE PLAY AND THE MAKEUP ARTIST SAID TO ME, "YOU'VE GOT

CORONAVIRUS."

AND I SAID, "WHAT?" >> Stephen: THAT'S HOW YOU

FOUND OUT?

YOUR MAKEUP ARTIST TOLD YOU?

>> YES.

HE GOT A TEXT FROM HIS NIECE, WHO APPARENTLY TEXTED HIM SAYING

SOMETHING TO THE EFFECT, "THAT DUDE YOU'RE WORKING WITH, HE HAS

CORONAVIRUS," VERY MUCH A WARNING TEXT, LIKE, "YOU

SHOULDN'T BE WORKING WITH HIM.

HE SHOULDN'T BE THERE AT ALL."

HE SAID THAT TO ME, AND I WAS-- I KIND OF-- YOU KNOW, I'VE HAD

VARIOUS WEIRD STORIES MADE UP ABOUT ME OVER THE YEARS.

BUT NONE AS TOPICAL AS THIS.

BUT, LIKE, SO I KIND OF, LIKE, LAUGHED IT OFF, AND THEN I DID A

DAY OF PRESS THE NEXT DAY IN WHICH EVERY INTERVIEW WAS JUST

ME DENYING I HAD THE CORONAVIRUS.

>> Stephen: WHY DO YOU THINK YOU?

IS IT BECAUSE YOU KIND OF LOOK ILL?

>> I THINK IT IS, HONESTLY.

LIKE THAT WAS MY FIRST-- MY FIRST-- MY FIRST WAS I SO OFTEN

WILL-- AND GOD KNOWS WHEN I USED TO-- I DON'T READ COMMENTS ABOUT

MYSELF ON THE INTERNET ANYMORE GENERALLY, BUT WHEN I USED TO--

AND I DID USED TO-- THERE WERE SO MANY LIKE, "HE'S ILL.

HE HAS A SECRET ILLNESS HE'S NOT TELLING ANYONE ABOUT."

I'M JUST VERY PALE.

I THINK THERE'S THAT, ME BEING PALE, AND I'M NOT ON SOCIAL

MEDIA, SO I'M KIND OF NOT ON TOP OF IT ENOUGH TO SEE IT AND REACT

TO IT QUICKLY ENOUGH TO STOP IT.

>> Stephen: YEAH.

>> I CAN PUT OW SPEAKER?

ARE PEOPLE GOING TO-- ARE GOING TO WATCH THIS AND BE LIKE, "WHY

DIDN'T THEY HAVE THE PHONE ON SPEAKER?"

>> Stephen: I GUESS SO.

WHY DON'T WE HAVE THE PHONES ON SPEAKER?

I THINK IT MIGHT FEEDBACK.

>> ALL RIGHT.

>> Stephen: THEY'RE RECORDING ME, AND THEY'RE RECORDING YOU

AND THEY WILL FIT THIS TOGETHER.

IT WILL TAKE ABOUT A MONTH TO GET THIS TOGETHER, I THINK.

>> I WATCHED YOUR REHEARSAL EPISODE.

THAT WAS-- THAT WAS FANTASTIC TO WATCH.

>> Stephen: OH, THE ONE WE DID IN THE THEATER.

>> YEAH.

>> Stephen: WITHOUT THE AUDIENCE.

YES, IT WAS FUN.

>> THAT WAS AMAZING.

IT WAS SO-- YEAH-- WE.

>> Stephen: WE HAD ALL THE TECHNOLOGY THERE.

WE JUST DIDN'T HAVE AN AUDIENCE.

THIS IS WE'RE HAVING TO REBUILD EVERYTHING.

YOU'RE SOCIAL DISTANCING NOW.

HOW ARE YOU PASSING YOUR TIME AND STAYING SANE?

>> SO, YEAH, I MEAN, I'M READING A LOT, DOING ALL THE THINGS THAT

OTHER PEOPLE ARE.

THE THING THAT HAS MAINLY PASSED A LOT OF TIME-- ALTHOUGH IT'S

NOW-- THERE IS NOW A HUGE HOLE IN MY LIFE BECAUSE IT'S

FINISHED, BUT WE DID A MASSIVE LEGO PROJECT, AND IT'S, LIKE, A

THREE,200-ISH, SET OF JURASSIC PARK, SO IT'S THE DOORS AND T.

REX.

AND IT'S AWESOME.

YOU KNOW, IT WAS HAVE, VERY FUN.

IT TUNING A LOT OF TIME, AND WEIRDLY MEDITATIVE.

>> Stephen: YOU DID THE ENTIRE JURASSIC PARK LEGO PROJECT.

>> YES.

>> Stephen: HOW LONG DID THAT TAKE YOU?

>> I THINK WE DID IT OVER THE COURSE OF THREE DAYS.

WE COULD HAVE DONE IT FASTER IF WE HAD BEEN EXCLUSIVELY DOING

IT.

I KNOW, WE'VE GOT THE TIME.

>> Stephen: HOLD OMY SON IS HERE.

PETER, YOU HAVE DONE SOME BIG LEGO PROJECTS.

>> OH, YEAH.

>> Stephen: HAVE YOU DONE THE JURASSIC PARK LEGO.

>> IS THAT A RECENT RELEASE.

>> Stephen: IS THAT A FAIRLY RECENT RELEASE, DANIEL?

>> IS THAT A RECENT RELEASE?

SHOULD I SHOW IT TO YOU?

>> Stephen: OH, JUST SHOW IT TO ME, YEAH.

>> THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS I WAS LAUGHING AT, WHEN THIS WAS

GOING OI WAS LAUGHING THINKING I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M SITTING HERE

GETTING READY TO GO ON "STEPHEN COLBERT" AND SHOWING MY LEGO S.

>> Stephen: BELIEVE ME, IF WE COULD TRANSPORT THEM I WOULD

HAVE YOU BRING IT ON THE SHOW.

>> Stephen: OH, WOW!

THAT IS SWEET.

>> I HAVE NOT DONE THAT.

>> Stephen: >> A DOORS OPEN.

>> Stephen: DO YOU HAVE A T.

REX?

OH, DAMN!

CLEVER GIRL.

>> SO THAT'S -- >> Stephen: THAT'S THE RAPTOR.

NO LETTERS, PLEASE.

THAT'S FANTASTIC!

>> YEAH, SO THAT TOOK SOME TIME.

AND I'M NOT REALLY LIKE-- THAT'S THE THING, I ACTUALLY FIND THE

TRYING TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTION AND WONDER IF I'M GETTING IT RIGHT

PART QUITE STRESSFUL, BUT I DON'T REALLY DO THAT THAT.

I SORT OF ORGANIZE THE PIECES INTO SHAPES AND COLORS, AND THEN

I PASS THEM TO ERIN AS SHE PUTS IT TOGETHER.

SO WHEN I SAY, "I BUILT A LEGO" I HELPED.

>> Stephen: SO YOU'RE A SOUS CHEF.

THAT'S IT.

>> THAT'S A REALLY NICE WAY OF SAYING IT.

>> Stephen: YU'RE PREPPING.

YOU KNOW WHAT, I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS, DO YOU

THINK THAT HARRY POTTER HIMSELF MIGHT BE A GOOD MODEL FOR PEOPLE

WHO ARE HAVING TO SEQUESTER?

BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU, HE SPENT 11 YEARS-- YOU'VE

DONE 11 DAYS-- HE SPENT 11 YEARS LIVING IN A CUPBOARD.

>> YES, YEAH, RIGHT.

I MEAN, THAT'S VERY MUCH THE PART OF THE BOOKS THAT I FEEL

LIKE WE WANTED-- WE WANTED PEOPLE TO ASPIRE TO.

>> Stephen: RIGHT.

WE DON'T GET TO REALLY SEE MUCH ABOUT THAT.

>> IT ACTUALLY WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SETS.

I LOVED BEING IN THAT LITTLE CUPBOARD.

BUT IT WAS, LIKE, IT WAS REALLY COOL.

BUT, YEAH, NO, I THINK THAT'S REALLY THE MESSAGE OF THE BOOKS

THAT I REMEMBER IS ISOLATE YOURSELF.

>> Stephen: THE NEW SHOW "MIRACLE WORKERS," IS IN ITS

SECOND SEASON.

AND THIS SEASON IT TAKES PLACE IN MEDIEVAL TIMES.

>> YES.

>> Stephen: IS THAT THE TIME PERIOD OR IS IT "MEDIEVAL TIMES"

WITH KNIGHTS FIGHTING IN THE SAND PITS AND DRINKING DIET

PEPSI.

>> IT'S NOT.

I HAVE YET TO GO TOW A REAL MEDIEVAL TIMES.

>> Stephen: YOU HAVE GOT TO.

>> I KNOW, IT'S GENUINELY ON MY LIST.

A VERY GOOD FRIEND OF OURS HAD A BACHELORETTE PARTY AT ONE AND I

DID FEEL LIKE I WANT TO GO.

BUT, YES, IT'S SET IN THE DARK AGES AND, YOU KNOW, I'M, LIKE, A

SLIGHT HISTORY NERD AND READ A LOT --

>> Stephen: THERE IS A PLAYING IN THIS SEASON OF THE SHOW.
