Emma Thompson Gets Wild

The distinguished actress played a game with Ellen in which she had to impersonate as many animals as she could before time ran out... and even a little after! Check out how she did!

[@LeoSaraiva]

I think this is one of the bestests duck impression made by an Academy Award winner. Congratulations, Emma Thompson.

[@narfravia]

XDDDDDDDDDDDD

[@shadowweaver3693]

Bestests? What language is that ? 🤣🤣🤣

[@cumbiera2intelectual]

'I hate Emma Thompson' said no one ever. She's the best.

[@khing7237]

I died at the pig noise. I died again at the donkey.

[@only78percentemo57]

+Khinghooi Yap guess you could say you're... dead again. get it? because it's emma thompson? no? okay. i'll leave.

[@VladSicoe]

Yeah, me too :)) Oink, oink!!!! This was brilliant

[@jameslawinangelo9756]

So it means you resurrected twice??

[@Widdekuu91]

"We are gathered here today...to remember..."

[@lauralunaazul]

It was perfect!

[@ChelBUMM]

This is (still) the best thing I've ever seen.

[@MediaLover194]

I like how Emma challenges herself by not taking the easy way out (duck, etc.)

[@NadiaBKat167]

It's what made this video so funny. She's the best!

[@19Mysteriosa19]

That was awesome! She took it so seriously it was truly worthy of an award! I rarely laugh as much as I did at this video.

[@estellecollins2773]

Emma is really beautiful, I love the way she speaks and just says oright to anything ellen asks her

[@sarahhill2413]

Estelle Collins she just speaks properly with Queens English, like Julie Andrews, Emily Blunt and normal people like me and many people in London and Hertfordshire

[@alexadraalberti3868]

+Sarah Hill I have a british accent too

[@danielwong328]

+Sarah Hill I've always wanted to know why accents can be so divided in one city-London...I mean there are people with Cockney accent and people with more proper accent like Carey Mulligan.

[@sarahhill2413]

Very few people speak properly is the jist here!

[@nergee]

*hands Emma Thompson another Academy Award*

[@jilliandatan2565]

I CAN'T DO IT! LMAO!!

[@jennhoff03]

What a great sport Emma Thompson is! She could have easily said "quack," but she got out of her seat and dipped her head down to the ground. How great is that?!

[@Widdekuu91]

+Jenn Hoff Not to mention, she dipped her fingers in her water, to 'splash' it up.

[@xdiorix]

Oh sweet mercy, I am actually CRYING with laughter. Everything hurts--my cheeks, my throat, my chest, oh lord. I love her so much.

[@katynicol9683]

So hilarious... the woodpecker was fantastic😂 love you Ellen and Emma. 🙌

[@tomakpote]

*tries animal noises*...oh, OINK, OINK!

[@alexthepensmith6101]

Emma Thompson is my spirit animal 😂😂😂

[@TheBourbonStreet]

She's amazing, just amazing. Watched it over and over again

[@xxForgottenx]

When she was acting and doing those animal noises, she reminded me of Sybill Trelawney. :D

[@Mia_M]

Her owl impression had me dying though because there are owls in HP

[@michelsam2274]

Geek fact: Emma Thompson was last on Ellen exactly five years ago: November 12, 2008 along with Dido and Paris Hilton. She's a genuinely funny woman and has a great chemistry with Ellen!

[@ulodetero]

She was also in an episode of Ellen's sitcom in 1997: Ellen - Season 5 Episode 8 - Emma

[@nergee]

"Oh--OINK OINK. Jesus!"

[@thatissofetch5508]

I love how she’s really trying her best and got the animal noise accurately what a queen

[@AMinnie]

This is the funniest shit I've seen in so long OMG I was dying

[@xXRickiKikiXx]

WTF 2:16 "Well that kangldudlduld" "A Rooster!"

[@n.t.6609]

Kaspy Cockadoodldo is the typpical sound for a rooster in Englsh speaking countries :)

[@sofiav7392]

LOL, I accidentally clicked on this and I was not expecting it to be so funny!! I laughed the whole time!

[@Dream1ng]

She's my spirit animal.

[@kit.h94]

I am dying from laughter. That was hilarious. I wonder why for some of them, she was just like "Oh, I can't be bothered with this one" and then made the human version of what the animal sounded like, and then for others she went through such a roundabout way of doing it.

[@MicheleCantwell]

Anytime and everytime I'm depressed or sad.... this video fixes EVERYTHING!!!

[@kurbypinky608]

Oh Lord! When The crow pic came up I was yelling so loud " CAW, MISS EMMA, CAW!!!" Lol and then the owl?!? Man, I Love Emma Thompson!

[@whatidontthinkso]

Definitely one of the best actresses ever! Could not stop laughing!

[@natashafieldhouse1935]

Funniest interview I seen in ages. Love Emma and Ellen, Great Combo. They are moth mad.

[@clairebacchi6398]

Emma is a riot. Just love her humor. I'd give her on a scale of 1 to 10, and 10 being the highest a 4 on animal impersonations, but as an actress a 10!

[@NoellaUsborne]

She is such a legend.

[@19BlueOcean95]

Note to self, don't eat cereal when watching this... it will go everywhere loool :D

[@zhnora]

she is so lovely and into the game! she wants to make genuine noises and not just common 'oink-oink' crap. love her!

[@Seethewaymcs]

My goodness I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. My stomach hurt, my throat hurt, I just about fell down it was so funny :D

[@LauraWalker86]

That made me laugh so hard. The most committed animal impressions I have ever seen in my life!!! I love Emma Thompson! :)

[@nergee]

Acting talents put to good use.

[@rcirne]

This is surely and of the best games Ellen's ever played! I saw it three times and can't stop laughing!

[@AshOoolala]

Hilarious to the max!! This is what I like. An academy award winning actress trying her very best to act out animals instead of the obvious kill like oink oink or quack quack. Gotta love Emma!!

[@LunarPriestess]

I swear when she was impersonating the owl at first, I thought she was trying to do a Professor Trelawney impression

[@jawhitney25]

She is the absolute greatest. Only Emma Thompson could get away with being her normal hilarious/raunchy/foul-mouthed/elegant/gorgeous/stunning self. What a woman!

[@irairabella]

I was waiting for a fox the whole time but it was hilarious, even without it

[@miguerianpt]

Oh dear, this always leaves me in tears 🤣 one of the absolute best moments on the show ❤️

[@30catdog]

She made the game harder than it needed to be XD

[@VladSicoe]

😂😂😂😂😂 oink! Oink! She's brilliant!!

[@haris7089]

a crow goes kaw- kaw!

[@MsMesem]

She is not very good at this at all. I'd guess she never spends much time around farming places and people.

[@disposablefreedom]

I love this woman, she would be welcome to party at my house anytime.. XD

[@iac86]

She's awesome. Had quite the laugh. Brilliantly humble woman :)

[@taisli1]

omg! I was sitting in the library and had to try not laugh, that was soo difficult ^^

[@domd7907]

Dude I knew I'm gonna be obsessed w this interview the first ten seconds 😂😂😂❤️❤️😭

[@louverndictado3933]

[@purdudan]

I was waiting for the fox.

[@nursetre1]

Wow Emma Thompson is SO professional! I just admire her a ton and I have loved her in everything I have seen. My favorite is Love Actually. Love how she gives 100% on animal sounds.

[@AMinnie]

The noise she was making for pig sounded like the noises the zombie's made in World War Z lmao

[@meganmartin6792]

Emma is so funny she made my day with the duck impression!

This was hilarious. Common animal noises and she doesn't know them so well. But that was awesome
