Jude Law Takes The Colbert Questionert

[@alexissheridan6115]

He seems delightful. Cats? Tomatoes? Marvin Gaye? Being appalled by modern fascism? Yes to all of this.

[@gentlehorst]

You seem to be in the category ordering: More of the same, please ☺. Roman Holiday or The Holiday with him (and the featured Kate Winslet today)?

[@EXPATditions]

oh get over it, turn on the news!

[@phdt12]

Gosh, I didn’t know I could appreciate Jude Law more than I already did. Seems like a lovely man. Petrichor is my favorite smell as well.

[@aninewforest]

I just stepped inside from my fragrant rainy garden today and thought, What was that word?? A few hours later watching this, I anticipated he'd say that. Thanks. Now I know.

[@s3cr3tsquar333]

you skipped what is the WORST smell! Jude Law is not fully known!

[@gentlehorst]

Good remark. They twirk the answers sometimes. Could be the answers were ... ahem or not wanted but then again, no lie detector after?!

[@igorschmidlapp6987]

Glad that I wasn't the only one who caught that. That needs to be Stephen's first question on Jude Law's next appearance as soon as he sits down. No warning or preamble.

[@scottieapplseed]

He gave the best answers so far, and also the most correct description of why the window seat.

[@rotepixel]

He seemed to be prepared as he never took time to think.

[@orbitaljunkie]

his answers were about as interesting as any person off the street would have

[@reneeq3122]

Ryan Reynolds best answers ever. This is pretty goo though.

[@notbraindead7298]

I’ve always been a fan of Jude Law, now I like him even more.

[@thevagrantgaming]

I know someone who has worked on the crew for two projects with Jude. I’ve heard he is one of the absolute best in the business to work for and that he’s really genuinely a very kind person. They said he’s the kind of person that is always genuinely interested in what everyone he interacts with is doing and mentioned how he would regularly ask people on the crew how they or family members are doing.

[@nt7863]

I guarantee they all end up pregnant

[@UzairW]

Damn! Wasn't expecting such simple yet profound answers to some of the questions. Never knew Jude Law was so articulate and cerebral, then again never really saw many interviews of him.

[@sarahogawa5408]

He definitely studied other people’s answers.

[@kacbaam]

"Fascist homo sapiens" is gold 🎉❤

Is that what he said?! I heard freshest homo sapiens ... as in, babies which makes total sense, those little buggers are scary

[@kristaconley578]

Inner City Blues. Fantastic, smart, choice. Lovely, thoughtful guy.

[@christicostigan]

I always liked him and his work and this confirmed my impressions.

[@severance1961]

What a very likable guy, and a great actor.

[@clt36999able]

If anyone is curious and hasn't figured it out yet from previous interviews the number Stephen is thinking of is 3. He's stated that it's always the same number and when someone has guessed 3, which has happened at least twice that I've noticed, it's the only time he doesn't say incorrect. Instead he reply's "Interesting." I love this segment it's one of my favorites the show does but I do hope someday the guest also realizes this and calls him out! It would be epically hilarious!

[@kcjd8659]

It’s almost The Holiday season, and by that I mean watching The Holiday at least once a week from Thanksgiving to New Year.

[@fong03]

He is still so damn charming! That man was on my wall all throughout college. I also really, really loved the answers to some of those questions. (What happens when we die, scariest animal, why the window seat). I didn't think I could like the man more, but yet here we are!

[@ryant1090]

Loved him in Gattaca. His character was so flawed and brings tears to my eyes if I'm in the right mood. Jude seems like a good dude.

[@user-dn4fu8uy2q]

This is really good, what a charmer

[@sparkythancztwise]

those were pretty great 5 words too Lots of celebs find 5 great words to offer on that prompt, but that and the sincerity of his sandwich make me like him more than I already did. Lucky guy, fruitful fit in career, happy marriage and family, sounds like. Happy for him.

[@kellyharrison5184]

Lovely. I've been a big fan ever since he first showed up on the big screen. He never disappoints.

[@kellywhitaker3483]

He is charming. And it gets him into all kinds of trouble.

[@62pianoguy]

I realize you probably didn't mean it quite this way, but this reminds me a bit of Marlene Dietrich's defense in the song "Falling in Love Again": "Men cluster to me like moths around a flame...and if their wings burn, I know I'm not to blame."

LOL, I agree with Jude for "favorite smell". The smell of damp earth. It's the smell that hits you when you open the door to head outside right after it has stopped raining, or you step inside a conservatory filled with tropical plants.

Went and looked up Marvin Gaye's "Inner City Blues" as I wasn't familiar with it and it's a jam

[@chriswagland2527]

OK, love this man!!

[@Steveriknows]

The number he's thinking of is 3. A couple people have guessed it and he immediately went to the next question without saying no.

[@Rachel-sv9pq]

Stephen dodged the question about whether anybody has guessed the number but he never tells people who guess "3" that they're wrong.

Wait, hold on, what about his least favorite smell? And I think the number Stephen’s been thinking of this whole time has been 3.

3 is the only one he didn't say no to, and he didn't answer Jude when he asked if anyone had ever guessed.

The first hollywood color movie i ever saw was gone with the wind. Way back 1968. That too i had to get the tickets by bribe. And the first 3D in Disney in LA. The first late night talk show in NY around 1985. The first wide screen VR in San Francisco around 1986. Tech now I see most of them on the Android now even the late night show.😮 The first ever best movie was bo Derek in blue lagoon. And the latest best was so long near far wherever you are.
