Brie Larson really wanted to be in Cats.
On Wednesday, she used her guest host monologue on Jimmy Kimmel Live to plea to the filmmakers behind the upcoming Broadway musical movie adaption for a task.
"The most vital question is, how the hell am I not during this movie?" she asked the audience. "I mean, they asked literally everyone else in Hollywood: Taylor Swift, Idris Elba, Jason frickin' Derulo. I mean, i would like in!"
Acknowledging that she doesn't have much time before the film's release on Friday, Brie did her best to bargain with the Cats team for a spot in its star-studded cast. "I'll do whatever it takes," she continued. "I'll slurp milk from a bowl. I'll grind to a halt on top of the fridge. I'll put a dead bird in your slipper. i will be able to have babies under your porch. Look, we've 48 hours to urge me into this movie, and that i am not getting to rest until i'm during a damn leotard chasing a laser pointer with Dame Judi Dench."Still on the subject of Cats, the Captain Marvel star joked that the planet isn't ready for director Tom Hooper's feline film production, calling it "the big story of the day," a "major moment in American history and something that's "dividing us like never before."
"I do not believe that we as a nation are fully prepared," she said. "This movie goes to shake us to our core. I mean…this movie seems like a dream you'd have if you smoked meth during a Petco. and that i know that I'm getting to love every second of it, because I even have always been a sucker for movies supported musicals supported poems supported house pets. " After expressing her excitement over Cats, Brie spread holiday cheer with an ingenious song from Jimmy Kimmel Live's All-Inclusive Nondenominational Merriment Choir and a hilarious pitch for "Brie during a Tree," which is that the Avengers: Endgame star's unapologetic version of Elf on a Shelf.
Her guest host "preparations" definitely paid off. On Tuesday, she crashed host Jimmy Kimmel's monologue to research him before her Wednesday night duties."Oh, I just—I'm researching. I take my roles very seriously," she told Jimmy after he noticed her mirroring his gestures. "Like for Captain Marvel, I actually had myself blasted with massive amounts of radiation from a magic rock."
