00:12 Dude, we can finally talk about Red, White, and Royal Blue.

00:14 - We can talk about it.

00:15 - It's all you want.

00:16 - Did your parents send you to snobbery school

00:18 or does looking down on people just come naturally to you?

00:24 - How exciting was it for you to see all the love

00:27 from the fans and all the TikTok edits,

00:28 even though you couldn't talk about it?

00:29 - It was insane.

00:31 I mean, 'cause I went to Fashion Week in September

00:36 and it was nonstop.

00:38 Like, people waiting outside of my hotel.

00:40 Everyone had their books.

00:41 Everyone was like ready to get a signature.

01:10 - There's so much.

01:11 Casey McQuiston has, I mean, just let's go inside her brain

01:14 and see what she can come up with.

01:15 - Well, I love it 'cause you know,

01:16 you've stripped down and bared yourself

01:18 for a few roles at this point.

01:20 So are you getting more comfortable

01:21 showing more skin on screen?

01:22 - Yeah, yeah.

01:23 I feel like it's like a requirement now.

01:24 It's like you hit a certain age

01:26 and you're like, all right, just like strip.

01:27 - We're gonna need you to take your shirt off.

01:29 - Yeah, and I mean, I know that Matthew talked about it

01:31 on a podcast, which was not cool, but you know.

01:35 - About looking maybe too hairy?

01:36 - A little too hairy, yeah, yeah.

01:38 - So you'll just have to like be prepared

01:39 for the next one, right?

01:40 - Yeah, yeah.

01:41 I'm happy in the naturalness of Taylor.

01:44 - I love it.

01:45 Hey, you know what?

01:46 People are now trying to cast you

01:47 as the next Flynn Rider in a live action "Tangled."

01:50 If you got that call, is that something you'd be open to?

01:52 - Oh, definitely.

01:53 - Yeah?

01:53 - Yeah, yeah.

01:54 Sabrina called me about it.

01:55 I watched it on the Twitter.

01:56 - Right here in front?

01:57 - Okay, yeah.

01:58 - Verse went crazy.

01:58 (sighs)

02:00 Alone at last.

02:11 of genre, you know, character.

02:14 - I'm gonna manifest that one for you.

02:15 I'm asking all the guys tonight,

02:17 how often do you think about the Roman Empire?

02:19 (laughs)

02:21 - Every so often.

02:22 - Okay.

02:23 - Every so often.

02:24 - I'll take that.

02:25 - Everything, yeah.

02:26 And you're slaying the fashion game, too, by the way.

02:26 - Oh, thank you.

02:27 - You really are, yeah.

02:28 - I think Balenciaga tonight.

02:29 - Don't hurt him.

02:30 - Yes. - All right.
