dan: and i'm >> dicky: from hollywood -- it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- tiffany haddish -- david chase -- and music from imagine dragons. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: appreciate, thank you. very nice. hi, there. thank you. [ cheers and applause ] hi, there. i'm jimmy. i used to be the host of the show. i'm back. well, thank you, i appreciate that. [ cheers and applause ] thank you for watching. thank you for being here. you know, i have to say, when i

walk into a room at home, nobody claps. [ laughter ] there's no clapping. it's good to be back. i've been on vacation since the end of june. you know when i left, i assumed things would be back to normal when i got back. i thought we'd have a full audience with no masks. i was ready to get back to french kissing the guests. [ laughter ] and here we are, masks, half an audience. i leave you people alone for two months, you start taking horse worm medicine? [ laughter ] what a weird summer. britney is free, and every woman in the state of texas is not. [ laughter and moans ] this was the second year i took the summer off. it wasn't a secret. we announced it. i had guest hosts lined up. and yet, people still were confused. these are comments from youtube, a fraction of the many expressions of concern. "starting to get worried. where's jimmy?" "seriously though, where the hell did jimmy go?" "jimmy still in rehab?" [ laughter ] "is jimmy kimmel on secret suspension?

seems too long for vacation." "does kimmel have covid?" "is jimmy alive? i feel like i haven't seen him for a long time." "jimmy is dead, right?" [ laughter ] jimmy is not dead. unless we're all dead. in which case, maybe we're all in hell, i don't know. [ laughter ] all i know is it's good to be wearing makeup again. [ cheers and applause ] i want to ask one thing. the hardest part of being at home while the show was still going on was watching guillermo cheat on me with all the other hosts. [ laughter ] like, great show, great show. you seemed to be having a lot of fun. >> guillermo: jimmy, listen, it i love you. [ audience aw wchaww'ing ] >> jimmy: i wish i could believe anything you say. [ laughter ] >> guillermo: no, it is true! >> jimmy: now i know what it feels like to be on "the bachelor" watching your fiancee

take four people to the fantasy suite. i was starting to wonder if you were here for the right reasons. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: do you like our new set? we had some work done over the summer. the big thing is we added a chandelier. that way, when the big one hits, the band dies instantly. liberace-style. >> cleto: the only way to go. >> jimmy: before i went away for vacation i said, i'm not coming back until i get a chandelier, dammit. [ laughter ] i hope you all had a relaxing labor day. this was not a fun weekend, covid-wise. the number of new cases is up more than 300% from a year ago. dr. fauci says that if hospitals get any more overcrowded, they're going to have to make some "very tough choices" about who gets an icu bed. i don't know. the choices don't seem so tough to me. vaccinated person having a heart attack? come on in. unvaccinated guy who gobbled horse goo? rest in peace, wheezy. [ cheers and applause ] we've still got a lot of pandimwits out there. people are still taking this ivermectin. this poison. poison control centers across

the country have seen a spike in calls from people taking livestock medicine to fight the coronavirus, but they won't take the vaccine, which is crazy. you're a vegan, no, i don't want a hamburger, give me that can of alpo instead. [ laughter ] one of the reasons these sea biscuits are opting for ivermectin is because they don't trust "big pharma," which is fine, i guess. except for the fact that ivermectin is made by merck, which is the fourth largest pharmaceutical company in the world. [ laughter ] and even merck is telling people to cut it out. they released a statement saying ivermectin has "no scientific basis for potential therapeutic effect against covid, there's "no meaningful evidence for clinical activity or clinical efficacy in patients with covid-19 disease." and there is "a concerning lack of safety data in the majority of studies." listen. if a pharmaceutical company says "please don't take the drug we're selling," you should probably listen to them. [ laughter ] or just go with a tiktok posted by a disgraced veterinarian instead. [ laughter ] meanwhile, these poor horses are

like, "hey, i have worms. i need that stuff. there are worms in my butt." [ laughter ] ivermectin did get a big endorsement over the weekend from one of america's top medical minds. none other than sandy hook denier slash internet lunatic alex jones. >> you know what this is? ivermectin. these are the tabloid steroids. let me show you. see this? see this, fauci? see this bill gates? i'm going to kill those, you bastard murderer. you son of a bitch, you [ bleep ] demon. you think i'm easy to kill? think i will roll over to your crap? no. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i've never seen someone that mad drink a topo chico before. [ laughter ] [ applause ] that kind of came out of nowhere. who would have guessed he'd be washing it down with that?

i would have thought maybe some kind of nacho-flavored bang energy drink. nope. give me a topo chico. i'm not the only one back at work. jill biden returned to the classroom today after more than a year of teaching remotely. dr. biden is an english professor at northern virginia community college. believe it or not, she is the first first lady in history to have a full-time job while living in the white house. meanwhile, former first lady melania trump just went back to her old job as america's number one female lou bega impersonator. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] that's melania number 5. the other 4 escaped. you think we'll ever see her again? america's wealthiest space cowboy has a new passion project. jeff bezos has reportedly invested in a company that intends to reverse the human aging process. altos labs has been luring top professors away from major universities, paying them big bucks to make sure jeff bezos stays in his amazon prime forever.

this is a lex luthor move, right? [ laughter ] if lex luthor sold toothpaste and huggies, this would be him. [ laughter ] [ applause ] jeff bezos is 57. right now he's at the exact halfway point between dr. frankenstein and mr. clean. [ laughter ] humanity will burn to the ground while jeff bezos zips around in his rocketship with a luscious mop top of hair, and a very firm, 19-year-old erection. [ laughter ] [ applause ] and if the anti-aging project fails, bezos will go to his fallback plan, paying everyone on earth a million bucks to pretend he's 25. [ laughter ] and one more thing. i was fortunate to have many great and very talented friends, acquaintances, even some strangers, filling in for me while i was gone. and i am grateful to them for doing my job while i was white-knuckling it behind the wheel of an rv with two kids in

the back, i really am. and not only did they fill this spot, before they left each of them was kind enough to share his or her fondest memory of their time here at the show. i have not seen this yet. it will be a surprise for all of guest hosts with their thoughts on what they will miss most about hosting this show. >> it's "jimmy kimmel live"! >> i'm going to miss stealing jimmy's weed gummies, then later realizing they're fiber gummies. i wasn't high but i was regular as hell. >> i'll miss the confused looks on the staff faces when i introduced myself as oprah. >> i miss being on a show where i don't have the hardest accent to understand. >> i agree with mr. niall horans completely. >> i'm going to miss accidentally taking a sip out of guillermo's coffee mug and being drunk for four days. >> i'll miss craft services. that was my first time back on set before the pandemic, and i forgot how much i love just running my hands through a giant

communal bowl of goldfish crackers. ahhh! ahhh! ahhh! i mean, the funny thing is, i don't even like goldfish. >> i will miss sitting down with some of the sharpest writers in hollywood and getting to tell them to their face they're not funny and they'll never work in this town again. >> i'm miss sleeping in jimmy's california king-sized bed, which i know guest hosts aren't supposed to sleep at jimmy's house, but child, i don't give a [ bleep ]. >> what do i miss? hm, i was only here for a day. i didn't really have time to get attached. i mean, i love what we had, but let's not get too clingy about it, all right? >> i will miss the people working in standards and practices who explained to me so patiently why i couldn't say, mother [ bleep ], [ bleep ], [ bleep ] animal on the air.

even though i really, really wanted to, mother [ bleep ]. >> i'm going to miss the guy who puts on my microphone. we had so many great talks. i'll never forget you, jeff. >> it's brian. >> whatever. >> i'm going to miss this. and this. crazy, right? mm, it's like magic here. >> i won't miss anything. because i know jimmy's going to take another hiatus in three weeks and call me to fill in. you lazy son of a bitch. you don't think i got other [ bleep ] to do? >> i'll miss whatever this is. jimmy keeps it under his desk, and the staff says that he uses it during commercial breaks. it's like, i don't know, what, does it take your blood pressure? [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: yeah. yes. it's for your heart, okay? well, we've got one heck of a

[ cheers and applause ] you gonna get humped. >> jimmy: in other words, don't worry about me. >> it's about the hump. i don't care if they all looking, you all watch how i hump, okay?

[ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: very good -- i'm excited to have you here. i think of you as a genius, do you agree with that assessment? >> of course. [ laughter ] no. >> jimmy: i demanded to get a screening of this movie before you came out here. i love "the soprano" as everybody loved "the sopranos," obviously. [ cheers and applause ] i really loved it, you know. i will tell you, i'm very pleased to report that anybody

who loves "the sopranos" is going to be ecstatic about this particular movie. >> good. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i didn't know how much you were going to get into it. but you really got into it. and i'm worried about revealing too much, so i'm going to ret you do that, reveal as much as you feel is appropriate to reveal. >> okay. >> jimmy: explain what the movie is about and, if you can, who's in it. >> the movie is about -- really about a guy named dicky molisanti, some of you have heard about him, christopher voltisanti's father. little tony, when tony was young, his mentor. >> jimmy: moltisanti means "many saints." >> right. >> jimmy: "the many saints of newark." there is a young tony soprano, everybody knows that, we can say that. i think everybody knows james

gandolfini's son, michael, is one of the two actors who plays young tony. >> right. >> jimmy: and it's not just -- >> william lud big is the other. >> jimmy: william ludwig plays him as a young boy. the bulk of it is gandolfini's son, who is -- he looks like him, but he really sounds like him. i mean -- do you agree with that? >> no. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: you don't. i do, i -- >> it never struck me, no. what he does is move like him. the thing with the shoulders. he does those little tics that are just like -- >> jimmy: with all due respect, i'm going to tell you you're wrong, he does sound like him. [ laughter ] >> it's your show. >> jimmy: i think you might be too close to it. i mean, the whole movie i'm going, he sounds just like him! >> were you really? jim was always like that wasn't he? >> jimmy: he's got a little bit of a slur there. >> oh, yeah. >> jimmy: and it really -- >> that's true. >> jimmy: it really sells it. my wife, my mother's italian,

and my wife the whole time is saying, "this is like every one of your family parties, this movie." except for the murders, there are rarely murders. [ laughter ] aunt chippy's gotten close, but rarely are there murders. [ applause ] >> some of the parties. >> jimmy: the names like moltisanti, atmosphere all the names from "the sopranos." italian names, there's something kind of funny about them, right? >> yeah, i guess so. they're musical, they're -- they're good. they're enjoyable to say or something. >> jimmy: these are names that you took from your past, from real people that you knew? >> yes, sopranos, people i went to high school with. >> jimmy: did they like being included in the show? >> i never heard from lau[ laughter ] >> jimmy: never heard from them? >> let's keep that it way. >> jimmy: did she like that? >> i never heard from her. her husband went crazy. he was out of his mind.

>> jimmy: the pork store, satriali. >> the pork store. it was good, michael imperioli pronounced it the way italian-americans do, "sat-ree-yals." i love the way that was changing. >> jimmy: my grandfather, nunzio gain r gabrielo michael gandolfini was a little boy when you were shooting? >> yeah, he was. he was born during the beginning of the show. first year, i think. second year. i only knew him as maybe that -- 10 at the most. i remember walking on a path to the location. and he and his father came along. father saw me, "hello, satan." and kept going.

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: was that his loving nickname for you? >> that, and he called all the writers vampires. because we would steal from their -- from the actors' real lives. we never stole anything from him. but we stole a lot from tony sirrico, i guess that's what he was talking about. >> jimmy: interesting. a lot of that show and even scenes from this movie are based, i understand it, on your personal life, on your relationship with your mother? >> yeah, whole show was based on that. >> jimmy: who famously became the model for tony's mother, olivia. and also there's a scene, and again, i hope i'm not revealing too much. there's a scene where young tony soprano is in the office with his guidance counselor. >> right. i was in the guidance counselor's office a lot. but i think what you're referring to is when the guidance counselor talks to his mother. and recounts something that tony told her.

>> jimmy: right. >> about this really warm night between them, very nice, when he was a little kid. that happened to me. my father was painting in the living room, family living room. my mother read me this book. and she was very sweet and nice. it was blowing storms. she was not like that often, so that's why that's in the movie. >> jimmy: interesting. >> it wasn't that she was a mean person, she just wasn't affectionate. >> jimmy: we have a clip from the movie. do you want to set this up? is this something that needs set up? >> well, yeah. it's -- it takes place -- there's a character named harold who worked for nicky moltisanti as a numbers runner. now he's going off on his own. he's been in jail for murder. no, he escapes for murder. and tony and his nephew and his girlfriend and the nephew's friend come into the store. >> jimmy: here's a clip from "the many saints of newark."

>> how's it going, harold? >> harold. >> how you doing, son? >> taking my nephew to the yankees game. something funny back here? >> sorry, little dick. no, really, i'm sorry! >> [ bleep ]. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: there it is. the premiere of the movie is going to be held at tribeca film festival. >> it is. >> jimmy: beginning of october. >> yeah, we're going to open the festival. >> jimmy: opening the festival. robert de niro is introducing the film. >> yeah. >> jimmy: is that a big deal? >> a big huge deal. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i have to say, i really wish i had seen -- i'm going to go see it again in the theater. i want to see it with a big group of "sopranos" fans. >> i love to be honest with you, it makes a big difference. and just -- it's just -- it's a whole different experience in a theater than it is on tv. >> jimmy: i think people will understand, when they see it, why it is -- it seems like a

communal experience. >> you're right. because people -- what i'm afraid of, people will say, oh, i saw "the sopranos" on tv, it looked okay, so i'll watch it here. >> jimmy: you'll get when it you see it? >> right. >> jimmy: thank you for being here, it's great to have you. david chase, everybody.
