Hi, Im Golden Globe nominee Simon Helberg.
Nice to meet you.
Well, they always do that in previews!
Wouldnt that be embarrassing if you were at a restaurant and they yelled that out?
That would be horrible.
Remind me never to do that.
How did you hear about your nomination?
I got a text, in a very sort of unglamorous moment.
So I was filled with many things, joy being one of them, but it was absurd.
[Laughs]
And this morning, has it just been surreal, or what?
How are you feeling?
The more people that are moved or affected by it, the happier it makes me feel.
So I guess this is the symbol of that.
This movie is so much fun, I really enjoyed it.
Yeah, its important.
You said making the movie was a bucket list moment for you in a lot of ways.
Can you say what some of those are?
Its something Ive always loved about his movies.
And then, of course, theres Meryl Streep.
So it was almost actually too many bucket list moments.
I had quite an experience on this and I came away having worked with my heroes.
It was just a true joy.
And you, Meryl, and Hugh were all nominated!
Its really rewarding to have everybody get their due.
Its such a good movie and I couldnt be more proud.
Have you called anybody, or heard from yourBig Bang Theorycostars?
[Laughs] We are very supportive of each other.
So, yes a lot of emojis.
I dont even know how to access all those emojis!
Thats always a good grounding moment.
