An hour with Jeff Goldblum

December 7, 2022 3:48 PM

Ari Melber sits down with Jeff Goldblum for a discussion from just a few days ago about his career that also touches on a zillion other topics, as you would expect from talking to Jeff. It's a fun and fluffy interview that might also contain some insights into the impenetrable Goldblum.

There are two famous actors whose style is so distinct that I can use it as a stage direction. If I say, “Shatner it down a notch” or “Goldblum it up a level,” everybody knows exactly what I mean.

Please I would like a Jeff Goldblum Q in some uncoming Star Trek episode and/or series.

Yes, Goldblum is a treasure. I'm just trying to picture him as a high school student in 1967 in Pittsburgh.

Here's a still quite young-looking Goldblum in Annie Hall, 10 years later.

I remember reading a story a few years ago in the back of an issue of Glitterbomb about how he had an intern fired for not putting his eggs on a separate plate at breakfast. That he was smiling and funny and Goldblum-y the whole time, then promptly walked up to the director and told them to get rid of her.
