Emma jokingly says Willem is an alien, praising her Poor Things co-star’s otherworldly talent
Oscar-winning actress Emma Stone thinks her Poor Things and Kinds of Kindness co-star Willem Dafoe is an alien. Asked on the Late Show which celebrity she thinks is most likely to be an alien secretly posing as a human, Stone, who plays a woman kidnapped by two men who suspect she is an extra-terrestrial
in new movie Bugonia, said: “Willem Dafoe. Hundred percent.” To which, host Stephen Colbert said: “You did not have to think about that very long.” Stone said Dafoe was an obvious choice.
She said: “It’s so simple. I mean, don’t you - of course. If it was like, Willem Dafoe’s actually an alien everyone would be like, ‘Yeah! Obviously. And a great one!’ Like, if they’re all like Willem, bring ‘em on! Land upon Earth, please!” Colbert replied: “He’s an alien in a very well-fitted man suit.” Stone added: “My favourite alien.”
