Josh Brolin is in on the joke. During his opening monologue on the March 9 episode of “Saturday Night Live,” the “Dune 2” actor gushed about his “super creepy poem” about Timothée Chalamet.
“I don’t think it’s scary, but you be the judge,” he told the audience before reading part of the poem that appeared in his coffee table book “Dune: Exposure.”
For context, one poem reads, “The way you hold my gaze/I fear my age. Because there’s something in me that tells me/You’re going to give me something and/For now/I’m not sure/It’ll be something/Something/I want anymore.”
Brolin then clarified the matter, saying, “No, I don’t want to sleep with her, but that’s what I do – I write poems about everyone I work with. This week, I wrote Kenan (Thompson) “Wrote a poem about,” he said, before reading a few lines about Thompson’s “aged face” and “sultry eyes.”
At the end of his monologue, the actor revealed that he has been cold dipping for 20 years, and compared the difficulty of it to hosting “Saturday Night Live.” With that, he took off his suit jacket, button-down, and slacks and jumped into the ice bath in his socks and underwear. Needless to say, the crowd applauded.
In keeping with the theme, apparently, the first play Too This time Brolin was shown removing to his underwear for a robbery sketch with Heidi Gardner.
