Will Ferrell Crashes Andy Richter’s Jimmy Kimmel Interview as Buddy the Elf: ‘Boring!’
"Who even are you?" Ferrell asks Richter, his "Elf" co-star The post Will Ferrell Crashes Andy Richter’s Jimmy Kimmel Interview as Buddy the Elf: ‘Boring!’ appeared first on TheWrap .
On Monday night, Andy Richter made a stop on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" to promote his new book, "Elf Unwrapped." However, he was quickly overshadowed when Will Ferrell took the spotlight, declaring the interview "boring!" The book provides an oral history of the making of the 2003 film "Elf," based on memories shared by Richter and others involved in the production.
Kimmel attempted to spin the situation as Buddy the Elf making a surprise appearance, but Ferrell corrected him, stating that he was not Buddy the Elf, but rather "Will Ferrell from the 'Land of the Lost' movie." Ferrell went on to criticize Richter, questioning his identity and suggesting that he was someone else entirely, like Andy Richter from the movie "New York Minute."
The two comedians engaged in a friendly banter, with Ferrell reminding Richter that he appeared in the film "Elf" as one of the employees of James Caan's publishing executive Walter Hobbs. He also pointed out that he wrote a book called "My Years Sitting Next to Conan O'Brien: The Will Ferrell Story," suggesting that Richter's book might not be as entertaining.
Richter responded by pointing out that he spent more time sitting next to Conan O'Brien than Ferrell did working on "Elf."
