Elf might remain one of the biggest movies of the holiday season, but one person who doesn’t appear to be in a jolly mood is Will Ferrell, judging from his recent surprise appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Earlier this week, Elf star Andy Richter appeared on the late night show to promote his tell-all book, Elf Unwrapped: Behind the Scenes of a Modern Christmas Classic, about the making of the holiday classic.
As he spoke about his experiences both starring in the movie and writing the new book, Richter’s interview was interrupted by Will Ferrell, who donned his Buddy the Elf apparel while smoking a cigarette and drinking a beer in the audience.
“Boring,” Ferrell started by yelling from the crowd, before he was recognized by Kimmel and Richter. “I’m not Buddy the Elf, you fop doodle. I’m Will Ferrell from the Land of the Lost movie. I had some elective surgery on my undercarriage this morning [and] the doc said no zippers.”
As the banter continued, Ferrell had trouble recognized Richter, playfully ribbing him about his role in the film and his new book.
“I thought you were a Make-a-Wish kid,” Ferrell told Richter. “Wait, I remember now. You were in Elf! You played the guy who came up with bad ideas for unpopular books and now you wrote one!”
Doubling down on his jokes at Richter’s expense, Ferrell then pulled out a copy of his own book, My Years Sitting Next to Conan O’Brien: The Will Ferrell Story, referencing Richter’s decades-long run as O’Brien’s late-night TV sidekick.
“I spent more time sitting next to Conan than you did working on Elf,” Ferrell said.
As for how exactly he ended up in the audience, Ferrell told Kimmel and Richter that he stumbled in from the street in the hopes of seeing Bill Murray, who was the first guest of the night to appear on the talk show.
“I was outside working Hollywood Boulevard, making a little extra coin, and I heard Bill Murray was on,” he shared. After learning that Murray had left, Ferrell rose from the crowd and ran backstage, hoping to catch him.
