-Our first guest tonight is a Golden Globe-winning
and Emmy-nominated actress you know from "Alias"
and such films as "13 Going On 30"
and "Dallas Buyers Club."
She stars in the action-packed film "Peppermint,"
which is in theaters tomorrow. Let's take a look.
-Hurts doesn't it?
Knowing that it's all over
and there's nothing you can do about it.
-[ Breathing heavily ]
You didn't serve justice, Your Honor.
I will. -[ Muffled shouting ]
-Please welcome back to the show our friend
Jennifer Garner, everyone!
[ Cheers and applause ]
♪♪
♪♪
How are you? -Great!
-Happy to have you here. -I'm so happy to be here.
-That's why -- I have to say, that's why
it's so helpful to have a clip from a movie.
Because I think if you heard there was a film
called "peppermint," you wouldn't naturally
think it would be a scene like that.
-♪ Da da da da, da da ♪ No.
-Yes, this is a very -- -Not that.
-And I do want to talk about the film,
but first, I want congratulate you.
You got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Congratulations. -I did!
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Can you stand it? I kind of can't believe it.
I saw, you know, Burt Reynolds today.
-Yes. Rest in peace. -Wonderful -- Rest in peace.
And I saw him. And I thought, "Oh, my gosh.
I have a star like he does." -Yeah.
-I mean, that's like -- It's still there.
It's still there right now while we're talking.
-It's -- Yeah. That's not just like --
-Unless they've jackhammered it out...
-I think your safe. -...'cause they do that now.
-They do every now and then jackhammer one out.
But I think you're in the safe zone.
-We'll see today. -Whole family come?
-The whole family came. There were a lot of us.
Oh, my gosh. -That's a beautiful photo.
Look how proud everybody looks. -Oh, yeah.
My sister, Melissa, my sister, Susannah,
my nieces and nephews, brothers-in-law...
-That's great. -...kids, parents, mom and dad.
-And then you had Steve Carell, Bryan Cranston, Judy Greer
all came to make speeches. -That was so meaningful.
The kind of weird mix of my family,
who are never at Hollywood things,
and then three of my dear friends speak about me.
It was just -- It was really cool.
-It's really cool.
It's such an amazing thing while also just being on the street.
-Yes, exactly! [ Laughter ]
-Yeah. -With gum on it.
-Yeah. -Anyway, do you have one?
-I don't. -Oh, shoot.
[ Laughter ]
-That's one of those things -- -Oh, that's awkward.
-I'm glad we brought it up, though.
-I am, too. -And again --
-I am, too. -You know what?
-I do.
-I'm so happy for you, I don't even need one.
[ Laughter and applause ]
That's my star? You're my star?
So, obviously, this is a --
You are a vengeful mother in this film.
-Yes. -You are --
Some bad things have happened to your family,
and you're taking it out on the people.
-So angry. I'm so angry in this movie.
-Was it -- Is it cathartic?
Is it cathartic to have mom rage?
-Deeply cathartic. -Yeah.
-Yes, it is. It is deeply cathartic
to punch things and to use, you know,
learn to use weapons correctly
and for pretend and not for real.
-Yeah. [ Laughter ]
-But it is. It's like -- There's something about
making this movie that plays out every bit of mom rage
you've ever had on the playground
or every bit of mom rage you've ever had, like,
when your child is put in the back of a class,
and you feel like they should be in the front.
-Yeah. -Or their feelings are hurt.
-I'm glad you've never actually reacted the way
you react in this movie. -Right.
-That would be a real -- If any of this stuff
was on the playground, that would be a real TMZ moment.
-I'd be wearing something else. -Yeah, exactly.
-Yes, yeah.
-It's the same director as the film "Taken."
-Yes, Pierre Morel. -Yeah, Pierre Morel.
Were you drawn to the idea of doing --
-For sure. I definitely wanted to work with Pierre.
Because he understands what I believe so firmly,
which is that an action movie is just a drama,
and it's a drama that goes really far
and really off the chains.
And -- But you have to have the drama there
in order to buy the rest of it.
-You know, obviously, the through line
of both "Taken" and this film is also, like,
parents and family... -Right, yes.
-...and what people are willing to do,
which I think anybody watching those
can associate with the character immediately
when they know that's --
It's not just a crazy action movie
where people are doing these things for no reason.
They actually have a core.
-No, it's definitely grounded in something.
This woman is fighting for kind of just vengeance for her family
and for justice for something that happened to them
and the corruption, the broken system
that led to them just being gone
with no reason and no recourse for anyone.
And she goes off the rails a little bit.
And it is a fantasy. It is not --
It's not a how-to video. [ Laughter ]
But it is -- It's just satisfying.
It's just, like, when the critics showed up
and said that they had cheered in the movie theater --
And I know they're gonna write --
You know, I don't know what kind of reviews they'll write,
but I can imagine.
But I know that they had --
They had that feeling of, like, "Yeah, get him!" you know?
-It's also -- I feel like it's been a long time
since the "Alias" days... -Yes.
-...Which is surprising, because,
and I mean this genially, you look the same.
So you kind look back and go,
"Oh, 'Alias' was a long time ago."
-Come on! Yeah, it was.
-Did you have to -- Was it fun to return
to sort of your action roots? -It was.
It had been such a long time since I'd done any action.
I mean, the last thing I did
that was action was "The Kingdom,"
and my daughter learned to crawl, and she's 12.
So that was a long time ago, you know?
That's how you kind of --
-Unless she was a really late crawler.
[ Laughter ]
-And yet, she was an amazing crawler.
And don't try to --
-Oh, Peppermint! Peppermint! Peppermint!
-Are you bringing it?!
-Is this what's happening right now?!
But, anyway, yeah, the funny thing was that
when I actually started shooting,
there would be things where I would do a take,
and I would say to the director,
"I'm so sorry. I need to do that again."
I did that as Sydney. -Oh, really?
-Yes! -Wow.
-Which is the character I played in "Alias."
-Yes. -Because she is like --
I mean, the way that I would walk up the stairs,
I did it so many times over five years.
I would like, take a couple steps,
and then look back at the camera and then forward again.
And I was like, "Hold on a second. Hold up.
That was -- That was -- It's on ABC right now.
Got to do it again. I'm sorry.
-And did you find --
Was your recovery the same as your "Alias" days?
-[ Laughing ] No. -Yeah.
-No, nothing is the same.
I mean, I just -- I got in a fight,
and this guy had a huge rifle, and he twisted my hand.
And I was -- It swelled up.
And the crew members are like, "What happened to your hand?"
And I was like, "Oh, don't worry about it.
We've got to keep fighting. We've got to make our day."
And then, the next day, they were like,
"Your hand doesn't look good."
And so they brought an X-ray machine to a trailer.
[ Laughter ]
'Cause they didn't want to stop shooting.
And while they were turning the camera around,
they said, "Go put your hand in this X-ray machine."
And the guy's like, "It looks fine."
And then, months later, it's still like this big,
and a doctor is like, "Yeah, that's a fracture."
-Oh, wow. -It was like --
-They brought in a prop X-ray machine.
-I survived. Right.
[ Laughter ]
I'm okay.
But, yes, the recovery issues are real at 46.
-Yes. -It's whiplash.
A lot of whiplash. -You know, fortunately,
your real children, unlike your cinema children, are fine.
-Thank goodness. Thank God.
-And you post some things on Instagram.
How old is your son? -He's 6 1/2.
-Okay.
So he sometimes will leave you art projects.
-Sure. -Like -- Very gifted.
-Okay. -Yeah.
[ Laughter ]
This is something --
This a wonderful drawing he did in your calendar.
-F-A-R-T.
Look at his -- Look at his spelling.
-That's incredible. -Look at his penmanship.
-Yeah, no, that's what everybody is impressed with.
-I mean, a block letter. You like it, right?
-And I don't want to make it a contest,
but this is really amazing.
Your daughter, she's older. -Yeah.
-So let's give her a bre-- give your son a break here.
But she made you a 12-foot -- -Oh, my gosh.
-She made you a 12-foot-long scarf.
-Yes. -As a birthday present.
-She just started fourth grade.
-And that -- I was thinking, like,
"What does a 12-foot-long scarf look like?"
and it's a lot of scarf. It's, uh...
[ Laughter ]
It's mostly scarf, yeah. -It is.
Look, she gave it to me --
We do birthdays in the morning at our house for some reason,
and she gave it to me the morning of my birthday.
We're about to leave for school,
and I said, "I can't wait to wear this,"
and she said, "It's chilly outside today, Mama."
And she was like, "You can wear it."
And I was like, "Yes, I can." [ Laughter ]
I can. I can, and I will, and I look forward to that.
-It looks like one of those nature videos
where a boa constrictor is eating an antelope.
[ Laughter ] -It does.
-Congratulations on both your kids and the film,
and it's always so great to see you.
