Denzel Washington, Maggie Gyllenhaal | Coup-Dunnit?!

Rep. Jim Jordan and the rest of the Republican Caucus are accessories to the Jan. 6th coup attempt, and they are doing everything they can to prevent Congress and the public from hearing about what happened that day and who was behind it. Next, a big trend emerged in Google's Year in Search 2021: people want to heal, and Stephen Colbert’s “Lord of the Rings” rap celebrates 20 years of the greatest trilogy in movie history - thanks to Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, Dominic Monaghan, Hugo Weaving, Andy Serkis, Orlando Bloom, Viggo Mortensen, Method Man, Killer Mike, and Anna Kendrick for helping Stephen and Jon Batiste honor the number one trilly. Denzel Washington returns to the show to talk Shakespeare with Stephen and preview his new film, “The Tragedy of Macbeth,” which hits theaters on Christmas Day and streams on Apple TV+ beginning January 14th. And the amazing Maggie Gyllenhaal returns to the show to tell Stephen about making her directorial debut with the new film, “The Lost Daughter,” which is in theaters this Friday and streaming on Netflix on December 31st.
