Andy Serkis Reads Trump's Tweets As Gollum And Fans Can't Get Enough

11 months ago

On Tuesday, Stephen Colbert invited actor Andy Serkis onto The Late Show to have him play who some people consider to be one of our greatest modern monsters: President Donald Trump. A lot of Trump's tweets are confusing, if not utterly bewildering. Yet, listening to Andy Serkis, they start to make sense. Maybe Trump's psyche is almost the same as Gollum's?

He read a more current tweet aloud:

The Fake News Media has never been so wrong or so dirty. Purposely incorrect stories and phony sources to meet their agenda of hate. Sad!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 13, 2017

And also mentioned the "covfefe" tweet that lives in infamy.

People went wild for it:

@andyserkis I gotta say reading Trumps tweets as Gollum.. is more enjoyable ..! @colbertlateshow #lssc

If all of 45's tweets came out like that I might actually want to hear what he had to say. You are AMAZING!

There's actually already someone on Twitter who "gollumizes" all of Trump's tweets everyday. I assume it's Gollum. Whoever they are, they were huge fans of the bit on The Late Show:

Maybe we should turn this whole administration into a three part sequel?
