Overview

• Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan appeared on The Tonight Show on August 11 to promote their upcoming Netflix film The Thursday Murder Club.
• Jimmy Fallon assembled a homemade tomato-jalapeño salsa on air using tomatoes, garlic, onions, jalapeños, cilantro, lime, and salt before serving it to his guests.
• Brosnan coughed and declined additional bites after finding the salsa too hot, quipping that he “doesn’t do hot sauce or jalapeños,” while Mirren continued eating and praised the dip.
• The playful taste test included nostalgia-fueled banter about the actors’ past collaborations, a peck from Mirren to Brosnan, and a “jalapeño kisses” joke.
• Directed by Chris Columbus, the film adapts Richard Osman’s novel and stars a veteran ensemble including Ben Kingsley and Celia Imrie.
