Watch The Daniels create a new title sequence for colbertlateshow.
Fans of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert got a special treat when they tuned into the show last night: A new opening credits sequence from Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, a.k.a. Daniels, the writing/directing duo behind the Academy Award-nominated Everything Everywhere All at Once. The collaboration was announced right at the top of the show, after Colbert explained to viewers that his dog, Benny, had eaten the program's usual opening credits montage.
After the host praised Everything Everywhere All at Once as "a fun, wild ride," with "hot dog hands and singing racoons and kung-fu," Scheinert told Colbert that "we didn't do any of that for this." Responding to Colbert's visible confusion, Kwan explained that "we figured it's been a long day, your audience is probably tired, they could use a break." "You can't enjoy yourself if you don't feel well-rested," Scheinert added.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The filmmaking team then rolled tape on their new credits montage, which, as promised, played out like a hybrid of the 1982 experimental documentary Koyaanisqatsi and the world's highest-budgeted ASMR video. Despite the arthouse visuals and soporific announcer, the sequence began more or less as a talk show opening ought to, teasing that night's guests.
You can watch Daniels' new opening credits sequence, along with Colbert's introduction, below. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert airs weeknights at 11:35/10:35C on CBS.
