Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon Star in "King of Wishful Thinking" Music Video

Television


The two donned wigs and ’90s gear to perform the hit song from the ‘Pretty Woman’ soundtrack on Friday’s ‘Tonight Show.’

Jimmy Fallon and Paul Rudd have once again transformed themselves into pop stars, this time making a shot-for-shot remake of the classic 1990 video for British pop duo Go West’s “King of Wishful Thinking” from the Pretty Woman soundtrack.

In it the two take turns singing and dancing for the camera with wigs, glasses and leather jackets. The bit also starts with a woman dressed up like Julia Roberts’ iconic character Vivian, who opens the door of a limo (not unlike the one seen in the film) for Rudd and Fallon. The woman reappears throughout the video.

The skit is a running gag for the duo, who previously made a faux music video in 2016 to Styx’s “Too Much Time on My Hands.”

Rudd was on the show to promote Duncan Jones’ upcoming sci-fi thriller Mute, which comes to Netflix Feb. 23 and stars Rudd, Big Little Lies’ Alexander Skarsgard and Justin Theroux.
