“Are you pregnant or just an incredibly committed method actor?”
“Little bit of both,” Moss responded, adding, “I’ve been really lucky.
It’s going really well.”
Moss, 41, asked Kimmel, a father of four, for hospital tips.
“I wanted to ask you if you had any advice,” she said.
“Things to buy, bring to the delivery room, anything?”
He said, ‘Bring music,’ which everybody tells you, you’ll wanna bring some music.
So bring a battery-powered candle if you want a candle."
Kimmel then revealed why Murray’s advice is sound.
“He’s right because the lighting is terrible in the room,” he said.
“I can’t wait to start doing that!”
When Kimmel insisted that she could start doing that right away, Moss said, “Can I?
Oh, it’s the best.
I love that.”
She then whispered thanks toward her abdomen.
Moss is also starring in the thriller seriesThe Veil, which is set to premiere on Hulu in April.
The series prompted the actress to visit the hospital for reasons completely unrelated to her pregnancy.
“We trained for weeks and weeks and weeks,” she said of a climactic fight sequence.
“And apparently it may not have actually been quite enough, because the first take…
I fractured a vertebrae.”
Moss said she continued filming the series the day after the accident.
