During an interview onThe Late Show with Stephen Colberton Wednesday, the Oscar winner, 39, revealed that she “had to do something” the day theHouse of Guccitrailer dropped. Leto stars in the Ridley Scott-directed film alongside Gaga.
“TheHouse of Guccitrailer came out, we shot a really intense scene all day,” she recalled.
She added that Leto, who is famed for fully immersing himself in his roles, told her to have to “have a good night” while still in character as WeWork Founder Adam Neumann.
Hathaway responded with her best impression ofLady Gaga’s “Father, son, House of Gucci” line.
“I didn’t know what would happen because he’s so intense in his commitment to his process — but I swear to God, he split into three,” she said.
She continued, “It was like a horcrux: Over here was Jared, over here was Paolo Gucci, and here was Adam Neumann!” she continued. “I was like, ‘Oh dear,’ and he was like, ‘Whoa, I think I just time-traveled!'”
“We Zoomed before we started, but I kind of think he was Paolo Gucci,” she said. “He was not doing an accent, but when I sawHouse of Gucci, I saw the look in his eyes.”

Hathawaystill enjoyed makingWeCrashedwith him despite Leto remaining in character throughout shooting.
“I really respect Jared’s process, and I had a wonderful time working with whoever that was! We really created the most beautiful connection between us,” she told Colbert.
Leto previouslyopened upto PEOPLE about why emotionally exiting a part when projects wrap isn’t always simple.
“It’s definitely not a light switch. Like anything, if you make a habit out of a way of talking, a way of walking, a way of being it doesn’t just go away the second you turn the switch or there isn’t a switch,” he explained earlier this month.
He added, “And I think that’s normal. You know, I kind of fall in love with every character I play in a way and you know, often times I’m sad to see them go.”
