Theyre going to have to ask a lot of questions about what we want to take you directly to pennsylvania where theres a News Conference on whether theyre going to charge bill cosby in an encounter with a woman 20 years ago. District attorney furman. With me is chief john norris and chief sam gallon. We are here to announce today charges that have just been filed against William Henry cosby. These charges stem from a Sexual Assault that took place on an evening in early 2004 at mr. Cosbys home in Montgomery County. Mr. Cosby is charged with aggravated indecent assault.

When we have a specific time for that, well let you know. And thats going to be at the magisterial District Judges Office in elkins park. The charges today are filed as a came to light in july of 2015. Statute of limitations in this type of case is 12 years. After determining that the statute of limitations regarding potential criminal offenses had not yet expired, the investigation was reopened. Chief norris and the township police, Montgomery County detectives and prosecutors from our office have reviewed the initial investigation. Resbrer viewed some witnesses and examined information from the case and alleged victims. The evidence showed mr. Cosby established a relationship with the victim after meeting her through her Work Associated with Temple Universitys Womens Basketball program. Through the course of their association, the victim came to consider mr. Cosby her mentor and her friend. On two other occasions before criminal charge in this case, mr. Cosby made two sexual advances at her that were rejected. On the evening in question, mr. Cosby urged her to take pills that he provided to her and to drink wine. The effect of which rendered her unable to move, respond to his advances and he committed aggravated indecent assault upon her. Now, prosecutors job is to follow the evidence wherever it takes us. And sometimes that means whenever it comes to light. When u. S. Federal judge edward rabrano unsealed legal filings that contained references to the civil deposition and we learned about allegations from other victims under similar circumstances, reopening this case was not a question. Enforcement officers with a sworn obligation to uphold our constitutions and to uphold the law. Today after examination of all the evidence, we are able to seek justice on behalf of the victim. Now, Going Forward and we ask that anyone that has any information regarding any similar incidents with mr. Cosby come forward, we ask them to contact either the Montgomery CountyDetective Bureau or the township police. At this point i will take questions. Do you know anything about the legality of the deposition . As evidence in this case . I know there was a question about that early on. Well, i cant at this point. You know, theres going to be motion that is will be filed in litigated. I cant give you a determination of how that is going to result. But the depositions were released by the federal court judge and we examined them and examined other evidence that we were able to obtain in this case. Other questions .

Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines.

Since then dozens of woman have come out to accuse cosby of sexual abuse in the past year. The comedian has denied those claims. 78yearold will be arraigned later this afternoon. Again, a major headline out of pennsylvania. One we will continue to cover all through the day right here on abc news and abcnews. Com. First in this half hour we want to start with new details about the so called affluenza teen and what he and his mother were doing on the run. Vallarta after a three week manhunt and a new video is getting a look at how they spent their time. Abc newss matt gutman is there with the latest. The couches seemed to be living life on a budget staying in that shabby hotel behind me shopping at the local groceries but whats so striking about that video is how at ease they seem to be in their new lives as fugitives unaware that just two hours after that video was shot, the Mexican Police would swoop down on them. This morning the first images of them on the run. In this exclusive video you see ethan couch entering this butcher shop across the street from his shabby rental. The formerly blond teens hair dyed black. Hat backwards seems at ease talking to the butcher paying for chicken in pesos and leaving with a little wave. Two days earlier his mother in that tank top tries to pay for food with u. S. Dollars. She chats with the butcher who the texan. About two hours after this Surveillance Video couch is shot monday he is arrested. You see him cuffed and escorted to a cruiser and then up close in police custody. After 11 days of the u. S. Marshal Service Tracking down ethan couch we can say hes in custody. Reporter couch and his mother planned to disappear shortly after this video allegedly showing couch violating parole at a boozy Party Went Viral on twitter but before they left they had a Going Away Party. Reporter taking tonyas truck to the border. Our understanding they drove the truck down there. Reporter investigators confirming to abc news ethan and tonya couch used burner phones to elude detection and checked into this beachside resort los tules and a worker spotted them and tipped off authorities and tracked them to this 80 a month place in old town puerto they ate in the back. Ahead the Legal Process takes over for the texas teen who pled guilty in 2013 to driving drunk and killing four people. Couch was sentenced to probation after his legal team argued he suffered from affluenza, saying he was too spoiled to know right from wrong. Authorities also hoping to charge couchs mother. We expect to charge her with hindering apprehension carrying two to ten years in penitentiary. I think she deserves to be incarcerated. Reporter prosecutors may get their shot pretty soon. Tanya couch will be deported back to the u. S. As early as tonight and could face a judge. Ethan couch, paperwork has been filed to try to delay his deportation deportation. No word on whether thats successful. David. Matt gutman, thanks. Were joined by one of the lead investigators on the case from the beginning. Tarrant county detective dee where is this teenager and the mother right now . Huh how soon will they be hauled back to the u. S. . They are still in mexico in the custody of the mexican authorities. We expect within the next 24 to 48 hours to have them back here in texas. You have reported that the teenager and his mother had a sort of Going Away Party before they even left. So im curious about the punishment now. This teenager had only ever faced probation for drunk driving killing four. What kind of punishment does he face now . What were hoping is that he will be placed into an adult court system and placed on an adult probation system which will be very, very strict and very intensive. Much different than what he was under the juvenile system. Probably the way it looks under the law as messed up as it is hell probably only be able to sentence him to 120 days actually in jail under the old case but then he would be able to put him under very, very intense supervision on probation, much different than he was before. The potential for 120 days meantime, the mom could face more jail time than the son. Thats true. The case were filing against her for assisting him and hindering an apprehension in texas is a felony punishable by two to ten years in the penitentiary so she could conceivably do actual prison time and we certainly will push to have her prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. You found them in puerto vallarta. What kind of message does this send to that community where four families are remembering their loved ones killed in that drunk driving incident. Yeah, i mean its just terrible for those families. Theyve all been victimized all over again. They just had to all spend christmas without a loved one because of his irresponsible activities and so i know from talking to some of the family members they were very hopeful that we would catch him and bring him back to texas and let him face justice and such that it is and i know theyre very relieved hes in custody and hopefully on the way back to texas soil. All right, sheriff anderson with us from texas this morning, my pleasure. And there is much more ahead this morning.

And lets turn now to dan with the morning rundown as he ran over to the morning rundown desk. I made it. Were starting with the breaking news in the Sexual Assault case against bill cosby. In the last hour prosecutors in pennsylvania announced cosby will be be charged with a felony. This is the first criminal case against cosby. University claims cosby drugged and then violated her at his home 12 years ago. She says ozcosby was her mentor. The statute of limitations expires next month. The evidence shows mr. Cosby established a relationship with the victim. Mr. Cosby made two sexual advances at her. That were rejected. On the evening in question mr. Cosby urged her to take pills that he provided to her and to drink wine. The effect of which rendered her unable to move. Respond to addhis advances and he committed aggravated indecent assault upon her. Cosby is expected to be arraigned later this afternoon. Lets go to abcs legal analyst dave abrams. Reaction. To this Stunning Development. It is stunning. Because this is a case they investigated and decided not to file charges in in the past. Now hes charged with a crime where he could face up to 10 years behind bars. What changed . The first of all, you have got his own statements in connection with this civil case, not criminal coming out. So for the first time the authorities see what bill cosby said. Theyre going to try and use that against him. Second you have got all these other alleged victims and the prosecutors believe they will be able to call some of them to the witness stand. So you have got two big new developments that led to this charge. Going to be allowed to bring these other accusers to the witness stand in this case . Well, thats right. Theres going to be a fight over that because the Legal Standard that theyre going to have to overcome is does this show this was a pattern. You cant just introduce other alleged victims just to show hes a bad guy who does bad things. You have to be able to show that this was a pattern of conduct. Thats going to be a huge legal fight. Theres also going to be a huge legal fight about whether to allow in his statement in the civil case which was supposed to be sealed and confidential. Dan, just to clarify, this was a case the allegations stem from an incident in 2004. Local prosecutors investigated in twefnt 04 and 05 and declined to bring charges. It is 12 years later after we have seen all these other women step forward that theyre moving on this case . Thats right. If you look at the specific specific allegation under pennsylvania law that makes it clear theyre using bill cosbys own statement about what he said happened. Its a very specific allegation there and as a result, they have got that new piece of evidence. They feel theyre armed now with something they never had before that allows them to bring this charge only a month before the statute of limitations. Dan, thank you.

We are back now with Carrie Fisher fighting back against body shaming this morning targeting her after star wars the force awakens. Fisher first played Princess Leia we remember nearly 40 years ago and is taking on now what some say is a double standard in hollywood. That iconic gold bikini from return of the jedi and that seductive pose on the poster for the original 1977 star wars blockbuster made Carrie Fisher and her altar ego, Princess Leia the far away galaxys ultimate sex symbol but nearly 40 years later, the star wars heroine facing backlash. Force awakens under intense one critic tweeting, age punched Carrie Fisher in the face. Another saying, she looks old and unhealthy. I dont know where you get your delusions. Reporter the 59yearold blasting her body shaming critics on twitter. Please stop debating about whether or not i aged well. It hurts all three of my feelings. My body hasnt aged as well as i have. Halfwitted, scruffylooking nerf herder. Never one to shy away from touchy subjects, fisher opened up to me earlier this month about slimming down to reprise the role of leia in the force awakens. You actually physically transformed for this role. Yes, i did. They told me to lose weight. They told me to lose weight in the first one too. Was that that big of a deal . No, they want to hire threefourths of me. Even admitting to Good Housekeeping uk for women in hollywood, looks do matter saying im in a business where the only thing that matters is weight and appearance. That is so messed up. Shes been vocal in saying hollywood is harder on aging actresses than it is on actors. I dont know who you are or where you came from. You, okay . This morning many joining fisher in the fight against online haters posting comments like, you were my hero as a girl and now as a woman. And Carrie Fisher is like a fine wine, she only gets better with age. And i think the world needs more Carrie Fishers. Absolutely. She just says exactly what she thinks and its just a great attitude to have and i hope more people follow in her footsteps. I thought she looked great in the movie. She looked great. They should want to hire more than threequarters of her. Although its still a great line. Its her mind that they want to hire. She is brilliant and funny and funky. To someone else we love here from facebook, Sheryl Sandberg who is opening up about her lifechanging year in a new post overnight revealing how shes coping with the sudden loss of her husband. We reported on it here, but shes got quite a vision of a brighter 2016, and abcs Mara Schiavocampo is here with that story. Mara. David, good morning. Encouraging others to lean in. Well, now shes sharing how she was able to do just that in the face of a terrible tragedy revealing her most important support system and for the first time opening up about some of her hopes for the new year. This morning, facebook executive Sheryl Sandberg giving her social media friends a lot to like sharing a very personal message on her page opening up about the difficulties of 2015 in an emotional post writing, this year new years has more meaning for me than ever before. Eight months ago the facebook coo and disney board member lost her husband of 11 years and father of their two children, Dave Goldberg passing away during a Family Vacation at the age of just 47. Sandberg called goldberg her best friend, the love of her life and a key part of her professional success as she shared in her 2011 Barnard College commencement address. If you pick someone who is willing to share the burdens and reporter in the post sandberg opens up about the painful loss writing, when i first lost dave i felt like overwhelmed with just getting through each day. But sandberg says that dark time ushered in some brighter moments mainly from the support of her lifelong girlfriends. They did not just hold me as i cried, they cried with me. Because of them, i know i am never alone. Sandberg calls this kind of group a lean in circle. Its like a book club with a cause coming together to decide what their dreams are and give each other advice all the way there. Reporter in the post she encourages people everywhere to encourage us, believe in us and remind us that we are not alone. For women this kind of support can be especially important in now sandberg is looking ahead for the first time sharing her new years resolution to write day, joy and the ability to appreciate the gift of life in a way i never did before. A new year and a new outlook. And sandberg says there are now more than 25,000 lean in circles in more than 120 countries and that 80 of those involved say the circle helped them tackle a new challenge. She says its important for women because were more prone to selfdoubts and sometimes you need your girlfriends to say, you can do it and they really rallied around her this year. Its a huge lesson i learned when i went through my own struggles, sara among my circle of girlfriends. Im in her lean in circle. Absolutely. I cant imagine what i would have done without them. Im so happy shes vocalizing that. And cry with them. Your boyfriends can be in the circle too. Dan and me. Invite us any time. May be invited. We love sheryl. Great to see sheryl doing so well. Another great way to jumpstart your 2016. Morning. Two women who together lost 237 pounds. Thats a lean in circle. Yeah. Theyre featured in peoples magazine new half their size and take a look. My name is Sarah Beasley and im 27 years old. I was always heavy growing up. I always used food as a comfort. I always had a smile on my face and everyone around me thought that i was happy, but i was struggling so much deep down inside. After having three children, sarah soon weighed 260 pounds. One day i took my kids out to the backyard to play and just about five minutes of being outside, i had to sit down because i was so tired and that was my breaking point. I wanted to be a better mom and a better wife. My name is Angela Montanez and im 35 years old. My journey began when i was 10 years old. I was diagnosed with an autoimmune liver disease. You wont live past 20. She was put on medication that helped lead to the weight gain and then tragedy. Her mother died when angela was just 18. I just kept eating and eating and eating, very depressed. I loved ice cream. I could eat pints and pints of ice cream. At my heaviest i was 245 pounds. I would walk half a block and break out into an asthma attack. I was so miserable. I just couldnt take it anymore. Two women motivated by family turning their lives around. Incredible stories. And before we see how sarah and angela look, we want to welcome back Charlotte Triggs back with us. Magazine and what is it about these two women in particular that inspired you at people . They did something incredible. They lost a huge amount of weight. And they did it relying on their families. Sarah wanted to be the mom she wanted to be and angela relied on her sister and her mom for to get through it. Rely on the family in this new year coming. Check out the door. The before picture on the front of that door and lets give them a hearty gma welcome here. An incredible journey. That is stunning.

And how triumphant does it feel to actually hold part of that old wardrobe . It feels amazing. Its got to feel amazing. Amazing. And, sarah, with the children, they were the ones who initially inspired you when your husband went to iraq. Yes, they were. Not being able to play with my kids just got to me and i had to better mom. Lets show everyone at home the change right there on the table. You went from what kind of eating to what kind of eating . At night when i was sad and feeling lonely, i went to chocolate icing when my kids went to bed. I didnt want them to see me eating it, but i hid it from them. Show us what you do now. And now i like to have many healthy options. If i have carbs i like to do whole foods, carrots, vegetables, fruits. I have a miller placement shake thats full of good nutrition, shakology every morning for breakfast, and it just makes my day flow better when i eat better. Just hearing that accent makes us all feel a little better this morning. Angela, show us your change. Yes, so i love dairy. Dairy, i loved ice cream. I loved cheesecake. But it was very bad for me inflammationwise for my health so i switched it up and i love ill mix it with some garden of life and a vegan protein powder and love soups especially in the winter. Theyre hearty. Theyre warm and you get that extra liquid that you really need. Angela, thanks so much. Im glad youve thrown away the old wardrobe and, sarah, heres to a great new year with the children, being able to play with them the way you always wanted to. Thank you very much. Thank you so much.

The bad boys of rock are back and someone lost their pants on set here. Not me, the dog. He has pants. Oh, this one. Okay, you guys, this is a story weve been waiting for. The important question weve be talking about all morning. If dogs wore pants, what kind would they wear . Pants covering all four legs or just two . This image is exploding online after jared keller, a Deputy Editor at maxim magazine. After two hours, 11,000 people responded within two hours with a range of reactions from frustration, how can so many people be wrong . You wear pants on legs no matter vindication. This has concerned me for a number of years. With the internet divided keller then tracked down the creator of the drawing who believes dogs dont have arms, so their pants should technically go on every leg. I cant believe im reading this and raises a good point and quite the conundrum. We have pups modeling pants and we want you to have the final say on this doggone debate. Head to our website at goodmorningamerica. Com at yahoo. Come here, gatsby. Give me lovies. You hurt my feelings. Come on. Those are like grandpa pajama pants. They looked like scrubs before.

The pants are coming off. They keep falling down. Oh, look, see. We should show everybody at home, the tail. See the hole there. As long as they can do their business. How . You have to take pants off. I go with the grandpa pants over there too. A little sweater vest never hurt anyone. All right.

While we say hello to our friends back inside to sara. Thanks, david. Now to a new years resolution for so many. Controlling that clutter. Sophie donelson of house beautiful is here with surprising and Creative Solutions to keep your house cloofrn. I personally say every year ill do it and never gets done in so much about organizing but also about putting into play things you already have at home. Things you enjoy and might not see enough. Keeping budget in mind. You have the stuff around the house already. I love this idea this is using dish detergent and laundry containers. So this is a beverage dispenser and use that around holidays for ice tea, why not put it into action and make it happen with your liquid detergent for dish washing, excuse me, for laundry and you can see where youre at and prettier to look at. Will look better. Thats organizing that is not fun unless you love the way your home looks afterwards. Great uses for decorative jars which this is something that always comes in handy. You can never find them when you need them. Or back in the cabinet. Something where you get something gifted and hang on to the square but not sure what to do with it. The bathroom is a great place to beautify. You use it multiple times a day and a critical part of your glass vessels which could be on your mantel or in your cabinet, soap, qtips. Thats a cake tray. Cake stand is one of my favorite organizing and decorative organizational tip. In a cabinet or to go higher. Put this in a bathroom and glass is a great option and keep it clean and add these pieces on it and even on a jewelry stand or on your dresser multiple cake tears and small dishes for jewelry. I have a cake tray that has never been used because i dont bake. That will come in handy. What are we doing here. Cabinets are a chore to get through. Tension rods are a crazy secret trick. Tension rods perfect for under the sink and hang on, lets see, great. Hang on cleaning supplies like that and then, of course, for the things impossible, these pans and cutting boards. I stack them so high. You yank one out and fall towards you. You can use them as these stanchions in between. So great and looks my cupboards do not look like this. These are for decorations. This is the perfect thing to try. Just a regular plexi bend or tension rod, string two across there and just hang the ons. You avoid tissue altogether. No breaking. You see what you have, they can stack and then its just super easy and fun to decorate the re. Where do you get a tension rod. Hardware store. Any hard ware store. Another place like my kitchen ive never visited but i will be there soon. No such thing as dumb questions. This is an 18inch or 24inch one and go the length, the short kind. I dont want to miss this. This wall is something i can use. I dont have magnets and this is awesome. This is also great for a everyone has these christmas cards or pictures they printed out. Put them up. I love this idea for childrens art. Kids come home from preschool and use binder clips and tacks to put it up there. This is called washy tape, paper tape. Get it at a michaels or craft store. Thanks for spelling that out. Lets send it back to rob in missouri. I dont know where that is either. Thanks, sara. We are looking at temperatures that are right around the freezing mark here but there is a spot, a corner of the u. S. Where it will be above average, maybe recordbreaking. Thats florida, orlando, 85. 72 in macon. 76 in wilmington. Out to the west chilly and parts of socal, more in the way of mountain snow, 25 in denver, 53 in nashville. Flurries and accumulations across chicago with a pulse of lakes. This weathercast is brought to you by mercedesbenz. Amy, back up to you. All right, rob. Thanks so much. We are here now with actor Michael Shannon who nabbed a golden globe nomination for his role as a conniving Real Estate Broker in 99 homes. Theyre trying to scam the bubble bursts around them. Take a look. You go to church . Sure. Only 1 in 100 is going to get on that ark, son and every other im not going to drown. And Michael Shannon joins us now. Thank you for being with us. Thanks, amy. Congratulations on the golden globe nomination as well as a lot of oscar buzz surrounding this role. Its pretty exciting. Its been a while. The last time that happened was revolutionary road so it would be nice to have it again. Were all rooting for you. You play a Florida Real Estate mogul who makes a fortune evicting families from their home. How difficult was this role to take on . It was very difficult for a variety of reason, number one, i dont really know much about real estate. I wasnt a huge real estate aficionado beforehand so i had to learn the lingo and all that. And its also a very sad situation, but its one that you kind of have to confront head on. I think rick is a survivalist. Hes just trying to figure out how to use the system to his advantage. And despite how sad the story yeah, the movie is so powerful and its resonated with so Many Americans who literally lived through it and watching the movie, i understand people have come up to you and given you their business cards. Yeah, there have been screenings where people a lot came up and told me they survived foreclosures or started organizations to try and deal with this situation and its just a very powerful feeling when you make a movie that is that much based in reality that isnt just superheroes flying around in the sky. Were used to seeing you play intense, dark characters. Youve changed things up a bit starring alongside seth rogen and Joseph Gordonlevitt in the comedy the night before. A little change of pace for you. It was a lot of fun and came out of the clear blue sky. I wasnt expecting it but called me up and said they wanted me to do it and, you know, honestly i im from chicago and did some improv so it was fun to get to flex that muscle. You know what was fun seeing you flex your muscle in an ugly christmas sweater. Was that required attire or heres the story with that sweater. So they sent something out saying the dress code was ugly christmas sweater and i took it very seriously and then all the rest of the cast showed up in fancy suits. I was the only one that showed up in an ugly christmas sweater but i brought my little sister and she had the same sweater on. So you didnt feel completely alone. It was a bonding moment for us. I feel like this is an easy transition to go from that sweater to whether or not i wanted you to weigh in on the debate were having how a dog should wear pants. In he thoughts. Well, i saw the diagram. I think if its fourlegged pants then the belt goes wipeds up going around the i dont know if i can say it on network television, the, you dont want a belt rubbing up against so i think i hadnt thought of that but now that you point that out, that is an accurate thought that we should consider. Consider the dog, the poor dog. Yeah, yeah. Michael shannon, thank you for being a good sport. We appreciate it. No problem, amy. Love the sweater. You should wear it often and always. 99 homes in theaters nationwide. See the dudes perspective where the belt goes. Always important to think about that. To the new point break film wowing so many with its deathdenying stunts. Check it out. Abcs nick watt got a close look at one of them. Six seconds. Fly or die. Reporter this, my friends, is not cgi. There are no safety wires. Filmed for point break but totally real. Which is the most dangerous activity human beings partake in. I do genuinely believe it is the single most dangerous stunt thats ever been filmed in history, period. Reporter if jeb corliss says it is, then believe him. Hes a b. A. S. E. Jumper and hes cheated death more times than he can remember. You cant allow the fear of something which is completely inevitable which is death stop you from living your dreams. Reporter he was Technical Coordinator on point break. A rework of the Swayze Reeves movie. So many that the credits roll for 14 minutes. We met in l. A. At a skydiving tunnel and the closest i will get to jumping out of a plane in it feels exactly like that. Except you dont have the fear. Exactly. Liberating although i am a truly ungainly flying lump. Quite enough of that. Back to this. I mean theres a scene where a guy is this high off the ground flying at 120 miles an hour. Obviously dont try this at home with grandmas drapes around your shoulders. These guys have around 17,000 sky dives each and decades of practice before they risk their lives like this. Theres Something Special about going back to the old style of filmmaking and do just the gnarliest stunts ever. Reporter for Good Morning America, nick watt, abc news, los angeles. Dudefood goes healthy. People are tweeting saying what is the name of the chef there earlier . Hes back.

Thats why youre here. Thats why youre here. What do you got . So were doing obviously Festive Season, want to keep it still clean going into the new year but, you know, make sure we look after our wallet so starting off with well do turkey meatballs and chickpea puree. Everybody is like, whoo we have ground turkey, mate, combined with onions, carrot, just roll them into balls and cool for the kids in the family. Get them around, look at you. Youre a pro. You dont need an australian accent for this. And so from that we just get our chickpea puree which i combined chickpea, some lemon juice, olive oil, salt aennd we should mention two dudefood. Morning. Just for you guys. And all you do is that and completely a little bit of love from this, do this and you can ill do that. You keep going. Well sprinkle that. All the tee at tricks and theatrics . Welcome to gma. So theres your first little number. I want a hot one. Make sure to get a little bit of chickpea puree. The turkey is 97 protein, so a perfect way to start the new year. Over here my next level fresh tacos. So you like that. Notice how quickly amy came over to join us. Yeah, i dont like food. You cant start without it. So what weve got instead of using a taco shell were using a lettuce cup. And so common to have these after Festive Season, those things left over so simply grab that with a bit of dock mole la. Everybody loves guacamole. Yeah. Wow you guys are too easy. Yeah. Combine that with some celery, onion, a little bit of tomato and after the Festive Season again you always have some leftover meat left in your fridge, really cool to have the use of that, just lying around. What is tomato . Tomato. Sorry, tomato. How is my accent . Am i doing all right . More. Half the audience is perfectly happy with tomato. I love it. By having a lettuce cup its carbfree so youre using fat predominantly as your fuel source as opposed to carbs. Thats why youre burning more energy from that. Those carrots are amazing. Alternative to having chip, spiced carrots. Chuck some spices spread over a board and roast them on yogurt and much more colorful and more pigment means more nutrition and much more flavor. To get the recipes go to goodmorningamerica. Com an yahoo. Dan, great to have you. Thanks, guys. Can you help us with the accent during the break. Well work on it. Thanks, guys. Bryan cranston and cast of welcome back. Award seasons is in full swing and trumbo getting major buzz and bryan cranston, helen mirren and diane lane are opening up about their roles. Many questions can be answered yes or no only by a moron or a in the film Trumbo Bryan Cranston stars as Dalton Trumbo, oscar winning screenwriter jailed for alleged communist ties in 1950. How much did you know about Dalton Trumbo before the film. Going in, i knew a cursory amount. In doing the role i was afforded the chance to really dig in. Reporter i met cranston and costars helen mirren and diane lane in the very room where studio heads drew up the infamous hollywood blacklist which targeted socalled communist sympathizers, lane since prison you dont talk or ask. After being jailed, he became imperious. Oh, go on. Reporter oscar winner mirren is hedda hopper who could tore a pen. Whisper a movie youve written in secret. Maybe ive even heard of it. Hedda hopper, not exactly somebody you want to have a pedicure with. Oh, i dont know. I think she would be quite fung to have a pedicure with actually. A lot of gossip. Is it fair to call her a villain. I think its fair to call her the villain of this piece. Of course, in her eyes and in the eyes of the majority of america at the time she was the heroine. Reporter i met trumbos reallife daughters consulted for the film. We knew that he could not write under his own name, but because it seemed so unjust it was also difficult to understand at the same time, our parents were such models of strength and togetherness as a family i dont think he thought of himself as a hero to fight the fight. He defended himself and i think anyone would do that. Reporter for Good Morning America, deborah roberts, abc news, new york. Thank you, deborah. Good morning america is brought to you by abreva.
