VIDEO: Alexander Skarsgard Challenges Stephen to Eat Swedish Fish Eggs on LATE SHOW

On last night's LATE SHOW, Alexander Skarsgård comes from a long line of Skarsgårds. He tells Stephen about one ancestor who owned a bar, smoked a cigar, and played guitar. Later, the "Tarzan" star got ripped for his latest movie, and gets all misty-eyed telling Stephen about the time his trainer let him eat real food. And watch as Stephen tries to hold down his portion of KALLES, a Swedish staple that the New York Times says "challenges the universal gag reflex."

THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT premiered on Tuesday, Sept. 8 on CBS.The show is broadcast from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City. 

A multi-talented and respected host, writer, producer, satirist and comedian, Colbert is well-known for his previous late night show, "The Colbert Report," which concluded on Friday, Dec. 18, 2014.
