CBSAndy Serkis brings back Gollum to read President Donald Trump tweets on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert."While promoting his latest motion-capture performance as the ape Caesar in "War for the Planet of the Apes," Andy Serkis stopped by "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" to talk about the work that goes into pulling off the performance.

But Colbert also used the occasion to get Serkis to voice one of his most famous mo-cap characters, Gollum from "The Lord of the Rings."

And the catch: Serkis would read some of President Donald Trump's tweets in the Gollum voice.

So Serkis jumped up on his seat in his Gollum crouch, grabbed the card he was to read from, and just owned the performance to the delight of Colbert and the audience.

Watch it for yourself below (Serkis stars his Gollum performance at 3:50 mark):
