Writer and actor Peter "Stoney" Emshwiller was 18 years old when he sat down to interview his 56-year-old self.

In a complete interview that Emshwiller plans to release as a movie called "Later That Same Life," a present-day Emshwiller answers questions that he recorded himself asking years ago in 1977. 

"I knew I was going to be super famous, so I interviewed my older self, recording tons of video, asking, answering and responding," Emshwiller said. "I'm super excited that I'm going to finish a project I started 38 years ago," he added.

The interview between the two is touching and almost seamless. Some have even called the recording "a time-travel talk show."

Emshwiller's project is being funded online.
