Academy Award-winning actor Sir Ben Kingsley joins TODAY to chat about "The Thursday Murder Club" and shares what drew him to accept project before he even learned what it was. Kingsley also reveals his favorite mid-morning snack when he's on-set: a peanut butter and tomato sandwich! Actor Charlie Day joins TODAY to talk about his new dark comedy, "Honey Don't!," where plays a detective who falls in love with a private eye working the same case. He shares what it was like working with director Ethan Coen, saying, "I hammered Ethan with every question I could because I was like, 'He'll probably never work with me again.'" Day also discusses Season 18 of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," being a dad to his teenage son and then plays a game of Today or Not Today where he weighs in on skydiving, Labubu dolls and more. It can be hard to embrace the unknown and uncomfortable but avoiding those situations can stunt your personal growth. Psychotherapist and author Niro Feliciano joins TODAY to talk about the art of taking risks, its neurological benefits and list steps to help you to master the skill. "It's been proven when we learn new things, we prevent cognitive decline, not to mention if we do well at those things, our reward pathways light up and boosts our dopamine so we're happier," Feliciano says.
