- Cherokee man Wes Studi is an award winning actor. You may have seen him on The Last of the Mohicans, Dances with Wolves or Reservation Dogs.
Moana Maniapoto connected with West online from his home in Santa Fe, USA.
Wes Studi deserves far more recognition than he's ever received.
Both he and Woody Strode.
His acceptance speech said it all. It was long overdue. He is a class actor. He has it all.
Wes Studi steals every scene he’s in. Magnificent.
Any performance this man delivers is worth watching.
Oh yes
Even killed it in Mystery Men
He owned it 100% The Last of the Mohicans is one of my favorite movies. A Legend for sure! Nga mihi👊🏽✨😍
He was brilliant in that.
God Bless Wes Studi 🙏 amazing actor, terrific human being!
When he said "it's about time", I think he spoke for more than the indigenous peoples, I felt that way too!, and I'm a mixed ethnicity person. I think we all recognize this. I hope that in the future more first nations peoples will be given key roles in movies!!! Hats off to Wes!🖖🤗👍💜
Enlightened everyone with the true soul of a native man. Thank you, Wes.
I'm a Proud Cherokee from Jay Oklahoma and very close friends of Wes' family here and we are very proud of him. In the movie he speaks Cherokee and when my grandparents first saw the movie their face lit up and they started laughing saying, in Cherokee, they'd never thought they'd hear our tongue in a movie! They're gone now, I miss them so much, and this movie reminds me of them being so happy and proud. This is my favorite movie!
Well deserved and long overdue. Outstanding actor, great person, role model .
I’m plains Cree and it’s so awesome to finally have native representation on screen and Wes is such an inspiration as an actor and an advocate for indigenous rights. Hiy Hiy niwīcēwākan/ thank you my friend
Es un GENIO. Yo y 50 millones de Argentinos recordamos sus increíbles actuaciones en:
Danza con Lobos, Geronimo, El Último de los Mohicanos, Fuego contra Fuego (Heat) con Al Pacino, Avatar y millones de películas más. Una Leyenda que ganó el Oscar. Patrimonio activo de la cultura mundial y en el panteón de los mejores actores del mundo. Sin duda un Genio. Acá lo aplaudimos de pie👏👏👏👏👏👏 MIs Felicitaciones a Mr West Study, un abrazo de corazón desde Buenos Aires🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
Very well said, Senor!!
Wes is one of my favorite actors because of the depth of character he brings to his roles. One of the best!
Thank you very much! What a beautiful and intelligent man he is!
Very long overdue. The man is an incredible actor.
You can't get more authentic than Studi.
Not only a great actor but one of the good guys.
Where would we all be .........without the rebels of this world........??
I’m over the moon with truthful indigenous stories across the planet. Thank you all that have opened this door. So interesting that he was a bit intimidated by d ‘niro, and Pacino in the movie “heat”. Those two actors should have been in awe of Wes. Multi Lindquist, more mountains to climb to his success. Amazing human being with a lineage that is superior to the destructive white race. Applauding Wes Studi film producer and Oscar winning actor.
Mystery Men was terrific! I showed it to my Boy Scout troop on a movie night. So inspiring!
I love Wes. Absolutely. I will watch anything he is in simply because he is in it.
He's great in Reservation Dogs. And for a small role in "Pow Wow Highway" , as with Graham Greene, he was funny playing that horn dog character, chasing women and looking to party.
I do not hero-worship anyone, but stand somewhat in awe of this man.
A gem and an icon. He deserves all the flowers
Adore you Wes and congratulations, it is about time! 💙
Great actor and a very charismatic, charming man.
This man is my hero and has been from first sight.
Most handsome man in Hollywood and the world.
Best actor I've even seen anywhere, best story teller of all time. I love him from hes soul to the earth he walks on.
Beautiful man, true soul of his people.
Always loved wes studi. ❤️ both him and 2 others....Russell means r.i.p. and Daniel day lewis. They r all good really....
LOVE this interview! I would love to sit down and have a conversation with Wes. He’s one of the most interesting people I’ve ever seen. I’m also from Oklahoma and part Choctaw. I find him fascinating.
HUGE Wes Studi fan since Last of the Mohicans.
He was also hilarious in Mystery Men. It's a shame that movie was too far ahead of its time to find its audience, his deadpan humor was a delight for me 😆 I still haven't seen Reservation Dogs, thanks for the reminder 😁 Covid had completely detached me from the industry
>> hilarious in Mystery Men.
I love Wes, can’t wait to see him on Finding Your Roots
Great actor,Would love to meet him.I have Cherokee ancestries.Thank you for your military service
Love him as Joe Leaphorn
Greatest actor of our time;)
He’s fabulous! He was surprisingly funny in Mystery Men and wonderful in last of the Mohicans. It was a real blast to see him in Heat which was different but a good change and not a stereotypical role. Wes Studi is awesome! 👏 😎
Favorite actor by far.
❤ Thank you Mr. Wes Studi for your service and remember ings
Wes deserved it such an ikonic actor ❤
I have only ever seen Wes in 2 movies; Last of the Mohicans and Streets of Laredo. In the former he was seriously scary and in the latter as Famous Shoes, a gentle tolerant and stoic character, and the severe contrast between such characters....now that is acting. All the best to you Wes.
Wes deserved more than just one Oscar. To this day, his portrayal of Magwa in 'The Last of the Mohicans' and his character as a Pawnee in 'Dances WIth Wolves' are simply legendary. I grew up with those characters and Magwa was my favorite character in 'The Last of the Mohicans'. Being of Seneca descent myself, seeing Wes of Cherokee (Southern Iroquoian) descent portray a Wyandotte character (also Iroquoian) was very encouraging and inspiring. His mannerisms, stoicism, and comportment in those above-mentioned films made my childhood what it was.
Great video on Wes Studi! Bravo!
Wes still looks good very handsome
I first time came across saw Wes Studi from The Last of the Mohicans 1992.
I secondly saw him from Dances with Wolves 1991.
And Thirdly from The New World 2005.
I really do like this guy. A lot.
Love Wes🇨🇦🙏🙏🙏
this is so neat. he is a legend.
One of the last fluent Tsalagi speakers...
I admire him emensely , more than any mainstream hollywood actor.
One of my great-grandmothers was a Penobscot Indian Princess. She often had problems because of her heritage. I can imagine some of the crap that Wes went through.
Dear Wes; My grandmother's grandmother was a full blooded Cherokee. I don't even know her name. My Grandma's name was Edith which means "valuable gift". My Grandpa was a Robertson, a Scottish descent. All Robertsons are related and Came from "Robert the Bruce". My Father, who I finally found when I was in my twenties. My Father is a full blooded Italian. He was finally glad that I was able to find him. He became a Dad and a Grandpa. All good. When he got sick, since I was a Registered Nurse, I became his caregiver. His Sister told the rest of the family that he was being treated like a King. Exceptional, Excellent care. But, I knew a lot of the Nurses that I once worked with. And, his Doctor.
i wish we could get hollywood to do films on these stories. i have so many wonderful books with wonderful stories that should be in film.
Thanks Moana for the great interview
Great actor ❤
Tantoo Cardinal should have an award...
Wonderful interview. Very laid back. I stumbled on hostiles by accident on dish and the name put me off because it sounded to me like it was going to be stereotypic.Apaches and Chiricahua ripping people to pieces and all this and so I didn't
Watch it the first time it came up but changed my mind and finally did and I was swept away.
Subtle and beautiful performances by everyone. And if you haven't watched it give some thought to it
Brilliant ❤️ 😊
Great interview
He did well as Red Cloud in the movie Crazy Horse..Magua is his best..in my opinion
Very good! Love Wes but he's only human....but a good human.
Both Wes Studi & Christian Bale were in the 2005 Historical Drama Epic Movie of The New World.
Wes is the best.
I wish he had more going on in Heat.
Sudi you are amazing ❤
Nice !
I'm surprised he did not mention Deep Rising I thought that movie was good as a horror movie and is underrated. It seemed scary when I was 10 yrs old and I first saw the movie. I just thought it was funny how Wes an average American man from basically the mid west plain states of America was buying and using Chinese rifles as opposed to buying American made firearms such as Remington, and Colt. 🤨🤨🤨😂😂😂
Wado Wes Studi!
Geronimo and Heat were also good movies that Wes was in!
BTW, no humans were native to the Americas. All came here over 15,000 years as Eurasians.

Got my profile pic tattooed on my left arm. Wes Studi, one of the baddest mf'ers there ever was, a time when men were men.
