John Hurt is/was my uncle. Wonderful man who cared about family deeply and went out of his way (and pocket) to make sure I had the best medical care at a time when I needed it. I lived with him in his London flat through that time and he would send me out to explore London and do the tourist thing at the weekends because even though I didn’t have anyone able to go with me he still disliked seeing a 20 something moping around a flat for the weekend.
In that photo John and my brother could be twins, it was often only semi seriously suggested that if a film called for a ‘young’ John my brother would be perfect. I also have the same eyes as him, ‘they couldn’t see my eyes’ is hysterical especially since we call our eyes ‘little piggy Hurt eyes with no eyelid’.
I miss him very much, he was such a dry comic and passionate actor, he hated all the ‘behind the scenes’ bonus extras on DVD as in his words ‘spoils the magic!’
Your Uncle was an exceptional actor and he is missed by many, albeit in a different way than family must miss him.
So,, you think this story is about you ?
In fact I was just watching him in Alien and realised just how much of the power of the infamous death scene is down to his performance. He understood the indignity of pain and didn't flinch from portraying it.
Richard Bailey what now?
@@RoadkillbunnyUK I had presumed he was referring to me but maybe not. It makes little sense in either case.
I'm old. I remember Ian in a great BBC series Lovejoy. He was awesome and still is. Happy he is still smashing it!
me too!
Came here to say the same thing!
Lovejoy was such great entertainment and all characters so colorful. Great Brit atmosphere everywhere in it. My wife and I enjoyed so many of the other programs such as Prime Suspect.
Yupe I got into antiques because of Lovejoy. Still love the series!
Trent, I’m a gal who watched Lovejoy-watch those comments about ‘old’! 😉
I had the happy luck of meeting Mr Mcshane when I was still living in New York. I was going to the main comic book shop to go to in the city West Coast Comics with my friends. I just saw him on the way there waiting for that light to change at the crosswalk.So there I am standing next to Al Swearengen himself, and I say to myself what the hell try to talk to him. So I say hi he say hi back I told him I am big fan of his, and we talking till we parted way on the street. I have some celebrities on the streets of New York over the years and I got to say that was the nicest encounter ever. He really is the sweetest. He could tell when I started speaking at first I was a little nervus and he was so chill and just told me to take my time we have a lot of walking to do. So so nice it was a real pleasure to meet him.
Ian is like smooth leather with spots of sandpaper. He steals the show whenever he's on screen. I love him just about everything he's been in.
Ian McShane always gives a great performance in anything he does.
i did like him intil i realise hes just one of the leftie hollwood scum bags, and if he was talking about margaret thatcher being re elected, the worst thing that happened here in the uk, was of her not being el elctes, same sort of thing as in the usa if trump doesnt get re elected, how on earth the best president and the best prime minister were voted out in the first place must be one of the biggest mysteries of them all, and the usa and the uk obviously now realise what a terrible mistake was mad by both countries
Including interviews
Love Ian ❤️ What a magnetic personality. His eyes pull you in, tie you up and have their way with you. So looking forward to seeing Al in Deadwood one more time.
I love looking at all the comments and everyone loves him from different shows. Great actor and a national treasure.
Deadwood was a series cut down in its prime. So glad they're doing a movie to give it proper closure.
Goya Solidar I agree, but HBO track record of spinoffs into movies is 0 for 2 - I hope to GOD they don’t kill it for us. I still rewatch the series 🥰❤️
I thought the final episodes were dreadful. It implicated all the characters in the murder of a prostitute and so ruined them all. We no longer had a sympathetic character. Just moral cowards.
you just made my day!!!!!!!!!
To be honest Deadwood was pretty accurate in its historical timeline, there was really nowhere TO go with it after it had been brought into the United States, without fictionalising stories which would have robbed a lot of the shows integrity, if they had continued it would have been a fairly run of the mill soap opera of an expanding western town
Most perfect tv series ever. I like the fact it finished where it did
Pretty amazing that as a 19 yr old he looked 35, and now as a 76 yr old he looks 60.
John Hurt seriously looked like a teenager in that photo. A handsomer _Bad Luck Brian._
Surprised neither of them mentioned that Ian McShane plays Professor Broom in the upcoming Hellboy reboot, a role last played beautifully by his late roommate John Hurt in Guillermo del Toro's Hellboy.
That was my first thought when I saw the title of the video. Someone on the show really dropped the ball there
They changed the character's name for the reboot - Professor Bruttenholm. 🤔💭I have a feeling he may do a different late night show-or more printed interviews done by phone where he talks about all his projects coming up. Deadwood Movie - May, Hellboy - April, Bolden Movie - May(if I remember), and a Dark Shadows comnentary due to be released in May too.
Good point. Money at stake. Wonder if Ian was happy with movie gig and/or finished product. In any event, Ian's body language could be interpreted as being uptight, uncomfortable, and/or angry about talking with Steven.
ByrnePerfection They didn’t change anything. Both John an Ian play the same character, Bruttenholm. Its pronounced “Broom”, but it’s the same character
Ben M Uncomfortable. It looks like he warmed up. If you look at the way he sits-looks like it's manners/classiness. He did state in a podcast he likes radio interviews etc. even if he's at a radio studio better, because kind of awkward on talk shows. 🤔💭but then he seems to love talking to regular everyday kinda people who interview for a low key place.
His portrayal in Deadwood was one of the best tv performances ever
Agreed!
I love Ian McShane. A class act
He will always be Lovejoy regardless how many roles he does. Brilliant series.
Exactly. He is for me.
Just watched a film, starring Ian McShane, called High Tide thus evening! 😊
you are incorrect he will always be Al Swearengen; shakespearen role of a lifetime
@@lazylion420 Yep, me too - McShane WAS Lovejoy, but for me he will always be Al now!
Finished the Lovejoy series a couple of months ago, still not sure about that ending. Was happy to have original writer back for final episode, but the ending was too pat. Seemed designed for reruns.
Loved Ian McShane in “LOVEJOY” ❤️👍🕊❤️🕊🎭🌏❤️
I came for Ian, not the worm behind the desk.
No kidding....The Worm should be cancelled.
I adore Ian McShane, I love hearing him talk... I'd listen to him read a phone book
whats a phone book? a big book that has cell phones inside of it?
What a face. It's like it's been honed by the harsh winds of the plains over centuries.
He was truly beautiful when he was younger
@@susanyork5089 Was? He still is! Except now he has the elder beauty that exudes wisdom.
He will always be the infamous BLACKBEARD
his voice is so amazing . someone get him and Jeremy irons into a scene together .
I adore Ian McShane. So gorgeous, even at 76. When he was younger I used to mix him up with French actor Richard Bohringer. Both beautiful actors.
Don't worry, the Hound avenged you, Brother. Rest with the Seven now.
Read this, frowned, went away, came back 10 minutes later when I remembered.
His death woke the hound up and sent him North
Wish Ian had been a regular on GOT. Would have made a cool show much cooler.
Violence is a disease. You don't cure a disease by spreading it to more people.
Funny thing is, McShane's character wouldn't have wanted vengeance.
Ian McShane .. great actor and what a good bloke.
Ian needs to be on a lot of Audio Books!! Love his voice!
How does Ian manage look like Sylvester Stallone, Willem Dafoe, and Ricardo Montalban all at once?
he reminds me of an older rufus sewell and in that old pic he looks like a young rob lowe, the man is versatile.
Wilcardster Stontalfoe....I can see it!
I now, can no longer, not see that! Thanks lol
That's a crazy observation. Well done.
Hint of Al Pacino as well.
Ian McShane is absolutely, positively the best human being on this planet.
Not really, but he is an exceptional actor.
One of those artists that makes life worth living - ❤️🥰❤️
Jessica Williamson Yup!
his Dead Wood english was the best
As long as you excuse his French. heh
Oh, I speak French. 🙂
Deadwood film finally releasing spring 2019, c*ksuckers!
I saw Mr. McShane as Benjamin Disraeli in a miniseries from 1979. He was excellent. An excellent actor.
He was the best in SEXY BEAST as Teddy Bass. I love Ian's work.
Agreed, in Sexy Beast he outperformed all other actors whenever he was on screen. Truly scary and menacing underworld boss.
He played a bone chilling gangster.
"where's don gal "?
He is perfectly cast as Odin.
He is a perfect cast. Thats all.
You should see him in Deadwood
You are damn right
Ian McShane portrayed what, in my mind, is the personification of brutality in Sexy Beast, Movie gangsters like De Niro and Pacino at least seem approachable, but McShane's Teddy Bass, hulking, unblinking and dead-eyed was pure malevolence - the gangster I'd least like to meet in a dark alley.
To think he had someone like Don Logan under his thumb says a lot
The breakfast scene with Ray Winstone should be studied as a masterclass in all acting schools, both Ian McShane and Ray Winstone played the scene to perfection.
Ian McShane is probably my favorite actor of this generation.
Yeah especially when he played as tai lung in kung fu panda
"you're a panda... he's a panda!"... favorite Ian McShane role, such a perfect voice for it.
I loved his acting in kung fu panda and his character, i hope he returns as tai lung again.
They should've given him more time. I miss John, would've loved to hear more about him.
He still has some damn good hair.
Has he ever done a role with his native accent? Oh well, John Hurt was a damn legend. Low key one of the better actors of all time.
Lovejoy?
His Al Swearengen was the finest acting performance I've ever witnessed.
Ian great in "If it's Tuesday, this must be Belgium." Saw it as a kid and always remembered it.
Saw that at Radio City Music Hall in 1969. I was 17.
Would have been nice to have a long interview, they barely got started.
Maybe Ian wanted a longer interview. In any event, his body language could be interpreted as him being uncomfortable talking with Steven.
Aren’t the interviews usually like 20 minutes and they are cut down?
It's an advert not an interview.
He is majestic AF.
His wrinkles is all in the right places like it’s engineered.
Looking forward to him reprising the role of Winston in John Wick 3 - love that character!
Can of corn!
Ian McShane = Awesome.
"John What Have You Done?"
He looks fantastic for his age. Great hair.
This gentleman's voice is mesmerizing.
“She who must not be re-elected” Haha had me in stitches
He is my favorite character in Hot Rod!
Great to see Ian again. Love that photo from the early 60s. The contrast between Ian and his great friend, the late John Hurt, is quite pronounced. I don't think I've seen photos of either of them as teenagers before. Wonderful actors...
Can't wait for new deadwood movie! Miss you, Mr swearengen!
There's nothing better than honouring a deared friend that has contributed a lot the world of acting like John Hurt, I'm not a fan of Ian, but what he did was so beautiful by telling some life stories with him as a way of paying tribute to him. So, R.I.P. Sir John Hurt.
Man, I love Ian McShane :D Ever since he palyed Blackbeard, and now he's just an amazing Mr. Wednesday in American Gods.
PS: It's really weird to hear him in his "real" voice. He's doing such a great job with Odin's voice.
you forgot Lovejoy
Every British person: “Oh it’s Lovejoy. Why’s he on US telly?!”
Why not? It's not his first run at making it in the States. We lent him out to them a long time ago.
He was also awesome in Kings, one of the most under publicized and underrated series ever.
Rest in peace, Mr. Ollivander. ;(
Judas is in hell!!
Oh no. What happened to his speech? He usually has the most beautiful speaking voice. Such a great actor.
he obviously just got back from the dentist
Well your uncle, was to me one of the most amazing actors. I miss him. You were truly blessed to have know such an amazing man, actor.
Ian McShane is a treasure!
4:46 "They sent me back, they can't see my eyes!"
That's a new one on me. XD
He still looks good.
You must be blind he looks horrible even his false teeth are lose
@@jojobean9260 For a year old man... he looks good.
Mmmmm, Oh Ian... I always want to see you on the screen more... Such charisma! Such talent!
Ian mcshane is one of my favourite ever actors. Great Actor.
its sad that no one remembers one of Ians better roles, "Kings"
Kings was amazing! Wish it was available for streaming.
He's like an older Bron from Game Of Thrones.
Foking Lanister
omg yes
He was in one GoT episode. Brother Ray
Ian is so great. One of my favorites.
This is the guy that speaks the introduction on Grace Jones single, "Slave to the Rhythm"
WHAT?! Must go back and check that out. Thanks!
Yep. I'll be damned! Could this guy get any cooler?
@@parsnipmcgee329 LMAO. 👍🏽
I never knew that! That's amazing!
@@parsnipmcgee329 Indeed. What a piece of music, Ian and Grace are singular talents.
What a great actor he is, but man, I needed some subtitles for some of that.
Such a gorgeous man, nearly 80 years old and still eye candy
What? He's nearly 80???
@@MossPalone yes! born 1942. incredible
Stoked for the Deadwood movie on HBO.
Fun interview, but it seemed like Stephen couldn't keep up with Ian.
Erik Frye Stephen is a moron that’s why everything he says on his late night talk show is read from a teleprompter
The Hounds only friend.
Ian McShane's filmography is vast and to be respected. My personal favorite is 44 Inch Chest (2009) where he plays a gangster/enforcer (and an out, unapologetic homosexual) named Meredith, who has loads of back 'n' forth with John Hurt's character, Old Man Peanut. I highly recommend this to fans due to its dark and hilarious script and its ensemble cast, comprised of a veritable "who's who" of British cult/character actors; Ray Winstone, Tom Wilkinson, Stephen Dillane (Stannis the Mannis), Joanne Whalley, Steven Berkoff and Andy de la Tour. Sexy Beast and Deadwood are very close McShane runners-up, but I still need to watch Lovejoy, as it was before my time.
I loved John Hurt, as an actor, he was exceptional & so so talented . I remember watching him on “ who do you think you are “ and how absolutely gutted he was when he was told he had no Irish ☘️ in him , he was so disappointed & so wanted to be “ Irish “ , he lived here for a period of time & apparently loved it . He really was a Gem 💎 .. Rip John …
I know him from Lovejoy
My mum watched it back in the day
I really enjoy that show.
Blackbeard came strolling in all smooth like the wind is blowing his way
Yea im from.north carolin boring raised from the state at the ecu they play hoyice the colors and they band all.diffrent pirate flags and ecu flag to a d the fans sing it its true pirate Nation. Him being dyed off.coast in of North carolina
"You would not want to be staring, like that, at me"...Al Swearengen
If you're a fan you'll be happy to know that filming ended after Christmas 2018 and a two hour Deadwood film should be out in spring 2019.
love Ian, great actor, great character
Especially tai lung in kung fu panda he was the best.
@@ZacSkateGamer I agree , he gave Tai Lung the best voice
@@makenziehackett yeah I wish he could return in the next movie as tai lung again that would be sick.
@@ZacSkateGamer I'm glad they didn't choose anyone else for Tai Lung 😁
@@makenziehackett same here no one could do better than him, all I ever did i did to make you proud that line was fantastic from Ian no one else could do that line better than him
Never even mentioned the Deadwood movie that's coming out in like two months? What is that. Swearengen is Ian McShane's iconic role. At least in America.
Al Swearengen thank you!!! PS fanfuckingtastic user name ❤️🥰❤️😍😍😍😍 Swegin forever 🥰🥰🥰
Lovejoy for us but yes, Deadwood was wonderful.
Lovejoy was one of his best series.
Does anyone remember the Lovejoy series? Excellent! If you can find it anywhere, watch it! The show is taken from the books by Jonathan Gash, which are also really good. Gash fills the books with fun quirky folks involved in the old game of buying low and selling high. By any means necessary.
Sandra Nelson Lovejoy is what he’s mainly known for here in Britain. It’s a great program
I had a bit of a dodgy relationship with Lovejoy at one point because my deeeeeear husband spent half of the delivery of our second child sat in a comfy chair watching lovejoy on a laptop while munching on MY snacks. 😒
I've since forgiven Lovejoy at least.
Yes! Lovejoy had excellent scripts, a perfect cast (remember dear old Tinker?)and superb production values. It was a joy to watch. I still treasure the three episodes I saved on VHS tapes and which still play.Lovejoy was a REAL joy.
And it was filmed in my mums village lavenham Suffolk 🇬🇧
Ian McShane in the English TV series Lovejoy...wonderful..
Happy Belated Birthday to Mr.McShane.9-29-42.England
this man is aging like fine wine.
And not one hint about Lovejoy. Because that's what I remember him from, and it was a six series TV show!
Omg hes such a pleasure to listen to! I had no idea he was so severely british!
I could listen to Ian McShane read a Denny's menu. His voice is amazing. American Gods is a sweet show...and John Wick...and...
Deadwood
IN LOVE WITH IAN MCSHANE!!! GAWD HE GIVES ME THE VAPORS......😳🌼🌼🌼🌼
Bit of a pocket rocket, but oh my, what a handsome devil. Terrific actor, loved him since Sexy Beast.
IMHO he did very well in the ill-fated TV series "Kings". I was devastated when they canceled the series just after one season.
@DebbyAbqNM After just googling it, I have to say he even makes a mullet look almost fashionable ^^
What the hell is a pocket rocket?
True LEGEND right there!
Teddy Bass 👍
"The one eye.. uh.. One eye whatever..."
He nearly called Odin a 'one eye'd willie'!
Think the bold yin’s had a couple half’s before this 🥃👌🏻😂
Well if you’re old I must be too because I used too love Lovejoy too.They still put it back on in the morning, and I watch it all over again.🎼♥️🇦🇺
McShane looks pretty darn good for a chap in his late 70s. Props!
Been a fan of his since Lovejoy. Glad they have made the Deadwood film to tie up the cancelled series.
He looks almost the same as he did in Lovejoy 30 years ago.
@Fresh Baked I never said he looked young. I said he looked almost the same. That's because he looked like he was in his '70s 30 years ago ;-)
Fresh Baked Too a certain extent yes, but he does look really great for his age. No surprise though-some really great genes-his mum's still alive.
Good lord he doesn't look anything like he did. He's all wrinkley and caved in now.
He looks awful obviously a hard drinker and his false teeth are loose yuk hasn't aged well at all
Aged and possibly drunk but still cool!
Lots of people here remember him in Lovejoy. However, over the last year I've also seen him in the 1960s movie the Battle of Britain, and in repeats of Dallas too! Hes had quite a long career
I want Ian McShane in every movie and show
*Can i say he is handsome..like he could be my grandpa but still*
Just curious, why is it this in bold?
@@martyg8137 i really dont know, guess i just wanted to make a point
This just in: McShane's HAIR is running for pres in 2020...
It’s amazing how good his hair is at his age
Omg!! I didn’t know there was a Deadwood movie coming out. Yay!!!
Ian still walks like a Wide Boy - go on my son! 👍🏾
