I am a former NYC theatrical stage manager, and I did a play with Colman back in about 2005 or so. He is EVERY BIT AS DELIGHTFUL AS HE COMES ACROSS in this interview; he was one of the first people to send me a friend request when I joined Facebook (a couple months after the show), and we had an in-joke that he still remembered years later. I've been watching his career take off over the past few years and it has been an immense privilege. It's also REALLY surreal to be watching this and thinking "there's RDJ, there's Mark Ruffalo....oh, and there's the guy I taught Irish folk dance to in a theater basement in 2005."
@@angelaott295 That's not even the only thing he wrote! He later wrote a play called "Dot" about a woman with dementia, he wrote the script for a musical about Donna Summer, and he's also worked on something about the singer Nat "King" Cole. He's also working on a TV series based on "Dot".
I completely co-sign this! I knew Colman from the theater when he was in Passing Strange, and he is the most lovely, kind, sweet (and of course, stupendously talented) person. I've also been following his career, cheerleading from the side, and am just so thrilled for him to finally be getting his (long deserved!) flowers. Really enjoyed this whole conversation too.
This was the most fun, the least ego based and sincere round table I have ever seen. Normal and open men being vulnerable and simultaneously supportive. Bravo
Andrew Scott is freaking underrated man. I love him as James Moriarty in BBC's Sherlock. Probably one of the most overlooked talent in the entire series. I'm so happy to see him in this roundtable and hear his experience making All Of Us Strangers
Idk, from my point of view Moriarty was HUGELY popular among fans. Maybe not in some awards So strange to see how everybody say Fleebag is a some sort of revelation. Like, his talent wasn't hidden))
Both he and Jeffrey Wright have really made it here, as the “& more” in the title of this very valuable discussion. Not every actor can be so well known that THR doesn’t even need to list their names as the attraction of one of these UA-cam videos.
Paul Giamatti of the most likeable and charismatic guy I've ever seen. His attitude, his humor, and the way he speaks, such a lovely man. We are blessed to live in the same timeline as he does ❤
He's so great. I also learned yesterday he wants to be in the next Knives Out movie as a rival detective, and it made me realize he would be a PERFECT modern day take on Columbo.
@@JeffKelly03 Rian Johnson better call Giamatti ASAP! It'll be interesting how the Knives Out movie will be about Blanc having a rivalry with other detective. Giamatti could be a breath of fresh air by injecting some decent humor to it
I prefer this host's style of well-researched specific questions to each actor as opposed to the previous host which was general questions for everybody to answer one after another.
the format here wasn't too far off from that. He still posed the same question to them just tailored to what their experience on the subject. Plus it's edited so some of them answered the same question but it's cut and then they go to someone else for a different question. It's a combination of a more nuanced discussion plus editing.
Probably somewhere in the middle is the best structure. I felt like this host relied too much on his notes - like, prepare, commit some stuff to memory, you’re at a table with actors who literally commit text to memory for a living. Use them for reference but basically EVERY comment/question he had was read off a note. Really diminishes the conversational aspect, and also diminishes respect a bit.
When jeffrey wright speaks, his peers look at him with this respect that is almost in awe of him. andrew scott was mesmerized. awesome interview with these top tier talent.
Putting together a group like this takes two things, picking the right guests, then having a moderator equally as gifted. This roundtable was both exciting, humorous, insightful, and sublimely entertaining. I didn't want this conversation to end.
absolute hats off to the interviewer. man. everytime it felt like he knew his stuff backwards and forwards, led so well from one persons response to another persons question, it felt so balanced, able to get to every person equally ask them all equally powerful questions, no favoritism or imbalance no one left out, and all felt so incredibly natural. probably the best i've seen of all these kinds of things yet.
The interviewer is a genius. I’ve previously heard Paul Giamatti speak glowingly about the movie roles that were brought up. He knew exactly what response the question (especially the way it was phrased) would elicit.
I disagree, he works as an interviewer rather than a moderator. He blocked all possibility of interactions between the actors, imposing his lead through questions that made the encounter seem like a fragmented individual interview to each actor. The actresses meet is the perfect opposite, great moderator there.
Exactly. I often come back to this interview to listen to it again, because he says it in the simplest terms possible: “park it” on the use of “openly Gay”.
This is the best Off Script yet! There is such a great warmth and openness from each of the actors at the table. I totally felt part of the conversation.
The chemistry between these actors was through the roof! I especially loved Colman and Andrew's reaction regarding how restrictions should not be placed based on gender and preferences, why is there even a thing called being openly gay in this era, and how you should wear your heart on your sleeve. The fact that actors can play different kinds of roles and transform brings out the most important quality that a person could have - Empathy! I get that representation is key, but if a straight person plays a 'gay character', there is a huge uproar, and an argument can be made to hire a gay actor, but through playing that role, I believe people gain empathy for what's it like being the other person. And similarly for gay actors playing straight roles, there is no reason to place any restrictions.
@@jamieleeke14 Totally agree with you there! But I do think there is a discussion to be had about gay actors being cast in straight roles because I do feel that has been happening. I may be ignorant, but I did not even know that Andrew was gay. He has been around for so long playing so many roles. But to your point, I do think that they are not getting the limelight that other actors do! In that way, I can understand the need to push gay actors for gay roles, it gives them a chance to bring something that only they can, especially when there are so limited roles like that.
Yeah, for me it’s all about right person for the job. That’s like getting hired at a job and only getting it because I’m am black, I wouldn’t like that at all.
When RDJ talks about the other peoples roles this year you can feel his passion and love for film just radiating from the screen. What a great roundtable!
I now call the lovely person that is Andrew Scott - "openly shamelessly" gorgeous - inside and out. What a talented, witty intelligent and kind man.Also the host here took the time to be knowlegable and asked informed questions that managed this interview panel very well.
I remember reading an article back in 2020, RDJ said that Christopher Nolan was in his bucket list for filmmakers that he wanted to work with someday. Now he's dream came true and gave one of the best performance of his entire career, i'm so proud of him ❤
Yep, Nolan told him not to do anything he’s done recently but to go back to his Chaplin roots. He said his Tony Stark performance is of course great but do something different. I’ve always thought he was talented. His Sherlock Holmes is big brained like Tony but still pretty different.
@@lohi172when did he say that? Nolan doesn’t strike me as a director who would tell someone to ignore everything they’ve done for 2 decades as an actor. I could be wrong though, and am genuinely curious to see the interview if true
@@Nimajneb42069he said something in a similar essence but more vague he never dissed the marvel work he’s done but in fact has praised it he more so meant for him to just step out of his comfort zone in this role since Tony stark was more of just rdj being rdj rather than a completely different personality
I absolutely love Colman Domingo’s story about creating his first show, and what it says about the true artist’s drive to make things even if their personal circumstances aren’t great.
Downey's humility & humor amaze me. That question, "What would you do if you weren't acting?", if he told them what he has been doing with his Footprint Coalition, they would be floored. Doing his part to save the planet. 🙏👏👏👏
@@qwerttzizzi I can explain! "Equity" stands for "Actors' Equity", which is the actors' union. For every play - big AND small - there has to be a person who gets the job of being the "Equity Deputy", which is basically like the union rep for that production. They're the person who has to go to the director with a complaint if the actors are having a union-related issue, and they're also the one who's keeping an eye on things to make sure that the show is running the way the union says it should be run. The first day of rehearsal the union actors all gather to "elect their deputy", but - what really happens most often is that everyone stands there looking at each other not really wanting to be the one to take the job because they don't want the extra responsibility, until someone finally says "Okay, fine, I'LL do it". :-) (I was a stage manager in theater for years, and stage managers are also part of the actors' union so I saw that.) So Colman saying that he's usually the kind of guy who WANTED to do that and would WILLINGLY take on that responsibility....yeah. (Fun fact - I did a show with Colman in 2005 and so he was MY union rep too.)
I have watched quite a few of these over the years and just before the big award season and I can honestly say that this was the most honest, no-ego, session I have seen. Everyone came off as human, humorous, and very likable.
Every Roundtable has a moment - Colman stole this one at 33:27. What a change in mood and conversation after this (although could be the editing). Also - love this moderator. All the questions excellent. Well prepared - and best part he never stepped on anyone's response.
It's Wednesday afternoon and I am making dinner, I am loving this discussion so much, that I needed to pause 10 minutes in just so I can have a nice Friday evening watching the rest of this sitting by the fireplace with my fav glass of wine.... this is golden !!! What a table !! WOW
Bravo to the team behind this and especially to the host. Didn’t treat them as famous celebrities and didn’t provoke them for clicks and views. These were insightful and genuine questions that got these extremely unique and talented people to open up in a way you never really see.
So nice to see RDJ acting so exited when others are speaking even though being a legend himself. Tells you how much he observes and learns from others.
I really love this round table episode, it feels like a very genuine conversation of old friends who truly admire each other. It’s so refreshing to hear them being so open with their answers and no one seems to be outshining anyone. The atmosphere was so relaxed and chill and the questions were intelligent but not very heavy.
I'm sure he will not see this, but I saw Colman Domingo's A Boy and His Soul in London in 2013 and still think about it. It was such a moving, vulnerable piece. I thought about it so much over the past 10 years, and it really is excellent to see him getting his due now.
I think it really helped that all the actors had connections with each other in some way, you can really see them let their guards down and just enjoy the conversation
Beautiful the way their egos are checked here, giving each other space. Colman Domingo's story, is particularly moving. All such creative, thoughtful people. Well done, tonthe interviewer!
I had to come back and comment. This is by far my favourite round table to date. This men really vibe well together. I know it’s a reach, but it would be something to see most if not all in a single film or series together.
That was INCREDIBLE. I would have loved to be in that room! The conversations were so informative and insightful on their incredible careers. Hearing Andrew Scott and Colman Domingo share their thoughts about "Opening Out" actors was something very necessary.
This was the best round table EVER I thoroughly enjoyed every second of this interaction and you can genuinely feel the positive energy bouncing off the screen (I can only imagine the energy sitting down at that table in person!!!) Love from Australia 🇦🇺 💜
As an Oil Painter and an Animator (Oil Painter since 2017) + (Animator since 2008), it's amazing to hear what Paul Giamatti and Andrew Scott said about wanting to be artists. Truly humbling!
What a beautiful moment. So much love and respect for each other. Someone needs to put them in a project together. There's something uniquely different about them. A beautiful chemistry. A cocktail drink that just makes you feel so excited about your life.
Robert Downey Jr., will win Best Supporting Actor award for sure at the Academy Awards. The performance he gave as Louis Strauss gave was very psychological and he kind of brought that battle of the minds when he challenged Robert Oppenheimer.
@miguelrosado6348 disagree. Ryan was basically playing an amalgamation of a few characters he played before. RDJ as Strauss was something we hadn't seen from him in a long, long time.
@@blairoutlan6042 Well, I can't engage in any conversation with you as your prejudice already stamped Barbie as a commercial, so it's pointless to discuss any ideas about the film with you.
These guys are phenomenal. I’m especially happy for Colman getting more recognition. Ever since I watched him in Fear the Walking Dead a decade ago I was mesmerized by him.. Happy to see him in more movies 🍿
The hosts in these roundtable are as amazing as the great actors. They asked great questions and they are extremely knowledgeable on the actors' work and career.
"If I wasn't an actor, I would probably be doing hard time." Probably the most honest answer to the final question, based on Downey's past drug fuelled craziness.
I am a former NYC theatrical stage manager, and I did a play with Colman back in about 2005 or so.

This is true, and every year increasingly so.... I just saw the Holdovers, which increased this very truth by a factor of... well, a lot.

"If I wasn't an actor I'd be doing hard time" sent me 😂😂
I mean where’s the lie? 😂
Over the decades have read a number of interviews with actors who were asked this question . The number that say they’d be in prison is huge
Andrew's point about the phrase Openly gay and saying bu bye to it is absolutely spot on.
Much love ❤❤❤❤
Exactly. I often come back to this interview to listen to it again, because he says it in the simplest terms possible: “park it” on the use of “openly Gay”.

Love Andrew Scott he seems like such a sweet soul ❤
Incredible round table…on every level: personally, professionally, etc.
Thank you for the pitch, Andrew! Sincerely, thank you!
An amazing group of actors on the roundtable, love the part at the beginning where they talked about connections they had in previous works!
This is by FAR the best round table I have watched. Thanks guys!
Andrew Scott's smile is so beautiful 😊😊🥰🥰
Coleman Domingo, THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU. For real. It is your world and we are just living in it. I love you; thank you.
Giamatti is INCREDIBLE!! All these guys are fantastic!!
Jeffrey Wright ‘s voice breaking when talking about his deceased mother made me tear up
Not to be dramatic but I’d die for Paul Giamatti
nope that's dramatic.
Robert Downey Jr., will win Best Supporting Actor award for sure at the Academy Awards. The performance he gave as Louis Strauss gave was very psychological and he kind of brought that battle of the minds when he challenged Robert Oppenheimer.
And he must win
I think Ryan Gosling in Barbie pulled something more difficult and special.
@miguelrosado6348 disagree. Ryan was basically playing an amalgamation of a few characters he played before. RDJ as Strauss was something we hadn't seen from him in a long, long time.
@@miguelrosado6348gotta be satire…. No way you think a commercial deserves any kind of reward.
@@blairoutlan6042 Well, I can't engage in any conversation with you as your prejudice already stamped Barbie as a commercial, so it's pointless to discuss any ideas about the film with you.
what a brilliant conversation. it FLEW by
Colman as Kang & Andrew Scott as The Beyonder are great cast imo
This was amazing!! I could easily watch 2 more hours of this.
This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen
What a wonderful conversation. This is what these roundtables are supposed to be. Thanks so much.
This might be the most fun roundtable I've ever seen. Now I want to see all these men in a project together. 🙌
"If I wasn't an actor , I'd be doing hard time" 😂😂 That's funny as hell.
Loved Paul since Private Parts & Jeffrey since Basquait. Fantastic round table.
These guys are phenomenal. I’m especially happy for Colman getting more recognition. Ever since I watched him in Fear the Walking Dead a decade ago I was mesmerized by him.. Happy to see him in more movies 🍿
The amount of talented actors here is amazing! Great interesting people.
There are so many moments from this that are absolutely incredible but as far as notes go.... "I don't believe the way you pour" is fkn amazing 😂
Jeffrey Wright is magnetic. I would love to just sit and listen to any stories he wants to tell.
The hosts in these roundtable are as amazing as the great actors. They asked great questions and they are extremely knowledgeable on the actors' work and career.
love coleman so much been following his career for so many years. insanely talented artist. glad he's getting more recognition
This round table is my happy place! So great the camaraderie between these men
Wow what an amazing interviewer. So well prepared with all the research and great questions. I loved every second of it.
"If I wasn't an actor, I would probably be doing hard time." Probably the most honest answer to the final question, based on Downey's past drug fuelled craziness.
