Everyone should see this interview. What a positive, intelligent, beautiful and driven man. It shows that you can do anything if you put your mind to it and are willing to work hard. What a journey.
He was great on Ray Donovan. Excellent actor.
Great dude. Shocked at the low view count.
the lady could use some education of how to interview
shut up and let him talk, stop interrupting!
He was excellent on sci-fi horror "Settlers" [2021] with Johnny Lee Miller and Sofia Boutella, where he plays the bad guy, jhchrist, he is hot.
He is great in Berlin Station, and Ray Donovan.
How does it feel to only have a job because you’re diverse? Oh, and to have a hand in destroying Tolkien’s legacy.
This man works 10x harder than most people. You watched this interview of a boy who started in dire poverty, worked to become a skilled athlete to get a scholarship to school, then bested that school even though he probably didnt have the best education nor spoke the language natively. And got into NYU? And you decided he got a handout?? Shameful. Where would you be with those circumstances.
You’re aware there are brown people in Harad and in Rhun? You don’t think out of 4 ages and thousands of years of history. There was a brown elf? Fake fan.
it’s not his fault the showrunners can’t write sthg decent. he is actually one of the best performances in that show.
Keep crying sad haters 😂
@@monicad99 I was just thinking this. He feels more like an elf than most of them...he actually acts like he is thousands of years old. "Elven memories do not fade."
