@@lxuaes6915 Tom does not see Greg as a brother 😭 Matthew Macfadyen has said he sees both Shiv and Greg as loves of Tom and thats not even getting started of comparing them to Nero and Sporus lmfao
@@jsauceda9340 It's one-sided though, and Tom realizes that but he still wants Greg in his life. After the whole, "let's wrestle on the ground like chickens" incident, and Greg forcefully saying he doesn't want to be touched by Tom, I believe they have come to an understanding, and in the season 3 finale, when they hug it out, that was definitely a brotherly hug, and the reference to nero and sporus (specifically in the finale episode) was more tongue in cheek. Tom's reference to nero and spoorus in the earlier episode was more serious and a means of conveying his feeling towards Greg. I think at this point in the show, they're more like brothers.
He seems like such a sweet, gentle guy, which makes his short scene in the movie "The Assistant" so devastating that it literally brought tears to my eyes. Great actor; I'm glad "Succession" placed him on my radar.
i love the scene matt brings up where tom tells shiv they could just run away. it's a moment that proves he really loves her. i know that he gets caught up in the drama and power struggle like everyone else, and i do think WHO shiv is is part of what made him fall for her, but i also think there's a deep part of him that just wants to be admired and included. and he would be much happier looking for that outside of the roys, but i doubt he'll reach that point any time soon :(
yeah he's begging to be loved and appreciated just like the rest of the Roys. Shiv could really have gotten a good husband if she had known how to reciprocate but instead the only one who shows Tom even a little bit of appreciation is Greg lol
You know what? Kudos to the interviewer. It started out unpromising and sounding like every other superficial interview I've seen with poor Matthew re Tom. But then it got better. I loved that he allowed MM to expand a bit and talk about his first day filming and the nerves. Most of the time interviewers interrupt him, trying to inject their lame humor. He rarely gets to finish a long thought.
I love how the sweetest, chillest actors often depict the worst characters. I wonder if you have to be rock solid in your decency to be able to go ALL thew way out there like the characters on Succession do.
Weird. It's just like doing an impersonation. Not that it's easy to stay consistent but it's no different from doing sketches impersonating someone else. Remember, we grow up here exposed to American accents far more than Americans do English accents (not British as Britain is three countries). Not everybody is skilled or talented with affecting accents but they're not exotic to us.
They have coaches. Elsewhere Matthew says that both he and Sarah SNook would just have bad accent days from time to time. What is interesting is that they went with little to no specific Minnesota-isms in the accent. Tom is very generically midwestern in both his pronunciation and inflection. He IS, however, a twisted version of "Minnestota Nice" and at least the dog is named Mondale (who was a senator from MN).
Matthew's idea of a happy ending for Tom involves both Shiv and Greg... and that SORTA happened! We don't know how Shiv is going to function in such an altered power imbalance where the prize the siblings were fighting over to win Daddy's "love" simply no longer exists. But I think the Greg bromance is solid.
I don't buy this "tom sees himself as a father figure to greg" thing Matthew tries to sell, there's too much tension and innuendos going on, it's actually really weird and twisted to interpret what's going on with them as that after watching their scenes lol
I have impression Shiv is with him ,,just because", I don't see any love or true respect for Tom. She understimate him and doesn't give him value he has, meanwhile rising herself up to the stars in comparison to Tom. So wrong. Looking forward to see how story evolves.
Does anyone else miss Tom’s midwestern accent? I’m so disappointed that Matthew is British because i know once Succession is over i’ll never hear it again.
The build up for Tomgreg's love story is one of the most iconic things to ever happen
Roman and Gerri >
LITERALLY
They're brothers

Liked this interview a lot, thank you!

Best line? "And it says 'receipts' - but they're not, in fact, reciepts!"
What polyglot genius could crack your impenetrable code?
one of the best interviewers so calm, real and really informed questions

I have my heart set on seeing Tom and Greg together 🤭
its more of a one-sided bromance than a one-sided romance
@@jimzimmer2048 nah
@@jimzimmer2048 don’t think so, they would look so great together
@@jimzimmer2048 dude ur watching some other show. Both Matthew and Nicholas themselves are open about what exactly is Tom-Greg relationship.

Such an interesting guy. His voice is so soothing. Was shocked to find out he's British but then I was like "that checks"
Most unappreciated actor ever. He’s the crème de la crème. 💕(. Love the British accent!!! )
It’s an English accent !
...most ardently 🥰
the best moment was when Tom describes Greg to Shiv as being his "little artoo unit"
Like R2D2?
The fact that his British accent is so immaculate makes me wonder how he just change it for the show.

Alot of British actors do that i.e. Idris Alba

Someone who has been robbed of love in their life doesnt know how to give it.

Absolutely wonderful. Perfect.
I love the man from the day I saw him
matthew's voice just gives me the chills aaaaaaaaa~ ◜♡◝
Shiv doesn't love or respect Tom and it breaks my heart.
She loves him but doesn't respect him. Her love language is what she saw as a child from her parents
5:49 man i genuinely can't see a happy ending for tom. he really did take all the wrong drugs in the wrong order.
He won!!!
@@stacyb-r6931not really. He's a puppet CEO
1:45 foreshadowing the SEASON 3 FINALE
He'll always be Mr Darcy for me
Hombre perfecto!! 💯
I was today years old when i found out that this man is Mr Darcy, WTF 🤯🤯
What????
Tom is the future Logan.
You were proven correct!!!
I think I'm the only person who wants Tom and Shiv to stay together.
Probably. But, more than likely you're going to get your wish.
matthew sounds like tom is faking a british accent
I don't buy this "tom sees himself as a father figure to greg" thing Matthew tries to sell, there's too much tension and innuendos going on, it's actually really weird and twisted to interpret what's going on with them as that after watching their scenes lol
right??? maybe he doesnt know if tom&greg are going to have some kind of relationship
or maybe he knows but dont wanna spoil it
Sees himself as daddy maybe…
I just love shiv and tom idk why
Me too BUT I think Tom could do better possibly because I feel like Shiv takes him for granted
I can't stop wondering how someone as awkward as Tom could get with a nutcracker like Shiv 💀💀💀
The duality of man with these two replies
MacFadyen or MacFayden
Macfadyen
Also great username
MacFayden. Change my mind
Audio is out of phase my dudes

she's with him because he's her lap dog and does what she tells him to do. Her father overlooks her for her brothers. Tom is her safety net.
The sound is bad
Well this line was not important and had no further relevance to the rest of the season.
Wink wink
That accent. I did not know. 😂
Mr. Darcy 💖
