We need an interview with the parents of these child actors that transitioned well and their relationships. We are bombarded by the shortfalls but Tyler’s parents really pulled it off
I think for Tyler and many of those other child actors who also had positive transitions, they had very present parents. Those parents made sure their kids didn't get screwed over and nothing disgustingly drastic happened to them.
@@stopiwantoff7965 And they all had leading/main roles on tv shows (Tyler = everybody hates Chris; Tyrel = lab rats; Tylen = instant mom). So his parents did it 3 times!
I was thinking the same. Just them having an open dialogue and back and forth, discussing this or that, just like friends who stay in touch, and pick up right from the last
This is probably the first one of these where I genuinely feel like I’m listening in on two professionals who happen to be friends just talking. With other interviews you can just tell they don’t know each other, their work, and the experience feels like forced curiosity. This just flowed. Genuinely enjoyed watching every bit of this!!
I personally feel like they should do something worth the two actors actually know each other and the chemistry is way better but I understand the concept that producers are going
@@Savagemode09Totally agree with you! To your point: While I see the vision, it’s so much more conducive to the overall experience when both actors are able to ask informed and deliberate questions, leading to super thoughtful and rich answers that reveal the essence of how they approach their work and their motivations. The “three realities” bit by Anthony still has me buzzing. Obvi, fully aware the producers probably feed them some questions, but at least when they’re asking there’s a personal investment in getting the answer because that familiarity is present. When it’s two people that aren’t as familiar with each other, the questions not only feel empty but there’s a very clear lack of engagement from both sides and the segment seems to drag.
All black actors do not sound the same, look the same, etc. you can compliment a black person without comparing them to another black person or just another person in general. And I stg can y’all get a new person besides Eddie to compare us to
Tyler James Williams is so cool and down-to-earth. So is Quinta Brunson. No wonder they have great chemistry! I hope they have very successful careers!!
Anthony Mackie’s love language is roasting n I love it 🤣 I loved when he said once you on Law n Order you made it bc 🤣🤣🤣🤣 FACTS! Everybody watches all 3 shows lol
25:54 to 26:10 BINGO👍🏾!!! This is why the "dance" between Gregory and Janine works. It doesn't come off as desperation, but longing attraction. I'm so glad they're not rushing the characters into a relationship!!
What a fascinating and satisfying conversation between these two intelligent, gifted AND handsome actors. Loved hearing their experiences and especially about Tyler's transition from child to adult actor. I am in awe of Tyler's gifts and look forward to more exploration of full creativity. I can remember a great convo with Anthony's brother years ago, he spoke proudly of his little brother telling me he was about to blow up in Hollywood. He was so right. I wish Anthony and Tyler nothing but blessings upon blessings.
So true about Cree Summers. I point out her character in every animation by her voice to my daughter, who watches Different World with her grandmother, so she knows who's Freddie. Love this conversation!!!
@@Hosanie88 that’s sad he earned it and captain America/steve would had no issue with it and Bucky was frozen for a minute so he needs to just be happy he can help but he was forced to fight unwilling or not he just probably wants to chill🤣
Anthony Mackie.... I have always loved him as an actor. She Hate Me is an amazing movie. Tyler James....he is such a good actor as well. Im so glad he made it past being a child actor. This interview is something I didn't know I needed. Great job guys!
The ease and humor in this conversation is so good! I love the good-natured ribbing from Anthony to Tyler. 23:41 Started off so serious and had me cackling calling him "street meat" and a "hot POA". 🤣🤣🤣 24:55 I forgot about the BLSS sketch!
I really like how Anthony talked about Samoa Joe. This might be his first time acting in this environment, but what he actually does involves acting and entertaiment always. He is just amazing!
Tyler James Williams was apart of my childhood and Anthony Mackie became one of my favorite heroes and actors in the MCU, their respective conversations is genius. It’s like a Past meets the present type of thing.
I'm here for my husband, Tyler James Williams. I knew Tyler that he would be a star since Let It Shine, no shade to Everybody Hates Chris so thank you Quinta for giving him this role.
I would love to see this type of interview between two fashion designers. I think it would be great to hear a creative conversation from their point of view on collection concepts and working for design houses etc.
I love Anthony Mackie, but I’m mad that the falcon/winter soldier tv show only had 1 season. And I’m so happy for Tyler. I’m a true fan of Abbott Elementary fan. And I like that Quinta’s character has another love interest. I can’t wait to see Bette Midler play Melissa’s mom.
I usually don't watch these but this one utterly captivated me right through. Excellent video, Anthony and Tyler are awesome!❤ loved the Josh Segarra mention, love him as an actor, hope to see him next season, to give Gregory some trouble 😅
I applaud both of these gentlemen. I believe that it would be a good idea to play this clip in schools and colleges. It certainly challenges a great deal of stereotypes, portrayed in society. There are levels of conversation between these two that are beyond the words spoken. Tank you.
Finally thank you!!!! Thank you for keeping your dignity intact Tyler. Thank you Anthony for gettin straight to the point. People sold out to get where they got in their careers.

I say the same thing. Anthony is a great actor who has not received his well-deserved flowers. Fingers crossed.
it's so crazy to hear how *_deep_* Tyler's voice has gotten over the years ngl
So true. He's not the little boy from Everybody Hates Chris anymore.
Now everybody LOVES Chris 🤣
No lie, his voice is so deep, it sounds put on!!! 😅

anthony saying he didn’t even get nominated for a BET award LMAOOO 😭😭
I was done 😩😩😩
That took me out 😂
😂😂😂😂

lol the disrespect smh. And they call themselves black entertainment.
“I’m not even nominated for a BET award” 😂😂 YOU KNOWWW BLACK PEOPLEEEE
NOOO NOOO😂😂
Come to think of neither was Chadwick and he was black panther BET needs to do better 😂
😂😂😂
Childish had some words about that too 😂

Right! That would be fantastic to hear!

Megan Goode, Jurnee Smollet, and Dakota Fanning as well.
Tyler has 2 other brothers in the business
@@stopiwantoff7965 And they all had leading/main roles on tv shows (Tyler = everybody hates Chris; Tyrel = lab rats; Tylen = instant mom).

This is a conversation I don’t want to end. They just vibing n connecting
I was thinking the same. Just them having an open dialogue and back and forth, discussing this or that, just like friends who stay in touch, and pick up right from the last
Whoever's idea it was to pair these brothers up 2gether gets an A-star 4rm me. Both great actors
Seriously.. Orlando Jones as the dad and Anthony Mackie as the uncle who is the total opposite of Orlando! That would be perfection!
For years I was obsessed with the theory that Orlando was Tyler's real dad. You could not tell me otherwise 😂
Yes and Solange can play his daughter which would be Gregory’s cousin. That would compote the trifecta.
@@BreeStarEdits Nah. Solange isn't young enough to pull that off.

You must not have seen a lot of these.
Anthony Mackie really should be doing voice over work. His cadence is so Eddy Murphy-coded.
Yeah I hear a lot of Will Smith here
Yeah, he’s got that Will Smith energy. But like Anthony says, it’s a hard game to get into. Must be like the mafia or something 😮

They look nothing alike, but good convo

I thought he was low key mean, but you described it better
Yes being on law and order was/is a flex
“Made it bc”?
I loved that he called Ava his little boo 🤣
Same! Lmao
2 absolutely SOLID men 🔥 such sincerity and grace
I like that tyler, starting as a child actor, his craft has so much range. Even in a comedy he TAPS into all forms of acting.
25:54 to 26:10 BINGO👍🏾!!! This is why the "dance" between Gregory and Janine works. It doesn't come off as desperation, but longing attraction. I'm so glad they're not rushing the characters into a relationship!!
They're in one now! LOL! But yes waiting until now seems like it works
I legitimately want them to do something together. Like legit their chemistry I need to see it
They did Detroit
Hope they heard Mackie loud and clear, have him on the show.
anthony mackie is the guy everybody wants to show up at the party
One of the best Actors on Actors I’ve watched.

I love Anthony's 3 different realities concept for character.
LOVED it, it was a whole masterclass on acting in a few minutes!
This whole sit down I was thinking Anthony Mackie needs to do a cameo on. I’m so happy that he mentioned it 😂
So true about Cree Summers. I point out her character in every animation by her voice to my daughter, who watches Different World with her grandmother, so she knows who's Freddie.
Love this conversation!!!
So dope. I didn’t know she was in that space. I just know what Regina King did with Boondocks.
Give Anthony Mackie a Captain America movie with a good script PLEASE!!!!!
Him and Bucky had great chemistry and then Bucky was low key LIKING his sister I hope that show didn’t get canceled 😂
I loved it, but a lot of people didn't want to see him as Cap! ✊🏿
@@Hosanie88 that’s sad he earned it and captain America/steve would had no issue with it and Bucky was frozen for a minute so he needs to just be happy he can help but he was forced to fight unwilling or not he just probably wants to chill🤣
He’s in the middle of filming, if not already done filming it. And Bucky is not going to be in it
@@Hosanie88because Steve IS Cap. And Bucky got it before Sam, but they skipped that for reasons
Anthony Mackie.... I have always loved him as an actor. She Hate Me is an amazing movie.
Tyler James....he is such a good actor as well. Im so glad he made it past being a child actor.
This interview is something I didn't know I needed. Great job guys!
She Hates Me was an excellent movie! It's definitely a conversation for days movie. He killed it, and I'm glad he knows that!
The ease and humor in this conversation is so good! I love the good-natured ribbing from Anthony to Tyler. 23:41 Started off so serious and had me cackling calling him "street meat" and a "hot POA". 🤣🤣🤣
24:55 I forgot about the BLSS sketch!
That Barb vs Carb sketch is one of the funniest sketches of the past decade 🤣 how they kept a straight face is beyond me bc they were INSANE LMAO
Whoaaa 45 minutes went by quiiiick. These guys have natural chemistry. They should do a podcast or something.
Tyler’s facial expressions are gold. ❤❤
I LOVED this interview.
If Anthony Mackie made an appearence in Abbott it would be AMAZIIIIIING!!!!!
Really felt like two buddies just enjoying telling the stories of their awesome careers ❤
This was really a great interview. Tyler is very wise for his age - I offer advice to those who are paying attention.
i love how natural, professional, and insightful this interview was. had no idea i needed to hear these two connect but im glad i did!
What a beautiful conversation. It was nice to hear Anthony Mackie's New Orleans accent peek through.
I really like how Anthony talked about Samoa Joe. This might be his first time acting in this environment, but what he actually does involves acting and entertaiment always. He is just amazing!
My god, this is the most satisfying, powerful, and heartwarming conversation. Thank you, gentlemen.
This was such a rich conversation. Appreciate you both!
Fantastic pairing that makes for such an insightful conversation! 👏🏻
She Hate Me is my all-time favorite Spike Lee Joint. I went to the movies to see it. This entire conversation made me smile. Thank you!

Tyler James Williams is just phenomenal. I'm proud to share a Birthday with him Anthony is extremely underrated.
I love these two so much! Please have Anthony on Abbott Elementary! 😃
Rival Principal or Tatiana Ali's spouse..would be awesome!!
This was duo that so needed to happen! What an amazing, thoughtful, authentic and funny discussion! Love both of these talented brothers!
2 very solid actors who I have been following without realizing it for at least a decade of my short life. Excited to watch!
Sitting through 47 mins tells how much of a fan of these two I am😂
They converse really well! I really enjoyed listening to this
Tyler look so damn good.

I cannot believe we have Mackie for this. Thank you for this!
There is so much intellect and juice in this talk between these 2 wonderful actors.

Tyler James Williams was apart of my childhood and Anthony Mackie became one of my favorite heroes and actors in the MCU, their respective conversations is genius. It’s like a Past meets the present type of thing.
That was such a chill conversation. I bet it 's incredible working with them.
This was one of my favorite Actors on Actors! Love both of them and they asked each other such good questions!
Tyler really is a class act. This interview was very revealing about Anthony Mackie, especially the way he speaks about his alliance in Hollywood.
Anthony's a diva
I watched the whole thing and have no clue what alliance you're referring to. What do you mean? I'm lost.

What a great conversation, they both respect their craft so much. Also, give Mackie his BET already 😂
I learned so much watching this, I booked some classes for VA and acting. This just moved me
Thee most enjoyable episode thus far. I learned much & laughed hard. Thanks Variety for bringing these two guys together
I absolutely adored this interview. The discussion was so interesting and didn't feel too forced. Love Tyler and Anthony.
LOVED this, 2 great actors showing RESPECT for each other, Anthony Mackie and Tyler James are The Best.
listening and watching these, really inspire me. love the genuine conversation of two professionals who love their career
I had to watch this. 2 lowkey legendary actors. This interview felt like 2 homies chopping it up after running back into each other after 5 years.
Absolutely loved these two conversing. I need to see Mackie in wayyy more projects
The span of both of their careers and what it really takes to do what they do. I so appreciate them.
I’m screaming at this pairing!!! I love them both so much.
Tyler James reminds me of Will Smith in this interview. It's giving legend in the making.
I see it
AGREED!!
I kept saying the same thing through the whole interview. They could really do movies or tv together and it would work well!
It’s funny that you say this because I spent the whole interview thinking yet again that Will Smith and Anthony Mackie are really similar.
"Real recognises real"😅I love love love this conversation. Tyler is astounding and he's growing forward into a king
33:15 Anthony gives a MASTERCLASS in acting and breathing life into character using 3 perspectives method 🔥👏🏾✨
I love the back and forth with them. Just having dialogue and conversation. Just flowing off of each other ! 🤌🏾
Wow, this is gold. I could have easily watched another hour of this.
I'm here for my husband, Tyler James Williams. I knew Tyler that he would be a star since Let It Shine, no shade to Everybody Hates Chris so thank you Quinta for giving him this role.
I’m also here 4 him 2, and I couldn’t agree with u even more❣️
Wait, I also love Let It Shine and LOVED him in that! 😂
the are KILLING IT with these pairings
Growing up seeing both of these actors work, it's lovely to see them. 🖤
I just want to hear Tyler say “her beauty’s crazy”
I watch everybody hates Chris often; to hear how deep Tyler voice gotten with the same lisp it’s so crazy
Loved this interaction. To me these are one of two most respectable guys on TV. Keep doing what you're doing❤
