  • Paul Mescal has earned critical acclaim and award nominations for his performances in "Aftersun" and the TV series "Normal People." Now, the Irish actor who's become a Gen Z heartthrob is front-and-center of "Gladiator II," Ridley Scott's sequel to his Oscar-winning 2000 epic of ancient Rome. Mescal talks with correspondent Seth Doane about acting alongside such icons as Denzel Washington; and what he first felt on stage in a high school production of "The Phantom of the Opera."

    Great interview! He’s seems so humble and kind! Deserves all the success!

    I know Paul Mescal from All of Us Strangers (with Andrew Scott) and the two of them are absolutely devastating in that film. A star is born.

      Yes! What an incredible film! The chemistry between them was so compelling, & their interactions felt so natural & genuine - truly outstanding!

    Aftersun and All of Us Strangers tore me up. Just watching certain scenes from both those movies make me bawl and I am in my 50s.

    Big fan since Normal People…. A wonderful actor! And seems like a good human too. He also reminds me of a young Roger Daltrey for any of you older folks … he’d be fabulous in a Tommy remake 😊

    From Normal People…to Aftersun, then All of us Strangers, A street car named desire in the theatre and now GladiatorII ….Mescal has covered many roles. Not bad for a young actor. Long may he continue 😊

    Wow his singing in phantom!! So good. He should do a musical. I dont think that was high school if it was in 2018? He wouldve been 21.

    I will watch This new Gladiator II bcuz Ridley Scott is a Film Icon and Russell Crowe nd the cast from the Original " Gladiator " are Exceptionally Awesome and Epic! That bar was set to high but anything is possible, I'm sure ur honored and we will watch to see if uve Made Ridley nd the original Gladiator cast proud....Stay Blessed

    Watch All of Us Strangers. Fantastic film. Paul and Andrew Scott have great chemistry on film. Maybe timing of the interview couldn't include, but Paul will bring his West End Streetcar Named Desire to Brooklyn Academy of Music in Spring 2025; hopefully a Broadway run the following season -- maybe that's where he'll get his high school high of performing again. He's also filming Merrily We Roll Along over 20 years (with Ben Platt and Beanie Feldstein) -- it seems like an odd throuple, but Paul's star will be shining even brighter by the time that one comes out.

    Tbh, I thought the original Gladiator was like a donut: delicious on the surface, empty on the inside. But I’ve seen Paul Mescal in some thoughtful dramas, and I’m interested to see him again.

    • @drewconway7135
      @drewconway7135 Місяць тому +2

      I agree with you, and I also think all those awards it won were due to the fact that there just weren’t any other strong contenders that year.

    I don’t expect it to be as good as the Original, but we’re only seeing it because of Denzel.

    • @gloryglory5709
      @gloryglory5709 Місяць тому +3

      Denzel was good but his role was laid back until the ending of the movie you will enjoy the complete movie

    • @beachgirl4

    Like Paul, Cool guy but this film ain't good. Crowe's character had no relationship with that woman. He loved his wife and his son. Lucious is not his son at all. Nonsensical
