A few weeks ago i was waiting for a friend to arrive outside a theatre in London. Michael Sheen came round the corner and stood across from me. I tried to pretend i hadn't noticed to give him privacy but i think he spotted that i saw him. But then he facetimed his kids to say goodnight. It was so obvious how happy he was to see them. Seems like a good dad and man to me.
I tried being polite like that with a small celeb in Australia, but she spotted me and came running across the road and gave me a big hug and insisted we take a photo together. She's hilarious!!
What I admire most about him is that he is not a red carpet philanthropist, but a true humanitarian, and a badass one. He is an idealist and a dreamer but when it comes to action, he is always at the forefront. Kudos to him and kudos to his partner, Anna, too. Not everyone would have the courage to follow their partner into such a risky adventure and 5:11 at such a delicate time! She must be a truly loving and selfless person and the fact that he has earned so much trust and love is just another demonstration of what a man he is. They were meant to be together, I wish them all the best!
He such an amazing person and and incredible actor! I don't understand why he isn't covered in awards from head to toe... Or rather, I understand that he is too exceptional an artist to be commercial
He is such an incredible human being and an example in so many ways, even indirectly: the simple fact that he exists and is out there making the world a better place with his earnings and his commitment, exposes by contrast all the falsehood and hypocrisy of all those rich privileged people who make excuses and just throw a few coins to the poor only when there is a photographer
What an incredibly open and inspiring interview. In a world where we are bombarded daily by such cynicism and negativity, I totally agree with Michael we should shine a light on the good and the positive as much as we possibly can. Diolch yn fawr iawn iawn Michael.
He is, of course, an admirable and inspiring person. He can express himself in an incredibly likeable way. Not to mention the fabulous voice, which would have made me look forward to listening fairytales, as a child. I think what everyone can take away here is perhaps the joy of such great personalities, but also what Michael addresses in the interview. That everyone can be their own version of an inspirational person. Maybe not everyone has such a voice :) but the world can be enchanted in so many ways. Cheers to the positive. Thank you for the lovely interview.
Michael Sheen inspires me to wake up and keep moving forward. Hes a very humble man, a talented actor, and a charitable human being. Michael is kind and strong and it warms my heart to see him speak so freely and honestly, speaking from his heart, about his experiences, influence and support. Thank you Michael, we love you very much 💜
What a incredibly generous man Michael is with his time, his energy and his wealth. To give away money to help people in his area is amazing. I’m sure those people will be forever grateful.
A wonderful actor and a great guy, always so natural, what you see is what you get. Totally agree about all the negative "news" we're bombarded with, particularly in relation to climate change. We have to hunt for the stories offering innovative solutions, they're never included in the news. I love his optimistic positivity and you can tell from his eyes, this lights him up inside ♥
This man is beautiful in so many ways.❤ The masterful acting, the emotional maturity, the sometimes feral humour, the obvious intelligence and the kindness- I could certainly go on for a long time. On a more shallow note he is REALLY gorgeous, and that voice is like dark honey and does things to me. But most of all this man is a true inspiration, and I really see how he is inspiring others to do what they can to make this world better. Michael Sheen, you wonderful human being, your Aziraphale is showing! ❤😊
@@kateking3953 This exactly. At the time when he was with Rachel McAdams and Sarah Silverman, some people wondered what they (and other attractive women) saw in him. It's this. He may not be conventionally hot, but he is so attractive inside and out - the kindness, the humor, the intelligence, the determination, the down-to-earth attitude, the honesty and fearlessness in putting himself out there, warts and all, not to speak about his handsomeness and that voice. I rather wonder why people wouldn't be attracted to him. What a man indeed!
The Welsh Parliament should create awards and give the top award to Michael. I know he returned his MBE, but we have to show our appreciation to him as a nation. He is just the best...didn't much like his portrayl of Aneurin Bevan though tbh,
Why do you say Hollywood actor?. He's a British actor. Highly recommend Nye, he's doing that again next year, it's a wonderful performance. Lovely interview. What an amazing thing he did, giving all his money away like that.
What an amazing story. The part about putting all that money into a charity event really brought tears to my eyes. I agree with the perspective that you are as old as you feel and should never assume that you can't do things. However, getting to the age of 50 is very different for men and women. Men can have children after 50 and it is more normalised for them to date people well below their own age. Women will have hit (pre)menopause by then and can't start a new biological family. So big difference between the sexes. However, this is definitely a wake up call for anyone who considers themselves old: try new things and see where it leads!
Am I the only one wondering who drinks a soda drink while someone else has orange juice.... Visually I'm annoyed as I'm questioning what time this was filmed lol
That's exactly what he said, genius, that thanks to his work he has the opportunity to earn large sums of money, so as long as he can, he wants to invest his wealth in projects that help the community!
Millions disappear quickly when there are so many people in need. He's helping homeless and poor people in his hometown, giving back to the community that raised him. That's why he's "not for profit." They need him now more than ever now that Tata Steelworks is closing, the main source of income for a lot of families in Port Talbot. He's attempting to keep a sinking ship afloat the best he can with what he can.

I don t think he’s too bothered about awards. He gave his OBE back. He’s a socialist.

So true!
Unaware then of the women he’s been into
@xlxfx Gorgeous, intelligent, strong, successful women? I am very aware of this, thank you, big fan of them all
Very talented but humble with it very real loved this interview.
Michael is becoming one of the persons I am inspired by. Can't thank enough Good Omens for having let me know him ❤

What a beautiful and inspiring interview….thank you! ♥️
Excellent interviewer who let Michael share his amazing story. He is a wonderful actor and person. Hope for Good Omen 3.

As a Welshman, he is a national inspiration.
Such a lovely interview

This is the most wholesome video on the internet

Just love this man, what a great attitude, and to lose what he had but gained so much from it
I agree with so much of what Michael says. Great wisdom! Great man!
Beautiful person, amazing actor
Fantastic man 😍❤
Amazing Mr Sheen, great inspiration................"give them sugar boys!!!"

Beautiful! Thank you
Truly amazing man.
what a blessing and example to all of us. well done Michael!
Michael's answer to the cliché "what would you say to your younger self?"
"Don't listen to me"
❤😅❤😅❤😅
michael sheen is the best
His role as Brian Clough was quite simply... a masterclass 👏
One of my favourite actors! 🙂
This guy is a fantastic actor! So talented!
Inspiring guy. No wonder he's Welsh.
Lovely Ben and Micheal. Thankyou ✌️
Amazing person ❤❤❤
Feel like Ben should do a podcast doing interviews like this - would be great to hear him really get into it with people in relaxed long-form.
If i was Kate I'd be living in regret, what a great man !!
What a fantastic guy, we need more people like this in the world and less people interested in ONLY themselves X
Man's a saint, great advice at the end
Michael Sheen and Martin Sheen, two absolute gems of human beings. Must be something about the name Sheen ( although Martin was really an Estevez😀)
Michael Sheen is correct be kind and compassionate
Top guy is Michael and he’s welsh......
He is like the embodiment of Rudyard Kipling’s ‘If’
No one knows about Heartlands which Michael in. Amazing amazing film
Watched it recently first time. Quickly joined my rotation of comfort films. So good!
I know about it. Love that film! Showed it to my mum and my friends, who love it, too.
The Welsh Parliament should create awards and give the top award to Michael. I know he returned his MBE, but we have to show our appreciation to him as a nation. He is just the best...didn't much like his portrayl of Aneurin Bevan though tbh,
What a bloke. Unbelievable
How lovely that in setting up Homeless People Football Michael changed his ownn life for the better too
Why do you say Hollywood actor?. He's a British actor. Highly recommend Nye, he's doing that again next year, it's a wonderful performance.
Lovely interview. What an amazing thing he did, giving all his money away like that.
Because he's worked in Hollywood, doing big American movies, and that's impressive, presumably
@@livb6945 Oh yes it's just a weird description I think, I'd get it on a US chat show.
The interviewer, I forget his name 🤔, is looking tidy. Martin Sheen is now a national treasure, I'm guessing.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I believe that Michael Sheen was doing the LORD’s work and will be blessed greatly for it. 🙂
As a Welshman bla bla bla he’s Welsh so I love him end of
Took me a minute to realize this wasn’t Andy Serkis
Those red chairs are comically small! They look like they’re having a children’s tea party.

Uk movies 💯🔥🔥🔥❤👍
Wow. Imagine putting everything u own into something for others. Shame on those not supporting him and willing to walk away.
ITV please employ a competent sound man, cant hear the guest.
@This Morning - Poor stereo balance for a broadcaster. UA-camrs have better tech skills.
looks like primary one seats
Why did you make the thumbnail look like he’s tugging him off? Michael seems pleased by it, don’t get me wrong…
Who is the interviewer?
Ben Shephard. Presents a lot of British TV programmes.
@ thank you
@@tamsinjohnson1599 👍
A naff gameshow host.
for some reason i always get him mixed up with that bloke from Shaun of the Dead.
Am I the only one wondering who drinks a soda drink while someone else has orange juice.... Visually I'm annoyed as I'm questioning what time this was filmed lol
Why did he not even have a bit part in Gavin and Stacey???
I used to like Neil Gaiman……I’d be totally gutted if this wonderful man disappointed me!
Married to Kate Beckinsale for 8 years current partner Anna Lundbergh
@@mikewa2 Yes Kate Beckinsale was his life partner but they did not marry
terrible acoustics. Invest in some sound treatment
I think you'll find Michael Sheen is a Welsh actor and not from Hollywood.
Hollywood actor?
Sheen sounds damaged, interviewer sounds like a tight shirted control freak. Cringe.
Is this a joke lol. What a load of BS.
Why would this fellow intervening Michael wear such a dreadful shirt and make no attempt to hide such disgusting buttons.
Not really important though is it ? He obviously likes it !!
What's wrong with Ben's shirt?
@ it’s called Koumpounophobia !!
Ick age gap.
It's their age gap and their relationship, not yours!
She is a tough, intelligent and above all *adult* woman, he is basically a unicorn and I can tell you where you can stick the age gap
I c k people who patronize adult, independent women and their choices!
A complete nutcase……. and nothing will have changed. Relatively easy to do when you can always earn a few million.
So.... not a complete nutcase then.
That's exactly what he said, genius, that thanks to his work he has the opportunity to earn large sums of money, so as long as he can, he wants to invest his wealth in projects that help the community!
Millions disappear quickly when there are so many people in need. He's helping homeless and poor people in his hometown, giving back to the community that raised him. That's why he's "not for profit." They need him now more than ever now that Tata Steelworks is closing, the main source of income for a lot of families in Port Talbot. He's attempting to keep a sinking ship afloat the best he can with what he can.
Wow. What a hero, and I mean that. I wish I was half the man he is. 🫰
The best things in life aren’t things. Check out of the consumerism culture.
Fantastic how he gave away everything he owned and went in debt to help foreigners around the world. So British.
Gosh I love Michael Sheen sooo much
