'Hollywood' Cast Jim Parsons, Darren Criss, Patti Lupone, Laura Harrier, More | Entertainment Weekly

Jim Parsons had and still has me SHOOK. He's all smiley and warm up there in his chat window. But wow...with a different hairstyle and eye color...he was something else on the show. Transformed.
SLone3251 *To be honest, I he looked so different that I assumed the cameras are what changed. I didn’t even know his real eyes are blue.*
So nice of Patti Lupone to spare some of her living legend time to do this 💛
I love how bored she looks in the first few seconds. She is not even looking at the camera. Never change Ms Lupone.
I KNOW RIIIIGHT?
This was a fantastic show! I was so sad to see that the critics weren't excited about it. It's a great story, the actors are all amazing, and making it a limited series was the perfect choice. Easy to binge and tells a full story with no expectations for more seasons. I recommend everyone watch it. As long as you aren't uncomfortable with some of the more mature themes I think it's something everyone needs to watch... Ryan Murphy has some wonderful ideas and this is no exception...tackles serious issues in a funny and moving way.
Such a good show. i too was surprised to see rotten tomatoes give it such a low rating. i mean just style alone should have bumped it up.
@@nrahman3439 I think people just didn't "get" it... Which is a shame. I also think that everything Ryan Murphy puts out will be compared with Versace. I think that's the killer in the end. That anything Ryan Murphy puts out especially if Darren Criss is in it is going to be expected to be at the level of intensity that versace was. And honestly, thst was one of those one off series that just worked. The cinematography, the intensity of the actors, the way everyone worked rogether, the way Darren embodied his character... That series was impeccable and really the perfect storm. Hollywood wasn't ever going to be on that level. That's why i try to go into each RM production with a clean slate. Hollywood was fantastic but with moat critics comparing it side by side to Versace I could see how they felt it fell flat... I just feel like it wasnt fairly reviewed.
Fortunately in our household we're not tuned in to "reviews" and we watched this because it looked interesting, we both love period pieces to start with. We loved this show and I'm really glad we watched it naively-- we hadn't heard a word about it so it all unfolded for us without any preconceptions. It worked beautifully for us. People saying it "wasn't true to history" or "didn't have a vision" are being silly. The whole show was the vision, and yeah, art can reexamine history-- it's not "rewriting" and expecting anyone to believe that's what actually happened. I tend to think that people who are upset with the show are the types who are upset with the idea of actual change, actual power being distributed differently-- perhaps they are the type of people who would have shoved the Peg reels into the fire. The set design and decoration was fantastic. Every single frame was a delight.
I think it's more that many ppl feel Ryan Murphy often tries to cover so many political topics in not necessarily the most thought out way? Glee's later seasons (where the political messages took precedent over the satire) are a good example of this. Hollywood was only 7 episodes and they covered so damn much from inter-racial relationships to feminism, to black civil rights, to Asian American civil rights, to homosexuality, to sexual abuse in the industry, etc...so everything felt kind of rushed and they really couldn't portray the topics with much depth-since he tried to cover so many. And, as a nbpoc, the whole "alt-universe where racism was fixed by white ppl in Hollywood" thing did kind of rub me the wrong way.
Don't get me wrong. I really really enjoyed Hollywood. It was fun. the costuming and sets were AMAZING and Patti Lupone stole every scene she was in. But, it very much felt like Ryan was white gay male-splaining racism. I enjoy Hollywood for its unapologetic Hollywood feels. But, I enjoy it for the spectle- not for the political message-and for a show that's supposed to be about the political message, that's not exactly a good thing.
@@maura0026 I don't agree with this analysis. I didn't watch Glee and had no prior knowledge of Ryan's work. I LOVED the way it was structured and unlike many I didn't watch ANY trailers or spoilers so I watched it from a completely naive point of view. The structure was intersectional-- showing the ways that race, sex, and class interact as oppressive systemic structures.
The fact is, when white people have all the power, it's going to take white people to change the system. And it wasn't only about "white people changing racism"-- there were Black (and Asian) people pressing the issue, otherwise what impetus for change would there have been? This show is speculative fiction-- what might have been, if only the racist lawyers (as portrayed which was quite realistic) hadn't actually gotten their way. And it's a good reflection of today-- racism isn't going to change until white people confront the racism of white people. It's UP TO WHITE PEOPLE to change it. Just as, sexism isn't going to change until MEN stand up to other MEN and demand change. So attacking a piece of speculative fiction that shows how that might work is counterproductive at best.
David Corenswet reminds me of Hollywood Golden Age actors he definitely fit for the looks and also he's really a good actor that shines in this series plus that voice and killer dimples. I really love Hollywood I laughed and shed tears. The cast are all great and portrayed their characters very well. I hope there are more seasons to come in the near safe future.
Yes so hot 🤤
Jim Parson's performance was absolutely brilliant. I enjoyed every scene that he was in
His dance scene is forever etched in my mind 😂
14:50 who is patti yelling at BAHAHAHA
Jeremy Pope is a beautiful man
Yes Jeremy is gorgeous 😍
Frankly: I really enjoy this "interview-format" more than the established standard ones in talk shows etc. Everyone in casual clothes and different environments and no "host" asking questions. No shining lights. No make up. No hysteric clapping and yelling audience. No "star" bullshit. Just humans talking about their experiences.
This is not meant to sound rude, but I think covid had helped create a likeable interview method for many people
Darren Criss with black nail polish 🔥🔥
I've said it once and I'll say it again: HOT
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more supportive and like kind cast ever !!
The cast is outstanding, a brilliant mix of newcomers, veterans and absolute veteran legends. Patti LuPone absolutely kills it - she steals the whole show with every scene she has and you will just crave for the next bit she'll appear. Holland Taylor was absolutely divide too. The show is beautiful, the costumes department, hair and makeup, just outstanding. The script could be better and depending on what you expected and wished for, the show will either surprise you or slightly disappoint you. But, I mean, this great cast and Ryan's whole team can never do wrong. I truly enjoyed watching this show.
One of the most amazing shows on Netflix and TV in general. It made me care for the characters, I laughed with them, cried with them and finally celebrated with them. They made me feel like I was on the journey with them, and that's what I want from TV shows and movies. Thank you to all of the actors and Netflix!
*I love how the women in this series supporting each other and achieving dreams together!*
Like if you agree with me
One of the best scenes was where Avis forgave the woman who had an affair with her husband and lifted her career.
that incredibly fond "stop it" to darren at 31:46 is such a mood
Keiku i see you everywhere, you are so cute
@@jesslouise8018 omg yeah im a bit obessesd lol
Darren really embraces the wasain queen he is in this show and I love it
Jim Parsons really was incredible.
can't wait to hear, “and the Emmy goes to Jim Parsons!” because he deserves it soooo much!!! 🙌
Darren Criss will forever be Blaine Anderson in my eyes.
Darren Criss will forever be Harry Potter in my eyes
Gleeks forever
I will never get why Gleeks loved Blaine so much.🙃
Andrew Cunanan: :((
Richard Ong second that
I want the dreamland hoodie 😭
I want it too
I binge watched this show, wow it was soooo good, I needed more episodes, a book, something
I NEEEED MORE!!!!!
Let's get this cast doing, "Thirst Tweets". #justsayin'
YES YES YES!!
I loved this! Jim Parsons was truly stunning. And just by watching him during this chat...what a lovely man. I see why he is unstoppable!
Jim Parrson's dance scene in Ep 3 is forever etched in my mind 😂
i watched on Netflix yesterday & really loved the series of "Hollywood" when Old Hollywood truth meets fiction in tongue and cheek way. I enjoyed it. My favorite from old Hollywood were Garbo , Vivien Leigh, Marilyn, Brando ,Taylor , Bette Davis
Please just give a seventh Emmy to Jim Parsons
And maybe the 8th, 9th and 10th too, just on trust! He deserves all the emmys!
THIS!!!!
Jake "It Was My First Time Being On A Ryan Murphy Set" Picking
Homeboy literally said that every time he talked. Hahaha
He literally said one time though, when talking about the set.
@@Avajuniorlord He said it every time he talked haha. Which was only three times I think maybe four.
Patti is such a legend! Absolutely adored Dylan playing Ernie, I hope he's up for an Emmy!
Darren is a sweatheart ❤️
I think one thing that I wish the advertisements really exemplified was the fact that it's NOT a history piece, that Hollywood is a vision of today's social justice in yesterday's movies. I didn't know that or hear that going in, and I think that causes a lot of audience members to not "get it." Even the Netflix description didn't explain that, and that does such a disservice to the show because people are confused when it doesn't match with their expectations, even if it is still brilliant!
id say the show, which was great, was using the recent tarantino trick of remaking history.
Going back to the 1940s? Harry Potter must've gotten another Time Turner y'all.
All jokes aside, I can't wait for the show. It sounds so interesting. So excited for Darren and all the cast members.
I watched the series. Lotsa fun! Great fairy tale ending. Everyone in it was fabulous, but Dylan McDermott stole the show for me. What a character!
Veda Dalsette *Not sure if you know this already, but his character is based on a real life person, who ran a real gas station with men that “serviced” celebrities. He wrote a tell all book on it and spoke openly, specifically because the celebrities he met were dead, so a secret like this can’t hurt them anymore*
This show deserves all the attention! Honestly is the best show i have seen on Netflix. CONGRATS ALL OF YOU GUYS! Love from México 🇲🇽 ❤️
Samara weaving is so cute and wholesome. Love how goofy she is! 💞
Wow...Jim looking like Clark Kent over here. Damn why is he so attractive?😂💜👍
if rachel berry and kurt hudson would know that blaine was in a show with patti luopone they would absolutely die
Omg I thought the same thing when I first saw this show lol
Kurt Hudson ??? You mean Kurt Hummel?
All the main actors performed their role with professionalism👍🏽👍🏽. Dylan McDermott was effortless, he was in a class by himself. 🤴🏼 Jeremy Pope and Patti Lupone performed superbly. 👏🏾. The entire cast was brilliant; they had me clued to the TV until 6 AM. David Corenswet , Jim Parsons, Jake Picking and Holland Taylor were truly convincing. Laura Harrier and Darren Criss took on their roles with ease, the chemistry was great. Last but not the least, Samara Weaving shone brightly even tho her part was small. Samara and Laura are two strikingly beautiful ladies. I wish the entire cast all the very best in their acting careers. Shine on guys & gals of #Hollywood 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
A little trivia: Old hollywood movies used their made up mid-atlantic accent for the purpose of having to receive a better and clearer enunciations from the actors through radios and TVs so that they could hear and understand it more. It's all about technicalities.
Just finished this and it was surprisingly entertaining and humourous. All the what-coulda-beens were wonderful. Came for Darren Criss, stayed for the story ❤️ 12/10 would recommend!
Omg I’m living for Darren’s nails!!!
MORE OF THESE CAST PLEASEEEEEEEEEE
I like Darren's tag ... Hollywood gets the "Hollywood" treatment ... the what if aspect, makes me hope that in an alternate universe something like this did happen.
im obsessed with this show.
Out of the cast Jim Parson's SO need the EMMY!
Couldn't agree more
Darren Chris is so 💓💓💓💓
David Corenswet
Laura Harrier as Joséphine Baker is a biopic would be something 😍
Dylan McDermott is godlike in every role he has to play
the cutest cast💛
Jim and derm just chillin’
I binged 'Hollywood' in one weekend on Netflix here in Australia. Every scene, every camera movement, every part of dialogue - the lighting, the music, the set pieces - oh my! 'Hollywood' is a series I will buy when it comes out on DVD, to add to my collection of extraordinary cinematography. If only the 'real Hollywood' could be like this happy ending - but I'll take whatever I can get. :) God Bless you all!
Binged watched the whole show last night! what a fantastic cast. Jim Parsons is such a great actor. hated his character but wow his portrayal was something else. Love how this show was written. Thank you Ryan Murphy 👍🏻
This cast is sooooo Gosh darn good looking! 😍😅😯
I felt scared and intimidated during Parsons scenes. It was so real and gut punching. I had to go watch a couple of big bangs to feel better.
I am amazed at the ignorant people who didn't realize that this show was NOT a documentary.
Spectacular cast, but the women's hats were off the charts.
I want more of this! It's fantastic! Please film more
OMG I love Darren so much 🥺🥺😭😭😍😍♥️♥️
I've watched three episodes and am totally enjoying the show!
Darren Criss in that hoodie 😍
Finished the show! Was great! Loved it
samara is gorgeous, and her accent 🥺
and laura too 🥺💗
"Generican." She's adorable.
this cast is so BEAUTIFUL
y'all i didnt realize that Ernie was played by Dylan McDermott??!!
Mindblowing. Slap some grey hair on him and he looked like a completely different person.
i need to see more of Joe Mantello, he has no social media! He is my favorite character :(
I had a little crush on his character.
Is he the older closeted producer? Very good in this role
Is Darren Criss hand gesturing like a mime on steroids just to show off his nail polish 💅?! It’s fabulous btw! 😉
lol.. he always wears nail polish also does a lot of hand gestures. still he's the hottest thing ever
Only know two of these actors because of glee. One because she was in a few episodes and one because I’m obsessed with his charm and cuteness.
@@lilymacdonald5225 I assume they mean Patti LuPone, who was mentioned multiple times and appeared in the season 2 nationals episode. I can't think of who else it could be.
@@elisgeorge2420 yh patti and DARREEEENNNNNNNNNN :)
I know all of them lol
This was a really good series, very enjoyable.
I just finished the show and I’m in love with it 🤩
David Corenswet could be the next Superman
Anyone else just watch cause it has Darren cross and David cornsweat
Mikey Z only people I care about 😂
Literally the only reason i watched it lol
I had watched because of Darren Criss however, was so happy to see Dylan McDermett as a wonderful surprise in, "HOLLYWOOD". Didn't know he was in this. I've grown to appreciate ALL the cast in this and can't wait for season 3. BTW, when does it come out?
two words....... Darren Criss :)
Haha DO NOT Call me out so publicly...
Just finished watching it! Soooooooooooooooo good!!! Patti Lupone stole it for me! I will be googling her after this clip!
I thought it was superb! Thoroughly enjoyed it.
My actor favorite is darren criss mon acteur favorite es darren criss
You know the actor really did great and brilliant when you felt something about it and that's actually what I felt after watching Jim Parsons's acting. He made me dislike his character because he's so good at acting! He made such an impressive way of bringing his character out of life
darren criss is always the leader
He wants to be one but it ain’t ! Cutting off ppl while they’re talking is not being a leader is rude and he can’t barely act ! But these other tree men they have a promising future especially Jake and Jeremy .
@@kalebseid3194 He can't act.. are you serious.. have you seen American crime story??
My distaste for the alternative historical timeline aside, the performances are all the rage! I just would love to hear how the casting came to be! I mean, I love all the new up and comers like Harrier, Corenswet, Picking, etc., the established (in their own right) actors like Criss and Parsons, and then the powerhouses of McDermott, Lupone, and Taylor in their roles! The acting from top to bottom was just stellar.
Binged it! So good!
David looks like he’s Henry Cavill’s little brother
And now he’s the new Superman. 🙌
Jeremy please come back to Broadway!!! Darren and Patti don't leave Broadway until I get to see you perspective shows.
David and Sam 😍😍
I hope this has sequels. I love this show and everything in it.
The entire show I kept thinking david is embodying jimmy Stewart
Great show. Just finished!
It's weird to see them with modern hairstyles, clothes and technology
This was amazing I loved every episode
Wished Joe mantello joined in too.
He was great in that well written part
Who else remembers Samara from home and away?
Fun fact. She’s Hugo Weavings daughter.
I never heard of her of seen her before, but she really impressed me. I thought in that scene where she does a screentest and midway through decides to throw it so the other girl can get the part, she was fenomenal. I suddenly thought wait who'se she? If I see she is in something, I'm definitely checking it out.
David corenswet.
Exactly!
I didn't expect to cry so much watching the show ajsdhakjshd
Loved everyone but Jim was my favorite even if his character was slimy A big step from Sheldon Nicely done
I could see like Darren Playing like Gregory Peck in a Roman Holiday remake
Cant believe i just found out about the show. fell in love with it & cant believe there's no season 2!! why though?
Darren could run me over and I’d say thank you.😍😂
i want a season 2 so bad god
A fantastic show! 🎬🎞️🍿
Wow. What an amazing show 🙏🏾🙏🏾. I wish it kept going.
Great show recommended everyone to watch Hollywood
ide walk a hundred to see Holland taylor and miss lupone !!
David Corenswet actually could pull off a Grace Kelly in a blond wig :)
