Bold sketches from both Banderas and Colbert; taking on Picasso’s art style while being timed is no simple task! 🖊 We love hearing about how the role of Picasso informed Antonio, just as his masterful portrayal in Genius: Picasso impacted us.

[@AveenFernando]

Please do Leonardo Da Vinci as the next genius in the next genius series

@@AveenFernando YES! Please

[@Nexus-ub4hs]

Great to see Banderas, lovely guy. We all get older folks, he’s still handsome and moreover has an awesome personality

[@pattym307]

Oh he is a wonderful actor and beautiful man. Yummy.

[@SubscribersWithoutAnyVid-qf2vn]

Yeah agree

[@jacklent353]

Jackie chan is 64

[@zyxw2024]

December 2617 It states here that Jackie Chan is age 64. I'm age 64 too. Him & I are the same age. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_Chan

[@aditisk99]

And awesome voice.

[@6rockinrobin]

See how beautifully he's aging? Just sitting there, looking fine & letting us enjoy his lovely accent...

Aw, I love when people say they like spanish accent because I'm spanish and I really don't like it xd

[@supersquare]

I din't know Banderas much outside his films but he seems like an absolute joy to be around! Wonderful interview

[@jayteean]

Antonio is really an all-round nice gentleman. Years back, I stayed in a home where there were pictures on the wall of Angelina Jolie, Banderas and other casts members including the host. Found out from them that they were indeed wonderful people.

[@claytonis1]

His voice just soothes my soul. I also want to re-watch Zorro now.

[@humb1s3rvant]

Just Killing Time don't just talk about it, do it man

[@Patizm]

Antonio screaming „It’s a Picasso!” after drawing Stephen, is probably the sweetest moment ever aired on this show 😊

[@totalt6600]

The life of Picasso is certainly a heck of a story.

[@SubscribersWithoutAnyVid-qf2vn]

Yeah the guys a weirdo

[@twoscoops4181]

The Life of Pablo is certainly a heck of a album.

[@aditisk99]

So true.

[@Patizm]

He deserves everything! A brilliant human being 🙂

[@justynakrygiel9169]

'Dad I can't go to my mother with the handcuffs' 😂❤

[@CAP198462]

There’s an even more well known story about Picasso. During the Spanish civil war the city of Guernica was bombed by the condor legion, an event Picasso painted. At a showing a German diplomat said, wine in hand, words close to “who is responsible for this horror,” to which Picasso said “you are.” That would have been nice to see.

[@holaCarolina]

CAP198462 Yes...that would be nice. I'm sure they wouldn't leave it out.

[@mlfeathers7527]

CAP198462 great story.

[@gerrynightingale9045]

The "Condor" air-element were there at the 'request' of Franco (who in modern terms would be described as "Hitler's bitch") and the idea that Picasso or ANYONE else could 'insult' or 'demean' in any manner the actions of the 'Reich' and 'walk away' is just as you wrote...'a story'.Had Picasso actually made that statement...his corpse would hanging in Guernica minutes later!

[@MTMF.london]

@Gerry Nightingale. He painted the destruction of Guernica in France.The showing could have been elsewhere and much later after the war.

[@gerrynightingale9045]

Yes, of course it 'could have been after the War'...(I have extreme doubts that it would've occurred during the War!) And the 'attributed remark' to any German in 'Reich occupied territory' by Picasso is rubbish! He would've been executed for it...therefore since he survived the War, the 'statement' was never made.

[@manipuco23]

Picasso is possibly the most important person of the 20th century... there was a time when we celebrated creativity with respect.

[@robertkielty5094]

Stephen Colbert is just getting better and better. A great interview in equal part down to Antonio being who he is and Stephen letting us find that out by giving him the space to talk. Perfect.

[@MincedMeat_6]

He's such a pleasant guy . A pleasure seeing him.

[@cougargrrrl]

Wow! That scene he acted at 4:47 was sensational! He is truly amazing! A pleasure on and off scene! Thank you Antonio!

[@meemoo9693]

He’s such a delight ❤️

[@serbowdster2311]

Even though he’s a few years older now. I’d still part with my money for another zorro film. Nobody will ever play that role any better than the legend that is Antonio Banderas.

[@lizallen4713]

Still a handsome, classy. talented guy after all these years.

[@oxnardmontalvo9335]

Now THIS is an interview! good job all i approve.

[@6rockinrobin]

THANK YOU!!

[@TheNumerum]

I didn't think I was going to love this interview as much as I did, fucking loved it.

[@sebastianelytron8450]

Better than the Comey debacle for sure

[@SubscribersWithoutAnyVid-qf2vn]

I liked it

[@zsk8301]

Watch Banderas on Craig Ferguson. That older interview is less serious, but quite enjoyable as well

[@marias7599]

I love his "I got you!!! Haha. He's always been a sweet guy.

[@justpeachy3583]

I am a painter, and very happy to see an actor like Antonio portray an artistic genius like Pablo Picasso. I approve!

[@cydonianknight2677]

Spanish people ALWAYS give character to stories. I love it ❤

[@youmeuswe9723]

Totally Dignified. Love Antonio~ Such a Classy guy.

[@januarybaby1063]

What a lovable guy

[@elizabetha3936]

He directed one of my favorite movies it's called "Crazy in Alabama". I'm thankful that Colbert let Antonio do most of the talking in this interview.

[@HansLandaNaranja]

I really liked this interview, well done!

[@jasonbean7296]

"Once Upon a Time in Mexico" is still one of my favorite films.:)

[@Seraphvonteschen]

Jason Bean yes awesome movie!

[@MichaelBerthelsen]

Not even close to the two first movies...

[@collybeans586]

Dude !Desperado! you mean..

[@DeathBringer769]

The whole trilogy is awesome.

[@sohaibafourid]

That crowd needs to be educated about Flamenco, you don't clap like that in the presence of a spanish guitar, you just listen

[@richardwhite688]

Sohaib it actually wreaked the lovely sounds of the guitar. I would have loved to have just listened to the music.

[@alexortiz9157]

Omg it was the whitest thing ever I loved it in an ironic way

[@jacobandrews2663]

Alex Ortiz TF u talking about bro, Spanish people are white. Spanish= Western Europe= Europe= White people. TF you on 😂😂

[@garrusn7702]

Alex Ortiz spanish people are white.

[@jena6587]

Jake Andersson So all Europeans are white?!? Gtfoh! 🙄

[@jenvanderheijde]

Antonio’s own life, his anecdotes, like his little brush with the Franco’s police can make a very good movie, too.

[@sterlincharles8357]

Yes! One of the first. They should have also mentioned him in desperato, such an amazing movie

[@GWestNorthside]

Sterlin Charles. The movies mentioned were a weird choice in general.

[@Serai3]

Anybody remember _Mambo Kings?_ Now THERE was a performance. Not many actors can do such a great job without understanding A SINGLE WORD of what they're saying!

[@AnibalMirandanibito]

Finally a guest we can lean something from as against the hordes of people who have nothing to say but tell stories about their kids

[@acepc2]

Loved this guy since I saw him in once upon a time in Mexico, viva Antonio Banderas! This guy ages like fine wine

[@BarbaraRomano-akatropicgal55]

Great Interview! I think he did a fantastic job in Mambo KIngs. His pain and emotions really hit you. Seems like a really nice and sincere man. Wish him all the best.

[@Kanggaxx]

I fucking love this show. What a great, fun way to end an interview.

[@DJames-fn3cl]

Articulate, intelligent, charming. I still can't believe he wasted so many years with Melanie Griffith. I hope his life "esta muy contenta ahora". Thank you for all of your good work.

[@mlfeathers7527]

D. James why “wasted”?

[@deborahhoffman7394]

D. James Just couldn’t see those two together.

[@DJames-fn3cl]

Hi, Deborah. And to be fair, men will be men, and often use their penis for a brain. Happens to the best of them!!

[@maxamon906]

Well he wasted his time with a known drug addict, alcoholic, spoiled brat who took half his fortune and is asking for 60 grand every month. Why did he ever get with that trainwreck only he knows.

[@ricardosoto5770]

They had a beautiful daughter.

[@vmwindustries]

What an amazing, intelligent man Antonio is!

[@JonKonLGL]

This is so wholesome, what wonderful human beings

[@TheNumerum]

I fucking love this interview, Antonio telling those stories about him and Picasso was fantastic! I even had to repeat the entrance.

[@kirkhammet9171]

wow I grew up watching this dude... DESPERADO is still one my favorite movies of all time

[@funnyusername8635]

I haven't seen this guy in years. He looks fantastic!

[@subzero4790]

The guy is really cool, better than in movies.

[@1972juankarlos]

He’s still so handsome! I can’t wait to see his portrayal of Picasso

[@juliebryant2875]

He looks so great! I’ve been watching his movies my entire life.

[@antoniobanderas5923]

Thanks for watching my movies...where are you commenting from?

[@chinchillahats4907]

He’s such an adorable person ☺️

[@i143icecreams]

I’ll still love him no matter what. He just aged beautifully like a nice 🍷 wine

[@clothilde1623]

Christ I could listen to Antonio Banderas allllll day. His performances in _Desperado_ and _Evita_ contributed so much to my sexual awakening.

[@AK907guy]

Such a cool guy, never change Antonio!!

[@carmeespinal7772]

Sé poco de inglés. Estudié 7 años francés y uno de inglés. Pero me gusta escuchar al señor Antonio Banderas 😊. Lo encuentro muy divertido y original. Siempre es un placer escucharlo. Me río un montón con el. Ha de ser muy interesante tener un amigo cómo el. Fantástico. Super divino.❤😮😅😂

[@danielcliment8251]

What a nice guy Banderas!!!! I miss my home country Spain....! Far away here in Australia.

[@hillside127]

This was a really great interview, I love how they both had the same idea for the sketch!

[@NafaratMiyaMiya]

What a character! he seems so much like the characters he plays...I'm looking forward to seeing this!

[@Pedro-tl7jg]

I love antonio.. so humble...

Damn, the man is gorgeous on every level! Age only makes him more interesting. 😍👌🏻 And he was phenomenal in _Dolor y gloria_ ! I'm glad he recieved his overdue recognition in Cannes lately with the prestigious Palme d'Or (golden palm). Verry deserved! 🌴👏🏻 By the way, my American friends, for whatever reason Colbert keeps talking about Málaga like it were some unknown Spanish hicktown, it's... really not! I'm not Spanish but Málaga is well-known among tourists as the second biggest city of Andalusia and a vacation hotspot. 👌🏻

[@christyhaury755]

All ways been my crush since JR high now he's older even more handsome still is my crush im 43now. his one them person that has good heart nice guy❤❤

[@martinaee]

Oh man... I actually think this might be good. I haven't seen a good painter/artist movie since, what, the Pollock or Kahlo movies?

[@FreakieFan]

martinaee Mike Leigh's Mr. Turner was very acclaimed?

[@thetrustysidekick3013]

I watched that Kahlo movie a long time ago. It was pretty good. Alfred Molina was great in that movie.

[@MultiKarola]

Goya with natalie portman is marvellous

[@MultiKarola]

Pollock with ed harris fantastic and oscar nominated My VINCEnt is a must see🌹🌹🌹🖤

[@karinamadeus6418]

You have to see Vincent!

Fell in love with him in the mid 80s thru his Pedro Almodóvar movies.

I am such a big big fan of Antonio Banderas 💖💖💖

what an adorable man

This man has everything a human should have. I love this human.

Two nights in a row with actors from the Spy Kids franchise. Last night, it was Alan Cumming, and now Antonio Banderas.

[@AhmadAli-bs7ei]

He is one Hollywood actor I have loved always. The guy has style and class..and by the way Once a Zorro always a Zorro.

[@shundamonique8237]

I love Antonio Banderas, I always had a crush on him

[@streettipwithjcfrombeantow4306]

Street tip with jc from beantown...God is faithful

[@Serai3]

Malagueño! Ay, Antonio. He came up with one of the best reactions I've seen. In that movie with SJP, there's a scene where she's going on about being shy, and says "You're so passionate!" Antonio gave the BEST eyeroll. Still cracks me up!

[@rickwalker4516]

Antonio Banderas is still the man

[@psquared015]

Such great interviews lately, absolutely loved this one! Antonio seems like such an fascinating and fantastic guy, and Stephen was amazing as usual

[@charlieq2012]

whao. This is some kind of new ASMR. I feel relaxed listening to this.

[@BrigitteVanzonhoven]

The tv show is so good. And banderas is brilliant in it. A must see for sure.

[@augustinf]

Here I am, living in Malaga, watching Steve screw up with the name of my City :p

[@nula14]

I know that's bad ... but you've just screwed up Stephen's name. Furthermore, your city is spelled "Málaga" ;-)

[@Angel-vt1ro]

Wow i remember when i would watch his films as a kid This man is a og

[@uwiblue]

💕❤️¡TE AMO, BANDERAS!💝

[@denniscontreras]

he's old, but still very good looking

[@uscman]

Jazzlex how old is he?

[@uscman]

vivthetartan HOLY FUCK!!

[@sevillabonita1980]

C'mon, he is not that old, it just he is still with the Picasso grey hair that makes him looks older

[@jescareno8332]

People are saying he got old. Well god the dude is 57 yrs old. People get old, if anything he looks pretty good for 57.

[@margaritam.9118]

J Escareno I agree.

[@mayabonvoyage2527]

Love Antonio, great actor! My dad is his doppelgänger ☺️

[@EzraAldiWibisono]

I guess the "No clapping during Flamenco" sign didn't light up huh

[@angelgilvallejocarballosa3390]

Bueno , tampoco lo que estaba sonando lo era. Los Estadounidenses aún no diferenciáis melodías Hispano mexicanas con el flamenco... Eso no era flamenco.
