Charlie Hunnam on Panicked 4:30AM Email to Jimmy Kimmel & Being Very Sick on Set in India

Charlie talks about his amazing new pair of Jimmy Kimmel pizza crocs (benefitting Children’s Hospital Los Angeles), feeling like his last appearance on the show was a total disaster, sending Jimmy a panicked email afterward, making “Sons of Anarchy,” his new show “Shantaram” on Apple TV+, filming in India, smoking weed with spiritual gurus, and getting very sick while on set.

Just met Charlie on the streets of Pittsburgh. What a kind guy. He let me take a selfie with him. Tried not to take advantage of the moment bc I can understand people harassing celebs. If you’re reading this Charlie, thanks for your time!

[@bsoxman7]

I'm in Pittsburgh - I'll be keeping an eye out!

[@brittneyperry2489]

So jealous. I don't live in Pittsburgh (about 45 minutes south), but I do go to Pittsburgh at least once a month. Would love to just randomly meet Charlie one day. I'd have asked for the picture as well; Charlie seems as if he genuinely cares about his fans and respects them because he feels the fans got him to where he is now. I am sure he did not mind.

Does he currently live there?

[@deboraasconflorian5086]

Me gustaria conocerlo 😢 aunque sea un saludo

[@ashjonah32]

I just met Charlie tonight in the restaurant I work in, he’s been at Liverpool Comic-con this weekend and came in after it was finished. He had pictures with all the staff and spoke to us for a while with his mum and partner, nothing was too much trouble for him. And I have to say, he’s one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Super polite and gracious. I’ve met a quite a few celebrities in my time and he’s definitely in the top 3 for being just a normal dude that enjoys chatting to his fans.

[@stephanieconsi4825]

That is so nice to hear. What does he look like in person? His girlfriend? They are a beautiful couple.

[@aah729]

I don’t know why he’s so apologetic about the last interview, personally it was one of my faves of him. He’s always so relaxed and funny in his interviews, and tells great personal stories, like all his weird illnesses, the bug in his ear, confronting the burglar, Madonna, etc. And the fact he’s such a cat guy makes me love him all the more.

[@NY-rg9br]

Hahaha I haven't watched those interviews but that combination of topics made me laugh

[@jacquelinegonzalez105]

I love the Madonna story 🤣 I go back to it every few months. Especially after he now has a close working relationship with Guy Ritchie. I think it was on James Corden where it was revealed he spent time growing up playing chess online and revealed his player name is from a Wu song 🙌🏽 cemented his place in my heart after that 😂.

Still one of my favourite movies to this day. He is such a good actor and having grown up on both the US and the UK he can play characters relatable to both cultures which I find incredible. I can't relate to most American characters my age.

Wish Charlie Hunnam made a mention of the precedent of the series 'Shantaram'. As the story goes, Johnny Depp, riding high on his recent films being successful (late 90s - the 2000s) was to star in the film version, to be directed by Meera Nair. But his asking salary was close to or higher than the film's budget. So, it was shelved for another time, another ensemble...

[@mark11967AD]

Charlie Hunnam similar to say Bryan Cranston at his core is partly ingrained in a legendary seminal character, but there are so many other roles that could convert that essence into something else very entertaining and memorable. It’s too bad everything today is so much about money and marketability rather than simply creative license. Otherwise surely those two would have made some more really memorable roles. Hopefully this will be one of those.
