Conversations with Rami Malek of MR. ROBOT

Q&A with Rami Malek. Moderated by Zachary Quinto.
MR. ROBOT follows Elliot Alderson (Rami Malek), a cyber-security engineer who became involved in the underground hacker group fsociety, after being recruited by their mysterious leader (Christian Slater). The second season picks up 30 days after the now infamous fsociety 5/9 hack on multi-national company Evil Corp and explores the consequences of that attack as well as the illusion of control.

Honestly all fangirling aside, I'd like to just sit down with Rami and talk with him about everything. Having a thorough conversation would just be so nice. I could gain wisdom just talking to this man. He's so humble and intelligent. I love that for him.

[@laceyloops]

Same

[@thelilpumspi]

Rami's wisdom and ability to introspect on the spot amazes me! What a humble and dedicated actor.

Therefore, his coding language, is, the deep understanding of the industry he is in( coupled with individual values which add to his already amazingness), not C++, java, perl.. So on, and so forth.

Like me, just now, I have given you the keys to success with a nifty poem written in ruby, with just you in mind, though 95% of you won't ever know what it meant or ever even try to find out, which is why you will never learn the keys to success, ever. Much love to those who got it, and much love to the ones who didn't, because I now know I am a god and I choose to be with the peasants who are also gods and deny it, while we chill in our mansions in complete freedom, living forever through our courage, and care to define to you darkness' most feared weapon, so you can live as royalty as well: self-love." if not_understanding = true puts(effort + values) puts(answer_to_post) end #Hope you didn't stay in the last loop!

[@veronicael8919]

his laugh though xD yep I'm on a rami malek interview marathon after watching BoRhap, gulped the 1st season of Mr. Robot in 2 days and now calming myself down by hearing him talking - it's oddly soothing.

[@yassiec5294]

veronicael literally saaame 3 seasons in 5 days

[@sarahmusa4775]

Looool that's a great technique!

[@robertawilhelm7998]

Me too!!!

[@wonderful1957]

Finished the whole entire series in 4 days and a half

[@lemonlemon2884]

Interviewer: "Hi there." Rami: "Thank you"

[@voicenoteswithbrookewilliams]

lemon lemon haHAHAHA

[@BosCHJuli]

OIII MAN YOU CAN'T IMAGINE HOW HAPPY I AM SEEING TWO CRUSHES OF MINE FROM COMPLETE OPPOSITE PERIODS OF MY LIFE SIMULTANEOUSLY! By the way it's Zachary Quinto

[@voicenoteswithbrookewilliams]

his laugh makes me so HAPPY

[@Cassandra6]

Both Rami and Quinto are very intelligent, makes for a great interview :)

[@endlesssky6225]

Why does Mr. Quinto talk so much? It was inspiring to hear from Rami Malek that the impact of Elliot on the person watching is so important and rewarding for him . I wish I could tell him, that his portrayal of Elliot touched my soul.

[@yellowrubberducky81]

Several times Rami asks Zachary his opinion on a topic so it seems to me Rami would like a more conversational chat here.

[@shynessangel85]

I used to have the biggest crush on Zach when he played Sylar in Heroes and now i have a huge crush on Rami... so, i'm really enjoying watching them both interacting with each other! 🙌🏻

[@DwynMary]

Exaclty! The only 2 actors I've EVER had a crush on are these two :D But Rami wins it.

[@Research_This62]

This is a great format. An actor interviewing another actor just results in a more in depth convo 😍.

[@SAGAFTRAFoundation]

Thank you Mason for watching! We agree :)

[@lehcaraz1]

When you realize you have been grinning like a happy fool all the way through the conversation! Rami is the most inspiring, attractive, intelligent actor I have ever seen.

[@totallynollie10]

I love how the last bit is just them complimenting each other and leaving the room with such a warm feeling :) It's great to see such talented actors are good people too

[@clangtheo9208]

Wonderful to hear him speak of how he relates to Elliot as a character and then how people who relate to Elliot make the role rewarding. All the awards for him for BoRhap 🤞

[@KateGekk]

I would love to say to him personally: please accept yourself completely. You are a gorgeous person with a beautiful soul. I hope he realizes someday how great he really is.

[@voicenoteswithbrookewilliams]

KateGekk Right!!

[@sarahmusa4775]

but how do u know he doesn't already? ;)

[@apseudonym]

he's a taurus. they all have an internal struggle between loving themselves and hating themselves

[@purplemaze7733]

I'd love to see Rami as guest host for SNL. That would be a treat

[@minea9769]

This aged well

[@princeesse9831]

Rami Malek is so beautiful

[@970nico]

Could listen to Rami for hours!!!That's exactly how I felt after watching Bohemian Rhapsody:hooked up and can't get over it! Humble and beautiful soul!

[@ahmedel-masry2740]

look how fuckin cute and friendly he is, good heart person and clean minded :)

[@voicenoteswithbrookewilliams]

i’m in awe of this human

[@bloom263519]

This interview is SPECTACULAR! I got so much more from this than the other interviews with Rami on YT. Thank you for uploading this :)

[@stvltiloqvent]

The bit where it's revealed Zach was supposed to get the part in Papillon 😂😂 and Rami's mortified about it 😂😂

[@NeaEmrys]

Yeah poor Rami was like 'oh shit' 😂

[@theresapotter]

Zachary is an EXCELLENT INTERVIEWER

[@projectorheaven]

We all have a bit of Mr Robot in each and everyone of us ;)

[@carpediemus]

Can`t get enough of these guys riffin on the craft. Mr. Robot just transcended our parameters of what was possible while treading the tv boards. A mouthwatering televisual feast.

[@selena___]

Great to have Zachary interviewing. He's inspiring

[@SAnderson54]

good God this man is beautiful! love love this interview

[@mailleuyehara63]

I had no idea this video existed!! I love both of them so much!!!

[@FashionChaletNET]

Great interview! I laughed when the cap on Rami’s water popped off! 😂

[@shorpilakarshimanto224]

When ? Minute ?

[@elnara1]

@@shorpilakarshimanto224 33:48 damn his smile 😊

[@3letterox]

A very eloquent & adequate conversation

[@MJ-ge6jz]

A really great exchange of ideas and topics. Very entertaining.

[@ANightworkerslife]

the Zach-monologue.

[@lehcaraz1]

Rami before he even knew he would be both an Emmy and Oscar winner for Best Actor! I would love to see him do a Broadway play and win a Tony and then do something vocally and win a grammy. Then he would have the EGOT. He has already won the two hardest in my opinion. Little trivia, I did some homework and found that Rami is the only actor in history to win both the Best Actor Emmy and Best Actor Oscar. Other winners of those two have had a mix of Best Actor and either supporting or something for directing or producing. He stands alone in this regard and is still so young.

[@robertawilhelm7998]

Rami, you're acting gift commands every and any scene you are in!! You are welcome in Canada anytime!!!!!!

[@sarahmusa4775]

when rami said he used to ditch his computer class I died...our first thing in common Lmaooo "when will i ever need this?"

[@michaelelliott1212]

I'm not a fan of the band Queen (still not after watching the biopic), but Rami's performance made me a fan of Rami Malek.

[@alias634]

Such a great, interesting conversation. Thanks for uploading it!

[@lucachristmann5730]

They're both too lovely for this world

[@truegoal9853]

The “Elliot in making”- thing was hilarious😝🤣

[@dimitrijoestar158]

how come in rami's interviews no one ever asks rami on his time on set of the war at home

[@merrylstreak7118]

Brilliant interview! The mutual respect is awesome. Thank you.

[@O7ghostX]

Rami Malek keeps on doing soothing behaviours, he must have been really stressed to be on stage. This kind of video is a blessing compared to the shitty Late Night Show. Thank you! Quite informative.

[@veronicareilly7112]

WOW! Zachary Quinto is amazing and I loved this interview. Both Zach & Rami were awesome and great actors as well as complimentary to each other in a humble way; which is classy.

[@tonyweaver2353]

How come no one asks him about The Pacific? He portrayed a Louisiana Marine very well in that series, I think that landed him Mr Robot, because he could shift to more serious roles rather than some cartoon character.

[@kaylavix]

Troy Baker That's actually the role Emmy Rossum (Sam Esmail's fiance) referred to when she suggested to have him come in for the role as Elliot.

[@yassiec5294]

Yesss there’s another interview by these guys and they go into detail about this character

[@lunaluna5815]

28:32 = EPIC. LMAO LOVE YOU RAMI!

[@robertawilhelm7998]

I have not seen Mr. Robot. Gotta see it!

[@woolsheep5359]

When I first decided to watch this series I never imagined how difficult it is to keep watching. It's torture after torture after torture on the main character. Didn't expect it.

[@silverpower5352]

Love him so much!!!!!

[@cynthiaanthony5025]

Zachary Quinto interviewing Rami Malek? Or Zachary Quinto interviewing Zachary Quinto?

[@grahampearson947]

Rami, if you happen to read the comments section... I would implore you (and im 110% sure people would listen to you over others) to give a motivational speech of sorts. You have a way of connecting with your crowd and everyone loves you. I'd love to see it.

[@thechocopie101]

I love this interview! 💕

[@Redsauce101]

8:58

[@jannagriffith5101]

I feel like he must have already started filming/reading for Bohemian Rhapsody...he's got a Freddie feel 😍 Between the 2015 Mr Robot panel compared to this one his style is much sharper

[@lehcaraz1]

I think that story about Papillon is actually about Charlie Hunnam, not Rami. I saw another interview with Charlie Hunnam where he said he was signed to the role and he changed his mind and backed out and then decided to go back into the movie as long as Rami was going to play the Hoffman role of Dega. The Hoffman role that Rami took on is the smaller more oddly featured of the characters where the Papillon role was Steve McQueen originally and has to be played by a larger man since he is the bodyguard of Dega. No one would accept the reverse with the smaller Rami playing the bodyguard. I think Charlie Hunnam was the actor that left and then returned to the movie.

[@aidanr3720]

my brother is an actorr everybody

[@shinjukucalling763]

Rami is very interesting, Zach is not.

[@erinsmith7461]

Are you guys the cloud.

[@alecjones4135]

video starts at 8:58. nice editing.... smh

[@SAGAFTRAFoundation]

The extra title card at the start of the video is because this event was streamed live. It is being trimmed now. Thanks!
