Dune 2's Rebecca Ferguson reveals former 'idiot of a co-star' 'screamed' at her & left her 'crying'

[@reignwithjoshsmith]

Rebecca Ferguson is MOTHER. If you want more from Rebecca, listen to the full chat on my podcast Reign here: hyperurl.co/i4yxt0 Hope you enjoy and if you listen let me know what you think! Josh x

[@DebateKing69]

I noticed you don't ask her about HER actions and what she was doing wrong ? There is another side of the story which I notice you don't go into with this soft ball interview ! She clearly learned from the XP and got smartened up. But you cant hold ANY women to responsibility or accountability and that is the issue !

[@sscoutistaken]

Your editor skipped like 1 minute and forgot to update the CC subs.

[@jacklovell7899]

Cough hugh grant cough

[@Rokosbasil]

She is talking about Tim cruise

[@olivierlechapeau3089]

Honestly, it's the best Rebecca Ferguson interview I've seen and clearly the most interesting of the whole press tour. The fact that the interview lasts 20 minutes means you can really delve into the answers, and the questions were well thought out and intelligent. And you and Rebecca have a real chemistry that works really well, so it was a pleasure to watch ! I learned a lot more about her, her career and her approach to Jessica than in the other Dune interviews, so hats off to you !

[@leftwingmofos]

agree wholeheartedly.

[@reignwithjoshsmith]

Thank you so much for the love - really really really appreciate this! x

[@andrewtodd9103]

I'm going to side with the male actor, since he is the lead and this will lead the Dune franchise into some woke garbage if they side with her and make the story about her, which garbage Hollywood will do. And of course The Rock's is going to side with her because he is a diva too.

[@matiasdevaglia4541]

​@@andrewtodd9103dude, are you OK? Will you respond to every comment supporting her? The incident Rebecca is talking about has nothing to do with Dune. I don't know why you think it woul shift the focus of the story to her, but for your information Dune was already "woke" 60 years ago. Books 5 and 6 would be called a wokefest by someone like you.

[@couchpotatoe91]

​@@matiasdevaglia4541 He's the kind of guy that complains how punk bands have become woke and how much better their stuff was back when he didn't understand their message. And yes, the later books are insanely ahead of their time, truly in the 60s spirit of rethinking and critically questioning current societal norms. Such a blast to read!

[@sigma682]

I applaud Rebecca Ferguson to use her voice and have the guts to speak about it in an interview.

[@zoellazayce6796]

She used "The Voice"

[@zacariasfangueiro4073]

Ok..... She uses her voice.....!? But does she actually say who the person/idiot is....?!

[@Liam_Mellon]

@@zacariasfangueiro4073 It was Jacob Tremblay on the set of Doctor Sleep

[@alx8669]

This might be the best interview I've ever seen. Two people listening and responding - I always knew Rebecca Ferguson was a super interesting person, but love how much she engages and opens up here - kudos to Josh, this is some skill set as an interviewer.

[@Venturesome_Dreamer]

15:04 “Mothers working it.” Lmao. God, I love her!

[@pomgrannycoco8766]

Amazing interview of Rebecca Ferguson. Humble, professional but also pragmatic. Smart person with a good heart.

[@NickBorodai]

Rebecca Ferguson is my favorite actress on today. She became my favorite actress when I first saw in Mission Impossible . I'm amazed how she damn cool in role of Ilsa.

[@andrewtodd9103]

She was average in that movie and only had a role because Hollywood is woke. Tom Cruise is a much better actor and it was very evident in that movie lol you are trippin🤣🤣

[@valeriemiller585]

An excellent interview. She appears very comfortable with you. Reign, you are an outstanding interviewer!

[@reignwithjoshsmith]

Thank you so much - that is so so so kind of you! x

[@texgowing7359]

In my eyes Rebecca Ferguson can do no wrong. She's stunningly beautiful, sharp as a razor & awesome as an actor. She is also an absolutely awesome human being. I just love this lady.

[@KtheHermit]

I could listen to her for ages taking about literally anything... I think it's the charisma & unpredictability of hers

[@MerchantIvoryfilms]

It was Hugh Grant, He is not only known for being super rude to co-stars, he actually admits it in interviews, even so far as to once made Drew Barrymore cry after yelling at her because she gave him acting notes. Honestly this guy is a first rate child, behaves like one, and confirmed from her story that productions defend that kind of behavior. Just sad. Its a shame to because i enjoy his films hes in.

[@xRonSKiiSpeeD]

Out of all the potential names that were listed, it being him makes the most sense for me. Just from simply watching him in group press tours over the years and how absolutely miserable he looked in them. He's a right c*** for sure. 😂

[@explicitDTP]

Makes sense and she said back in the day.

[@retropyro]

I don't know if Hugh Grant was #1 on that set, think Streep w would be. Another actor that fits would be the Rock.

[@IslandBoyFantasy]

​@@retropyroThank YOU!! 🤗He would NOT have been No. 1 on Call Sheet in Florence Foster Jenkins. Meryl would have been No. 1. So, even though Hugh is known to be a bit of jerk. Wrong person, wrong movie. You gotta know your industry, when you are commenting...FOLKS!

[@josephbierline2039]

I'm actually convinced it was Jake Gyllenhaal. Although I've heard Meryl Streep is kind of a jerk to her fans (but hey, if I'm in public going about my business, I'd get annoyed if everyone talked to me too)

[@TheBicycultist]

She's quite a candid interviewee. She obviously puts a lot of thought into her character's onscreen dynamics with Paul's, and I only wish we could hear Timothy explaining his perspective on the matter.

[@BenShutUp]

Dude this was so good! I learned so much about humanity and acting careers and how to interview someone with solid questions and great chemistry! Rebecca, this was so “mother”, I feel warm and inspired! Thank y’all!

[@_kmCarter]

Ferguson’s performance in these films is stunning. Somehow she managed to play the same character becoming two different people with radically different priorities in an instant… and she did it plausibly. She’s incredibly talented.

[@mgntstr]

Would she push her self to this point without that rebuke from her co-star 'ass'?

[@4Everlast]

Great acting comes from intelligence, except J.Lawrence, that bitch is on another level, total simpleton but she can do ANY-THING.

[@johii19]

this is one of my favorite interviews of Rebecca. So insightful and it's so clear she felt very comfortable. Thank you! It's wonderful!

[@ephi124]

I appreciate how sympathetic the interviewer is when Rebecca shares her story about working with an idiot co-star

[@andrewtodd9103]

Yeah because believe all women🤣🤣

[@GenesisShadowsong]

hard to see anything through the over-the-top sweaty mannerisms

[@aspacelex]

​@@andrewtodd9103Literal npc, zero thoughts, just preprogrammed lines vaguely related to external stimuli.

[@davidthompson9141]

The idiot co star was james cordon

[@NormaLilia24]

Does anyone know what co-star that was?

[@theneonflash2832]

This was an AMAZING interview!!! To the interviewer: the way you held the conversation and let Rebecca shine was BRILLIANT! Not to mention how funny you two are together!! BRAVO!

[@americanparser]

Rebecca Ferguson is at once relatively unknown, effervescent, classy, and marvelously talented, She's the Swedish equivalent to Australia's Cate Blanchett. The only reason she's not more visible is because A) she so thoroughly disappears into her roles, and B) she doesn't want to be.

[@EmpireStateUtopian_Dystopia]

Love this comment. Agreed with everything.

[@vehzee]

Her unfiltered essence during this press tour has made me a huge fan❤

[@therefore_I_yam]

The craziest part is that she appears to be able to maintain this energy and enthusiasm in almost every interview and to me that's just superhuman. If I did one day of nailing it in interviews like this I would probably be an exhausted shell of myself and they do this shit for days at a time if not weeks.

[@andyg4929]

Rebecca Ferguson has always been that girl. You could put her in a movie cast full of heavy hitters and she would stand out. Amazing performance by her in this film.

[@anz10]

she says so much just with her intense gaze in Dune 2, she is superb

[@takeaguess08]

I need more Rebecca Ferguson, I enjoy the way she approaches acting so much.

[@victorcraraujo]

I'm honestly in absolutely awe about this woman. Didn't know much about her (just watched Dune) and I was so mesmerized with her performance that I started to watch her interviews. I'm very very inspired by her way of thinking, talking and walking in this world. Truly hoping she's going to get that Oscar nomination because it was visceral!

[@victorcraraujo]

By the way, the interviewer is AMAZING. Great questions!

[@hjkayel9610]

I love love love this interview. The interviewer is *chef's kiss* & Rebecca is THE MOTHER hands down

[@pinkladee2012]

This interview shows how you really shouldn't judge people by brief camera appearances. She came off to me as really entitled and standoffish before watching this. I actually speculated that she may have been resentful of the attention the younger cast members were getting. I was completely wrong. She seems delightful and confident. I quite admire her candor and I'm reminded to not be so quick to judge people. Great interview!

[@charstar386]

What made you think this? I’ve always admired her. You can tell her integrity by her acting choices. She goes deep.

[@jaehyun4ever]

this interview is so good! all the good questions and understanding. You listen quietly and supportively to her. this may be the thing that makes Rebecca feel free to say things, so we got the tea as well. 10/10

[@doubleohdutch2108]

Great interview. Entertaining, great chemistry, pace, mood. We need more of those. Rebecca is...just great. Josh, keep them coming. Cheers.

[@jkmm4813]

Thank you so much for this interview. Lady Jessica is one of the most magnetic performances for me.

[@NF_Redux]

incredible woman, and she's about to blow people away with her performance in Dune Part II.

[@lord-licht]

LOVE your interviews, the chemistry is always so comfortable and nice and the conversation flows, really enjoy listening to you and this was no exception. Also cackling at her knowing about the mothering. Feels correct.

[@cortexiopeia]

Gosh, I love this woman so much. She’s straightforward, honest, authentic and casually entertaining. I definitely admired her before Dune, but her press tour with Part 2 made me love her so much. And my full respect for the interviewer - this one felt like a wonderful conversation between two people that could’ve lasted forever (unfortunately it didn’t but well, everything has an end I guess 😅). Thank you so much for that, Josh!

[@iosebdzamukashvili5360]

Super humble and special person

[@AlexStoner-s7v]

14:42 "Hercules which we don't need to talk about because we don't need to promote directors like that" 👀👀

[@semafodje782]

She was referring to Brett Ratner, who was one of the people exposed during the Me Too/Times Up era. He's a dick, sexual harasser and outed elliot page to the X-men 3 cast and crew.

[@fredvasquez4201]

He also disappeared. He used to be a big director years ago. strange.

[@McLarenMercedes]

@@fredvasquez4201 Brett Ratner was never a big director and most the films he directed were largely forgotten after their novelty value had worn out.

Disappeared after allegations of sexual misconduct.

[@TheEbo34]

I watch of all her interviews. She’s so authentic and a genuinely great actress

[@Stevewebstermusic]

When she was cast in dune part 1 I freaked out. I absolutely loved her in mission impossible rogue nation and it immediately clicked that this film would show the badass lady Jessica I saw in my mind while reading the book. So excited for part 2!

[@sknkwrksowner]

Unpopular opinion I feel (because "triggered men", etc), but I wish more actresses would call out inappropriate behavior upfront like this! It's a huge step to stopping it from escalating into the narcissistic, and sometimes sexual, predator behavior that everyone acts 'shocked and surprised' when it finally goes public in a more serious assault scandal. 💯

[@leandrofalcao3018]

What a Interview. They're both were so confortable with each other, it felt more like a friends chat, congratulation, Awsome!

[@reignwithjoshsmith]

OOHHH wow! what a feeling she must have felt when finally setting off on that asshat on set. I can feel my heartrate peaking right now. wow. I’m so glad she stood up for herself.. .it’s messed up that the director took so long to come around. Protect REBECCA FERGUSON AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE IS A TREASURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@pureounce.9184]

There is no way she did this as part of the normal press junket unless this was the very first interview, too real, too present, too engaged. But if it was, then damn she good good.

[@Talia778]

I just found out she’s only 12 years Timothee’s senior. when I watched the first movie is was so confused when my sister told me she was his mom 💀

[@Hoganply]

That's a charismatic lady right there.

[@ChristopherB123]

What an amazing human being!

[@zenithquasar9623]

Wow! She is so much fun, but she is super candid! Love it! Became a fan!

[@djoverkin]

Damn, i think I'll go and see it again....so frustrating I can't stream it yet.

[@hadassa5797]

People are missing the point of the story she just told. This story is not about who did it but about standing up for yourself. To find your own voice even if you are in a vulnerable position. I find her story very inspiring. Rebecca sounds so genuine and human. I've been following her career since the white queen and Mission impossible rogue nation and men she doesn't disappoint

[@MrGenexxx]

The point was to start a shitstorm and she succeeded. Now people attacking Hugh Grant for absolutely no reason.

[@juansolis4796]

Closed captions are WAY OFF. WTF?

[@thomasscottwilliams6672]

Wow, so much respect for her, the industry needs to support without the need to be asked.

[@ALSPEHEIR]

14:44 and there's the awnser dor what actor treated her badly: It was Dwayne Johnson. The Director of Hercules was Brett Ratner.

[@macegamma431]

this was a really fantastic interview!

After this, I respect her even more! Incredibly strong, smart, professional. I am sure that today no one will dare to shout at her. She's brilliant!!💖💯

[@scott2836]

It’s very interesting to watch really good interviews. Rebecca Ferguson is an excellent actress and very interesting human being. The interviewer allowed both of these things to be featured and acknowledged without an abundance of sappy uncritical praise. And likewise, Josh Smith does an excellent job of getting both basic performance information and personal detail from Rebecca professionally, non- confrontationally, and as a confidante as opposed to a potential threat. One of the very few people that I have seen be able to do this well. Kudos, Josh!

[@alex0589]

great interview, nice work, she's brilliant

[@JamesDurcan]

Im gonna call it Jake Gyllenhall ( On "LIFE" ) , Jake is a little boy who grew up pampered and coddled and told by everyone "hes the best!", - A few stories ( If you dig ) showcasing his immaturity . Everyone saying Hugh Grant, but Id bet its Jake Gyllenhall

[@dalestaley5637]

Why does the UK have the best interviewers?

[@zenithquasar9623]

I think these kinds of interviews do away with the "press points" they have to hit for the promotion of the film, and go more down to earth.

Americans aren't particularly intelligent, that's why. Most American interviews take place in LA, land of the Kardashians.

What an actress! I would love to see her in a True Detective season but in a good one with good actors!

[@leebrandt8597]

Well, I feel like a jerk after my last comment, especially after watching the whole interview. You did great. Apologies, keep doing what you're doing. Cheers

[@marcsles]

That women had a impossible task: Play a character, larger than life, with a 50% part in a 10h (audio-) book, and nailed it. I could not imagine someone actually doing a good job. But she was the best casting choice in the two Films.

It will be 100% Hugh Grant..Rebecca Ferguson is not in any promotional video for their movie together..she did an interview with Jake G. and Michael F. and their interactions are very positive.

was confirmed as Jake.

[@taliavelazquez358]

Hugh wasn't number one in the film they were in together.

[@WOTArtyNoobs]

@@taliavelazquez358 Yes - we found out in the end that it was Jake G. A well known gossip columnist admitted that it was Jake on the set of LIFE and that's why she could act to a tennis ball because the set was very small and they could suspend a tennis ball by a small piece of thread on somewhere in the set as Rebecca was in a harness.
