FULL Actors Roundtable: Justin Theroux, Rajat Suresh, Jeremy Levick & More

[@spacejesusadventure]

justin theroux's very lowkey humble listening faces may be the funniest thing about this

[@MrAdrienmartinez]

The leather jacket awkwardly crackling during silent moments is perfect.

[@elliotjg]

making this an hour long is insane commitment to the bit

[@Larry_Sportello]

They did the same with a fake Rogan pod featuring Tim Heidecker…great stuff

[@IncredibleIceCastle]

@@Larry_Sportello that was like a day long loop of a 3 hour bit wasn’t it 😂

[@lucasorion]

@@Larry_Sportello That video was absolutely my favorite funny video of this decade so far

[@wakegary]

Have you seen their 10 hour podcast with Tim Heidecker? It gets pretty deep. And not just nootropics and crypto, they get into how the world is changing and just how long it's been changing. Around hour 6 they make a breakthrough that's surprisingly not acknowledged as much as it should be. Online or offline.

[@wakegary]

@@Larry_Sportello I live in a fake Rogan pod but you'd never know it. Looks just like his real one.

[@anguspangus]

you can tell how good they are at acting based off the table size

[@NYCybertruck]

Who made it???

[@SchrodingersGat]

It's a really big table

[@Dayfree.]

I thought i was on drugs for a second hahahah

[@raineisme]

I was like "wait where is the interview coordinator" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jordach545]

You just go back 20, 30 years. It's crazy

[@BudBonkerson]

It's incredible how Jeremy was able to hone his accent simply by looking at pictures of the place online. What an incredible craftsman

[@wakegary]

It's easy to love him but it's impossible to understand just how he makes the magic happen. I'll tell you what, I'm cool not knowing how Levick makes the sausage. I'd rather sit back and enjoy this accents

[@alisonfisher7943]

inspiring. Truly.

[@wakegary]

Not just an incredible craftsman, but just a provocative actor.

[@IshbelMcL]

Men who aren’t afraid to be open and honest about their craft. I’m stunned by their candour. We are lucky to be alive at the same time as these giants.

[@tomhorrid]

Awards season seriously snubbed Theroux for MLK's Dresser

[@wakegary]

Well said. You gave me goosebumps

[@johnmonday4615]

I call masculinity the “mask I live in”. It’s so freeing to see these “men” (why use labels anymore) be so uninhibited about their emotions. It makes me want to be a better “person”z

[@wakegary]

@@johnmonday4615 I'm surprised that you don't have a mane. You're as brave as a lion and this comment almost reminds me of the end of Apocalypse Now. I watch that movie and it's just such an example of what what a movie could be. Not to mention an epic film, story and visual tale for the silver screen. Well said, and I know you know what I mean.

[@johnmonday4615]

@@wakegary I prefer the godfather as an Italian American

[@seanbleh8038]

This is “Documentary Now!” level of perfect parody. Everything is so intentional and so committed to the format. How these guys wrote and executed these scenes is next level, innovative stuff. I’m stoked to see bigger projects from Raj & Jeremy

[@Taltinus]

I mean they're right. Most of these actor this or that is hair brained bullshit. Everyone is scared of offending their potential hire. How much people just sit there and stare blankly at people saying nothing for no one in places that dont exist, its too much of a mind fuck for me.

[@johnmonday4615]

This is such a boring comment. To think that these craftsman would ever deign to write about what comes so naturally to them. I think therefore I am. These creatives act therefore they are. Change how you think Sean.

[@wakegary]

They came on my radar (no not like that) when I saw these two on Tim's Thanksgiving Loopin' Lampoon of Rogan. I love them both, and they have a telepathic way of playing together with improv.

[@unluckym8132]

MLK's Dresser was such an astonishingly beautiful film. Imagining a white person helping MLK behind the scenes like that brings a smile to my face every time. I salute you sir.

[@jordach545]

Exactly, like move over Bernie Sanders, this guy played the role of a lifetime.

Rajat’s performance in Severance was phenomenal. Glad to see him getting the recognition he deserves 👏

[@wakegary]

Yea, if it wasn't for his presence in that world, the reading would have never taken place. Imagine if it hadn't. It might be a different show, maybe even a movie!

[@Mediumreginald]

People forget the woman behind the costuming…

[@wakegary]

A lot of people don't know this, but Rajat actually grew up watching westerns as a kid and that led to his love of modern western films as an adult, and even in his teen and college years. Small world!

[@andrewholmes3116]

Wow!

[@wakegary]

@@andrewholmes3116 It blows my mind how small the world is while being literally the biggest world we know so far. And there are probably 10, 15 worlds that are just as big or even bigger. Maybe even 20 or 25. I mean it goes on if you're putting in the work and counting with an open mind.

[@jonnil1997]

The fact that they created a fake but real sounding youtube channel name is so funny

[@AliceYobby]

The sequence of the “Intimacy Coordinator” question being ripped up by a producer, to the question about “political art”, to “Who’s Toni Morrison again?”, to everyone waxing hollow about diversity - was genuinely masterful. I’m honestly blown away lmao truly no joke

[@jmi_music]

The story of how Jeremy Levick got to voice Todd was insane.

[@wakegary]

Not just the story but also the vibe he brings with him. It was amazing how the rest of the taaaable treated him like just another guy. I'd be so nervous. I guess 'meaningful' would be the closest word to describe Jeremy's entire, like.. aura.

[@101RadioheadCovers]

That story could be its own movie or series.

[@motovayne1]

I loved how they shot “Martin Luther King’s Dresser” in MLK’s point of view. To not cast or have him in the actual film was so brave and ground breaking.

[@shahooty]

Anyone who just watched the first minute and said "I get it, funny" and then didn't finish the full 53 minutes of this, missed out on so much pure brilliance. I laughed harder at this than I have at anything in a long time. I already loved Justin Theroux...but now I realize he is a legend. So much goodness.

[@johnrivers3813]

You can tell these actors are not just actors but true geniuses. They dug deeper than any THR round table I've ever saw. I mean years of actors, thousands of people have done this and not once did any of them take a step back and pondered to themselves.... how big that table actually is.

[@skyyeller]

I remember reading about Justin Theroux's grandmother's death/puppy strangling. The way he channeled that for Zoolander 2 was astounding... absolutely robbed at the Oscars.

[@wakegary]

it wasn't a puppy, it was full grown dog. he still moved the needle though. therouxly dedicated to the craft of Acting

I know they may never see this comment, but I just wanted to say how incredible it is that such an accomplished group of artists can still find the time to acknowledging the phenomenal craftsman (edit: or craftswoman) who made the table. I actually went to high school with the table crafter and knew them and their family personally, and they sadly were killed recently in a shocking accident (it is still too sensitive to discuss details, but let's just say being killed by drowning in a bathtub of your own urine is a horrific way to go). Their memory is absolutely honored by these legends in this video, and I'll be sharing this with their family to show at the funeral. Thank you to everyone involved in the production - I hope this table will inspire more great works of art in the future, and help raise awareness for the dangers of peeing in the shower when the drain is clogged.
