I honestly clicked on this because of Diego Luna. I adore seeing him and addressing issues of Mexico. As a Latina, it’s awesome seeing him on round table.

[@looney1023]

He's beautiful inside and out and speaks so eloquently :)

Yesssss, I clicked bcuz of him too💕💕💕

[@jerusalem4492]

Yes! I love him and appreciate his words

[@luciamota1249]

I just love to watch him speaking english cause I recently realized that his accent sounds exactly like mine (I'm also mexican) and that encouraged me to stop being shy talking to native english speakers. Love Diego Luna.

[@markmcmullan3351]

What he said was quite profound gives you a whole new perspective on the drug wars.

[@A-smokaTano]

I'm Sorry but Lacey Rose was born for this kind of thing! She navigates this interview perfectly! Takes charge when she needs to, sits back when she needs to and gets answers out of several of these men who at times have no desire to answer the question! She is amazing!

[@believeinmatter]

D Soltero your kidding right? The host breaks the entire flow of these interviews, it should just be them asking each other questions from cards. Would be so much better

[@A-smokaTano]

@@believeinmatter So clearly you didn't watch the interview. There was no flow. This was --almost-- the worst combination of guests at a round table At several points including the very beginning there was just several seconds of silence. She had to actually make them speak. Left to their own devices Billy Porter would have talked the whole time and everyone else's would have nodded and pretended to laugh.

[@Esi153]

I absolutely love Hugh Grant and his dry self deprecating wit. I also think he's a better actor than he thinks. I love that he doesn't take himself seriously.

[@A-smokaTano]

I think the "incident" with Divine Brown humbled him A LOT!

[@craigjones21]

Yes I think he carries a lot of shame because of the incident but the real shame is that western culture can be so puritanical and judgemental about sexual gratification. If it's between two consenting adults, whether or not funds are exchanged, there should be zero shame in it.

[@isoney]

Lol, and his expression when Billy Porter said about the gay parts going to straight guys.

[@mwahhha226]

CJGreen he was cheating on his girlfriend when he did it which is shameful

[@craigjones21]

@@mwahhha226 Ok fair enough, that is shameful. But if we refused to enjoy the art of artists and performers who made shameful mistakes on principle I think that would wipe out a ton of great books, movies and art. Of course it's legitimate to feel upset about what he did and refuse to watch his performances on that basis but personally I don't judge people that way because who knows what they were going through. Imagine being a high profile actor with no anonymity to speak of, your private life on showcase 24/7, in a relationship in which you don't feel sexually fulfilled, and your life feels boring and bland. You're desperately trying to maintain appearances of perfect relationship/perfect life for the public meanwhile you're deeply dissatisfied with your life and looking for passionate, skilled sexual intimacy but can't have it at home. Can you tell I can relate to this? I personally wouldn't visit a prostitute due to risk of STDs but I am capable of great passion and sexual skill, but it goes unfulfilled because my wife is not that good in bed. Sucks.

i'm still pissed Richard madden didn't get the nomination for Bodyguard. He portrayed the anxiety, paranoia and hostility of a PTSD sufferer while also being a stoic bodyguard and it was enthralling to watch. I spent most of the show not know if he was good or bad because Richard expertly played with the audience's perceptions. A real shame he was snubbed.

[@cruzl1182]

I think he was extremely passionate about getting his points across and was one of the few people on the table that really had something to say ya know. When they're all talking about being Romeo, Billy Porter never really says much because he knows the difficulty in getting these leading parts as a gay black man in Hollywood. What they so casually ignore is that while they can land those parts so easily he would have to work 10x as hard to prove that he is worthy of it as much as they are. Which isnt really their fault more on the fault of Hollywood executives

[@deezxc]

Zxra6 Xx I don’t think it was necessarily a dig against the actors but the industry for heaping praise on actors for taking on LGBT+ roles by default with words like “brave”. That’s very patronizing and damaging to the community being represented.

[@zxra6xx821]

damo agun it is brave simply due to how brave the community of lgtbq+ they are representing and for taking the risk of facing backlash due to their heterosexuality.Don’t get me wrong I do think more lgtbq+ actors should be cast however the comment by Billy was not necessary and could be interpreted as somewhat degrading.Some of the actors playing gay roles may also not be straight themselves yet may not be open about their sexuality which is also a factor that should be considered.

1988BOLAND I noticed this too. Different energies and sensibilities. I get the sense Hugh isn’t big on declarative statements and prefers self deprecating, wry humor. If Billy was this way though it wouldn’t make him who he is and he wouldn’t be where he is. His enthusiasm and passion is apparent. Some people make a statement and others are subtler.

@@brendantaylor3570 Well it doesn't help that Porter goes on about straight people playing gay roles and Grant has played two very definitive gay roles. Firstly, in the Merchant-Ivory movie Maurice (an adaptation of EM Forster's novel) which he was brilliant in and won the Venice Film Festival Best Actor that he shared with James Wilby (seriously, I recommend watching it because not only is it very ahead of its time both movie and the novel it was based on but brilliantly acted by Grant and Wilby) and Jeremy Thorpe who was a politician who put out a hit on his ex-gay lover (also brilliant in that).

He may play the bumbling Englishman character well but in real life, Hugh is eloquent and incredibly intelligent (was a scholar at Oxford and graduated with honors). A hero in real life too as he was one of the people who exposed the extent of the UK phone-hacking scandal.

.... and then Richard madden was robb-ed. Bodyguard nominated (he's 90% of the show) but not him as lead... and why drama actress had 7 slots and actor only 6 ?

[@davidmernick7360]

Emmys have a rule where if the sixth and seventh placed nominees are within a negligible percentage of each other to basically be the same, then they both get nominations. If Richard was 7th place, for example, the gap between whoever scored 6th (let's be real, it was probably Kit or Milo) and him was distant enough to not warrant a seventh nominee. Emmy rules are weird that way.

What Stephan James said is very true : Hollywood rarely depicts accurately contemporaneity. Very good at spin-off and period series, movies etc but Hollywood got trouble reflecting and seizing the moment, in fiction not in excellent documentaries...

[@MarvelRules123]

This series is so badly promoted... its been up over three days and hasn't even reached 90,000 views

[@eatme3212]

Stephan James’s personality makes me want to watch his work

[@Akaya7777]

Easily the most reserved round table I have seen. Maybe its because Ive been watching the comedy ones lately but you almost forget there are other people at the table when they do close ups.

[@amishas.2416]

Dev Patel needs to be at this table. Then we have a truly inclusive drama actors roundtable.

[@amishas.2416]

Hugh Grant is still incredibly charismatic and funny.

[@champflowahbomb7630]

Yessss

[@athena608]

Dev Patel did one of these roundtables five years ago. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6q0eH6Jr76keMk

I think Richard's portrayal of John Reid in Rocketman was excellent, and it's a hard character to play, he's almost universally despised (he abused Elton John, who is a very beloved figure). I'm not sure if he's straight or not, but I think he did a great job of playing up the villain part more than the gay part. Like, he played Reid as a man who happened to be gay, but who was first and foremost an absolute prick, which seemed very poignant.

I am so grateful for Billy's presence in Hollywood right now ❤️

After watching the first episode of Pose I had to google him and find out who the heck is this marvelous man...in my head he and I are friends.

[@themagiccaster3455]

I find him a bit annoying.

[@camron147]

The Tragic Master Too bad.

[@cosmic-lullabies]

This makes me love Richard even more

[@marguzmel]

Come on Diego you made it in Hollywood when you appeared in Star Wars... From Huicho Domínguez to Rogue One....

[@Tan87ful]

[@girlmom2129]

Hey Diego Luna! I will always love Dirty Dancing Havana Nights!

[@stinom5958]

Thoroughly enjoyed this conversation. Great hosting and the men all added something interesting to the mix. Thank you THR!

[@Selahsmum]

I LOVE hughs honesty- so funny and refreshing

[@rosariomitacc178]

Hugh Grant and Diego Luna, that's interesting

[@josiefischer9359]

this might've been the calmest round table talk I've ever seen. i love it.

[@THENAFERATU]

Listening to their aspirations as characters they'd like to play, I swear they could all be together in one great movie...
