Dev Patel': "To be an Every-Man, a 20-Something-Year-Old Guy Meant a Lot" | Close Up WIth THR

[@ndo533]

he's a hand talker. Very emotive and expressive. He's alive.

[@Karin_Allen]

And his fingers are so long! This is a crazy comparison, but his fingers remind me of Matt Bellamy's, and that makes me wonder what kind of guitar player Dev could be if he wanted.

[@bongs1995]

Seeing an actor with so much potential finally get the role he deserves again is really magnificent.

[@binetacoulibaly638]

[@wannabgenzer]

I have such a huge crush on him wow

[@totorolove543]

alia al mutairi me too dude. Me too

[@hudaj2628]

Alia I feel you...the funny part is that I didnt have it back in his "slumdog" days....I loved his acting and all...but now its like OMG his hair OMG the accent...haha the struggle is real ;)

[@Whitneypyant]

alia al mutairi so do I

[@mr.cifuentes1779]

ingles lol is that him? he was great in skins

[@primaveraporsiempre]

I really understand you!

[@AngieeShipps]

He is so beyond his looks. His humanity is beautiful!

[@LifeUnfiltered-Raw]

Wow! You know that what I saw as well! But not conscious of it. You said it perfectly 🥰

[@itswarda123]

He's gorgeous and grounded . Lion looks so good .

[@rebeccanascimento8234]

He looks so attractive...and speaks so well

[@raghubirkishoredebbarma529]

Dev's gotten hot. Hasn't he?! oh, Lord his closeups!

[@BCS_KshitizRanjan]

Fooh

[@hannahduggan3599]

He was born hot.

[@saintko8019]

I've always known that since Slumdog

[@alondrarojas5478]

So damn hot!

[@MarisolMeetsWorld]

I'm so in awe of his growth from when I first saw him in skins to lion is truly incredible.

[@Tebigong101]

People will dismiss what Dev says here and just lump it in with the "actor's struggle" but he's talking about something specific to the actor of color's experience. Everything that you usually associate with being an actor plus being a brown, that no matter how good you are or attractive the kinds of roles for someone like you where you'll get this character that seems like a normal person and you get a chance to really act but also represent your community in a meaningful way... those are few and far between.

[@Angedoescoversongs]

Tebigong101 well said

[@mannya.h.967]

+Tebigong101 Is right. There's actually a great show that talks about that same struggle comedically called Master of None (amazing).

[@Tebigong101]

Manuel A Hurtado I've seen it, I really enjoyed it, and there needs to more shows that address similar unique experiences, not just because it's the right thing to do but it makes for equally interesting entertainment. More conversations need to happen because it's a complicated topic like how colorism works, why whitewashing is so wrong, and to address issues for Asian, Latinx, and Black talent and communities specifically when it comes to representation. Also, how important solidarity is so communities of color don't fall into the trap blaming or demeaning each other when it's white Hollywood execs and casting directors making problematic diversity choices.

[@sashabrown1796]

This.

[@chad522]

Dev Patel's voice can end worlds

[@heebs3778]

OMG DEV PATEL, ANDREW GARFIELD AND JOSEPH GORDON LEVITT IN ONE ROOM I NEED THE FULL EPISODE!!!!

[@varp.]

heebs this same account has the full clip.

[@salonibansal3990]

Can't stand Affleck. Also, Dev Patel is an absolute delight.

[@PRATIK1900]

He is one fucking good actor, if you were referring to acting skills.

[@loubutnotreed566]

Same.

[@asr7480]

why tho???

[@rawgosia]

Dev's acting was absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous movie.

[@samanetha89]

Jeff Bridges and Casey Affleck look totally uninterested in that he's saying whereas I'm hanging off of every word lol!... I could be wrong but that's just what it looks like...

[@sams517]

Casey’s trash so who cares about him

[@Joselefineline]

i am so in love with him and his acting, the way he portrays the characters feels so genuine and real. i really, really hope that he gets more big roles, especially in dramas because he's just absolutely brilliant there. hollywood and the international film community better not sleep on him, it's such a waste of pure talent (and total eye candy)

[@loviak4323]

JGL's smiling at dev while listening intently is so cute LOL

[@OutsideThatCubicle]

All the panelists were mesmerised by what he had to say. Expressive, articulate and man ....his diction is just mind blowing

[@rebeccanascimento8234]

Why are all these others giving such weird looks? Its a weird vibe as well...

[@ameya990]

@sivan ferna Mahershala Ali ?

[@GOURAV368]

😂😂😅 i am also feeling this

[@ztancomfort187]

They clearly were tryin listen and understand a thing most of them dont completely. Which i honestly admire since a person could easily say "i know that already" and not listen to a thing they should listen to

[@izz2539]

What a beautiful and talented human being

[@retver19]

It's time for the British Asians to get out there!!! Dev is an inspiration

[@lt3111]

he’s so inspirational to me, as a british asian dude who wants to get in the film industry. i really want to meet him one day

[@Kiki09012]

i love dev so much he's so pure but every single time the camera was on casey affleck i felt like destroying this video. why did they put such a disgusting man with the angel that is dev? he deserved better

[@asr7480]

what did casey do tho???

[@lucamolta]

replayed the first five seconds of this ten times before watching the interview.

[@pradnyakshirsagar1338]

I genuinely love Dev Patel, Josh Gordon lewitt and Andrew Garfield ❤ three of them are really grounded and talented..!! I feel like they have proved themselves as actors and yet they are somewhat underrated..!! They deserve all the praise and attention..💕💕

[@Katya_Lastochka]

I like how these are disected to pick which actor you want to hear, because it saves time.

[@infinteloveforfilm]

He has really been changed and grown up from the boy from Slumdog Millionaire. His performance in Lion was so magnificent. He's still got so much potential and even deserves more.

[@jignapatel2479]

Grounded and articulate! He is definitely going to make it huge! The first five seconds though!! 😍

[@supercrazybaka]

I was like 😍 the whole time. He's a patel, British, gorgeous, and NOT a doctor, sign this little Indian up!!!

[@rajanpatel9603]

Hahaha

[@abdullahtariq2032]

Not a doctor?? What's that supposed to mean?

[@eyesandstars6222]

He has a vibe, Aura and personality of Keanu reeves

[@nasiarena5208]

the first five seconds and the last five seconds and every other second in between... ugh.... such brilliance, intelligence, genius and gorgeousness in one man.... perfection!

[@farahhussain240]

Crazy how far he's come since Skins.

[@menyegara]

i swear hes the most beautiful man on earth

[@gardenofeden7]

can we talk about how serverely Merhashala's eyes and melanin pops

[@wbl5649]

Dev is a gorgeous man

[@hannahduggan3599]

That's just the way he was born.

[@sashabrown1796]

He's such a good actor, and so articulate and smart here.

[@EllisCarver]

The film that he did after Slumdog that wasn't well received was The Last Airbender. I didn't know the budget for that movie was so small.

[@JCivX]

He meant that Slumdog's budget was so small. Last Airbender had about a 155 million dollar budget which is just crazy...

[@shalommichael8263]

EllisCarver

[@teresajohnson8988]

He’s so open honest and out there;that’s so attractive

[@francescacouch8796]

Struggle is about living what we cannot possibly imagine is real. Being brave is walking that journey standing tall and Dev Patel did that in such a great sense of grace bringing a life force to the story

[@aditikule2482]

What a gorgeous voice he has❤️❤️

[@loviar7]

Talented, hard work, down to earth that all you need to win million of heart. God Bless you . We need more story like this 💖

[@teresc3181]

To begin with, I find the facial features of South-Asians really attractive, and then to top it off with an English accent… *ugh!* the torture! :D …I find Dev Patel to be a really good actor, and based from his interviews, he seems to be a very good person as well :)

[@eyesandstars6222]

More the looks..he has sense and substance and not just shallow, superficial and social media-crazed individual

[@sailortiger8772]

gosh I can listen to him talk forever and not get tired

[@MrAtaguas]

Lol they upload this right after I commented on the video with Casey Affleck talking about no clips of Dev and Marshala talking

[@JimNortonsAlcoholism]

You got played

[@SuperPSTutorials]

[@Yehamarin]

I love him in almost all of his film but my favourite is "The Road Within" He's so funny in that film.

[@MasterNeko14]

Yeha Marin I agree.

[@lalitharavindran]

I love the look that Jeff Bridges gives Dev!

[@yomiadejumo]

[@shantishanti1949]

Dev Patel an absolute star performer.... Slum Dog Millionaire... Infinity Brilliant... then this one LION absolutely 3 BRILLIANT movies...

[@VONiiE8]

His character on Newsroom, Neal, was one of my favorites on the show. I miss that show, and I miss Neal. There wasn't enough of him in the last season 😔

[@leroymane]

Puberty hits him hard

[@SuperLaserbean]

[@ipshitajee]

[@aa7988]

Dev is such a nice soul

[@HeathsHarleyQuinn]

Look at him now! He was crushing it then and now he's a triple threat! Writing, acting, and directing. Monkey Man is everything.

[@Romain1212]

[@ReEkInGoFaWeSoMeNeSs]

[@erosr1]

Wow! Dev has really blossomed! He used to be such a little dork. hahaha

[@hannahduggan3599]

He became hot on April 23rd, 1990.

[@SeanConway99]

[@MiltonSP]

[@catenystrom6506]

Patel ABSOLUTELY deserved the Oscar that year. The Oscars SUCK.

[@TheOriginalRevolt]

Anyone else looking to have Dev's children? WHY was he born in 1990. Why? How?

[@Katya_Lastochka]

TheOriginalRevolt So that we can meet and marry, jk, but he's really handsom and talented and sweet.

[@koranaashleigh5913]

I love how honest Dev is. H'es a great guy. Even though he's very skinny, very very skinny, he manages to be very, very sexy, good man.

[@mmg1232]

Eve Jepsen What is wrong with being skinny?I find skinny men to be very attractive.

[@koranaashleigh5913]

mmg 123 Not much, hubby is just a tall, muscular guy, big, in a good way, so I tend to compare all sexy men to him. Psychology. :)
