Jacob just seems like such a fun person to hang out with and I absolutely love all his answer. Him wanting Louis to go to therapy and eventually being a therapist for vampires was a cool answer.

[@solargeknowles4354]

Excellent interview. Jacob Anderson is perfection. Like I have butterflies.

[@lovebunny2345]

Jacob answered the questions so beautifully. I'm really glad that it wasn't color blind casting as well, and that the writers were conscious of the og Louis' backstory and reimagined it in a really important way.

Jacob is simply a lovely person. Thank you

Jacob relays his thoughts with such intricacy and deep consideration. I sense that no experience he has ever had has been wasted on him.

I cant wait for season 2 I have watched all the episodes 2 so far

[@imwalkingonsunshine6850]

I really enjoyed this. I never considered Louis training as a therapist, after recieving therapy himself but it makes perfect sense; and I loved when he talked about Louis code switching in his interactions with the people in his life. I don't think he ever stopped, or had time to delve into who he was. Whether human or vampire, he's still trying to morph himself into whatever role he's expected to play and I'd love to see him get away from that and find out who he is outside of his relationship with both his human and vampire family. I'd also like for him to re-connect with his community because I think that plays a part in how he sees himself in relation to the world around him. All in all, great interview. The interviewer was wonderful and Jacob's thoughts on Loius were insightful and refreshing.

Jacob is such a beautiful soul and aspect of him translates in the beloved characters that he plays! Wish him much more success!!🥰

[@DejaVu-901]

Jacob! 🤩

I was having a hard time with Jacob being a huge fan of the books. And that the back story being changed. But Episode 1 squashed the back story issue. But the rest of the season Jacob crushed the Character. You can literally feel him as Louis from the books so strong that it wouldn't mater how you change the story. He is Louis! What a phenomenal actor. Awards should be hands down a given.

How could you possibly have a hard time with it????? I'm a huge, multi-decade fan of the entire series and it didn't ever occur to me to have a problem with it. I was on board immediately.

he's absolutely lovely

Great interview. Love this show.

[@melaniesmith2917]

Jacob is the cutest! And so thoughtful and intelligent. I hope this leads to awards and more great roles in the furure. The pilot episode was one of the best pilots ever. And what is it with these whiny book purists? "That wasnt in the books, this wasnt in the books." Like, shut up and go read the books! Go watch the movie again. If you cant see that this was one of the best tv shows this year, then youre ridiculous.

Thank you for reminding me how much I love Massive Attack

He is adorable…. C’mon 😊

[@loustat4037]

I agree with Jacob that Louis needs to have therapy. He explains it so well
