The look on Javier's face when Stephen says he was the perfect Stilgar and the look on Stephens face when he invites him to the Dune 2 set have made my morning. lol

[@MadAboutBrows]

What a beautiful moment between them 😍

Not just the look, Stephen's whole body language

[@bannedcommander2932]

When you see a joyful, friendly and witty person who is clearly a treat to interview and yet has won all awards that matter playing a psycho like Anton Chigurh, you know you're looking at a great actor. I can't wait to see more of this guy.

[@ChicoCabra]

I think it is a good chance to remember he learnt all the lines for Anton Chigurh ad verbatim. He didn't speak english at the time, and he is practically fluent only some years later.

[@MulrySquare]

Bardem is such a great actor, and a lovely person. Oh, and a hunk.

[@serendipityshopnyc]

Agreed on all counts! I first saw him in No Country for Old Men, in which he was of course truly scary, but still to my eyes so hunky that I was puzzled my friend did not notice. I think she was thrown by the dreadful haircut, and she did catch up later after she saw him in other films, but JFC how could you miss that body when he played the nude solo motel room scene?

[@AvStevieStevenJamesDrums]

Wow, I’ve never had to opportunity to see an interview with Javier, and what an engaging articulate pure genuine personality.

I would definitely recommend his “Off Camera” interview. He’s a really profound and humble guy.

[@laineyturner3785]

Fantastic interview! First time hearing Javier speak as himself. He is so humble and charming, funny and real. Also very kind to invite Stephen to hang out on the Dune set. I hope it works out !

There is something so incredibly pure about the joy Stephen expressed. I honestly dont think there is anyone on TV who is so honest with his emotions.

[@rehoby]

As cool and genuine and talented as a human can be.

[@speedisoftheessence]

K Go, although I agree that we shouldn't judge a book by its cover, those guys you mentioned never had nice guy reputations to begin with lol Spacey and Weinstein were reviled for being dickheads by people they worked with even before they were exposed as predators, Hammer wasn't as notorious but he wasn't known to be nice either.

[@grumylynn]

It’s hard to believe this lovely person played that terrifying character in No Country for Old Men. Wow! He is brilliant.

[@jeffhogue1245]

Bardem is as cool as cool ever got. When he was in my hometown Bartlesville, Oklahoma with Malick making To the Wonder he smoked weed with locals through an adapted apple pipe. He is the best.

[@edgarcayce2.02]

He plays a lot of dark characters, no? It was a joy to see his true personality shine through. He seems like a really wonderful guy.

[@jakeryan9469]

Even in some of his most depressing roles you can see his heart. Both "The Sea Inside" and " Biutiful" are incredible films that are sad & uplifting at the same time.

@K Go So...According to you we should all be assuming all the people are...Bad? Who shitted in your cereal buddy? Lighten up.

[@stevensoncl]

Check out his work in Spanish films, he goes back at least to the early nineties. "Jamón Jamón" and "Mondays in the Sun" for example. Then there's "The Sea Inside" from the early 2000s, a true story and his acting superb. He comes from an acting family from Galicia and is awesome.

[@anaperez5442]

The look of pure joy on Stephen's face. Priceless!

[@laalaa99stl]

Ohhhhhh maaaaaan. Just when I didn't think it was possible to be more envious of Stephen getting a cameo in a LOTR movie. I hope he gets one for the next chapter of Dune!

[@theprotractor0379]

They should make him the voice of a Spacing Guild navigator when they're negotiating with Paul

[@B3RyL]

@@theprotractor0379 That could work actually. For obvious reasons the Navigator would have to be CGI anyway so anyone can play them as long as the voice fits. And as we know, Stephen has a talent for voices, so I can totally see that happening.

[@speedisoftheessence]

He was in The Hobbit, not LOTR. You can just call it a Tolkien or a Middle-Earth movie.

[@dbehr27]

Holy crap. I was beaming this whole show! These 2 together! But Javier??? What a treat. I will now look for every movie he's ever made!

“No conocerás el miedo. El miedo mata la mente. El miedo es la pequeña muerte que conduce a la destrucción total. Afrontaré mi miedo. Permitiré que pase sobre mí y a través de mí. Y cuando haya pasado girare mi ojo interior para escrutar su camino. Allá donde haya pasado el miedo ya no habrá nada. Solo estare yo.” “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.” ― Frank Herbert, Dune

I have a big smile on my face without realizing watching this amazing interview.

[@marcux83]

Very humble man. Love it !

[@XanderVJ]

"El miedo mata la mente" is the actual official translation of the line in Spain, but it's more like "Fear kills the mind". Javier was remembering from the book, rather than translating it himself. The problem is that the word "killer" is not used in English the same way as it's more direct translation ("asesino") is used in Spanish. So the direct translation "El miedo es el asesino de la mente" sounds awkward and stilted, so they modified it a bit to make it sound more natural.

[@Marlowekay]

Thank you for generosity in translating the quote!!!

[@andresramirezcartagena7389]

Eso es correcto. El miedo un asesino de mentes pensé yo. Hehehe

[@carlplz00001]

Si.

[@tonyfan3]

What he did also is make alliteration and that is the beauty of our language

[@rafaelcuevas3209]

A painkiller is "analgésico" therefore, mindkiller is something that prevents you from thinking. Then "el miedo mata la mente" is a perfect translation.

[@sardog7765]

What a cool guy Javier Bardem is! He seems so warm and fun to talk to. I can't imagine how cool it would be to hang out with him doing anything, he just seems like he would be great to be around. Can't wait for the sequel to DUNE! I was so bummed when the movie stopped! They never got in to the heart of Dune! No worm riding by the main guy or anything. And I am not ashamed to say that I was so bummed when Oscar Isaac's character died! Oscar Isaac is an awesome actor! Love him in everything I have seen him in, like Card Counter, Triple Frontier and so many more. I bet that hanging out with Javier and Oscar must be so cool.

[@jaywinner328]

I like how seriously he took the translation request.

[@FabledGentleman]

There is a HUGE gap between Anton and Javier, holy dayhum.. The Coen brothers just saw something no one else could, and just did a perfect casting. And that was to cast this wonderful and colorful man to play the most sadistic psychopath in recent memory. Quite impressive indeed. And most impressive of all, that Javier could actually pull it off....

[@Daneelro]

It's not that no one else saw it, it's that the Coen brothers are versed in cinema outside the US. Bardem had a distinguished acting career in Spain before he got that role, with very powerful performances. I noticed him in _The Sea Inside_ in which he played a real person in Spain who fought for his right for euthanasia for 28 years after a car accident left him quadriplegic.
