Jon Hamm & Kristen Wiig | Actors on Actors

[@nivekian]

These are so much more fun to watch when it's people who know each other, and just vibe and rant.

[@davidfilmexpert]

What a great way to open the show by pretending to be asleep. Kristen and Jon are so funny together we need another movie with them together soon. They were so funny in Bridemaids.

[@kierancurtis5123]

Hey, I was a subscriber to your other channel and would regularly revisit the award shows. Can't see your channel anymore. What happend?

[@davidfilmexpert]

@@kierancurtis5123 My channel was disabled because I my documentary videos on The Story of Late Night was marked by the production company for copyright when they could've told me to just delete them. I only get three strikes and because there were six episode videos they shut down my channel. It really sucks, now I gotta start over.

If a Barbie movie was made about 15 years ago, Kristen Wiig and Jon Hamm would've been my choice for Barbie and Ken. The Bridesmaids' version of Barbie 😂

[@kast3059]

What about January Jones? She and Hamm were perfect Barbie and Ken during Mad Men. The most attractive couple in the tv history.

[@Mic-Mak]

@@kast3059 Great point! Something that really surprised with Mad Men, is the dislike some critics seem to have for January Jones. As far as I can remember, they thought that although she was great in the show, she is not a great actress in general. Every time I've seen a review of something she's in other than Mad Men, she was panned for her acting. Also, her SNL appearance. I personally have only seen her in Mad Men ad X-Men.

Two of my absolute favorite actors, thanks for this Variety.

[@andydv27]

Kristen and Jon are honestly one of my favorite actors!! They're great!!!

[@miriamgreen3973]

Not as criticism I honestly wouldn't have recognized her after her plastic work like Rene Z. Doesn't take away from their skill and class.

[@eddan1998]

Ah yes, that one actor Josten Hamwig, they're one of my favorite actor as well!

[@migalorsdarwin1930]

I dont know, did Jon finally talk about the Hazing incident?

[@beatnickblanket]

@@migalorsdarwin1930 In the only interview I've heard him discuss it in, he brushes it off as not nearly as bad as the victim described, and more or less says he's not guilty. He specifically says he was acquitted. his words. I have never heard a good word about him from anyone *I* know who has worked with him, and of course those people are all in lower positions in the industry so they aren't privy to his friendship the way Wiig is.

[@beatnickblanket]

@@miriamgreen3973 I literally don't see any form of work on her when I look at her. She looks like the 50 year old version of the same Kristin Wiig I've loved for for 20 years. *shrug* I see very little difference.

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Many thanks to Jon, Kristen, everyone at Variety and everyone involved with the production of ACTORS ON ACTORS. 🤩

[@jamiebuell5558]

Hamm's glasses look like those novelty 'I'm awake" glasses

[@abirobertscomedian]

The irony being he’s not ‘awake’ at all.

[@moody__lemon86]

Okay so first thing I thought when I saw the thumbnail was… Boom! What’s up f**k buddy!! Then it just got better and better 😂 Loved this pairing!!!

[@Murasakitsuyukusa]

Loved all of their recent works: Fargo, Palm Royale and Morning Show. Great actors, would love to see more of their films/shows in the future.

[@pearlsbeforeswine60]

I love these two, and it's such a pleasure to hear Wiig discuss her work in her day to day mode. Same with John Hamm. Plus they've worked together and like each other, so it makes for a great conversation.

[@betocreativo]

I didn't knew these two were good good friends even though I watched them together in SNL various times. Funny conversation, props to @Variety

[@gabriellewestbrook8806]

I wish Kristen Wiig got more credit for her performance in Palm Royale in this interview. SO many times throughout the season of the show I kept forgetting that it was Kristen Wiig, she did so amazing being her character!

[@adamtoronibyrne1086]

There are so many extras on the Bridesmaids Blu-ray and many of the best ones are between Kristen and John… they are so funny together. Kristen Wiig’s natural laugh is just so infectious and they play so well together. This interview is pure joy.

[@sparkythancztwise]

*To all the people upset by his interjecting and interrupting (whether you are commenting about it or not).* I *hate* being interrupted rudely and talked over. By men or women. But especially by a certain type of man, for certain types of reasons. I'm a mature woman with a lot of experiences. I'm *not* an apologist for *dicks.* Only aim for even handed sensibility. I am glad I didn't get offended or even bothered by his manners, and watched the whole video. *Very glad.* Here's my two and twenty cents on the topic: Yes, it's good to be alert and aware of these things while we work with dedication (to one another and for our own well-being), and shift social dynamics that haven't served any of us optimally. We are better off careful about excessive judgement or making any false accusations in generalizing. People who can come around won't when we put them on defense. Takes diplomacy. So that's my stance in general terms on topic. As for here in this case? He may have had an off day, and might not be a serial offender in terms of disrespect. I think she was a lot more alert and aware in her presence and attuned to the setting and to the conversation, and his manners were not on a par with hers. He was excited in an almost endearing child-like way. I didn't get the overbearing "I'm the man and you're just a woman" vibe that I am all too familiar with. I hope it was merely an off day for him (as far as exercising better conversational manners), due to his being excited to see her -since they are real friends with history and it's been awhile since they got to connect face to face. And I'm hoping he has a lot of better days in general when it comes to more even back and forth with listening and making inquiry, when talking with women in general. I don't know, or know him. But she does. And I don't get the sense that she is merely covering for him, while being professional and gracious, and don't get the sense that she doesn't feel respected by him. They did crazy comedic intimacy scenes in Bridesmaids. She co-wrote Bridesmaids and I bet had a say in casting to a fair degree. Also doubt Apatow would have brought him on board if he was not a team player with women, on *that film.* Apatow has a rare kind of marriage with Leslie Mann, and is one of the respectful men.

[@Retski7]

This is so warm hearted

[@oldhollywoodfan8009]

I couldn’t finish watching. All he did was interrupt her every time she was about to say something. Hope others were able to enjoy.
