I don’t want anymore medical dramas. I want a Pushing Daisies revival please 😭

[@jessmyarchiveofeverything4341]

I'm glad someone said it lmfao

[@meep9963]

I barely see any interviews with him, this is great. His interviews are more rare than Cillian Murphy’s..

[@trashleymessbrough9483]

The Sponge it was an over the phone interview awhile back (the one this interviewer referenced)

[@meep9963]

Ashley-Rose Coubrough What?

[@thenoxbox3871]

Go and watch “Conversations with Lee Pace”, it’s a long interview from 2018, it’s really great.

[@meep9963]

The Nox Box Cool!

[@meep9963]

Lola Montez This was months ago, chill

[@teresamessenger5399]

Bring back pushing daisies!!

[@abluetale1016]

Teresa Messenger BRING IT BACK ALONG WITH MERLIN

[@RasmusBergHviid]

I feel almost protective of Lee, he is so professional, sweet and polite, even when faced with these invasive questions. You could see him being uncomfortable with a few of the questions, and how dare you, put up a tweet he wrote stating that, when during interviews aka talking to the press or media he like to keep it professional and the focus on the work - yet you dare ask him this invasive shit. Jesus...

[@nothingbutintroverted4372]

he seemed alright i mean i think he knew it was coming but he answered it very well and honestly and the interviewer was receptive and didn’t pry

[@Alagboriel]

as a queer person myself I find it super annoying when people push being queer as the whole personality. It makes anyone look uninteresting as if they dont have anything else happening in their lives.

[@alicewonders329]

The interviewer: So I can't call you to fix my car ever? *hitting on lee pace* Lee Pace: Hahahahahha, what?

[@snap-n-shoot]

Pushing Daisys being cancelled is on par with the cancellation of Firefly. This was an exceptional quirky show that had so much further to go. Hopefully they see fit to bring it back and get Anna Friel back also who has been brilliant in Marcella.

[@mspurefunk5]

I agree 100%!

[@junim.l5794]

He is so beautiful but I think the highlight of his beauty are his eyes and eyebrows. His eyes are very captivating, it's expressive. This is one of the reasons why his characters are always on point. He was able to gave justice to all of his characters. Indeed, he is one of the greatest actors ever existed not to mention one of the hottest/beautiful human I've seen. And Thranduil will be my majestic Elvenking forever.🥰

[@jessmyarchiveofeverything4341]

This was actually a really good interview. The charisma coming from both of them kept the pace flowing really well. ♥️

[@meloderieugif2294]

If he doesn't want to talk about his personal life that with him, that's just lack of respect from people to ask him about his sexuality .

[@boffgirl]

I would do anything for a pushing daisy revival. I think when it came out 10 years ago it was at the wrong time. With today's tele, the stuff that comes out, with netflix and amazon prime i feel it would have done so much better in today's times.

[@hospee]

It’s on HBO max now. It originally aired in 2007.

[@boffgirl]

@@hospee not American we do have HBO

[@senoritaaurora5123]

People are allowed privacy. Noone needs to share their sexuality, political beliefs or religion or anything else if they don't want to.

[@NotTheGodOfWar]

He is such a sweetheart

[@millajean3115]

he doesnt owe anyone anything, to him, being queer has been his entire life, it's just him, he has no need to state it to the public. you don't ask a heterosexual person about them being straight and invade their privacy? so why is it different for people within the queer community. it's not something that needs to be asked, and when asked yoou need to be respectful of peoples privacy and not push it when theyre clearly uncomfortable.

[@andrearojas3686]

Bring back Pushing Daisies!! 😭💕

[@uhavemooface]

I don't want a revival of pushing daisies I want a series of pushing daises where they start on season 3. Where they left off from season 2 back in 07

[@aneetakaursekhon1281]

I love Lee so much he's so chill and the interviewer seems insufferable kind of gay.

[@felicitysmoakandwillgraham6453]

I really hope Pushing Daisies gets revived 🙏

[@valendussan]

WE NEED PUSHING DAISES!!

[@0Acacia22]

Lovely, Gorgeous and Awesome as always Lee.

[@GittiW260]

Simply the best!

[@francescaseyer4709]

Oh my, Lee Pace forever 😍 Loved him as Thranduil; totally adored him as Michael Pardue…but nothing pulls my heartstrings and makes my heart throb as seeing him as Ned forever in love with Chuck 💘💓 Yes please, a Pushing Daisies revival if you please 🙏

[@kimberleywien4231]

Creepy ass interviewer. He desperately hitting on his guest on air.

[@anitkaczatlas7860]

I Love Lee Pace 💞💞💖💖💖

[@purplemilk8761]

I love him so much!!!

[@saiwilliams9467]

I LOVE YOU LEEEEEEE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@MusketeerGweneth]

We need Ned to bring Pushing Daisies back to life! Which show should give it's life so that Pushing Daisies might live?! 🤔

[@emmekresek8048]

Funny concept! Any reality show could go.

[@haRik8245]

Lee pace ti ei khaktagini...noi amtagi oiba yaroi. In fact, already eigi oirabani. Mityeng karan chanbirunuko. Love you, lee :)

[@dianacanales2526]

I've seen much better interviews that engage Lee's mind with pertinent ideas regarding his work. This interviewer seems to struggle with how to be respectful of Lee's boundaries. That part made the interview uncomfortable and unnecessary because it's irrelevant to his work. Lee Pace is an extraordinarily talented actor. Please respect his private boundaries. Much love to Lee Pace, and will look for him on other channels.

[@sabie30]

Pushing daisies please

[@HimeBaezChan]

Wow, he looks a bit old now. But so handsome and cute still.

[@nah270]

the comment he made about body scans and being repaced but in 2023, soothsayer

[@n0vares]

Please reboot it

[@superlung8889]

IT WOULD

[@trashleymessbrough9483]

So has Lee fully come out? Is he gay or bi? I know in the phone interview they were talking about , the interviewer pretty intrusive :/ and some lines weren’t clear

[@meep9963]

Bisexual, and what interview?

[@JDMimeTHEFIRST]

He’s bisexual. It is weird to ask people their sexuality at work though. I just find it strange. No one asks straight people when they came out as straight or when they knew. They are doing interviews to talk about work/ acting, etc.

[@JDMimeTHEFIRST]

It would be weird if someone randomly asked their dentist or cashier if they came out as bisexual yet. Like excuse me, but you’re a customer and I don’t have to tell you my personal information not pertaining to my career.

[@trashleymessbrough9483]

@@JDMimeTHEFIRST yeah I know He previously had a phone interview where the interviewer basically forced him to come out with their intrusive questions So I was asking if he himself has come out yet publicly/proudly or if it was just the shitfy way that person made him say it in an interview 🤷🏼‍♀️ However , this comment is pretty old and he's now posted his BF and him on Instagram 💜 very cute couple

[@heiitse]

he’s bi right?

[@JunKurosu]

Gay

Actors probably will become obsolete in the near future when it becomes easier and less expensive to let AI do the work.

[@minamina-fc8wk]

Does lee pace is gay?? I feel like he is

[@perpetual61]

Why do you care and if he is Bi, Straight or whatever he's still one Beautiful and Talented person.

[@nmaister5]

Mystic messenger reference?!?!

[@marcelfr90]

Yes, he is gay and he was in a relationship with Armitage, the lead in The Hobbit.

[@nmaister5]

@@marcelfr90 no way, are there any videos or pictures of them together?

[@marcelfr90]

@@nmaister5 Yes. You can google them. There is also a gif in which you can see them flirting and its very evident that Lee is effeminate in real life.

[@italiagorino6358]

He is so handsome that he must be gay..that is hollywood...

[@benswindlehurst1857]

As a gay man I can assure not all gay men are handsome. I’ve dated some real dogs.

Loved “Halt and Catch Fire.” The worst title in the history of ever but the entire cast was so good. Please watch it.
