Great interview. Whire Collar made me a huge Matt Bomer fan, and I went back, to watch everything he had done . He is obviously very well educated and very well spoken, as well as being extremely handsome. I so wish for more White Collar. The ending left room for more Neal; I don't feel that his story is finished.

[@valclark1567]

I love these long interviews by the very multi-talented Matt Bomer, they are so insightful when he reveals so much about himself particularly regarding all the research he does for every role he plays, his dedication to his profession is phenomenal. He’s extremely intelligent and articulate and his command of the English language is brilliant, I sometimes have to look up the definition of some of the words he uses as I’ve never heard them before so he educates me as well as entertaining me. He’s such a genuinely nice guy both inside and out and is so very humble and complimentary about his fellow humans, I admire him so very much and wish him continuing success in everything he does, I know he says that his family is his greatest accomplishment and may he always feel that way!

[@cywawalsh1747]

I absolutely agree with you. I could listen to his beautiful voice and the so insightful und smart things he talks about. I hope he'll have a lot more successful career years. He is such a wonderful person inside and out.

[@saikorudikasenda47]

I would love to see Matt Bomer in more leading roles in films and television series.

[@independentpolitics3703]

Iko Rudi they usually never do that. People are fine with straight actors playing gay, but they rarely ever hire an openly gay man to lead a popular film, even if that openly gay actor pretends to be straight.

[@kinocchio]

Hope you watched Season 3 of The Sinner.

[@sandradigras1396]

I loved white collar. Matt is a wonderful actor I too wish he had more leading man regardless of his sexuality. He is adorable.

[@SassySkylar]

I SO enjoyed watching this interview. What a talented, intelligent, well spoken, gracious, fun and funny person Matt is. He deserves every success and happiness.

[@traciberry5141]

Such an intelligent and articulate man. And beautiful in his appreciation of his industry. And the man is still hot as hell. So hoping they do some white collar mini series. I would love to see Matt in a series again.

[@camrynalvares3675]

Is it just me who loves the way he says “because”

[@JanetCoop]

I think it was really warm the day this was filmed and there were mosquitos in the room; Matt obviously got stung a couple of times, but he doesn't over-react and call attention to it...He scratches the itch but doesn't go off about it...He has such elegance and class...

[@bettyshepard3312]

The first time I saw Matt Bomer was in the movie “ Anything “ I fell in love with Freda , wa - la Matt Bomer ! I looked up everything Matt Bomer ( and I mean everything ) the rest is history , love you Matt ❤️👵🏼💜

[@ibrichm.3202]

I am late but still. Great interview, one of the best I think. I'm grateful that I got to discover some of Matt Bomer's work this past year (White Collar, The Normal Heart, The Boys in the Band, The Sinner,...) and I'm looking forward to see him appear in more projects. Not only is he an incredibly talented actor, he is also authentic, and such a kind and humble human being. Nothing but love and respect for this man.

[@BelindaNeal66]

I would love to see Matt on stage for real. I think he would be outstanding! I've followed him since White Collar and is a superb actor, he is flawless!

[@olivermateee547]

I NOTICED matt from white-collar and when I started to realise I'd seen him somewhere before I have now realised he's in EVERYTHING! I love it. Can't believe he was in texas chainsaw, or AHS he's so nice.

[@theresapace892]

beautiful inside and out. fab interview. so humble and generous. please more leading roles

[@geniusfollower]

40:45 - I did not know that Matt directed an episode of Assassination of Gianni Versace! I went back and rewatched that superb episode! Also Cooper Anderson directed Blaine!!! Thank you for this incredible interview. Matt's Normal Heart performance and the way he carried Neal Caffrey are once in a lifetime kinda roles.

[@valclark1567]

What a terrific interview, Matt is so well informed and interesting to listen to and when you add his humour to the mix it makes for compulsive viewing. He’s a really fantastic storyteller so I can well understand why he chose acting as a career it’s what he was born to do and he excels at it. I could listen to him all day and never tire of his stories they are so very entertaining!

[@feg3akatrey144]

This was a FANTASTIC interview with Matt Bomer; excellent interviewer, great questions, insightful answers. I typically tune-out after 10min on most interviews, but I watched this to the end. I especially enjoyed his Diahann Carroll story, in this interview before she passed. I hope Matt continues to work regularly for the rest of his life so we are able to enjoy his talent and gallantry.

[@bettyshepard3312]

You are a dream that I feel I haven’t woken up too, love you Matt ❤️👵🏼💜

[@Cosmopolitan23]

We are looking forward to watch him in more films and tv series ....#Mattmania

[@vino140]

It's time for this neat actor to get roles where sexuality doesnt matter. Isnt an issue. Typecasting (as gay) must stop. Bomer is swell person.

[@Evelyn-k7o]

Es un excelente actor,no deberían encasillarlo,es versátil y genial además de poseer un encanto especial ❤❤🇵🇷

[@arianapuzzo7827]

This was great! I knew that Matt had a goofy spirit to him courtesy of the White Collar gag reels, but he really is such a character. He seems really in his element and relaxed here.

[@HT69MM]

Matt Bomer is so beautiful!!!! I can’t believe!

[@kahlan4106]

I love Matt Bomer in AHS

[@briancphillips12]

I would like to see Matt Boomer as the new Batman.

[@shangrila73eldorado]

He's a great actor. I'm amused by how his voice modulates along interviews, sometimes deep and sometimes high-pitched and "gay"...

[@teeniebeenie8774]

did he win for NOrmal Heart? he dam sure should have !

[@teeniebeenie8774]

clone him asap !!!

[@sarahs7669]

Not the Emmy, but he should have.

[@maritere1939]

Un gran actor, lástima que los directores hollywoodenses, aquí tienen a un guapísimo, perfecto, simpático, sexy, gran ser humano y ante todo, sin importar su preferencia sexual (irrelevante para ser un magnífico actor) , lo adoro.

[@AaronSaltzer]

I watched The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning last night. He was sexy in that movie. He clearly has not changed in that aspect. Lol

[@rickroli893]

Aaron Saltzer yes that’s the first time I saw him, crush ever since the chainsaw! 😍

[@oscarreilly1380]

The Perfect Reed Richards 👌🏾

[@JoshAragon]

Bomer should be a bigger star

[@calbates6457]

Neil Caffery!

[@jamesungiran3017]

what happens to the letters "ATION" at the end of FOUNDATION, when there is a close-up of Matt?

[@nkirvalidze]

Really!

[@lounirescence]

the letters behind him when there's a close up are part of the twitter handle and it doesn't include "ation"

[@delorespleasance8909]

I like him

[@camdieu1554]

MATT BOMER đẹp quá ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@chris200933]

Too bad he was discreminated about superhero roles. That's what i read in the Net. But he does voice acting though in TV animation. I'd like to see him one of the Green Lantern or any superhero roles in the future. Maybe a more solo horror suspense movie and his the villain because his eyes talk a lot in many ways so believe he will be great on those roles

[@jrwxtx]

What does he mean by Forensics training?

[@JanetCoop]

Speech & debate

[@ChineseAmerican50]

He is really amazing person. Love the way he talks. Love his characters. Only don’t like “magic Mike”

[@janetcooper1074]

Find the clip of Matt's "Ken Doll" routine that was cut from the 1st "Magic Mike" & watch how much fun he's having!!

[@userwww379]

6:40 what are notes guys help

[@JanetCoop]

I think Joe made notes on the script and story line as he read it (Why does the character feel this, how does he feel here, why would he say that?) Listen to how Matt describes what the characters are feeling...

[@LarraArtmanova]

My imagination, stop it, please...

[@bettyshepard9450]

Oh let it go , I do , I have even been married to him and I am 71 years old, imaginations are great , you can do anything you want 👵🏼❤️💜😷😷

[@hkbenedictma]

first. wish Matty b was my hubbie
