[@teodoraspasovska8347]

Don't forget that he said Stiles is the best possible character in the world and that Stiles will always be his favourite

[@Sophialochart2010]

Yeah mine too

[@studiomsfm]

lmfao and not returning to play Stiles :(((((((( i understand though

[@caitlinsedits1574]

the fact that the interviewer asked if it was a to personal question is amazing!!! most interviewers just jump right into the question, most of them dont know how personal the question actually is.

[@littleruiners]

Yeah, cause it's Josh. He is a good person and a great interviewer.

[@summervarenica6948]

what inncident happened

[@kayleeboehm3882]

@Paige Watkinson it was the 3rd one

[@Cecelia_tmr0thg]

I LOVE Josh SM!!!!!! He's literally the best and nicest and he knows what he's talking about!

[@evieramosi]

this video should be titled 'You Know by Dylan O'brien'

[@rutherfordcf]

evieramosi 😂😂😂

[@brioblu8]

He always says "i know" HAHAHA I've seen a lot of his interviews and i noticed it. It makes me laugh lol

[@lararojas4012]

“Or something like that” maybe as well 😂

[@kat6766]

HAHAHA I COUNTED IT. 44 TIMES HE SAID 'YOU KNOW' OMG HAHA

[@amiachelle9989]

Omg now I can’t unhear it!🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@kelialollos1666]

i love the way he says "you know" so much this time he reached 38 times

[@mayflower7811]

You counted

[@melissa12puggy555]

May Flower lol

[@bdragon113]

It kind of reminds me of Paul Walker especially the early interview when he was younger.

[@brallndunseph8670]

And the "yeah"😂

[@murthagg]

Does he always do this? This is the first interview I saw with him.

[@ayeeeeeitsrachel]

dylan is honestly one of the best actors i've ever seen and i'm so proud of him for everything he's accomplished and i'm looking forward to seeing anything and everything he does career wise (:

[@dangeroussnake108]

faith trust pan Or you havent seen more than 10 movies in your entire life or you must be joking. I dont see any other explanation. He has potential but calling him one of the best ? 😂

[@ayeeeeeitsrachel]

he's one of the best actors i've ever seen. my opinion. and his emotional acting is superb. the way he portrays anger, and fear, and sadness is exceptional. he's just a great actor overall.

[@AnzaShadow]

Matias The Herring He's a great actor but I must agree with you that he ain't one of the best, not yet. One of the best young actors is a little more accurate imo

[@joe-annobrien2265]

THIS IS EXACTLY THE SAME FOR ME OMFFFFFFFFFGGGGGGGGG 😌😍🤤😭😭🙏🏻💍🤞🏻

[@AnzaShadow]

@Jordan Harrison Which suggests that she hasn't seen a lot of movies. Or she's just fangirling.

[@honeymuffinx]

new drinking game: take a shot every time dylan says "you know"

[@elaine9396]

not a new game. Someone mentions it on every video interview of his.

[@zuraahmad4650]

LOL 😂😂😂

[@m011ynice03]

Have fun tomorrow morning 😂

[@Aziexxx]

I totally agree with Dylan, he does seem so much older now. Makes me kinda sad that he lost a bit of his inner kid cuz of a stupid, avoidable accident. Glad to see he's on the other side of it now though ♥️

[@mayflower7811]

I believe that he's going to go far I bet he is even going to win an #OSCAR

[@esmeraldaflores7713]

Aziexxx I just hope he doesn't hate Wes and the rest of the cast... They were like a family ;-;

[@melissa12puggy555]

Aziexxx I think he looks different now cuz he had to have facial constructive surgery after his accident. So that may be why he looks older...poor Dylan..but I'm glad he's okay n back at work.

[@lashaunatyler9302]

do you know what exactly happened to him in the accident??

[@melissa12puggy555]

LaShauna Monet' Bell I think the accident occurred when he was doing a stunk (in TDC) and he was like hit by a car or something.

[@farelwisnubrata6154]

"you know.."

[@Monkiebuddy]

This was a solid interview. Like the interviewer didn’t push too much and the conversation felt natural. Go Dyl!

[@aamariamitchell2419]

Dylan is extremely attractive😍

[@lisajeidnd2038]

Yeah🥰🤤

[@Cecelia_tmr0thg]

duhhhh🤩🥰

[@elsalazaro9858]

I will miss teen wolf 🐺 😩😩😩

[@mayflower7811]

We all will don't forget this Sunday we will be getting episodes 18 and 19 which means #TEENWOLF will be for 2 hours and Dylan will reprise his role as Stiles for 1 last time

[@jessec511]

Elsa Lazaro sameeeee

[@cancabonch7637]

AMERICAN ASSASSIN Full HD Quality = plus.google.com/+ThoeWilcentMovie/posts/83FH78bUdN9

[@wildflowermeg]

It hasn't finished yet lol

[@MsTdiniz]

He is so talented! He can navigate between action movies, horror and comedy easily. He has a great timing for comedy too. I will miss Stiles and Teen Wolf and i can't wait to see dylan new projects!

[@sweeperboy]

Agreed. To be honest, this is the right time to move on. It would look really weird if in a few years' time at the age of 30 he was playing a teenager still. Also the show, great as it is, should go out on a high rather than running out of ideas and getting progressively lamer. This is an opportunity for him to really launch his movie career into the superstar category if things go well for him. Onwards and upwards!

[@Bamgeutcutiepie]

Dylan’s eyes are so beautiful, expressive, warm and kind. 🖤

[@xSuperFunny715x]

It's so sad that every interview talks about his accident because you can still see the pain in his face and how he looks away and only makes eye contact for a second when he is discussing it

[@Cecelia_tmr0thg]

k well at least Josh was nice about it

[@meganortiz5580]

I wanna hug him so bad

[@mollywobbles23]

Great interviewer! Finally some one with some tact and empathy, and gave Dylan an out before he had even asked the question. Both professional and just a good human. Well done!

[@markmata6641]

The guy still doesn't "know" what Dylan is talking about. You know?

[@natashalawrence6922]

I love Dylan O'Brien so much and have done for the last 5 or so years, I have so much respect for him getting back up and onto a film set, that takes balls and the mental as well as physical battle must have been unimaginable, so so proud, American Assassin was amazing and so was Maze Runner, lots of love! Xxx

[@adrianoines521]

Okay this guy is like my favorite interviewer. Out of all the press interviews I've watched, this guy is one of the few that consistently has a good time with casts whether it is marvel, teen wolf, american assassin, maze runner, hunger games, mortal instruments, sherlock, or literally any other group he has interviewed. This man is amazing.

[@giadacattaneo2384]

don’t forget he said “you know”

[@pm-lz9bv]

im gonna miss Stiles 😭

[@summervarenica6948]

the fact that he even said he grew up makes me sad I miss his sarcastic kid ness inside

[@harleyxoo]

teen wolf brought dylan to where he is it's sad to see it go. :(

[@isa-bh7wh]

harleyxo actually, Dylan (+ the rest of the cast members, especially Tyler) brought Teen Wolf to where it is now.

[@harleyxoo]

Isa Rio lol ok but they show did bring dylan to where he is

[@isa-bh7wh]

harleyxo aight whatever

[@Autumnnn-o5x]

STILES GREW UP SO MUCH OMFG He was so little cute and fluffy and now hes just grown up so muchhhh

[@a.r.abella3087]

Whatever happens, I will always be here supporting! Dylan you'll always be Dylan to me, IDGAF with the changes they're inevitable as long as you always do you, and not be someone else unless of course during the films :D xx

[@cloudnyne3487]

"Um, Y'know"- Dylan O'Brien - Basically every one of his interviews But he's still a great actor.

[@niamhgibbons4707]

See? He's more comfortable talking about it if you warn him and not be insensitive about it. Thank you for being a really good interviewer :)

[@hubiafaizi7277]

I love Dylan O'Brien 💖💖💖

[@esthersulcapuma672]

I am so proud of this man. He's so talented and deserves everything.

[@amyw4558]

Aw he's looked so much older since the accident and his facial reconstruction surgery but I'm glad he's feeling better now

[@elainehunt3264]

He doesn't look any older now than he did before the accident. It just depends on the photos you look at. He looks young all clean cut and shaven like Stiles. He looks older with some scruff on his face when he is just Dylan off camera.

[@kindasorta.rand0m]

He's so adorable

[@nakayla9746]

I love his whole life man 💗💗

[@annairwin696]

Dylan throughout “no, you know,I know, right”

[@kikifire9113]

Dylan did a great job on American Assassin, I loved it. I think he's an incredible actor and hope to see him share his talent in some emotional roles, too. I love the action, don't get me wrong but I think everyone will agree that he brought out a lot of emotion in all of us as Stiles. Just please try not to be so critical of him interviewing about something so personal. It's got to be uncomfortable for him to bring this topic up. I'm so happy to see that he's healed on the outside and hope that he's recovering as well on the inside. It was a serious physical trauma, that takes time and support. Strange how life imitates art, or is it vice versa? Perhaps fate gave him this role as a recovering trauma survivor for a reason...

[@kaykaybruno]

I'm crying 😭

[@habsaaaa]

one of the best interviews of him

[@dai985]

Now for American Assassin!!!

[@lovethesnark]

honestly i need just ONE interviewer to not even fucking bring UP the accident, he hates talking about it but feels obligated to and why is it neccessary?

[@memoriyourhomeiswithme9787]

lovethesnark agree

[@dess234]

lovethesnark he's not obligated the interviews literally asked if it was a too personal question and Dylan answered. He could've said no and left it at that, if Dylan didn't want to answer he wouldn't have answered, don't get your panties in a twist.

[@elaine9396]

Des Bethea - He was asked ON THE SPOT in the interview. So yes, he would feel obligated to answer or risk looking like a jerk.

[@lovethesnark]

Exactly what Elaine said. Even just asking at all, on camera, is enough to make him feel obligated or else he has to spend every interview doing i dont wanna talk about that's as answers

[@elaine9396]

Des Bethea - also, in case you didn't notice, he beat around the bush about it and didn't really answer (because he didn't want to). The interviewer asked about what actually happened THAT DAY. I don't think Dylan has ever answered that question publicly.

[@rogenabdalla6188]

He seems so confused half the time. He keeps zoning off.

[@meh.4161]

maybe he's tired. lotsa promo for the movie

[@thesmolestcunj1058]

shot everytime he says "Yeah"

[@esmeraldaflores7713]

TOTALLY NOT CRYING

[@punkdadash1298]

The man is 26 what is he suppose to look 5?? Like I see some changes to but he doesn't look older he's literally just not polished from head to toe and that's fine he doesn't have to look like a sprinkle of fairy dust on a Sunday instead of commenting about how old he looks embrace that ur actually seeing an actor being NATURAL for once in a while because most actors are forever polished he looks beautiful regardless he's 26 the man looks his age

[@rachelcrepeault7617]

I loved American Assassian ,I think I've watched it over 20 times. I hope he gets to be in more or they make more.

[@anithmedina8733]

why this only have 4 comments, im gonna mis the shit out of him and teen wolf!!!!

[@Steph-ds6fk]

im going to cry when teen wolf ends it is my no.1 tv show of all time im going to miss stiles so much and i hope dylan dose more tv shows

[@skyline324]

Dylan O'Brien is the best actor in the world ♡♡

[@mayraarduini]

Startd out just paying attention to the interview and after reading the comments on the "You Know" thing, it was all I could hear.

[@hushyuhmouth3281]

Mayra Arduini 😂

[@stephaniebrown6862]

Mayra Arduini Same

[@mayflower7811]

This is Dylan's week first #AMERICANASSASSIN is coming out on Friday and he is returning to #TeenWolf this Sunday this weekend is going to be lit. BTW don't forget this weekend will be a 2 part episode so we will get double the Dylan #TEENWOLFFORLIFE #FOREVERSTILES

[@shivanikailash6651]

May Flower Dylan didn't come in even one of the 2 episodes:( i was so sad. He's gonna come only in the finale. I'm so sad

[@tashabarguss3815]

He's the cutest 💕

[@MissMarisa7Beauty]

Everyone talking about “you know” but what about the amount of times he says “I guess”

[@lightofeyezz]

And "yeah"

[@amalmuni5776]

I know , " you know "

[@jiminsinfiredsugaglazedkoo1306]

Take a shot every time Dylan says yeah.

[@animaguil]

we should’ve have an “ultimately” count. I’ve heard it about 5 times so far and I’m on 5:46. ily Dylan and (ultimately) I’m proud of you! you’re (ultimately) the greatest actors ever and I can’t wait to (ultimately) see you in future projects! (Jokes aside I seriously can’t wait for The Death Cure and the rest of the American Assassin series [i plan on reading the series because your character is so captivating])

[@kristills6621]

Stiles would always be an iconic character....

[@nicolebueno7963]

I don't know but I think he lost that huge glow he had, I always think it was because of the accident ... That makes me sad

[@melissa12puggy555]

Nicole Bueno I just mentioned in a previous post..I think he looks diff cuz he had to have facial constructive surgery after his accident

[@harleyxoo]

Nicole Bueno he broke bones in his face you can't expect him to look like 2014 dylan lol

[@aqilahali2024]

Melissa Rumble 😭😭😭😭😭

[@GeorgiaIsOnMyMind]

Nicole Bueno No. Its cause he's started drinking heavily.

[@ma_kenz]

@Nicole Bueno I know what you mean, but I think it definitely still depends on his company. Watching him in interviews with Taylor Kitsch shows he's still got that vibrancy that we all love; but he's said as much that the accident has grown him up in a lot of ways.

[@Tursiz]

honestly what ages him is his beard and the hairstyle. go look for TW last season trailer he looks way younger there.

[@IvoryEmpire]

You are the Blood I can’t bare to lose

[@01lozzie]

he is absolutely gorgeous

[@kat6766]

Dylan Obrien saying constantly "you know" aka 44 times I counted it😂

[@wc999]

can't wait for this film

[@Justinhulk]

You know?? I KNOW WHAT

[@yanareenaers6125]

Why does this have so little of views?

[@ironmike1761]

if there is ever going to be a super hero movies dylan should play in it

[@audretwelch3328]

My poor baby...

[@jasmink7231]

He's the best❤

[@martinan.7742]

Le volte che dice “you now” non si possono contare hahahah lo amo

[@mikmik8039]

Can someone count how many times he said "you know"? Please, i need to know

[@shen_1914]

38

[@alinatotal.2602]

Yes Dylan I know 😂

[@maryyamrazzaq2047]

Dylan is so cute. So there will be a third maze runner movie?

[@barbaro267]

Yeah, Death Cure is coming out in February in the states! Grab your Kleenex before you go!!

[@calpicobabes.9533]

I’m am so pissed because American Assassin is rated 18 meaning I can’t bloody go watch it in cinemas 😭

[@obsessivefangirl5055]

God I wish these interviewers would stop asking him about that accident...it was obviously traumatic for him and brings back painful memories that he could really do without being reminded of in every shucking interview (glader slang😂😂)

[@banukonacoglu4202]

Dylan 😍

[@mtbultmann]

I saw dylan in croydon

[@awesometacularhero]

I am excited, for American Assassin to come out this Friday. But, after Dylan got out of the hospital from his unexpected accident, what did he do first? Did he, go back and finish the 3rd and last maze runner movie? Did he, work on American Assassin first? Or, was it the other way around? Does anyone know?

[@rutherfordcf]

Victor Figueroa I think he was doing Maze Runner

[@minstrels11]

American assassin was filmed before he went back to maze runner

[@jessec511]

Dylan 💕💕💕😍😍😍

[@manelumi]

He is beautiful !!!

[@memoriyourhomeiswithme9787]

I love Dylan and can't wait to TDC

[@clara8156]

Idk how he is know since I feel like he has been out of the spotlight for awhile recently and he doesnt use instagram but during this time he was going through a very sad emotional time because of his accident

[@erinmacarthur7336]

I honestly think if Dylan o'Brien and the director of a sifi movie plus they were looking for someone to play his little sister I'm sure Mrs. Sahar would bring the script to me also to get a chance to work with a celebrity will be a great dream come true.

[@vincevirtua]

"So anyway man, this is all good but tell me about the accident? No really, what happened? Was it really bad? What actually happened. Dylan. Dylan! Come back Dylan! "

[@watermelon..baby12]

In Season 2 of Teen Wolf, the last episode......I was crying the entire time basically (because Stiles lied about Gerard beating him up). Also, the hunters drive me insane, I accidentally broke my computer screen......oops

[@diegopisfil614]

He looks like David Bowie+Kevin Bacon+Ricky Gervais+Norman Reedus+Benicio del Toro+Logan Lerman+James Dean+Christian Slater+Leonardo DiCaprio+Javier Bardem+Zac Efron+Louis Tomlinson+Jim Carrey+Rob Lowe+Ewan McGregor+Jason Bateman+Kenneth Branagh+Christopher Plummer+Ian Somerhalder+Harry Styles+Michael Jackson+Charlie Heaton

[@danmacr]

NO DYLAN! I. DON’T. KNOW

[@julesdipietro1619]

You know? You know.

[@barbaro267]

Wait, this is a book series? The movie trailer made the film look so generic and unoriginal. There are multiple books about an assassin/weapons and combat trained guy out for revenge? Really?

[@Bamgeutcutiepie]

Just realized Dylan reminds me of Kim Taehyung actaully. i don't know WHY......

[@Numbermind]

How was his beard so patchy here 4 years ago.. and now he has a fully beard?

[@joe-annobrien2265]

MY HUSBAND MY BOY MY ALL MY MAN MY EVERYTHING JUST MINE I LOVE HIM SO FUCKING MUCH OMFFFFFFFFFGGGGGGGGG 🤞🏻💍🙏🏻😭🤤😌😍

[@rainylovescantthy]

[@mjprwalker]

He is hot rEally i love him so muchhh💋💋💋💋

[@hontexbr]

coloquem em uma legenda PT BR

[@MenelisiDladla]

he looks better shaved

[@classicstorm]

Did the movie not do well is that why they didn't turn the other books into movies...I liked the movie a bit boring but it was pretty interesting...

[@marcusmcgill4423]

Heard he and Keaton were great, but the movie itself wasn't all that great. Still going to check it out though.
