Owen Teague on Planet of the Apes, Spending a Week with Chimpanzees & Meeting Bubbles

Owen talks about this being his first time on a talk show, playing an ape in Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, wearing a motion capture suit, what his audition was like, going to ape school, spending a week with chimpanzees in Florida, seeing Michael Jackson’s chimp Bubbles there, and wondering if people will recognize him at the premiere.

He is way underrated as an actor, I hope this film puts him in the spotlight

[@dash5small642]

owen is a great guy. we used to play xbox together on occasion. great to see him get the recognition he deserves for his work 👏

[@HadToShareThisYT]

Xbox? When?

[@raulcitraro]

Yep! He is a great guy!

For real, Noa does look like Owen, I kept thinking that through the whole film

[@celestech133]

he really does 😭 i was really surprised when i saw the actor

[@Einstein4203]

Love it when guest shake hands with Guillermo

[@DarkAngel-ow1ck]

It seems like we’re in an era where underrated actors are finally getting the recognition they deserve (Austin Butler, Jamie Campbell Bower, Owen, Glen Powell).

[@dina2dag62]

That's because Brad Pitt, Jonnny Depp & Tom Cruise are old now, time for the young ones.

[@kikicameron]

i have loved this man since it omg im so happy hes getting recognition

[@HadToShareThisYT]

Same here! I’m he’s fan since 2016 and I’m so happy for him❤

[@BriarPatchNyra]

Likewise!

[@DarkAngel-ow1ck]

That was the first thing I saw him in. Even though he didn’t have a lot of screen time he was still very memorable.

[@Harry-bn5mp]

I can definitely see Noah in his eyes and eyebrows. Too many jokes and interruptions Jimmy!!!!!

[@movieforge01]

100%. He wasn't taking the interview very seriously. I would have actually liked to hear about the movie. Motion capture is a totally different world. Missed opportunity

[@MisssKayy]

This is a comedy show.

[@movieforge01]

@@MisssKayy your thinking of SNL. This is a late night "talk" show.

[@iflostpleasereturn6135]

he’s actually such a good actor, i hope to see him in more projects in the future

[@Arnuuld]

Chill guy. Kinda looks like a mix between a young John Travolta and Garret Hedlund

[@braindedpxl]

Now that you mention it… Holy sht, that’s right…I see it

[@Jemy-e5r]

Yeah, now that you mention it ... 😅

[@Geronimo_Jehoshaphat]

Looks like he could be Austin Butler's Liam Hemsworth, lol.

[@Gannu_Maharaj]

😂😂😂

[@Geronimo_Jehoshaphat]

@juniortarantino9099 You win. Yep, Jess Buckley.

[@Ellie_Lms]

not everybody can say "im Noa" cause we can recognize Owen by his eyes quite easily

[@KtotheL]

i have been fascinated with this series my whole life. i have every single movie and even watched the tv series really lookin forward to this !

[@bellaventimiglia35]

Me too! 🙌🏾

[@KtotheL]

@@bellaventimiglia35 im hopin for the BEST because just 2 movies back ( in the modern age ) it was sh*t but after seeing the enthusiasm from this actor my hope is restored :)

[@Smoothy4doctor26]

You would’ve thought this was Kimmell’s first time with a guest star, not Teague’s first time as a guest star. 🙄 that’s what it felt like.

[@domoniquer.4342]

Yeah, I've seen podcasters do a better job interviewing Teague about this movie. This poor man was carrying his own interview!

[@billiethefrenchie]

This guy was great as the younger version of Ben Mendelsohn’s character in Bloodline. The first season was amazing!

[@LuciesCafe]

Omg his first talk show! Congrats Owen, bet he was so nervous aww

[@allenedward4364]

dude has been a PHENOMENAL actor for years now, im hoping he goes into bigger pictures after this

[@benbergin538]

Patrick Hockstetter from IT

[@breefonseca7906]

So glad he’s getting the recognition he deserves, such a great actor !!

[@definesilla]

He was in my high school acting class NO WAY I just saw the movie today and had NO IDEA it was him until I ended up googling the film by chance I'm SHOOK

[@rocioromero4189]

He is nice?

[@notnikhilk]

we went to elementary school together, so happy for him!

[@jennahoran]

I went to high school with him!!

[@katsukibakugou5035]

@@jennahoran stop, you guys are so lucky. I would have loved to meet him even before his fame, he seems like such a nice person and someone I would really like to hang out with.

We love owen teague

[@neolithic3]

He was good in Mrs. Fletcher

[@pinocchioflesh]

The main reason I watched that show 😆

[@ajnunez8788]

Whats she about ?

[@PactolusC]

Owen was amazing in "I See You" 2019 really underrated thriller movie

[@Nlm4794]

He said HOLA to Guillermo, 😂 what a great guy.

[@pedenpieee]

He is a great actor. I’m sure he will be known not just Patrick Hockstetter after this.

[@bellaventimiglia35]

I liked him in “Everyday.” 😍

[@miahh9099]

Omg same!! 🥰 so happy he is getting the recognition he deserves!

[@Tobin_Dax]

Liked this guy a lot in Bloodline. Plus his small but memorable role in It Chapters One and Two. Glad he’s getting a big role, even if it is mocap.

[@soph3430]

loved him since he played patrick hockstetter !!! so happy to see him happy

[@dylaaan420]

[@CenterForGreatApes]

Thank you Owen Teague and thank you Jimmy Kimmel for sharing about Center for Great Apes. We appreciate it!

[@JM-vj7we]

Great interview. ❤

[@thisisbrad]

Owen is a great actor and I look foward to continued performing from him, especially in TPotA saga. He was great in the Netflix series Bloodline.

He is adorable and i will be there in May! I am a boomer and grew up with planet of the apes and Godzilla! Still a huge fan! Thank you for being so sincere!

[@OdalisPena-j4z]

Owen is the only reason I'm going to see this movie!! So proud of him! Still remember him in 7th grade and how he pursued his dream!

[@Linnieeewantstosl33p]

I love Owen and his work so much, i'm glad that he is finally getting the recognition he has always deserved. I always love his characters in every movie or show he is in

[@SpiderHacksaw]

Followed Owen Teague for awhile now, since Bloodline, and glad to see him coming along as an actor. He seems to be a good hearted, humble and affable guy. He passed the Guillermo test. Meaning they know who Guillermo is and make note of him. Which is always a good sign. And he remembered Guillermo even when this was Owen's very first talk show. So, that says a lot.

[@pondegg]

MY MAN FINALLY GETTING THE WELL OVERDUE RECOGNITION HE DESERVES !!!!!!!!!

[@acerone10]

Loved that scene. Perfection.

[@LucyVela-s3i]

I love him so much ❤️

[@domoniquer.4342]

The last thing I saw this guy in is 2020's The Stand and Mrs. Fletcher.

[@DarkAngel-ow1ck]

He was my favorite thing about the 2020 The Stand for sure ❤

Now that you mentioned it, yes, I definitely do.

[@helenroach4634]

Amazing performance -- I thought he did the franchise and this particular film proud. He should be very, very proud x

[@Sarahstuff]

my man my man!!!

[@infamousElle]

I've worked with all kinds of different animals throughout my life - and they are all more intelligent and more capable than we can imagine. All these life forms deserve such respect; especially since they have to deal with all our arrogance.

[@shifty1558]

He played in the movie “I See You” Great movie, great actor

[@kra90210]

BEEN ROOTING FOR HIM SINCE 2017 IM SO UP

[@marcaddow7326]

This new promising kid on the block, looks like a mix of Garret Hedlund and Willem Dafoe

[@withershin]

This guy is a natural eh? Kimmel is the salty dog. Owen is probably going to have a good career. Love the nervous energy. (yeah they probably rehearsed this but Owen does a great job here)

[@johnwright2911]

They don't rehearse.

[@livewiiiiire]

He immediately went with the Trump joke, he did really well. He's so charismatic and so neurotic at the same time ha
