Paul Giamatti Has A Weird Vacation Hobby

'Lodge 49' producer Paul Giamatti's favorite thing to do in London is slightly more morbid than a selfie with Big Ben.

Paul Giamatti just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

[@lorrainechandler7864]

Me too.Sweet man.

[@larschristensen2434]

His force is that he can express any emotion with his eyes. My favorite male actor.

[@ndirjura]

- Parli italiano? -Yeah... Sure.

[@mannie0280]

Mr. Giamatti is always an interesting and entertaining guest when interviewed by Colbert. Whenever I hear he's involved in a project I am always attracted towards it because of the body of work he has performed and is now producing. Yes, he's had some misfires but even in those, there's something about the way he performs. I could watch an interview as entertaining as this for hours. You know Colbert and his staff must really enjoy having him on.

[@actownsend7288]

Ohh I’ve picked up on that especially since the 2nd appearance when Paul & Stephen bonded over sci-fi novels. Two funny nerds who love life and that makes this 35 year old nerd very happy. My wife thankfully says I’m not a nerd. ☺️☺️☺️

[@ARWG]

Seems like a genuinely good guy.

[@RubixB0y]

BDE

[@NewMessage]

These two need to do a bimonthly sci-fi and fantasy podcast...

[@DivineFrag]

Extremely excited for Billions season 4. Love Paul Giamatti.

[@anthonylesley982]

I know I never even knew I wanted a chuck and Axe team up until the end of season 3

[@jtvj8423]

This guy is a national treasure.

[@pamelaturner7927]

JT VJ And that statement makes you a bona fide WITLESS twit.

[@wf6951]

Why do you have to be mean to strangers, type something positive and proavtive to to better others around you.

[@nadiamccall4311]

because he is quite simply wrong. It takes more than an entertainer and decent personality to be a damn national treasure -- I hate when people overplay something.

[@wf6951]

Doesn't matter what you "hate" that's meaningless, what matters is you respect (to a point) what others think. Anyways, i'm done with crazy Utube for today have a nice month folks. Stop being mean.

[@nolancho]

Hes also ICONIC! 😂😂🤣 For real ppl are just too much. Oh, and a LEGEND!

[@radinsyah1574]

Paul in Lady In The Water was utterly superb. That moment near the end was nothing but surreal excellence. What I’d really like to see him do now is a mob boss.

[@Shiny7054]

RADIN SYAH He kinda played one in Shoot Em Up, which was a really fun bit of nonsense

[@Em4gdn1m]

HAHAHA I love Paul Giamatti so much.

[@yahzeeskellington7034]

...the world needs more Paul Giamatti

[@geoffreyfeinberg9792]

He's a good actor. I like his comedic roles in Big Momma's house, Big Fat Liar, Sideways and Fred Claus. He was also good in Cinderella Man, Lady in the water, Saving Mr. Banks, Straight Outta Compton. He was great in John Adams.

[@landofmarkland]

This dude is super cool GREAT energy and fun

[@sumobabe]

Paul Giamatti, William H. Macy, Philip Seymour Hoffman! Thats all we need.

[@sumanthprabhu4421]

I've never seen Colbert enjoy an interview as much as this.

[@HelgaCavoli]

He seemed all good with Denzel the other day. Also with comedians he knows.

[@iane427]

What about the Biden interview?

[@theboredengineer2612]

If I can ever be as laid-back and confident as Paul Giamatti seems to be I'll die a happy man. Also, going to murder trials at the Old Bailey actually sounds kind of cool to me... nobody else?

[@FreedomofSpeech865]

TheBoredPhysicst definitely cool. I was in London in March, I was a bit bored. Murder trials would have made the trip worthwhile

[@blackbird5634]

"I've got the ankles of an old woman." -Saving Private Ryan

[@gwddmt1]

If you;ve never seen the BDE Paul Giamatti in my three favorites: As Chief Inspector Uhl in The Illusionist... Ralph, P.L.Travers' chauffeur in Saving Mr. Banks and John Adams in HBO's miniseries John Adams... Hey there, you gotta watch them... he is outstanding!

[@WhatisASMR]

Especially his performance as CI Uhl, that was unbelievable. Just his voice even, so different than his other roles.

[@imtiol]

gw wile LOVED him in The Illusionist.

[@AmandaGabr1elle]

This is SO exciting! He’s so cute & giggly. As another Italian who doesn’t seem Italian, I approve & I can’t wait to see Paul in the Jungle Cruise! xxxx

[@lorrainechandler7864]

Amanda Sorrento I love his giggly laugh.I love pronouncing Italian last names-all those vowels roll trippingly off of the tongue.Paul has Italian,English ,Irish,German,Dutch Scottish ancestory.Looking forward to Jungle Cruise.Just finished watching Barney"s Version.

[@starwarsfan7083]

He's a really great actor and a likeable man in real life. He is known for playing a character we love to hate when we were kids: Marty Wolf from Big Fat Liar.

[@machine60]

Paul’s Dad would be very proud.

[@sprybug]

Oh Paul. I love seeing stuff they did when they were first coming up. There's a FMV video game from the 90's called "The Ripper" that actually had a good cast with him in it in a small part, and it includes Christopher Walken. It was one of Paul's first gigs. It's unintentionally hilarious. I recommend watching the Gaming Garbage / Retsupurae video of the series where they constantly riff over the cuts scenes. It's golden.

[@cdcruizer05]

He’s one of my new fave actors : billions!

[@xavineira9403]

I’ve always like Mr Giamatti and his last interview was really nice. This one was a pleasure and I love both Paul and Stephen how well they get along. I don’t think it’s wierd at all for going to a trail I thought it was funny and perhaps I’ll do the same why not lol

[@KimsLantern]

Paul is an AWESOME ACTOR!!!! Oh my GOD, I love him!!!!!!!!!

[@Kevin_Street]

Always great to see Paul Giamatti.

[@brotherpabl0]

*"The Rock's not on the list"* MAN DOWN! MAN DOWN!

[@AT-gi1ge]

Paul makes me proud to be a nerd!!!! And one of my favorite actors!!

[@jayjones9225]

Great actor and great interview love their chemistry here

[@kdmdlo]

Paul is a great actor. Also a big, big fan of his dad, A. Bartlett Giamatti.

[@coburn8810]

I love that he slipped into the John Adams voice while impersonation the lawyer.

[@lordkorner]

The tower of London tour with a Beefeater is not to be missed.

[@abdobedo9428]

Paul Giamatti is very funny !

[@fattyninja4320]

Paul was great in Win Win.

[@Bubulinaq]

its a seer pleassure to just watch this guy

[@Patrick-jj5nh]

haha the old bailey thing is hilarious ...wonder when stephen is in London...would be great to run into him

[@bitchoflivingblah]

I had the sound down and I genuinely thought it was Billy Joel being interviewed.

[@aldesalOG]

Glad to see I'm not the only one lol

[@karinjuern3092]

😂 took my glasses off and you’re right; now I see it. 😆

[@bigben0071]

Great guy and a greater actor!

[@tracytaylor5115]

Loved Barney’s Version.

[@ZahidKhan-ix9cv]

♥️🇺🇸 Paul Gamati is true legend & my favorite actor I been watching his movies for longtime and today I heard him speaking British looks like he is British 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@consultmlcesqful]

Your favorite thing to do in London. I can relate.

[@michaelknapp8961]

Ya know I never connected Paul Giamatti and the baseball commissioner Bart Giamatti before. Father and son. Paul is simply one of the best actors out there today. Loved John Adams!!!!

[@EL-lx9iq]

Very unique show. #Longlivelodge49!

[@jess_bein_me_]

😍 Paul Giamatti 😍

[@samuela9245]

this guy is just next level... he is amazing....amazing in billions. his performancr is amazing. it is the biggest mystery of this gen that he hasnt won an emmy for billions. huge fan

[@MisterTingles]

he's quite adorkable. can somebody tell me whether he has a podcast, cuz he seriously needs to start one if he doesn't.

[@gabriellefagan1014]

America's sweetheart!

[@maryjensen5310]

I sit in on murder trials. That sounds like so much fun.

[@smeagollumartin]

Stephen's already addressing the real importance of bde-I don't see Kimmel doing the same...

[@pcbacklash_3261]

Man, Paul Giamatti is a freaking RIOT! :-D He must be fun to hang out with at parties!

[@Christian-qu5ye]

Legend

[@Mr-E.]

Fantastic in Billions

[@steven5341]

Another great actor criminally overlooked at Oscar time.

[@SuperNn19]

He is one of brilliant actor in Hollywood I just want him to do more movie☹️

[@lorrainechandler7864]

Paul's father and paternal grandfather spoke fluent Italian.They taught Italian literature at Yale(his father) and Mt.Holyoke college(grandfather).

[@dimitreze]

lovely guy

[@hilariousbenjamin5614]

Idea for the perfect remake: Giamatti as commissario Montalbano and Colbert as Mimí

[@mcqueen7584]

4:29 *When someone asks me if it's ok to eat pizza with fork and knife*

[@shirleyshine1285]

So Humble despite his RICH background

[@miklranallo6965]

He sat on the floor smoking a cigarette with Julia Roberts in best friends wedding....

[@WhatisASMR]

"This too shall pass..." he was great in that little part.

[@HelgaCavoli]

I don't remember him in the movie.

[@ivanavais5972]

And now he is the estar he deserves to be

[@silverfilmsofficial]

It's the dude from Black Mirror in the clip!

[@mannie0280]

Silver Films Thank you for commenting. I couldn't place the face.

[@__-to3hq]

Growing up this actor has been in almost every movie or tv show i watched i swear

[@josueiglesias9185]

I loved him in Big Fat Liar

[@jsmcguireIII]

I met his esteemed father at Yale many years ago. He was a singular man.

[@lorrainechandler7864]

His father wrote a book of beautiful essays about the sport of baseball which is one of my favorite books.

[@jsmcguireIII]

Bart Giamatti was an esteemed professor at Yale who specialized in English and Italian Renaissance literature. He was appointed president of the university in 1978 and made the Commissioner of baseball in 1989. He died of a heart attack while in that post. I always wondered what he thought when Paul drank the wine spit bucket in Sideways - he probably laughed - I hope. Having big shot fathers is a challenge I am familiar with. Another great academic and baseball fan I was fortunate to meet was Steven Jay Gould who taught at Harvard and stuck with the Bosox through all those grim years - like so many of us.

[@PJBubbles]

Rhoades rules! 👍👏

[@MichaelBerthelsen]

BDE, not as good as an OBE, but close...😂😂😂

[@laurawestenra]

I can't see Giamatti as a mafia gangster but he could certainly play Cosimo de Medici or something.

[@CyberCheese392]

BDE, perfect lol

[@lorrainechandler7864]

Not so strange he enjoys attending trials.He has an avid curiosity.He said in an interview that he enjoys watching people and studying human behavior . Sweet,humble,funny man.I would love for him to have a Podcast where he discusses literature ,movies ,travel.He is an avid reader of all kinds of books-not just science fiction.

[@jackya]

"This Isn't Donald Trump" is my new favorite show!!!!

[@kenek629]

WAIT STEPHEN WENT TO LONDONNNN??? WHEN??? PLS COME BACK!

[@DSAK55]

Paul Giamatti is definitely a Meneghini

[@mannys4539]

I want to know what's inside!

[@TheSeventhZombie]

His podcast is great. I’d listen to Giamatti read a fuckin phone book.

[@endlessfreedomful]

probably the most knowledgeable actor in the world

[@manifestingbeautifullife2187]

adorbs😍

[@stavneustadter562]

When is billion season 4 coming?

[@scienceman217]

Why isn't he blue??

[@McLovin123ify]

so actors get flowers and producers get respect. lol

[@tofelipwithlove1150]

I'm surprised Stephen was not on the list. He exudes BDE always.

[@EH-ww8pi]

I would totally go with him 😜

[@soyborne.bornmadeandundone1342]

After the crazy evil stuff he's said on billions... Hearing him get bleeped feels so wrong lol.

[@__-to3hq]

xD

[@mevirosteck]

Representin tha LBC

[@ChristyKSweet]

He haws a sexiness. Check out Duets

[@darthstarkiller6605]

Paul giamatti sits in on murder trials so when he commits murder he doesn’t get caught

[@bendy1808]

big foot just wanted to get that off my chest thank you speak itlian love it premo

[@paladro]

pug giamatti

[@theangryfinger5795]

I know what it's like... its actually terrible. Every time I wear shorts it's a possible indecent exposure charge. 😫

[@AJR-go1it]

To me he’ll always be the blue guy from Big Fat Liar

[@starwarsfan7083]

Yeah, definitely. Paul did a fantastic job of making us hate the character Marty Wolf with a burning passion. I'm pretty sure he played other villains we love to hate like Karl Hertz from Shoot Em Up.

[@babycakes2077]

So adorable, the both of u. Wish more (white) men were sweet Nd sweet like u two.

[@melissakirkselfhelp]

Big doof energy??

[@TentinQuarantino_]

OMG Paul Giamatti and I have the same weird hobby.

[@TyrSkyFatherOfTheGods]

"You won't have {bleep} Nixon to kick around anymore!"

[@disda1n]

I have BDE but it's because I know I don't have anything to brag about. So people assume I have BDE when it's really just a Napoleon complex disguised as confidence

[@firststepshardest1656]

Cue the conspiracy theorists ..

[@johnredberg]

#metoo #BDE #irony?

[@jjtiojohn12]

For a minute I thought that was Billy Joel

[@pamelaturner7927]

Antonio Johnson Billy is good looking,PG is butt ugly & his body shape is odd& mis shapen.No ass,overhanging gut & his mouth.OMG! TRULY HARD TO LOOK AT.

[@nadiamccall4311]

[@nobodyspecial9738]

Pamela Turner- You find Billy Joel handsome? Go figure, but Joel is married to Christie Brinkley.

[@irishandirie]

Nobody Special Was...

[@lorrainechandler7864]

Paul is the fairy tale Frog Prince.Beautiful ,expressive eyes with a sweet,gentle soul.

[@jothugs]
