I love hearing him speak English. 😍

[@Ariete-c3p]

Amore ma parla italiano

[@Ariete-c3p]

Amore mio bello parla italiano. Sei stupendo

[@DelmiraVesna]

He is hypnotizing! His eyes! His voice! So thankful to John Wick 2! I have been on a Riccardo-trip for the past few months, trying to find and watch his every movie 😻

[@lavinia_makara27]

Susanna Vesna OMG 😆 me too!! I saw him for the first time on JW2 and now I have watched a few of his movies in Italian... read the subtitles😄

[@audreykc7562]

Watch Burnt! Hes got a small part but hes hot in that too

[@jianfalco2133]

He's my inspiration for a significant side character in my novel 😅🔥❤️

[@aselyashamuratova6668]

Me too 😍

[@ladytheaemuhinomura]

His eyes and his voice;oh my !!!!

[@MrsT00]

I could listen to him talk all day long.

[@eymisan1]

i sooo love riccardo and his lovely lovely voice!

[@blu4get]

I get the impression that his English has gotten a lot better since the last interview with him that I watched, which was probably from like 2016. I’m impressed because I’m hot trash at learning languages!

[@christigibson6652]

Awesome actor! His skill as an actor draws in the audience & I believe he could play any type of character, protagonist and/or antagonist in any setting & time period.. Very talented.

[@aaaayyyyyy]

His beautiful eyes 💜

[@suntsu1309]

he's the italian version of javier bardem

[@ilgn7431]

I was justtt thinking this

[@nadienadie6246]

Benicio del toro with al Pacino

[@lindalaserna602]

I didn't know he was able to speak a really good English, I'm so in love. ♥

[@theremotemedium]

Soulful eyes.

[@bag3lmonst3r72]

Check out his accent around 2:08. He actually sounds British for a few seconds there.

[@juliehernandez80]

He is so handsome!

[@marvinsebastian914]

My favorite italian actor most..

[@yanitsaberemova]

Riccardo is MAGIC! I❤YOU, RICCARDO!

[@shannonsollman3509]

He's extremely perplexing to me. He sparks much curiosity to my thoughts and mind.

[@lavinia_makara27]

Riccardo Scamarcio 💛

[@nadienadie6246]

Benicio del toro with a touch of Al Pacino, gosh he’s so gorgeous ♥️

[@evelynperdomo4590]

Te amo tanto mi santino D Antonio 😍🥰♥️

[@SnakeS73]

I just saw it he’s movie amazing

[@hindelayboudi6278]

J'apprecie bien vos travaux

[@blu4get]

Oh fuck it really started going off the rails at about 11:30. Also I kind of flinched when he threw the match in the plant’s pot! I was waiting for something to catch on fire! But seducing the plant at 13:15 was really funny. I mean I kind of get where he’s trying to go with the whole concern about policing people’s private interactions, especially considering the cultural baggage that comes with that (re: fascism), and I also think that a different cultural background means slightly different sensibilities. On top of that, expressing more delicate nuances is a lot harder in a second language. Still I kind of wish I hadn’t had to listen to him pontificate about the supposed evil of #MeToo because it’s a lot more pleasant to just admire him without being reminded of my angry conservative uncles from Georgia.

[@YevOnegin]

Maybe your angry uncles are also great seducers and feel villainized. It is difficult to be a romantic, grow up on Byron and Pushkin, and then be told that inviting a colleague for a drink is a form of evil. We simply don't care about it here, but then we do not have Hollywood. I say, leave American problems in America.

[@blu4get]

Eugene Onegin re:uncles, I know them well enough to say with complete certainty that they are not, and never were. Also, didn’t I say that I understood where he was coming from? I do think it’s important for people to be conscious of the unspoken ways that power, both significant and minor, can create situations where consent is not necessarily a given. But I also think that an unproductive kind of hypersensitivity has developed in the wake of Me Too. I also believe that the online nature of the movement leads to an erasure of nuance, particularly on platforms like twitter where the goal is not to be the best voice but the loudest. As for American problems, I’m fairly certain sexual harassment happens in countries that are not America as well. I certainly don’t think that American social movements can or should be ported over, unchanged, into other cultures. Different places, different norms, different understandings, different problems. However, I don’t think it’s controversial to say that in general, all societies would be better off with more functional and equitable workplaces. How to achieve that? Which interventions are appropriate and necessary? Well, that’s a whole dissertation in and of itself.

[@YevOnegin]

@@blu4get I understand. The reason so many Italians in particular respond defensively, the change in tone and posture when asked, is that we have already been through this here. Sexual choices in the 60s and 70s, predatory producers (and others) in the 90s. Just as France went through the racial taboos in the 70s. Its very old news here. It tends to become a rant, as in this interview, for this reason. I do not mean this disrespectfully, because it is true what you say, but when we are presented with American (or Canadian, British) speakers, particularly those whose entire career is based on activism, it is presented as a lecture. Exporting something they discovered yesterday to the rest of us as if we did not know of it. So people tend to rant as a sign of "we know, we're long past the 'awareness' phase". I was joking about the uncles, you painted a beautifully amusing picture, unwashed vests and all.

[@troypage5994]

It did become sexist and ridiculous after that point. He's also anti- feminist.

[@jjrose14]

Yeah, I was really enjoying the interview up until that point, especially when the question asked was a general question about diversity, so I have no idea why he went in THAT direction. Also he made it seem like the Me Too movement is just snooping into people’s private romantic lives, when it’s actually women being ABUSED. I just saw John Wick 2 for the first time and am now going through his interviews, but this left a really bad taste in my mouth…

[@fannyrichter485]

I am in love haha....wow

[@ingadexter6667]

Ricardo u have an incredible talent just like me, i would like to act in yr movie✈

[@zensvlognotapro]

hes cute..i like him when he said even this plant i seduce 😃🙏😄❣️. I like his eyes and the way his hands are moving 🤗

[@ingadexter6667]

💯 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@dsarcagil]

I kind of get what he's trying to say but the wording of it was bad

[@sharafali5576]

The woman sounds like she doesn't like what she is hearing. 😑 but i like what he said.

[@hannahangelina.]

She was triggered. 🤣 I like what he said too.

[@livicco9406]

Would love to hear a female italian voice on the MeToo movement. Curious to see if it would also end in comparing a feminist movement with Mussolini. I have my doubts though.

[@malvagik8953]

Good looking but too full of himself . There are way better and looking actors lot more humble and friendly . He think to be God.. sad

[@gavinburns9516]

Is it just me that finds this guy creepy looking, maybe because I watched that movie welcome home

[@hannahangelina.]

🤣 He has stunning eyes!

[@katia.sartori]

No, it’s not just you. I don’t know why the majority thinks he’s attractive and talented.
