Unpopular opinion, the role of the evil queen in Disney’s Snow White (live actor version) should’ve been given to her rather than Gal Gadot. Simply put, she can act, she can do the evil laugh, and she has the iconic eyebrows of the queen.

[@addsfour3499]

And she can sing!

[@markuss4133]

All things that Gal Gadot can't do

[@julierogers1155]

I am with you on this.

[@roadrollerdio565]

She also has the physique of a queen with her height and shoulders! Super regal!

[@Ernie1978]

Hannah is a true phenomenon! So bloody talented, gorgeous, personable, and grateful for her success. Self-deprecating in the possible way!

[@alixptn]

This woman is absolutely gorgeous. She has a glow that transcends the screen.

[@zoni3gurl641]

OMG... anyone who is "pals" with Hannah is a very lucky soul. She seems like the best person to hang with.

[@mackenzie98]

My thoughts exactly lol.

[@QuirkyJewels]

"Dude, if you're not gonna step up, step off!" So true! Hannah is a pure delight who deserves the very best in life!

[@aboutspecific1295]

She killed it on Eurovision

[@peefuzz351]

Didn't she. I loved her before Eurovision and love her that bit more now.

[@soulworkwithjustine]

She was a contestant on the show?

[@peefuzz351]

No, she co-presented this year as the UK were hosting. She was fab.

[@Gunna5067]

Best Eurovision host ever!

[@user-ky6vw5up9m]

After Sweden’s Petra Mede @@Gunna5067

[@TonyBurgess1969]

She's like Emma Thompson 2.0

[@EricaGamet]

I would love to see a project with the two of them!

[@jontymo]

No she’s not Emma T is full off crap who jumps on the band wagon then jets off to the other world

[@senguptasayn]

Wow.Absolutely correct observation.

[@zzzzzzzzzzzk]

I was imagining if Ted Lasso was made in the 90's/00's, I'd imagine Emma Thompson playing her.

[@senguptasayn]

@@Wendy11.11 Patsy was one of a kind.outright unique.

[@karenwalsh8115]

She’s brilliant , entertaining and so eloquent !

[@debb5708]

That whole lion power move in the mirror will always be among my favorite of her moments in Ted Lasso. What a great through line for the character.

[@richardmassei9488]

Her presence is so powerful you cannot take your eyes off of her! she’s an absolute delight! Immediately fell for her! Love this woman!

[@bbeela3257]

I met Hannah 4 years ago on a xmas party here in London. I didn't know who she was and asked her ' are you an actress too'? She gracefuly replied. My friend told me later that she was on games of thrones and how successful she was. Hannah wasn't offended at all, she laughed about it and we partied all night. What a wonderful woman she is❤

[@terrygracy8345]

Did you get to see Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz do their puppet show ?

[@bbeela3257]

@terrygracy8345 nope, this was an after-party event for a boring musical called White Christmas

[@danypoe8268]

good to you. she is my fav actress

[@jeanneragonese709]

I've been lucky enough to see her multiple times onstage in London. So glad to see someone so talented get the widespread recognition she deserves!

[@sanyamk7]

She is just phenomenal in everything she does! Love love love her!

[@susanwerner2453]

I love her so much!!! shes so talented! So beautiful! I cannot get enough of this woman!!! I'm praying there's a Ted Lasso sequel and we get to see her have a romance with the handsome houseboat guy❤❤❤❤

[@hunterjr666]

That Shame segment from Game of Thrones made me happy.

[@eneobande7433]

Same 😅

[@lindamarchionyfrancis4437]

What an amazing person!!! Stunningly beautiful, talented, personable and funny ❤

[@pymber]

I first saw Hannah in a British tv series called "Benidorm". She was certainly an attention getter. Talent, Intelligence, wit, beauty and what a bod.

[@barbiecrocker7420]

SAME

[@raythomas4812]

Yeah, you sometimes forget she was in that

[@mariananev-xk8tw]

I also saw her there first and was obsessed immediately. Looks, presence, acting...all of it. Did not recognise her in GOT ,but definitely remembered her performance. 😊

[@angelaleslie4607]

She should be the next M in bond series!

[@PJ688]

My mind never on this Earth has been blown in such a way as it was when, through this video, I learned Rebecca from Ted Lasso was the Shame lady in Game of Thrones. I still am in shock just typing this out

[@massenib7549]

I like her energy

[@midorielizabeth5162]

I love her! “If you’re not gonna step up. Sept off.” Amen.

[@michaelcain9324]

The ladies haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

[@javiruiz8365]

What a great interview

[@IrishLegend64]

i’ve never heard of her before but she’s AMAZING!!!

[@lexaneli]

Game of Thrones?

[@vincentbaca790]

She is frigging.ADORABLE!!!

[@pr-tj5by]

@@lexaneli She was the Shame Woman of The High Sparrow.

That clip made me cry ALL OVER AGAIN. Love her love her love her

[@mariaes623]

Hannah Waddingham is a goddess! I've never seen Ted Lasso but I saw her for the first time hosting this year's Eurovision Song Contest.

[@hayleyjohnson2627]

She is so captivating! I knew in Ted Lasso, the minute she smiled the first time that her character was going to end up being so loveable, and her acting would be incredible!

[@SeanRoberts-fn9ih]

She is just breathtaking!

[@ariannal.7936]

I hope to someday be 1/10th as cool as she is.

[@nadze13]

She is da BOMB!

[@Blackpinkumdaleohwangie]

She is SO regal. 😊❤

[@tsre5025]

She’s amazing in the British show called Benidorm

[@realworkoutsforrealpeople5041]

That scene in the TL finale tore me up. There's so much they don't say to each other and yet it's so obvious that they feel deeply for each other. Ugh, I didn't want Ted and Rebecca to end up together until that very last moment. What great writing!

[@patriciacustodio4438]

Hannah is awesome human!!! All of her!!! ❤❤❤

[@SamSam-yb3ls]

I think Sunny was starstruck - why wouldn't she be? Hannah is funny, witty, goofy, talented and flippin' gorgeous. Also, there are no flips to give, which is a wonderful quality. Richmond till we die!

[@vincentbaca790]

What a vivacious personality!!!

[@megger11]

I love this woman. LOVE THIS WOMAN.

[@joefinn8638]

It’s a shame they barely mentioned Eurovision. She was probably the best host it’s ever had.

[@eurouc]

It was the best Eurovision ever. The technical presentation, the performers and most of all Hannah set the standard for years to come.

[@ViFabulous]

Absolutely LOVED Ted Lasso!!! The Christmas episode is still my favorite.

[@gerardmanfroid1860]

She's lovely...she was great in Ted Lasso and I hope to see her again ! Lovely woman and lovely actress...

[@CWazBroadwayBandGeek]

If they were to ever reboot the Parent Trap, I could EASILY see Hannah doing Elizabeth James in honor of Natasha Richardson. They both have the same poise, personality and kindness. Talented, funny, humble, gorgeous and ridiculously smart. That’s Hannah. 🥰

[@aliciarodriguez6310]

What? I'm guessing you mean the Maureen O'Hara character? I've never seen the remake so I can just assume

[@CWazBroadwayBandGeek]

@@aliciarodriguez6310 No.

[@aliciarodriguez6310]

@@CWazBroadwayBandGeek The answer is yes, I looked it up after I posted. The mother character right? That was originally Maureen O'Hara

[@pr-tj5by]

@@aliciarodriguez6310 The answer is no, they didn't say the original, they were talking of the Dennis Quaid Lindsay Lohan version obviously

[@craigchamberlain]

Wow! An unbelievably talented actress who can bring together couples where one wants to BE her and the other wants to BE WITH her! Neither my wife nor I have any time for soccer/football, but we both love to watch Ted Lasso whenever we have some TV time together. I'd love to know how hard Hannah has to work to become Rebecca. My guess is that they are not that dissimilar.

Rebecca is a character you would hopefully want your young daughter to look up to. Strong, independent, honest successful and beautiful.

[@anthonyrichards3083]

Am sorry to say this but it always seems like Sunny can't turn your face on the side where Alisa is. I am sure that the viewers will think that they don't get alone.

[@mariahcarrie5770]

OMG! I was just about to write about that! I think Sunny is so wrong for treating her like this, but the fact is....they don't get along! Sunny needs to show more professionalism. JS

[@Monika-mh2je]

Also she was doing so much fake laughing...

Cool video
