Guy Pearce: I Met The Mother Of My Child On The Set Of ‘Brimstone’ | TODAY

[@Sunshine123x]

He's so good looking aged like a fine wine .

[@TheBadLiutenant]

Look at this Guy, he can literally play anything!

[@JD43232]

I feel like Guy Pearce was an underlooked brad pitt for many years. He has that same thing going for him, where it's always interesting to watch whatever he's in

[@firewaterbydesign]

Guy has MUCH more integrity than Brad, and sadly, this is why he has been overlooked in the American film industry.

[@gardensofthegods]

JD I don't know if you've seen him in an old Australian movie called The Hard Word . It's a great film that I loved him in it . Regrettably I don't know anybody else who has ever seen that movie . I would have loved a sequel to it with the same cast .

[@maskedmovieman4303]

@@firewaterbydesign He’s had a subtle, but established presence in Hollywood, and has played many great roles. Pitt is a movie star, Pearce is a character actor/chameleon. Much more interesting imo

[@senpai1628]

@@maskedmovieman4303 Pitt is a movie star/ character actor. Watch ad astra ,legends of the fall, tree of life if you don’t believe me

[@maskedmovieman4303]

@@senpai1628 Calling Brad Pitt a character actor is disrespectful to actual character actors. Brad Pitt has certainly given some good performances in his career (Thelma and Loiuse, Fight Club, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood) but he has never shown any real acting range. He's the same person in every single film. Iv'e never been a huge fan honestly.

[@pelevizolonewolf5052]

his performance was a thumbs up..it was perfect

[@diegopisfil614]

He looks like Brad Pitt who resembles Leonardo DiCaprio and Benicio del Toro

[@roothik]

He reminds me of Brad Pitt and Matt Damon.

[@jeremysears4263]

This guy is on par with Gary Oldman acting skills wise

[@maskedmovieman4303]

Totally agreed. Crying shame he doesn't get anywhere near as much credit as he deserves.

[@thiscatrighthere]

And versatility

[@gardensofthegods]

@@maskedmovieman4303 Mask Movie Man ... because he really doesn't care about that stuff ... he probably is not paying out a fortune to publicist to keep his name and image out there all the time . He commented in an interview back in 2001 on Australia 60 minutes about how he doesn't really like Hollywood and how people are climbing over each other to get to the top and to get all the attention . He's probably one of the most real people that is in the business nowadays .

[@joycegibbs5267]

one of the best actors, period. Is that Brooke Shields???

[@diansulastri09]

His character in Brimstone "could" make me hate him, good job 👍👏 loved his acting 😇

[@Savannah005]

I will always remember him as Mike from Neighbours, one of my favorite characters.

[@iyulok]

he finally had a baby, happy for him!

[@gardensofthegods]

But can I assume that's not the original wife he had years ago ?

[@Jean_Genie]

@@gardensofthegods ​ that’s right, Kate was his wife of 18 years before she asked for a divorce. Guy met Carice after and that’s who he’s with now and shares Monte with 😊

[@a.stephen9407]

sons name is Monte? be careful he doesn't grow up to become a 'Count' eh Mondego...

[@TMWill-fi5fy]

I only want to hear about Melisandre.

[@scarletibis3158]

he had a smoke baby with melisandre.

[@thedailyshaver1171]

Guy Pearce was in a film called "The Time Machine"

[@fanclub999]

My favourite movie is “Lockout”

[@nickmilligan3662]

I think Priscilla was his breakout role not LA confidential

[@fayrouzorama]

Nick Milligan l.a. was the breakout for American market and put him on the world stage

[@KaitainCPS]

I loved him in “Lockout”. One of my favourite trashy action films.

[@vanesaberbel4497]

Gran película, muy fuerte. Maravillosa actuación.

[@Vixen743]

Dude I’d have a very hard time saying no the guy Pearce 😍. Huge crush dude he’s really good in the Count of Monte Cristo to all of you check it out man it’s good!

[@gardensofthegods]

VIXEN , he was great in that and if you've never seen him in an old Australian film called THE HARD WORD you might want to check it out; it was an excellent film . It would have been wonderful with a sequel with the same cast .

[@jameslecrow1868]

i love jack irish

[@vrinparadise]

I really hate him in Brimstone. Hahaha

[@alexanderarnold4810]

Guy Pierce is brought down on screen when starring with Josh Brolin. I'd rather see him with other actresses.

[@janjoostaukema5096]

What a wise superhero, giving carice a baby at exactly the right time. This guy is GOD! What a Superman! Carice is obviously one of the most lifeloving creatures on earth. And he can relate and love her. What a superhero!

[@sparkly21]

He divorced is wife of 18 years in 2015, and he got his gf pregnant 6 months later. Guy isn’t a god, he’s suffering a mid-life crisis!

[@Jean_Genie]

@@sparkly21 I believe his ex-wife was the one who wanted the divorce and it was a big shock for him.

[@matienazemy1382]

Isn’t he the guy with that condition?

[@firewaterbydesign]

Looking back at Al, you can REALLY see the MK-ULTRA in the way that he acts.

[@sparkly21]

Can I have the contact details of your drug dealer please?

[@rudetc]

Ah Cee actor. :(

[@lee-annebarrett366]

Just forget the wife as though she never was apart of your life for most of your acting years. Went through the hard yards with you...then Divorce and new partner all in 2015 partner. Sure how stupid do you think the public is.

[@maskedmovieman4303]

What's your deal exactly? What makes you think he's just "forgotten his wife as though she wasn't a part of his life"? Just because he didn't mention her in the interview? Why would he lol? He only mentioned his new girlfriend and their baby because she was literally in the movie they're interviewing him about. Guy has already publicly said him and his ex wife are still best friends and will continue to love and support each other forever. Your comment is honestly a sad attempt to pretend to know about someone's personal life off of pure conjecture and non sequiturs.

[@extraecclesiamnullasalus9308]

She left him because she had stopped loving him...so if he forgets her and moves on why is that a bad thing?! He wasn't unfaithful or bored of her so good on him for finding happiness with a woman who does love him and will give him a child not a dead marriage
