Tom Hiddleston & Aaron Paul | Actors on Actors - Full Conversation

bit.ly/VarietySubscribe
Aaron Paul (The Path) & Tom Hiddleston (The Night Manager) sat down to chat for Variety and PBS’ “Actors on Actors” and a bromance was born. The two talked about Paul’s disastrous “Cloverfield” audition, social media and more.

[@Noiseheads]

Aaron saying Loki will go down as one of the most interesting and complex villains pre-Ragnarok, pre-Infinity War, and especially pre-Loki = the best foreshadowing ever.

[@MayLily]

Yeah, it's crazy that this interview happened just right after Captain America: Civil War was released! Ragnarok would be more than a year later.

Aaron and Tom discussing the mystery of the snapchat dog filter together is incredible.

[@mishan3150]

Exactly

[@caitcc89]

This is such a neat idea to pair actors together like this. I like it better than interviewers. It's so interesting to hear the huge different between Tom's accent and Aaron's.

[@caitcc89]

Intriguing to see the vast difference between English and American here. Both are great, but so different.

[@caitcc89]

Cool! I've been curious about both of them! I may have to check them out.

[@destiny2909]

I agree. I'm English, and I'm just currently finishing a re-binge of 'Breaking Bad'. In a show of American actors (mostly), you don't really notice the accent. But when I hear it right against Tom's English accent, which I hear in my day-to-day life, it stands out massively. I guess it's just what you're used to, and the context.

[@britishdramafan2133]

Turns out Tom is a damn good interviewer too! Great questions! Very well done!

[@minnamouse3363]

He is very well spoken. Tom is so creative and intelligent. I just love hearing him do interviews.

[@eclaire_x88x]

Hes incredibly intelligent, this is a good interview they balance each other out. There are so many interview where he has to reign it in because its obvious they just want stock/dumb answers. The one with Hugh Laurie is even better, great pairing.

[@Hoganply]

He takes charge and reveals comparatively little. He seems naturally less open than Aaron, but Aaron is an inredibly raw actor.

[@shivanigulati5448]

Nothing that the man can't do. Nothing!

[@blueblack3591]

Truly

[@taraz6786]

Tom's reaction to Aaron talking about being madly in love with his wife is how we all would react on the outside while secretly dying of envy inside. Seriously though, his constant adoration and respect for her makes me want to rip my heart out slowly.

[@UpTheAnte]

What a great combo.

[@jeremyhenry8675]

What a forehead combo..

[@MsButterflysting]

I couldn't help but look at that either, so high & shiny, then a swirled feathered thing that wants so badly the rest of the flock of seagulls back. I'm sorry. That's all I could think of when the American started speaking.

[@knowledgegizmo7934]

Yeah I would never think of the combo

Tom is a good example of how a gentleman should conduct himself.

[@hibakariem8038]

I'm thoroughly impressed with Tom's interviewing. What a fantastic dude

[@emilyholt1416]

Can we discuss for a moment Tom’s face when Aaron mentions that he is madly in love with his wife. It made my heart shatter

[@krisss79]

Well he had that similar expression during the entire interview. It was not only in that moment.

[@samihaafrinmaisha5868]

[@barrettzbrowning]

Maria Maria you think Tom Hiddleston, who could charm any woman on the planet, could/would want to surrender every man’s dream? Women, more women, and then lots more beautiful women. Uh uh. Hopefully he’ll remain too productive, to busy to be tamed. Also, he doesn’t seem to be the lonely needy type. Stay single, TWH!

[@safiya970]

@@barrettzbrowning He wants a family but I remember one of his sisters (or someone close to him) saying he's one of those people who puts work first and almost can't be bothered to cater time to anything or anyone else, and that he never lasts long in relationships 🤷🏾‍♀️ I think he may have long-term committment issues lol

[@rodriguezelfeliz4623]

How would you know? You only know him from television, movies and interviews

[@Ahiru77]

Tom is SO diligent and generous that when Aaron wanted to send back the first question, Tom keeps going on Aaron. Of course Aaron took no time at all to praise Hugh Dancy specifically on his acting skills. These guys deserve all the acclaim in the world.

[@sweetsocietygirl]

Listening to two grown ass men trying to understand snapchat is so absolutely beautiful. Also, his conversation was so beautiful, honestly these two.

[@samihaafrinmaisha5868]

it is beautiful how they are so mu8ch away from all these we call life

[@thewondergirl2396]

Another great conversation with both Tom and Paul its so much better when they give each other time to respond to the questions. Both guys have amicable personalities.

[@tylerstewart7905]

Both guys are amicable.***

[@hoshenbaruch]

I just love listening to Aaron Paul interviews.. He has such a funny and interesting stories and he is such a nice and talented actor.

[@mikepshena]

this actors on actors thing is so much better than regular interviews. I mean sometimes interviewers are so bad that the actors can't help but give them a hard time, and that's hilarious, so we still need those.

[@austincavitt2003]

I think Tom Hiddleston would be awesome for the role of Rhaegar Targaryan in a flashback on Game of Thrones.

[@sdidora5]

That's old news. I'm really into something completely out of left field and opposite to what has been already created

[@danielsheehan3783]

Both seem really down to earth and not at all about their celebrity status. Refreshing to see two guys talk about their profession without the ego getting in the way.

[@henrychinaski5938]

I can't wait for Aaron to start working into drama films . I think he could be a fantastic character actor for years to come . Oscars on his mantle , that caliber of actor .

[@MissDirectionerIAM]

you should watch him in Fathers and Daughters, it's amaaazing!!!

I love and hate that movie, it is painful( in a good way). but yes, he is really good in it.

Before anything else...can we just appreciate how utterly delicious Tom is? I love how he is taking charge right away and keeps asking Aaron the questions...you can tell Aaron tried to jump in and ask some sooner...which is often telling of a person's personality...some of these actors just want to talk about me me me and will steer the convo back to them or they don't want any spotlight on them....both are so fun to watch here.....I love these guys...both of them....they both have such sexy voices and having been a BB fan and also LOVE Tom's work (especially The Night Manager which is BRILLIANT tv too--if you haven't seen the entire mini-series that was on AMC a few weeks back you can easily find it online and On Demand etc.) the teaming of these two is pretty damn hot :) Both actors are classy guys. I could listen to them chat all day long...oh wait, I have!!! Really enjoying this series!

[@Novalunosis90]

It's getting really annoying seeing all these comments talking about Taylor, taking about how they "don't respect Tom anymore", and whining. Come on y'all, let it go. What the hell does it matter who Tom dates (I'm not a fan of Taylor's, but seriously?) Tom is still an incredibly talented actor who I will always remain a huge fan of.

[@steliosp1770]

Breaking bad is an all time classic masterpiece and both paul and bryan were absolutely incredible in it. i did watch The Path and did like it, still gotta finish the latest season though! The Night Manager was SUCH a great show itself too. It was my first introduction to Tom, and again 2 actors sharing pretty much equally the limelight - just like in breaking bad - with Tom and Hugh. Great idea to pair the two!

[@sylvias4730]

“I’m sure GG has already forgiven u by now”. The way Tom says that to Aron is so comforting.

[@EevaIlves]

i'm now half-way of The Night Manager-book, the series starts next week on TV and I plan to watch the episodes back-to-back once they've all aired. "If you don't have Facebook, you don't exist". I beg to differ, I don't have fb, twitter or whatever is out there, social media takes up too much people's time. Everywhere you go, you see smartphones, iPad's and people's eyes tightly locked to the screens. And then they bump into other people 'cause they don't watch where they're going.

I like Tom's discretion here. He could so easily have taken over and dominated but instead he held back and leveled with Aaron.

[@minato808]

What do you mean "leveled with Aaron"? Breaking Bad is better than anything Hiddleston has done at this point in his career. Working on big expensive projects doesn't make them iconic.

[@savvysearch]

Take over what? The conversation? That would be completely rude and boring.

[@jorgefernandez8728]

Hahaha that's funny breaking bad is top over all hiddleston do in his entire career

[@marvinamor1330]

A little late and probably useless now to reply to any comment here but anyway, what Chris is implying is that Tom is clearly leading the conversation here especially since both actors are expected to just talk about their jobs without any script or any help from anybody which is not an easy thing to do and that is why not any actor can become a talk show host. Plus in such conversations anybody who can lead the conversation just easily make the focus on himself but as Chris stated that Tom leveled himself with Aaron, Tom made sure that the conversation is split equally among them
