Live and Let Die legacy villain. Blofeld has already been done before. He would be the third Bond villain actor from Denmark, after Mads Mikkelsen and Jesper Christensen.

I remember the 1st time I watched "Taps!" He had a minimal but essential role in that movie. After years of him playing low-level characters on TV, I was glad he was cast in major, more influential roles in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Then, after a short layoff, his career began to pick up steam, and here we are. His career parallels David Allen Greer's career. They are the go-to 'black guys' everyone took for granted, yet years later, we have come to respect them as professional artists and human beings.

I love how he referenced a game he did without someone having to ask a game specific role related question. It means that he looks at all the roles he’s done movie or game equally as his proud works. Normally you ask an actor they’ll only really sift through the film roles they’ve done.

I watched the Gentleman over the course of the last week, and I have to say it was one of the best series I have ever experienced. I would rate it up there with Rome, The Wire, or Band of Brothers. The story is in no way diminished by not having Rome's history or Band of Brother's continent spanning tale of heroics. Mr. Esposito is fantastic through and through. I look forward to seeing him in future roles.

Giancarlo, has such a full personality, I have admired his acting ability and the fact that he's a suave geezer most of my life, but with the upturn of the internet and interviews and getting an insight into the man. I can't get enough, bloody good company, interesting, erudite, and a raconteur with something to say about almost anything, gosh! That's attractive, personality-wise and I haven't even come close to mentioning how fine he has been, and continues to be.

Interesting. Since Mr. Esposito would like to play Alexandre Pushkin, I wonder would he also be up for playing Alexandre Dumas ? All these years later and France and the French still can't get over the reality that Dumas was the son of a Afro-Haitian general who served in Napoleon's military and seem to have a difficult time casting an actor of color to portray Dumas, since his works are so highly regarded and well known. Giancarlo would have to chub-up a lot, though, or wear an outfit that added a lot of extra pounds.

Kinda crazy how female and male actors careers work. Most women hit their primes early, late teens to early 30s. Then their careers kinda slow down unless you're lile a Meryl Streep. Men usually hit theirs much later. Look at him and actors like Cranston or the guy that plays Saul. They were in their 40s and 50s. Of course there are always exceptions. There are a lot of male actors that start really young and have long careers. I just thought that was interesting.

When the Darkling staged his coup, he trusted the Apparat with the capital. The priest was meant to lend his authority to the Darkling's cause. Instead he marshaled the people's faith for Alina Starkov." - Genya Safin
