He would have been a better Dumbledore than Gambon was

A lot of people think everyone should like HP and want to star in it but that's not the case. If Stewart would have been in HP he might have felt like Maggie Smith, who " was especially underwhelmed by her participation ".

In my opinion Michael Gambon was badly miscast as Dumbledore. He was far too aggressive and didn't possess that grandfatherly feel that Dumbledore is meant to exude. I believe that either Patrick or Ian would have made a better job of it.

@@animalfriend6413 I think Harry Potter was a disaster and too many good actors were wasted in the series, if it had been made properly and all the characters had had their fair share of screen time and development, it could have been great, but for the embarrassment that is called the HP movie series, it's better he weren't in it.

@@Nintendonicke Ian's Gandalf easily qualifies him as, I think, the best Dumbledore option around. I like Michael Gambon in a few films, and I did enjoy his Dumbledore as something quite different to the books, but he essentially refused to read the book or even further into the script and solely focused on how he wanted to portray his performance, which is why it is the way it is. Certainly his performance was good, objectively, but it didn't fit the role he was cast in. Richard Harris was a very good fit for the role and the first movie shows a Dumbledore closer to the books. But unfortunately projects based on literature often end up outside of the setting due to directorial influence, executive pressure (hello Hobbit being split into three movies), or simply the constraints of the movie format (time, production costs, etc) I'm not a huge fan of the HP series, I believe the only reason it was so successful was relative uniqueness at the time (the setting is now much too overused), so I enjoy the movies for what they are, an abridged version of the novels. This is why even though I have a great desire for the wheel of time, Brandon Sanderson's varying series, or the farseer series to be visualized in such a way, I'd rather it not happen then be given the game of thrones treatment.

Actually, McKellen being Gandalf rules him out of the role. That two re just too big character's for one person. Richard Harris was perfect, but I couldn't see the power in him that requires him to do such things like his duel with Voldemort in the Ministry (5th part). But actually, since McKellen and Albus shares the sexuality and kindness, he could've nailed this role easily. Stewart, well, I never thought about him as a possibility for Albus D. Could've worked. . However a couple of days ago I found one another great actor, who could've play Albus Dumbledore, the grandfather-like, kind, loving, blue eyed wizard. Sadly, he is passed as well: Peter O'Toole.

Exactly what I thought too!

Well gotta think 20 years is an extremely long time.

That gives me hope. I haven't chosen the best of friends in the past. Maybe I'm just waiting for someone who's the Ian McKellen to my Beef Stew.

@@minkstinkus1905 Say you're too young to be online unsupervised without saying you're too young to be online unsupervised. There is nothing extreme about the length of time that is 20 years. Unless if you're talking about doing a handstand, then 20 years is extremely long.

I am in my 20s and I will admit that Patrick Stewart will likely be much cooler than I ever will.

Guys in their 20's mostly are not cool but pretend to be

He’s actually only 79 years young

He is in the 70s

This is the best description of his voice

He does an Audible version of A Christmas Carol. If that doesn’t bring the Christmas spirit to you, NOTHING WILL.

I hope he lives exactly as long as he can stay healthy. I've seen people waste away and I don't wish that on anyone. If he's still going strong in 40 years, then great, but if he's confined to a bed that he can't get out of, in constant pain, and just not living so much as _surviving,_ then I'd rather he just die so as to not be suffering.

I think it perfectly illustrates how bs those awards are and proof that they aren't about acting skill but about politics and whose hand you grease.

But he is knighted

@@gupiwa What should he have won for and over who? Considering the actors with the most Oscars and Emmy's are people like Bryan Cranston, Al Pacino, Daniel Day Lewis, Jack Nicholson, James Gandolfini, Meryl Streep, Robert De Niro etc..

@@DykeZuki yup I know it was due to the prediction I rushed

In this clip he makes it sound as if he met Ian for the first time for the X-Men project . That can't be right, can it? Didn't they know each other for decades before that?

@@granville7 it feels like that doesn't it? Though I don't remember him and Ian before X-Men

I remember watching William Shatner's film, "The Captains". It 'was' free on KZfaq. During his interviews with Stewart, he seemed sort of depressed and lonely. He wasn't married at the time and had divorced twice already, if I recall correctly. Here he seemed almost jovial here. Actually warmed my heart to see him with that happy glow. All he's ever tried to do is entertain others.

Emma Lucente 🤣 they need to remedy this, and add him to the Fantastic Beasts series!!

@@Thatsmegigi great idea but it's not harry potter. it's in the same (obviously) world tho

not as touchy as bringing up the accursed EU way to ruin the mood

I'm pretty sure for him it's not a matter of nationality but rather the quality of the material. As a reader you'll know there's been plenty of good material out before HP which never got considered filming. You'll eventually experience it yourself when a new story comes along being hijacked by the movie industry & you dont give 2p about it.

Steppenwolf tellin it exactly like I felt when that passable but ultimately insipid series blew up. I'm like where's the attention given to the Lloyd Alexanders of the world? The Piers Anthonys? The.... I dunno, something without goofy babyish magic words and wands.

I, a nobody, endorse this wholeheartedly.

jauxro he’s not a celebrity, he’s an actor.

The mark of true friendship, lol

@@kramermariav I was just about to say that xD

They still have a couple Fantastic Beasts movies to go. He'd make a good Hogwarts professor or the Minister of Magic. Frankly I watch him as a house elf.

"That's what's made us famous, that we weren't in Harry Potter." Yep, ok, that tracks.

He would have made a great Dumbledore... But of course, they couldn't do that, because then it would just feel like Gandolf in Harry Potter...

First time I heard his voice as well. Then I became obsessed with Star Trek.

I was so exited that he voice acted in Oblivion, then instantly sadden when in the first mission Uriel Septim VII dies

That was my first experience with him too, then I got into Star Trek.

Plastic surgery, fillers, botox etc are really advanced these days. Most celebs use them.

@@Synna89 Really dude? It's not like he looks 40. It's entirely possible and I'd say likely that he's just a healthy guy.

@@devindalton4688, could be. But even on TNG he looked younger, so I think he'd already done something back then. He doesn't look 45-50 in TNG.

@@Synna89 I don't agree with you at all. I think he looks his age during that show.

@@devindalton4688, I think that's just because he's bald. If you look at his skin alone, and imagine him with hair, he does not look his age. Especially not towards the last seasons where he's 50. I don't know anyone at age 50 with skin that smooth.

X men was released 20 years ago now! 😭

@@kevindewes9637 has it been that long?!

The thing that confuses me, is that he says Ian tried to tell Patrick not to go on star trek, which was over 10 years before X men.

@@Milkdromida I suspect they had crossed paths many times while doing stage but didnt become friends till X-men.

They’ve met each other many times, they were in theatre productions together over 40 years ago, they just didn’t become close friends until X-men.

He better. His wife is only 41 years old.

I wish he could be a cameo in the new dune

It's amazing how well some people age. William Shatner is 89 and still sharp as ever. Carroll Shelby was 90 or so when he died and he was still building hot rods. Bernie Sanders is in his 80s and still remembers his name. Clint Eastwood is old as dirt and doesn't appear TOO off.

@Mog and Cobweb Not really I was just implying that he looks like he's in his triple digits and somehow hasn't COMPLETELY cracked yet.

I thought for sure he'd be ninety+, but I also thought he was older in his TNG days..

I was surprised to learn that they didn't know each other before Xmen.

Goodest..

That was definitely a shoutout to his bestie Ian who was asked to play Dumbledore, and turned it down ;)

@Jomu the Owl To be fair, he probably wanted to avoid being typecast as another wizard.

ajoajoajoaj That’s not it. Richard Harris for whatever reason didn’t like Ian McKellan and has said that he doesn’t think he’s a good actor. For obvious reasons, this made McKellan unwilling to accept the role of Dumbledore after Harris died.

He said "my wife and me," which is the correct way to say it. "My wife and I" is both incorrect and pretentious sounding

@@fangiscool1 "my wife and I" is correct at the beginning of the sentence. "My wife and me" is correct at the end of the sentence. E.g. My wife and I went to the cinema. Robert went to the cinema with my wife and me.

What is funny was that when working with Lalla Ward on a Shakespearean play in England, and she got the part of Romana in Doctor Who he asked her why she would waste her time doing a science fiction show on telly, when she was working in legitimate theatre. An irony that was not lost on her years later.

Yeah, but he was in another beloved franchise: Dune! Oh. ...oh, no.

I would love to see him as a character in Doctor who! It would need to be their best story ever made through, because he can’t have a bad story.

See he gets it

or he was never acting ;)

Why does this make sense?

Because he sort of is? His original dialect is Yorkshire which is a very broad accent so to rid it completely is very difficult and skillful

It's the resonator the RSC has implanted in all its actors' voice boxes. Even Judi Dench has one.

The first X-Men movie came out in 2000, two decades ago, so...

I thought I'd heard this, but someone somewhere said 'no, they've known each other since the 60s' Lies, obviously. It just looks as if they have, they're just soulmates

I remember an interview with Patrick Stewart at the time of the first X-Men in 2000 where he he mentioned that he had known Ian McKellan decades earlier, albeit not well, during their early acting careers. Strange how he seems to ignore that now.

Ashworth6 that’s what i was thinking. if i remember correctly, they were in a theatre show together before X-Men...

@@Ashworth6 I'm assuming that they didn't really have any time to get to know each other until X-Men, though. The way he describes them drinking tea in neighboring trailers, when a film shoot can take months and months, I'm sure that was the real bonding time.

Picard: the most British Frenchman ever

I agree it was a cool movie.

He was also in Lifeforce

When TNG started, I thought, "Oh, they got the Excalibur guy." Love that movie with many great actors in early roles. Liam Neeson anyone?

If they'd added Ian McKellan to Logan, that movie could have been three hours of him, Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman and Dafne Keen on a road trip singing songs and reciting Shakespeare and not only would it have been worth the price of admission it would still be in theaters.

Fostering is great - my family fosters cats and kittens. And possibly soon dogs. Love it! The kids learn a lot about responsibility, and we save the lives of these animals.

His dog in the new Picard show is a pitbull. Super cute!

Aw I'm not even a big fan of any of the shows or movies he's in but this along with all the stories I've heard about him being a genuinely sweet person are making my heart melt.

I suscribed to Amazon video so I could watch Piccard. He is such a treasure

There are terrible reasons why breeds like pitbulls end up in kill shelters because dog and cat breeds were bred for looks according to human standards(which is unnatural). So they end up having various health problems like hip problems, unable to breathe properly leading to high blood pressure problems like heart disease or like hypothyroidism...And the owners who were only in for the looks paid these breeders but when the pets start to get sick...those bastards left these poor animals at those kill shelters. Pitbulls are 1 of the most common 'breed' that end up in kill shelters as it's very popular for their looks.

Without question - what a travesty he doesn't have an Academy Award or Golden Globe.

ABSOLUTELY 🙋🏾‍♀️
