Whoever has been in charge of pairing these actors should definitely get a raise cuz all of these pairings so far have been entertaining to watch and I love how each pair has some kind of through line. With Theo and Brett it’s lovely to know that both have other interests other than acting. I mean it goes without saying that both of these gentlemen are handsome and that both are great in their respective shows.

Who’s here after watching Theo James in The Gentleman?

"We love each other. We love each other." If all the men of the world could so comfortably state their honest and true affection for others as Brett does, humanity would be so much better off. Obviously, that's part of what makes Ted Lasso so great; men have feelings and love each other and talk about it and it's SO GOOD.

Totally down a Theo James rabbit hole after watching him in The Gentlemen on Netflix and had NO IDEA he produced Pepsi, Where’s my Jet?! That’s so wild. Here’s hoping he wants to stay in Guy Ritchie’s world a while longer bc it’s such a great show and he really shines in it.

Theo James has always been an exceptional actor - he deserves a big lead in something that really shows off his skills. Brett is a phenomenal writer as well as a lovely actor. Great pairing!

theyre so polite and eager to actually hear each others answers. this is probably one of the most informative and in-depth actors on actors I've seen

i love watching the rise of theo james. got obsessed with him as a teenager watching divergent and am still obsessed with him now.

I couldn't have loved this more. Two articulate, curious and open men talking about their trade with genuine mutual respect. So classy

“Eh-heh heh heh” “Uh- hah hah hah” 😂 I love them and their low, raspy British voices with their charismatic charm

Omg.....i saw the names and not gonna lie I freaked....I swear whoever is doing these damn pairings is a blessing for us all because they are just giving us gem after gem Actors on Actors I literally have not been this excited for the next one to come out like another episode of a series soooooooo great.... Theo and Brett has such a great vibe together wow

He's here, he's there, he's every fuckin where, Roy Kent Roy Kent! 🎶

Theo James is so dreamy

The way Brett was so quick to talk about Phil Dunster is so healing to me

AAAAAAAAAAAA I CANNOT DEAL WITH THIS PAIRING! I love them ❤

Theo is such a perfect specimen of a man, his face, body and kind heart 💜

Theo doesn’t get enough credit. Seen him in other stuff but after White Lotus, I was like, I don’t know if I’ll be able to view him as not a d-bag after this. He played that character so well.

6:05 I think Brett hit the nail on the head regarding Theo’s character in The White Lotus. Listening to Theo James speak is really interesting. The insight he has into whatever the topic of discussion is is pretty fascinating. I guess that’s his philosophy degree coming through. I may have to watch Ted Lasso now 😁

Theo was exceptional in Time Travelers Wife, simply amazing and it saddens me they had the nerve to cancel it.

Battle of the brows over here and I don't hate it😅

Two daddies stand before me

What a dynamic duo. Love both their work.

It's funny, they are sussing each other out at the start and then you see them slowly start to warm up as they realise they like each other as people.

He's here! He's there!

Hearing how everything worked out, to how much Ford loved the script for shrinking and Brett not wanting to cancel on 40 fans in so wholesome! Also loved the insight into the dichotomy behind characters in the white lotus🤍

Just watched Ted Lasso for the first time and am now binging Brett Goldstein content! Right on time

Harrison Ford was amazing on Shrinking. Definitely my top 3 shows of 2023

Love this conversation between two articulate men.

This is one of the best ones I’ve ever seen. It’s so natural and they honestly seemed interested in one another and not acting like they were interested. I really enjoyed it. Sometimes these seem very PR staged.

THANK YOU TO WHOEVER MADE THIS PAIRING

This was amazing! I'm obsessed with these Actors on Actors series but also blown away with how fast you guys keep posting a new one! 😍

Been looking forward to this. I’ve listened to Brett’s podcast for awhile. He’s so good in conversation. Listens well, very natural, responds thoughtfully. Just seems like someone one would enjoy talking with. A great communicator on top of being a good actor and writer.

I loved this interview. Actors ask actors the best questions.

This was fantastic. I don't know how Variety keeps doing it but all the sessions/parings this year have been just phenomena. Really, really like Bret, and Theo has evoled into a terrific actor. This went by like it was 10 minutes. Amazing industry insights from both.

Theo James is like an unproblematic, better version of James Franco (better actor as well).

I loved this one from start to finish, both of them are so talented and I was surprised to see the pairing but really enjoyed how easily the conversation flowed, also was very insightful for us as viewers into the minds of actors and their different styles

Great flow, Great chemistry, easiest to watch, pleasure to listen to. Great pairing !

they have such a good dynamic. enjoyed every minute of this.

Amazing! I've been a fan of Brett for so many years, I first saw him as a hilarious stand up, this huge success couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

What a brilliant interview, so interesting and such intelligent, down to earth guys.

This pairing is amazing! Such an easy watch!

I honestly did not expect these two to to have such a conversation. Wish they'd do a movie together!

The perfect pairing - thanks, Variety ❤

Both brilliant at their game, what a great interview 😍

i really wanted to watch this but my screen melted from all'a the hotness lawwwwwdhammercies 🔥🔥🔥

OH MY GAAAAWWWDDDD I did not want that to stop. Came for the hotties, stayed for the intelligent convo

If I don't look at this it just sounds like another episode of Films to be Buried With

Just by listening to Theo James talk, ones vocabulary can improve great deal! He's very well read n an intellectual person!

Variety’s Actors on Actors TV 2023 has been the very best. Literally the pairings are 💯

This was a really great conversation

Omg!! Love this pairing!

I can’t believe they did not talk about Aubrey Plaza’s character not watching Ted Lasso on The White Lotus

these two sound and have the same characteristics as each other it’s so funny

Am i the only one that knows Theo from his excellent voice acting as Hector in Castlevania? I love his voice so much..

Variety team is killing it with this series 💯

i simply cant decide who is more handsome...

Wonderful interview. I love Brett Goldstein so much! And Theo James is total eye candy 🥵

I love Brett Goldstein!

This was a match I didn't know I needed.

I always forget Theo is British lol

After watching this conversation, I’m 30% more British and 20% less straight.

I'd be willing to bet a fair amount of money that the show Brett was talking about where the second season there was no love for a particular character was Euphoria and the character was Kat.

These pairings!!!!!! Ahhhhhh!!!!!

Love the shout out to "Franny", it's a great film and one of Theo's best performances.

THEO JAMES !!!

Love these two so much

Theo was excellent in The Time Travellers Wife. So disappointed that didn't get a second season.

These combos have been unreal lately

Brett Goldstein is friggin hilarious in Ted Lasso

This is a treat. Whoever is selecting the pairings for this go-around deserves a fucking medal and a raise.

Very enjoyable session! Bravo 🎉

Omg Brett’s natural voice!!

Shrinking is Ford's best acting ever

this is like the best thing ever

Roy and Jamie scenes are life!

I’m very surprised Theo is 38. He looks younger…maybe 31/32. He’s aging very well so far.

What a pair! I need them to work together now 😍

He's here! He's there! He's every-f-ing-where! Roy Kent!

OK EVERYBODY. LETS MAKE THEO JAMES 700. he has ghe james bond vibe. Voice looks act like a pro and if you have seen his movies he can film fight.❤❤❤❤

these two seem to have a good vibe with each other - Get Theo on Ted Lasso if theres any more series coming

They’re so British! I love them!

I knew I was right to watch everything else Theo was in before White lotus, because watching him being an absolute tool was the hardest 😆

Theo James is the one and only Cyclops in MCU

I ain’t gonna lie their voices are hot AF…. I could listen to them all day

I can listen to Theo James all day long and his looks aren’t so bad either! The Harrison Ford story is classic! He’s so funny in Shrinking & it’s a great show! Can’t wait for Season 2❤

Lmao love how they both don’t want to answer questions about themselves

this is excellent

Very good selection of guests this excellent selection gives the viewer the impression of something they can say about me too I would do the same writer and actor and both gentlemen deserve something really big that would show the wide range of their extraordinary talent the tenth muse can be proud of their charges may not be known to the wider public, but that can change at any time, the instinct of fame, as you can see, is not a stranger to them, so the good that is about to happen is almost certain.

Theo ❤️

well done gentlemen!

I wasn't prepared

Oh Theo, Theo! 😋

OMG MY TWO CRUSHES IN ONE ROOM

I can’t deal with this it’s perfect 😂

As the great Lizzo once said, "I've been WAITING for this one"

It’s so weird hearing Brett talk and it not being that deep gruff voice lol

Now that the casting for Superman: Legacy has been confirmed and having watched this interview, Theo James is without a doubt Lex Luthor. He is a very skilled actor who takes his roles seriously and holds your attention, and he carries a degree of authority with him. He has the baritone to deliver the lines perfectly and he will eat up the screen like he did in The White Lotus S2. He is also charming/charismatic which the character has too..yep, if Gunn really wants talent and appeal in the movie he should tap Theo. I've seen him in How It Ends and he does Hector's voice in Castlevania. The man is consistent with everything he touches. His performance would be likened to that of a Vincent D'Onofrio who played Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin on DareDevil. He can definitely give you that really evil, manipulative and megalomanic, fear driven performance especially if Gunnn wrote it that way. Nicholas Hoult would be great but Theo would be perfection if you want the public to really take the character serious. Shave his head and he would slay🔥🔥🔥🔥.

I wish this was two hours

by the end of this video i spontaneously developed a womb & i'm now 7 months pregnant w theo's baby.

Brett Goldstein sounds like a witness protection name

mind is blown
