Isaw that agon today..she is cute.
What earbuds is Ali wearing?
Original? U mean ur blind to the fact its based on GTA 5 ?
Who the hell are you to pick on jacksepticeye? He's an experienced streamer and a business owner. What are you? An employee, a cog in a machine? Don't be so full of yourself.
Can we appreciate that Ryan Reynolds literally spent the entire interview hyping up Jodie Comer. What a legend
It’s a humble move. He wants to promote her for joining the crew.
To be fair she is totally worth the hype she’s super talented
maybe it´s because he is Canadian :D so gentle...
He's America's best dude and he's Canadian. We'll take him and all the Afghans.
as he should 😛
I love how Ryan uplifts his coworkers and has gratitude and humility. Class act.
Yes,excellent point! So rare to see someone world famous with gratitude and humility.Always loved Ryan,a Canadian like me.Probably a good role model for his children.
Unless it's Hugh Jackman.
Did you see Jodie Comer in Killing Eve? She doesn't need uplifting.
They are literally the ones who went to Jodi Comer, to get her to read with THEM because Jodi Comer is AMAZING 👏 Ryan Reynolds is also good.
it sure seems that way. Blessed are those who bless others!
Jodie is probably the greatest modern day actress I have seen. Her role in Killing Eve was off the charts in acting, you actually believe she is the strange minded ruthless killer with a strange soft spot to connect with Eve. The program was a bit off the wall, but her and Fiona Shaw made it well worth watching. Jodie will go on to greater things that is for sure, Oh I am a fellow scouser so I am a bit biased.
What about the mr asian woman
No you're right. Her portrayal of Villanelle is one of the best in recent TV history. She's unreal and will be a huge movie star soon. She killed it in this and The Last Duel.
Yup free guy two, free guy three and all other spinoffs !👍
And Sandra Oh. She’s phenomenal!!!
Two words. Prima Facie.
She makes such a loveable little psychopath on Killing Eve. I love how she plays Villanelle. I haven't seen her in anything else, but I hope to see her on a lot more.
She was in a show called The White Princess in 2017 and was great in that too!
She was in Dr Foster too
She was on a channel 4,show called My Mad Fat Dairy and justice.
I haven't seen Killing Eve. Now I want to.
Thirteen is worth watching as well, so different to Villanelle.
The fact she’s from Liverpool and can do all those accents says a lot about her as an actor, that’s a strong accent not to come through and she does it perfectly. Edit: geez over 5000 likes
Right? Normally it's a miracle if a scoucer can even get the words out! And she can do it reeeeeel guuud!
@@ahawkai no we can get them out its just understanding the accent that's the problem for some people
I dont think anyone knows her "real" voice. A few years ago she did Graham Norton's show and her "real voice" then was VERY Irish sounding.....
@@anthonylong5870 she’s prob adopted a rather global sounding accent due to dealing with so many people with different accents, I would imagine her original accent to be scouse though considering that’s where she’s from and that’s a hard one to lose
@@ahawkai It’s SCOUSER tit!! Got them words out.
Jodi does so many accents that she can’t even do her own anymore 🙈😂
Yeah exactly what i was thinking. Now she's sounds a mixture between American and something else
As a Brit, I resent that she has to put on an American twang 🤔
@@yourcommentmakesmecomment.3423 im a brit too and know what you mean 🙈 stay scouse gurl!😭
I just realized that Jodie Comer works with Canadian actors a lot :O
@@nancy.a London, but not cockney, more Made In Chelsea. Either way, it's a shame, many famous people retain their accent regardless, this is a conscious decision...
Jodie doesn't get enough credit she did soo many accents in killing eve it's crazyyyy. She's soo talented
I was shocked to find out the is British especially since the British accent she used in Killing Eve wasn’t from Liverpool
She is the only actress I know that can do so many accents that actually sound realistic
Ali's interviews are the best. He makes them comfortable like they're just friends having a fun conversation. 😊
i was gonna comment on how this interview was visibly uncomfortable for both actors. it just seems like there were a lot of awkward pauses between the two of them and lots of edit cuts/background music/movie clips saved this.
Man deserves his own show. Need more than 10 mins
I agree. Ali and graham norton are the only intervewers/hosts that make their guests feel comfy
@@TheEroina He’s so fake, I hate it. His extreme fake-ness prevents people from getting truly comfortable, in my opinion. His lack of genuineness just causes the people he interviews to act just as fake as he is. All of which makes for a boring, forced, awkward interview.
@@TheEroina They got really annoyed with him mainly asking Ryan questions, so much so that Ryan just had to point at the other actor to remind him that she was there
I just know Ryan is somehow gonna work “don’t you die on me goddammit” into one of the next Deadpool movies 😂
dude SPOILERS ALERT!
*Person dying* Ryan: don’t die on me goddammit! *Looks around excitedly* Ryan: i did it!! (With a huge grin) Dying man: what? Ryan: nevermind!! *whispers* dreams do come true…
Plot Twist: He’ll be talking about his cell phone battery.
@@ivanheffner2587 that would be hilarious lmao
@Ryan Reynolds YOU'RE NOT RYAN REYNOLDS
Jodie Comer is breathtakingly beautiful and immensely talented. She's literally perfect.
Her molotov girl persona was absolutely killing it, damn she looked hotter than ever
_Well close to perfection. After all, she's not Ryan Reynolds._
And a great singer
"Disney is not into laughing at themselves." So much truth. Hopefully RR helps!
Honestly I think she’s the best actor at accents
she probably is but the sad thing is that it is average... I can clearly spot that she is neither French or Italian or Russian which are 3 languages that i know .... but she is way better that other actors who are total garbage. I have never understand why for movie and TV show they do not hire more linguists (or good one)... saying a few line correctly in a show should be easy for an actor, it is not like they have to learn the whole language ...
Saoirse Ronan is better. She's done an accent in literally all of her movies and is always convincing.
Actress
@@JustJacoBee I love Saoirse but she is working on big screen for more than a decade now, and this is Jodie's first mainstream project she's just getting started, her accents in killing eve were spot on
Jodie needs to join the MCU as a badass villain.
She is / she is going to be valkyries lover !
@@slhood1 so... Queen of Asgard then
@@slhood1 Really???
As a villian to Deadpool, her character getting more and more annoyed when Deadpool doesn't die 🤣
she could play death, deadpool is "obsessed" with her.
Ryan is the man. He wasnt taking any of the lime light in that interview. He was making sure it was all about Jodie.
"Don't you die on me, goddammit!" Seems like something Deadpool could say in one of his MCU appearances.
Seeing Jodie Comer finally in the big screens, after being so underrated and playing really brilliant characters on Brit telly shows is bittersweet. Like, it took Killing Eve to be produced, before Hollywood noticed this stellar actress 🥺❤️✨
Well, at least she got her breakthrough. There are hundreds if not thousands of multi talented actors out there still waiting to be discovered... That's how big breakthroughs happen. You work, work, work until you are lucky enough to eventually make it big... Rome wasnt built in a day, you know?
Totally agree but I hate to be the one to say this, but I think she's better than this movie.
@@greyLeicester Fair enough. But what's bittersweet is not just that it takes long for them to be considered big or someone who had a breakthrough when they make it to Hollywood. I feel like some of the performers like her are even better than Hollywood's cliché films, but since because it is Hollywood, despite something being cliché, they'd be considered as someone who made it big already, when maybe even way back they were already more than that.
@@yourcommentmakesmecomment.3423 I haven't really seen the movie yet, so I could not comment about that specifically. But I totally get what you mean, some performers like her are better than Hollywood's cliché films.
Yes! I’ve been following her career since My mad fat diary. She’s brilliant, so glad she’s starting to get noticed.
Jodie will always be Chloe from 'My Mad Fat Diary' to me. She does such a brilliant performance, she makes you hate character her and then understand her. It's one of the best character arcs and shows ever and her performance is one of the many reasons why.
yeah, she was like a "villian" at the begining, but later you start to see things from her angle and she end being a better person than the main character :)
Got to love “Chlo-aaaaay”
That was a great show! She was brilliant in it
just finished re-watching it for the 6th time and the way she says "Rae" will forever be ingrained in my mind
@@hazza335 that’s my niece’s name and I say it like that now
The fact that she can overcome a LIVERPOOL accent, of all accents, to do what she does is incredible.
It's an accent bro, she's not in a wheelchair
What do you mean overcome?
Ali: *Asks Ryan a question* Ryan: Don't focus on me, focus on Jodie
"Isn't theatre school in UK just the womb." Ryan Reynold's at his sharpest wit again.
loll ... i was searching for this comment. And my mental image changed so drastically from green hospital curtains
It's not an amazing line
@@jamescricketson9464 why are you such a downer. You seem to pop up everywhere.
@@TheRunn70 where else you seen me?
@@jamescricketson9464 you commented on another reply within this same video.
What would be perfect for Ryan's "Don't you die on me" moment would be if a no name side character in deadpool got their head blown off and he grabs their lifeless body and says it.
good one, twitter it to Ryan, he listens to that stuff.
You're hired.
I'd almost guarantee that's gonna be in there.
Omg that's brilliant!
lol totally reminds me of "that guy was up there when I got here"
the fact that Ryan mentioned "compared to Marvel" talking about the scale of shoot at this time is...interesting
It was the green screen I think
Deadpool & the Hulk’s in the works so maybe he’s referencing that
I tend to be frustrated with interviewers, most are not very good, but this guy is actually really good at interviewing, the ability to get them to talk more on their own instead of forced conversations. Great interview. Oh, and the stars were cool.
I’d love to see Ryan Reynolds do live improv, he’s naturally hilarious.
He's really not
@@jamescricketson9464 u probably like Pixar movies comedy
@@hud56 there's more cgi in this than a pixar movie
@@jamescricketson9464 yeah, and?
@@adamkapral5931 and what
Ugh i just love how Ryan doesn't always try and take all the attention to himself and also brings the spotlight onto Jodie too! Their bond is truly amazing
This interviewer is still my favorite one. He can easily make his guests relaxed and comfortable. Everything seems natural and fluid. It's always fun to watch. Well done again Ali!
Jody is being praised throughout this whole interview... and I'm here for it! Well deserved 👏🏽
About Jodie it’s so true that I had absolutely no ideas who she was, but in Killing Eve she just appeared out from no where, and only after a few seconds I think absolutely everybody was in loved with her, sensational talents, someone who able to switch from a sadistic killer to a sweet angle in a ten of a second got to have a lots of talents. Wonderful combination of Ryan and Jodie. 😍😍😍👍
Is she a right, acute, or obtuse angle
@@jaylamb88 shes a reflex angle
Ryan is awesome. He kept handing the interview to Jody. Clearly giving her opportunity. 💕
He's like that.
I love RR but I did notice that sometimes Ali would ask Jodie a question & she'd be barely through a sentence when Ryan would start talking.
@Ryan Reynolds mate no-one is falling for this fake account you're not verified and have no subs. Just stop 😂
@@foamer443 what, able to have a conversation? Skills
This was a hilarious movie… it started out like Lego Movie “guy” reminded me of Emmet… and then it turned into a hilarious show! 😎
Yes I was thinking this is the plot to Lego Movie for a while haha
Lego movie meets ready player one
That is a great way to describe it :)
Im amazed how this beautiful young lady can look so young and so grown up in all the different parts she plays and as for Ryan, well my love for him just keeps growing. So quick witted, good looking and genuinely a loving, kind and caring gentleman. What a fantastic duo, cannot wait to watch this movie.
My favourite junket interviewer. And favourite actors.
For a press junket interview that's about the best you can hope for. Maybe he was near the start of the queue before the repetitive questions start to wear down the actors.
"Don't you die goddamnit" is definitely going to be in the next deadpool movie.
Jodie is SO beautiful, but she's also an amazing actor, and quite unique, I's say.
Can’t wait to see this...two absolutely brilliantly talented people ❤️
Jodie Comer is the most underrated actress.
She’s sooo good, She’s going to win an Oscar someday
Actresses in big budget movies are not underrated. That word does not mean what you think it means.
Too bad she sucks in this movie.
@@buttthecat1354 she kinda does suck in this movie
She’s not underrated she’s recognised for her talent she has an Emmy and a bafta I do love her though I wish she was in more projects
Reynolds is on fire with the pub for his movie everywhere. Kudos to him
man I remember Jodie from My Mad Fat Diary 😭 and now seeing her making moves in the industry and getting the recognition she deserves is great. her accent game is TOP NOTCH, she’s so talented
Love Alis interviews! Never a boring repetitive question!
Ali's love for Jodie is almost palpable 😂😂😂 But then again, who can blame him...
I love that Ali is becoming so famous to the point where his interviewees recognize him... Dude's becoming an A-lister...
Probably helps that a lot of interviewers are boring too.
@Adam Ratman ali
The interviewer's voice is too deep and smooth. He needs to not be so close to the microphone so we're not bombarded by so much base. It's rude of him not to already know this & to be doing something about it.
God she’s lovely and so talented. So happy for her success and the fact she’s representing Liverpool gives me the warm fuzzies. What an inspiration for people who aren’t brought up in Holywood but want to be an actor. I wouldn’t want to be in that industry but it still inspires me to go for mey own dreams xox
I am just obsessed with Jodie. Love her as Villanell and watched the 3 seasons in 3 days 🤣 She's that amazing
Two best Assassins casually hanging out.
You are such a lovely interviewer I could watch your interviews all day! This movie was fantastic
Ali Plumb is a brilliant interviewer. It was like three friends just talking...well done, well done.
This looks so good 😊 how lovely to see Jodie at this level....not that’s she’s ever been under par. She belongs in the echelons of film. Incredible talent.
It looks absolutely terrible
@@jamescricketson9464 it was actually a really fun enjoyable movie. It’s not gonna win any Oscars but that’s clearly not what it was going for
Can't wait to see this movie 👍. Jodie is an incredible actress and Ryan, come on 🤣, anything Ryan dives into makes life so much happier . 🤗 ALASKA.
Well, everything but Green Lantern and X-Men Origins: Wolverine...
Great interview. Very well developed questions. Free Guy was well done. Ryan and Jodi seem like genuinely lovely people as well. I can't wait for more Deadpool and Jodi is possibly the next Doctor (really hope so!). I also just want Taika Waititi to keep doing whatever he's doing. 5:24 - Jacksepticeye mention! That's awesome. I was literally so happy for actual streamer/YTer cameos.
The man has hit his stride. He's found his superpower in a place, not only in front of the camera but behind it as well. There is absolutely nothing wrong with him building some supportive framework for an actor he's decided to work with. And this lady can do accents. She's convincing, and very capable. This was a happy opportunity for her. Ryan Reynolds is known for his generosity by everyone he's worked with. It's why he is as popular as he is.
Ali is a great interviewer he asks the right questions and always makes his guests feel at ease. Ryan is always great and never tries to steal the spotlight from his co-stars. Let us not forget Jodie the woman who can blend in anywhere because she can do any accent, I loved her in killing Eve she was great, so cold and ruthless.
The only thing missing is hot suaces.
The interviewer's voice is too deep and smooth. He needs to not be so close to the microphone so we're not bombarded by so much base. It's rude of him not to already know this & to be doing something about it.
Ali's interview style has impressed me from the first interview I watched him give. His guest always seem comfortable, and appear to enjoy themselves. I can't count how many times I've heard an interviewee say "that's a great question." Keep up the good work.
This movie did not disappoint!! I went for some laughs and got them.. Love both of them!!
Good interview, a real pleasure to watch. Listening to Jodie Comer, seems her Liverpudlian accent has been invaded by the many other accents she surrounds herself with and the effect of living a lot of your life away from your home town. Could only hear the Liverpool in her about 30% of the time. Mind you, having spent a year in the USA myself, I recall how I had to water down my British accent to make it easier for those around me to understand, because two nations divided by a common language is a real thing ;)
Dang I will watch just bc I loved her so much in Killing Eve
My son and I just saw Free Guy and absolutely loved it. Jodie and Ryan are both exceptional actors!
She was really good in the series "White Princess" for those that don't know the series was about the reign of Henry the 7th and she played his wife the queen. I said myself she is going places.
Excellent Acting. Not enough exposure!
I like Ali interviews man... he always makes it look like they are friends for 20 years. Smooth interviews. Great job man.
The interviewer's voice is too deep and smooth. He needs to not be so close to the microphone so we're not bombarded by so much base. It's rude of him not to already know this & to be doing something about it.
I'm from the US and have never watched Ali episodes until recently. I wish more interviewers would look to you and take the hint on how professional you are. Always looking forward to the next one :)
Jodie is so insanely talented. So glad she’s booking bigger & bigger roles!!
God i love how humble Ryan Reynolds is, after deadpool he is for sure doing intense stunt work while telling a joke, that's really, really hard. You try running around doing physical moves which could easily result in injury in say fight scenes and time a joke, it's so hard. There's no way, Ryan Reynolds massively underplaying his stunt ability, and radio 1 again producing a really nice interview that's like a large glass of hot chocolate/ tea break
They’re both so talented in this movie. I can’t wait to see Free Guy 2 and I hope she and Ryan work together again!
jodie ❤️❤️❤️
First of all Jodie Comer… * brilliant in everything*
Didn't really think much of her arse in that walking away scene in the leather pants 🤨
Everything BUT this movie.
I love both of them. Can't wait to see this
yep, Ali's still the best interviewer out there. Never disappoints! Thank you
That was such a good interview. Can’t wait to see the movie.
@Ryan Reynolds follow up. I went and saw Free Guy! It was the perfect date night movie and did not disappoint. Laughed my ass off. Now Mariah Carey's song Fantasy is stuck in my head until the end of time. Thank you for that.
“Nothing compared to marvel movies” lol Ryan casually dropping that he’s in upcoming projects.
Well after the Fox acquisition went through Marvel announced they will keep him as Deadpool and the next movie will remain rated R.
@@cjtrules1 I’m so excited for another dead pool
@@okidoki4516 Same. I have confidence that Feige will leave it well enough alone so it can do what it was doing at Fox. No need to intervene much.
@@cjtrules1 yes exactly. And there is gonna be loads more characters in it since number 2 and since he’s officially apart of the MCU maybe even marvel ones !
@@okidoki4516 Yep so the cameos and Easter eggs will be fun. I still think Marvel should leave DP 3 mostly alone and afterwards negotiate with Ryan about continuing the role as an integrated character in the MCU.
2 fantastic actors!!
Great interview. I usually watch a movie once then not again for months. However I've seen free guy at least 4 times already. Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Best I've seen in a very long time.
This Interviewer is the best! Always a pleasure to watch him converse with these other-worldly people.
This was so good all around. Great interviewer, ryan is a quick witted lad and Jodie is a breath of fresh air. Loved it.
Love Ali’s interviews!! 💜
She is the most amazing actress . I love her . xx
Nice interview with two great, beloved actors. Ryan Reynolds is so talented and funny.
One of their many interviews that I really enjoyed a lot. Like I've been smiling all the time. It's like having a conversation with great friends :)
I dont know if it is all Canadians but Ryan Reynolds is definitely their Poster Child. His manners are impeccable (when needed to be), he is a gentleman and treats women right, and he rarely blows his own horn but has no problems bringing in a brass band for his co stars. I truly hope he is or becomes No 1 in his field because of all the actors he is No 1 in my heart. What a real man.
From what I've heard from fellow Canadians, we're all very proud of him. He helped out many charities during the pandemic. He's a class act.
This movie is soo good I've seen it twice in the cinema already. Ryan Reynolds and Jodie Comer are just epic!
This movie was filmed in my city (Boston). Also it’s cool to see Jodie getting the love she deserves, she’s fantastic and she’s my favorite actress. Great to see Ryan, such a funny and charming guy. Also props to this interviewer, he did a great job!
Jodie baby! ❤️
It’s amazing to see how far she’s come!! I absolutely adored her in “My Mat Fat Diary” AND “Killing Eve”!!! How’s she’s working with Ryan Gosling! 😍😍 Go Jodie Go!! 🙌🏼
Jodi is a genius 👌 loved the film, will probably watch it again after this!
Haha I enjoyed that Jodie was lookin' kinda over it whenever Ali and Ryan would gush about her great accent work.
A big fan of Ryan Reynolds ❤️
What a lovely natural interview ! V Parky. Great interviewer.
Love these two working together.
Love Jodie, have delighted in her assassin role in Killing Eve, as well as other TV shows . A damn fine actress. And she DOES do a nifty line in Slo-Mo Walking away from the camera, too. A useful talent!
she's adorable and talented! 🤘🤗💗
6:45 _"bone breaking of any kind is not for me"_ - DEADPOOL.
every interview is a gem, brilliant stuff Ali and thank you
Love Jodie comer ! And Ryan is great ! Jodie was amazing in the White Princess!
Jodie Comer is the best. 💕
I love Ryan and Jodie. You are amazing.
Fantasy is such an amazing song period, and to have this as a backdrop is even more epic.
Jodie is such an amazing actress I love her in killing eve
*ALI PLUMB* 🤩🤩
I love Jodie Comer. This was so fun :) Thanks Ali.
Ali is the best movie interviewer ever.... he loves and gets passionate abot the movie and references grate details about the movie.... 🙌🏴
