Andrew Garfield, Kristen Stewart, Penélope Cruz & More on Making It In Hollywood | Vanity Fair
Andrew Garfield, Kristen Stewart, Penélope Cruz, Idris Elba, Nicole Kidman, Benedict Cumberbatch, Michaela Jaé Rodriguez and Simu Liu is quite the star-studded group. For this year's Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue, each actor was asked 8 questions about their craft, times they considering giving up, what they've learned from costars, and so much more. Kristen Stewart knew from a young age she had a lot to learn from Jodie Foster. Singing in Moulin Rouge was the most anxious Nicole Kidman has ever been in her career. Mj Rodriguez recalls the moment she got a call from Ryan Murphy that she landed her role as Blanca in 'Pose.' Andrew Garfield describes the complexity of improvising and making up a song, singing it live, AND playing the piano in 'tick, tick... BOOM!'

I'm so happy for Andrew. He's getting so much recognition which he deserves. He's amazing.
- Andrew - "I want to fight an alien... I’m lame. I fought like a Russian guy in a rhinoceros machine." - Toby - "No, your amazing." - Andrew - "Thank you, I really needed that."
I agree. I just watched tick tick boom...he was incredible. I've been a fan of his since The Social Network.
He’s kind of a toolbox
And where is Ben Barnes NOOOOW! Huh!!! (No seriously, where he..)
Right?! Like who dared tell him he was not handsome!
andrew bringing up not being cast as prince caspian every chance he gets is my favorite thing ever
"I'm not bitter, guys. At ALL."
Gotta love how he twists "Not handsome enough" into being just generally unattractive!
@@Leahonomatopia he's so wrong lmao
@@Leahonomatopia it's not only that he wasn't handsome enought, is that thry were searching a mediterranean actor for Caspian, Ben is not mediterranean but looks like one, all the Telmarines are hispanic-mediterranean
@@TheSamuelbest12 that makes sense, Andrew looks more English than anything 😂
Simu Liu is so grounded and humble. Great actor
I wouldn’t say he’s made it in Hollywood yet though, this is a bit of a stretch, he isn’t in the league of any of the other actors there tbh
glad 2022 embrace diversity what with AAPI for sure.
I mean, I wouldn’t say he’s grounded or humble. I think his career diss that for him. Not saying he’s not a good actor, but he’s really only been in Shang-Chi. No where in the league of all the Oscar winners and nominees that are in this video. Even Mj has been in more good, quality movies and shows than he has.
@@matthewyazel5999 Don't disrespect Kim's Convenience like that
Yes
I just love Andrew Garfield, his voice is so nostalgic and he just exudes warmth.
I adore him sm. The man oozes passion! He's such a well spoken individual. He is a gem of a human being.
But what is he wearing?.
@@dovelove5427 ikr !!!! he deserves the best
@@jennwoodard8365 honestly, I believe that with the way he carries himself he can rock anything and own it ! Even if it seems a bit eccentric.
What 😂
Kristen's awkward and shy mannerisms and almost tics seem to have disappeared, replaced by a certainty that is really cool to have seen develop over literal decades
Or you know, she's not 17 any more. How about the problem was in people like you who judged her when she was overwhelmed by huge fame at a young age?
She's a disgusting human being.
@@carlosoliveira-rc2xt What makes you say that?
I love how her tics and movements were in Diana, how antsy she was in Twilight, translates in Spencer, Personal Shopper and Seberg. The hands through the hair, blinking and the craning neck jerks
I feel like her movie, Spencer, gave her her confidence back. It's the first time in a long time she's gotten a lot of praise for a role, and she's even up for an Oscar because of it.
Idris Elba: always tell the truth. Penelope Cruz: I lied about my age.
Yaeh i laughed about that too :)
😂
goes to show there is no one true way to be in acting
Idris lied about being American during the audition process for The Wire.
I really hope Andrew get his well deserved Oscar
Benedict will, I hope. Andrew will get another chance
@@jankatkaromka nope, Andrew will win it. He is the most deserving
@@mubx4323 we'll see 😉
I actually think it’ll be will smith but Andrew should get it
It should go to Will Smith for King Richard
Literally bawling at the fact that Benedict mentions Martin Freeman. My childhood was made up of these men and I’ll forever be grateful to them.
I was looking for a Sherlockian in this comment section
not sure what he means by musicality of Martin but guy sure has great comedic timing
Nicole saying her career breaking point was when she turned 40 and was pregnant was really heartbreaking
I don't know but most people doesn't realise what a wonderful career Nicole had. She is still going strong. Her acting is just impeccable.
@@lifePaultheball I think she's overated and Cate Blanchett is incredible..just my unpopular opinion.
Haha there can be more than one, Mel 🙃
Kristen being relieved when she doesn't get a role is way too relatable😅I too have to convince myself I am capable of doing jobs I want/am offered lol
bit of imposter syndrome, eh?
@@bennyton2560 big time 😅
(doctors say) It's an indicator of being raised by oppressive parents. Kids scrutinized, questioned, criticized by parents, especially those who often use physical force to `discipline`.
@@taseronify. The phrase: “doctors say”, comes across as utterly vague and non-specific. Of course this may be one way to explain certain feelings and behaviours, however people’s psyche in general is too complicated for such an absolute and one dimensional explanation. So, you may be right, and you may be wrong about the reasons for Kristen Stewart’s feelings and behaviours.😌
I want Benedict, Andrew and Kristen in ONE movie PLEASE
Yesssss please
YESSS PLEASEEE
Simu Liu too🥺
Literally all I ever want
Simu Liu reciting the Avengers theme is one of the best parts of this video
🤣
Benedikt talking about his co-stars is quite possibly my new favorite thing.
Love the way he talks. He sounds so intelligent and decent
now I want the full version
He’s a great human and a phenomenal actor.
I’m really liking Idris and Andrew’s outfits. They look awesome. Especially since theirs have more bright colours.
Versace and Dolce and Gabanna darling
Jordan Peterson Agrees
Right!
I'm sure Idris has D&G. I've seen that collection like a year ago.
@@deadpool6072 Idris is 100% in Versace, trust me I'm a stylist and my job to quickly know who is wearing what.
Kristen and Andrew in one video is not something I knew I needed
Now we need them to be in a movie together
I love how Andrew still not over he wasn’t cast as prince caspian but loved they choose Ben. He is just such a honest kind soul
they're both lovely ahahahaha
Everyones rambling Andrew this and that but Idris Elba truly needs more recognition. Whatever role he plays, he elevates it masterfully. He honestly needs more acting roles
Idris Elba is the most real of all these actors featured here and one of the greats of his generation.
More recognition? He already has 80% of American women drooling over him!😍
I agree!!!
Nicole Kidman has had such a varied and interesting career. Her choices for roles are often unconventional, but she always seems to do a brilliant job.
Andrews giant flower broach is making it difficult for me to take anything he’s saying seriously 😂😂
it's so enormous 😭😭
That broach is louder than his voice.
The suit would have looked great even without it. Unnecessary.
Andrew with his rosé suit and beautiful flower And then Benedict 😂
lmao😭💀
Benedict Footballcoach
I love these videos when actors talk about the vulnerable parts of their career. There is someone in these comments and video likes who will be in one of these videos in a few years for sure.
I hope I join these people🙏
@mahaillie maybe you 😘
that will be me
This is really great to see them like this. Reminds you that they're just humans like us. They have great talent and use it, as they should. And they're all very good at it in their own way. I will forever support actors and actresses, acting is not easy.
What makes u think they are not humans ? Just cuz they do movies ?
Andrew Garfield and Kristen Stewart. Future Academy winners 🖤🖤
Chuuzus! I was literally watching ur reaction. Love ur humour!!
Penélope Cruz
I ship them
I want this but like...I want Benedict too...I'm so confused
YES MANIFEST IT
i love how there’s no singular or “right” path in making it in hollywood. all of these actors had such a different journey, and all of them are amazing
Why is Benedict dressed like a 90s hip hop artist 😭
I think he was filming some ad, or doing a photo shoot
I love the enthusiasm Simu liu has about MCU, same he has projected in Shang chi. Guy should get more opportunities.
I truly look up to Cumberbatch because he's just got this aura of deep wisdom combined with the most endearing kind of naivety that makes him a wonderful person.
Notice how Kidman and Cruz ,despite being in the industry for so long, and have each won an Oscar, still feel like they’re learning. Wow 👏🏻
Love hearing actors talk about their passion! Andrew, Benedict, Kristen, and Idris especially have my heart.
Simu was so good in Kim's convience, love that whole cast they were great and I miss the show so much
Omg right? That show was pure gold!!
So happy to see Simu among these wonderful actors.
Why nobody talking about Benedict and his chains. My guy
andrew and kristen 💖✨
"My name is Penélope CruZZZZZZZZZZZ" 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 As in "come on, guys, if you can pronounce 'truth' you should be able to pronounce my surname correctly". 😁
They also don't pronounceher name correctly but I found refreshing that she is still trying :)
Simu Liu is so well spoken and down to earth. It's great to see more asian faces in the movie industries, feeling represented :)
‘Looking at nerves as an indicator of getting close to something I’m meant to’ nice
Why is nobody commenting on Benedict Cumberbatch‘s outfit?! 🤣🙈
yea ! , dude is spending so much time on US ! lol
I died when he appeared the first time, just after Andrew and his flower broach LOL
Man is dressed up like a GTA4 character
He’s dressed like Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems
@@ericgershilevich7190 LMFAO
Andrew Garfield saying Ben Barnes is attractive is going to make the marauders fandom very happy lol
Seing them so vulnerable, makes me respect them even more. I'm glad vanity brought in a diverse pool of actors. Great job VF!
Knowing I could've run into/approached by Simu Liu in the Financial District in Toronto and just kept walking is now a big regret of mine.
I love Penelope she is my fave actress and I am glad they invited her to do this, she’s been in the industry for so long
I feel so happy for both Simu and Andrew.
Benedict as one of the Tracksuit Mafia.
Come on BRO
I’m literally so happy seeing MJ Rodriguez getting the attention and recondition she deserves, I hope to see her in more upcoming projects !!!
Garfield with the Phoebe vibes in the One Where No One is Ready 👌 That HUGE flower. Also, dude IS handsome. In addition, Boy A was brilliant. I loved how his younger character in that role was playing Spider-Man in that one scene 😄 LOVED Tick, Tick…Boom. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world.
Almost teared up at 14:59 🥲 Hearing Ben talks about Martin just makes me so emotional. I love my Baker Street boys. Still my favourite duo to this date🥲❤️ And no, I don’t think they dislike each other. They’re just not as close as we expect them to be irl
Idris Elba is the definition of cool, they should start a new series of ads of the most interesting man in the world and he should star in it.
I see Andrew Garfield, I click. Love him ❣️
Glad to see Kristen getting the recognition she deserves 💕
It’s my dream to be an actress and when I see videos like these and how actors are so raw and authentic it connects me further to my goal
OMG same I hope the best for you in your upcoming carrer 😉
The way Kristen sits compared to the others is just 🤌
So happy that Simu Liu made it to Hollywood. Just the type of guy and actor we needed!
Hands down to Simu Liu as a person who still in learning early process of acting and has made a very big step into Hollywood. Also, as soon as Benedict talked about Freeman in such an admiring ways made me so happy because the duo together in all the series and films, I am always hook to how amazing these two people are.
100% with Nicole Kidman's protect your spirit advice
I love how these interviews with these actors reveal their humanity, it feels raw, relatable, and grounds them, usually Hollywood we see a fakeness to it, but this reveals their sincerity of genuinely getting lucky, catching a break, or taking that plunge despite fear and not knowing where they will end up, but through perseverance they made it and have to continually sustain it. Being successful will always yield new opportunities of growth.
Simu Liu playing the endgame soundtrack to hype himself up is the greatest thing i've ever heard
My love for Benedict keeps manifesting
He’s just phenomenal ❤
Andrew Garfield thinking Ben Barnes is more handsome when I just see two very attractive men.
I hope Andrew and Kristen will have some next movie project.
Hoping Kristen Stewart and Andreaw Garfield to be united in the 3rd Spiderman film version of Andreaw Garfield, a replacement for Emma Stone who has died in the film's story🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌😍😍😍😍😍😍
This video literally fell into my lap the moment I kinda needed it most. Was starting to feel like my worries and ongoing and pending struggles with getting into Hollywood was consuming me to the point of... /considering/ giving up. Had a deep talk with an acquaintance earlier who inspired me so much to keep going, and this video pushed me even further, seeing that you had my favorite actors sit down for this single interview.
Don’t give up! Can’t wait to see you on the big screen!
@@shroomsquid6398 First thing I see upon waking up.. got me tearing up. Thank you so much. You don't know how much this means to me.
Keep going girl, we're rooting for you!🤗
I LOVE kristens existential answer at the end!!!!
*Benedict Cumberbatch deserves the Oscar.* He's brilliant ♡.♡
I love that the comments are all about Andrew. Glad to know I'm not alone in my obsession.
This is pretty great, I like how they were able to ask each other questions
Benedict Cumberbatch looks like he's in some gang with gold chain and that jacket 🤣
Officially leaving my marketing agency job to really get involved with acting and I am SO nervous but the passionate is burning inside me. Simu is definitely an inspiration for me as an aspiring Asian-American actor leaving financial stability for a creative career.
good luck :)
Any luck so far with your acting career?
@@VioletHype 6 months and still no reply, hopefully she’s done good
I love this interview so much it reminds you about the effort the time and the emotional value of being an actor, of playing a different character and making something new. I aspire to be an actor one day and alot of people think that its going to be easy; then interviews like this shows how much and how long it takes for you to call yourself and actor. I admire everyone who decides to audition or even play a character because it is something not everyone can do. vanity fair personally I thank you for getting such actors to speak up about the different times in their carrer and how it had affected them emotionally, mentally and physical and thank you to the actors who decided to join this interview !!
I wish it could be a tie at the oscars between Benedict & Andrew both are amazing but i feel that Ben really is one of the greatest actors of all time he can make any character iconic plus his Sherlock is absolute perfection ❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻
Noone else could play BBC version Sherlock except him. NOONE.
@@prachiarora6245 obviously, he is the perfect Sherlock def better than Downey Jr or any other actor
@@Pablorcct Gotta agree. The closest has to be Henry Cavill.
@@prachiarora6245 well Henry is also British he can do it better, i'm sure 🤟🏻😁
@@Pablorcct I disagree I preferred Downey as Sherlock Holmes
I cannot forget William H. Macy's opening sentence in the previous segment: "If you're a one in a million type, there are 7 out of you only in Manhattan." I'd love to see a similar concept but only with screenwriters, Aaron Sorkin, Jordan Peele, Adam McKay, Gillian Flynn, Spike Jonze, Christopher Nolan, Quentin Tarantino, Spike Lee. That'd be awesome!
Idris Elba is the love of my life, but...OMG! Benedict is "the voice" of my life. Even when Idris can be extremely handsome and stunning to see, I really really like Benedict's voice. His voice is so warming and comfy. He looks like a great person. And of course, lovin' with all my heart Miss Penélope, such a beautiful accent, such a beautiful and gorgeous woman.
Cool interviews, a lot of insights with artists that I love and admire, yet the best bit for me was 30 seconds in, with Penelope accentuating the 'TH' sound on the end of her name, correcting all of us non-Spanish speakers (quite rightly, too) 😂😂😂
When in your career did you feel the most nervous? Everyone: talked about singing, practicing the speech, screen testing etc. Benedict Cumberbatch: RED CARPET IS ODD. I love him.
"Evil cannot create anything new...they can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made" - J. R. R. Tolkien
can we have kristen as oscar nominee every to get more of these photoshoots and interviews
ACADEMY AWARD NOMINEE KRISTEN STEWART 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
13:25 "A complete reinterpretation of the music she was playing with the orchestra of her talent". *Dayum, Benedict.* Mic drop 🎤
Idris Elba NEEDS to play Othello. He’s the perfect choice
Benedict ! Just so profound! Andrew and Kristen too.
Penelope Cruz is so beautiful...this woman 💚💚
These are THE interviews I care to listen!
I like that Cumberbatch said that about he being sort of weirded out by red carpets, because it’s glaringly obvious and I've always wondered what the reason was for his discomfort. When he’s been with Sophie, both of them look stressed. I thought maybe she didn’t like it and he was uncomfortable because of that. Maybe it’s the other way.
these are my favorite favorite favorite type of interviews for actors, it’s so genuine
Wow - this is one of the BEST interviews I’ve ever seen😊
Simu is that one friend that is willing to make himself look silly and is down for anything
Idris talking about Mandela and his father gave me instant goosebumps
Penelope is a fantastic actress
to hear andrew talking about ben barnes is making me crave a marauders movie so baddddd
i love how the perfect cast for them has been out there for years and we sill haven't gotten a movie with them
Great to see Andrew getting more recognition and praise. He truly deserves it.
2022 Oscar winning Benedict Cumberbatch
Or maybe Andrew Garfield…
Benedict Cumberbatch was the most deserving of that Oscar.
Kristen is gorgeous and articulated. She's one of these people who's always trying to improve herself. ❤️
this is an amazing bunch of actors!!! they’re all so honest and passionate about their jobs
I really loved this! especially Kristen & Andrew are so beautifully spoken and I feel like I grew up with them and am so proud of them
I am so shocked to know that Andrew was told he is not good looking enough. Like his looks and voice is so attractive.
Ok.... I'm ready for Kristen's book on acting to come out 😂😂👏🙌🙌 she has a way with words like no one else
6:48 Such wise words by Andrew
Benedict camberbatch 😍😍
"They don't think you're attractive enough". Many would disagree. Andrew's had the last laugh career wise.
This. YES.
I'm here for Andrew ❤️
Ma boy Benedict out here lookin' clean #drip
