Willem Dafoe Pronounced His Name Wrong | CONAN on TBS

Since he is not evil, he is actually Willem Dafriend
HAHAHAHA!!! 😂👏
Hahahah. Such an underrated comment
Missed oportunity to have called him Willem Dabro
Leo Alec 😂😂😂
LMAO! best laugh of the night for me
Willem Defoe has looked like he's about 55 years old for 40 years
And he looked 30 in that old tape
Is that a good thing?
Fakhri Muhamad Ok thanks 😬
@Fakhri Muhamad LoL
hahahahahhahahahahaha
Willem's smile is so genuine, but there is a layer of disarming mischief that still makes you question it. Perfectly cast for the Green Goblin.
That front upper teeth, it’s perfect as the goblin, hope he never ever fix it
@@onezero-10 They put fake teeth on him when he was acting as Norman Osborn. As the green goblin he had his normal teeth on display.
@@Sapientiaa that is such a cool detail that i would’ve never noticed
@@Sapientiaa for real, any source?
@@onezero-10 Yeah, the movie. Plus Google.
To everyone mentioning that he also said "William": Willem's actual name is William James Dafoe. Willem is his nickname (and just the Dutch version of William), acquired in high school.
Holy crap thank you
I was so confused as to why everyone thought him saying his own name was so crazy and had to be pointed out 😂
Uh! Toller Name! Aber was ist eine "Dosenhose"?
@@johanneshalberstadt3663 Frag mich nicht. Der Name entstammt einer Brainstorming Session von vor ~15 Jahren. :D
Similar to how Kaiser Wilhelm can be translated as Emperor William
The fact that Dafoe has not portrayed the Joker is a crime.
Been saying that for years
Conan resembles the riddler a little LOL
They really tried to make his Green Goblin sorta like the Joker at the very least. The part where they’re chilling on the roof feels like the Joker
Neen Alladeem dark knight returns would be good.

🤣🤣🤣🤣
For such a perfect villain, hes such a gentle and polite guy.
Some say hes something of a scientist too , you know
He's not only played villains, either. He's been real nice guy characters, too. He's even been Jesus! But, offscreen, he's always seemed nice. He's just a great actor.
In every interview of him I've seen, he's always smiling and friendly.
That is how they all start out.
Just don't scream Hobgoblin in his face and run off .... He's a delicate soul ....
I think Dafoe will go down as one of the most under appreciated actors. The man kills it in every role he does, deserves more recognition for his work.
To Live and Die in LA
Him and Paul Dano as well
Chooses a lot of odd and challenging roles, too
not anymore.. his acting was insane in no way home
He’s an absolutely legend
He seems like such a cool and genuine guy. Great actor
I heard he was something of a scientist himself

Grimey i love how grammar nazis just assume everyone is from an english speaking country. like... no? english is my fourth language, sorry i don’t know it perfectly.
I could honestly listen to this man for hours, put his voice as a version for Siri, audiobooks. I hear this man as the voice of my conscience.
Imagine throw your phone away and it goes: "YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I SACRIFICED" 🤣🤣🤣
Or as an alarm tone. Willem Dafoe tells you to get out of bed, you get out of bed.
This man kills it in every role that he played. I hope that him returning as the goblin helps him by finally getting recognized again for his masterful work
Not just his surname- he called himself 'William'.
His name is William. When that video was recorded he probably hadn't started going by Willem yet.
@@BaderAaron these pretentious actORs, eh? I can understand why Olivia Wilde might want to change her name- but not Big Willy D.
gnamp it was his nickname when he was a little kid
legally his name is william. he got willem as a nickname referencing his dutch hertiage, and went with that as his stage name. probably easier for a sag card or more unique/stands out more.
@@scamrasc It's not that more different then a person who's name is William going by Liam, Will, Bill, yada yada, it's just a nickname.
Nobody gonna mention that he said “William”😭
William is actually his real name, but he acquired the nickname Willem in high school and decided to use that as his professional name.
As a Willem i disaprove of this
@@1Ts4REAL lol, Good One! I was gonna ask whether your parents named you after the actor but then I realized you are Dutch or South African! Hence, this version of William. :D
Little known fact: Conan O'Brien is actually pronounced CONAN THE DESTROYER.
I went to high school with him in Appleton Wisconsin “Appleton East High School”. 1974. At that time he was known as Bill Dafoe, last name pronounced as in the the 1975 video. His father was a doctor.
It's funny. Whenever someone talks about celebrities they want to meet, no one ever says Willem Dafoe, yet he seems so approachable and down to Earth. Contrast that with all the narcissistic celebrities that everyone loves and wants to meet.
Why would you waste a wish on someone who's already approachable? Meet someone who doesn't want to talk to you and force it out of them.
He's one of my most favorite actor because he really kills it whenever he performs
"You're awful Conan" - How am I awful? "Inviting me to the show... Exposing my last name... You just want to make fun of me..."
"YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I'VE SACRIFICED?"

Such a polite and humble guy. Hollywood needs more such people.
Willem Dafoe is hands down one of the best actors ever to walk this planet.
Young Willem Dafoe looks like a deepfake of a kid's body with adult Dafoe's face.
Truth
it wasnt a deepfake?
Willjäm Däyfoh.

Then dont let the sun go down on him
@@manasprabhanshdeepsingh4712 you said the best post
Nice try
And when he likes you, he’s Willem Dafriend
oh man! his smile wins over my heart all the time. He sounds so genuine. 'Say it like you mean it' type of dialogue delivery so lovely and heart warming to watch.
I like Willem Dafoe because he's one of the best actors ever. In the 80s and 90s you didn't have to look perfect to make it in good movies. One of my favorite Dafoe movies is To Live And Die in L.A.
He was something of a grammatically incorrect child himself
😂😂 👍🏻👍🏻
He will rectify certain inequities.
Incredible.
Are you aware how much relinquishment has he gone through!
It’s funny because Peter Parker actually said that not him but the camera was on him
If they ever make a Batman movie with an older Joker they should hire Willem. He'd be perfect.
Reason: laugh
My thoughts exactly, for a log time! His pointy chin is just like the Joker
Would be awesome if they do The Dark Knight Returns with the elders Bruce Wayne and Joker. Michael Keaton should come back as Bruce of course.
It's weird how they haven't, since Joker is actually supposed to be up in the years.
My man. I am so glad we're on the same page.
Dafoe is such a great actor and person. Just legendary.
This guy could play Strawberry Shortcake and I’d still be scared shitless of him.
So we’re gonna ignore how he called himself “William”
I think only you and I noticed this. What sorcery and witchcraft is this??
His name is actually William according to Wikipedia, I don't know how Willem came about though
Above me is correct, also, he has been using the name "Wilem" since he started his career or college(idk)
ItsAppleJuice I was looking all over for someone to have noticed this aswell!
Yes.
Dude seems like the complete opposite of the roles he's playing
Actors imma right
Except maybe SGT Elias in platoon
Except maybe Jesus
Willem Dafriend
@@francosolorzano1892 😂😂😂
100% commitment in everything he does. One of the best actors of the last several decades.
He's a treasure. Every interview he's in the best spirits.

I don't think he ano
Hey! Make sure to check out my new reaction for Led Zeppelin - Ramble On!
Ano onne-chan matteee!
@Ken Roberts so does con ano Brien translate to "with Butthole Brian" or "with Brian's Butthole"?

I don’t care what anyone says ever. His performance of goblin was so legendary.
Oh he did a awesome job!
He will always be Norman Osborn to me

"You know, I'm something of a Day-Foe myself."
0:07 that slimy green goblin chuckle.....
He's one of those actors who's looked like an old man even when he was a kid
The Steve Martin effect as I like to call it.
Lol lol yup like Clint Eastwood
Steve Buscemi too
Don Rickles to
Mel Brooks
He has the best Joker face
@Fire and Ice How is it overrated? The perfect villain archetype.
@Fire and Ice the best film to come out of 2019, so it's really not. Give us something better to watch... I've got time. I've been craving a superhero.. non superhero movie for a long time. Finally.
Plus he got gd joker voice
Yes he no doubt would be in the league of heath and Joaquin if given the chance to play the joker
He has more of a Goblin face.
He had kids now, so he is actually Willem Daddy. When he gets confused, he is Willem Dafuk. When he turn into convertible, he is Willem DaBaby. When there was a sandstorm, he is Willem Darude.
when he eats youghurt, he's Willem DaNone
You mean Willem Dadfoe

Also, he pronounced his name as “William” in that tape. Haha. I like the way he pronounces both his first & last names professionally better - memorable and makes him stand out.
One of a kind actor...please make more movies Willem Day-foe.
He should be the joker the face and the voice is perfect
Day-foe AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Fighter of the day man AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Ah yes, from the prestigious Day acting clan...much like Daniel Day-Lewis.

willem is dutch for william like juan is spanish for john
@@jasonsmith8300 Inside the actors studio, he said that his name is William but his grandmother called him Willem because of either an accent or a speech impediment (I can't remember exactly), so he stuck to it.
William, Liam, Willem, Wilhelm are all the same thing.
He smiling in entire clip but still looks like he planning a massacare at the same time. What a guy!
You are so right, every timestamp I move the red dot to, he is smiling like crazy lol
It makes sense since he plays villain roles (the foe….da foe….Dafoe lol)
Can´t believe this guy has never been The Joker.
True but he was a good goblin tho ( to me anyway) he could portray joker well based on his goblin performance
A lot of people haven’t been
I think this new batman movie would be our last chance to have him as the Joker, his friendship and duality with Robert would add so much to the dynamic and the current cast with Paul Dano, Zoe Kravitz, Jeffrey Wright and possibly Andy Serkis, my god it looks good, but with Willem it would be perfect!
I believe he would be fantastic, and it's about time we deserve a comic accurate Joker
YET
Young Willem Dafoe looks like a 70's Hard Rock Vocalist.
True lol
@burtonrules123 yeah he already got that raspy voice too
He probably rocked out to Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, ACDC, Motörhead…
kinda looks like the lead singer of buckcherry...or vice versa

*someone says his name wrong* Day-foe: "Misery, misery, misery, that's what you've chosen."

love your work very much thks a lot take care!!!!!!!!!!😊hi Conan
My aunt lived in Appleton, Wisconsin, where Willem Dafoe and his family is from. She always pronounced his last name Day-Foe (she called him "Billy Day-Foe"), which suggests to me that was the way his family usually pronounced their name. Unlike most stars, who change their entire name before becoming famous, I think Willem Dafoe just slightly changed how he pronounced it.
oh you think?
At the end of the interview, Willem dryly says, "Godspeed, Conan!" Then the Green Goblin glider impales Conan from behind. Willem smiles and says, "Don't tell Harry."
The blade that pierced Conan’s body came from his gilder.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
William has such a fabulous voice that goes so well with his body… truly a great actor
"FRUIT CAKE WRONG ANWSER", i cant this man always laid back funny🤣😂🤣🤣

Willem Dafoe in "The Boondock Saints" is one of my favorite acting roles of all time.
Agreed! I just saw that movie again for the 5th time the other night.
I remember sending him a fan mail! Writing how good of an actor and villain he is after seeing him in the first Spider man 2002. I wrote and sent the letter in 2004 something I remember. And out of nowhere he sends back a picture with autograph on it after like 4 years. I was so happy that time and shocked! By the way I sent the mail from my country Sweden
That's really cool! I would have been really excited too!

A lot of you are forgetting that he wasn’t well known back when Jack Nicholson got the part of the joker. To me Jack was a disaster he didn’t put all his effort to play the part.
His voice is so calming and soothing ☺️
