I have never seen a man who could look and act so mesmerizing yet terrifying at the same time. He gives his roles such a classy yet mysterious nuance. Love him.
It's like says, the less he does the more terrifying his character is. Also, like many of the best villains, he seems to be genuinely nice and friendly in real life.
I agree. I remember the first time I really noticed him, which was The Usual Suspects. It was a supporting role but he definitely stood out to me. He's only got better since then.
I absolutely adore this man. I used to be scared of him because of how good his performance was in Breaking Bad, I figured he would be really intimidating in real life. But every interview and fan interaction I've ever seen with Giancarlo he is so warm and kind. He is one of those actors who can draw me to a project I'm not otherwise interested in because I just HAVE to see him act more. Please Hollywood, someone find more parts for this man.
I just love these older, articulate, quite soft-spoken actors that ooze such charisma on screen without being overbearing, like him, Gary Oldman and Christoph Waltz.
If he gets into script writing- he's going to put together an absolutely amazing product with extremely well written characters. I NEED him to get into that lol.
Met him at Megacon last year. Such a genuine real actor. Extremely friendly, loves chewing gum, and goes out of his way to everyone that came to his table to make interaction special. Brilliant man, need more people like him in Hollywood.
Every soon-to-be-villain actor in a TV show or movie needs to sit down with Giancarlo and have a long chat about what makes a character so interesting. This man has nailed down the art of stoic antagonism: no loud shouting, physical intimidation, or murdering, but just speaking. Incredible.
I was about to comment on how good Giancarlo is, but I struggled to put up the right words to justify his excellence. If anyone asks me how good of an actor he is, I will say this statement.
What an actor, truly. I know it's not exactly a TV show or Movie but Far Cry 6 was so unbelievably good, and he brought the character to life with MoCap and his insane talent.
Oscars mean nothing. He's happy in the theater and amazing shows that are artistically valuable. Oscars or other American awards are absolute or objective. I don't think many artists care for it.
He plays the unflinching, genius, boss perfectly. Love that he continues to accept those roles as his portrayals of these key roles brings everything together and maintains suspense heightening everyone else's performances.
I’m glad he talked about BB Gus and BCS Gus. It would be easy to just try and save time by grouping them together but they really are different characters that both deserve attention. Any actor that can play the same part in 2 different ways is genius. Giancarlo is a phenomenal performer.
Giancarlo is very obviously the best kind of person to play a villain. But the villains he plays all have an interesting perspective and he conveys it in a formidable way. Beautiful.
Giancarlo and Chrisoph Waltz in my opinion are very similar especially when playing villains. I think he needs to be in a Tarantino movie at some point.
He plays three of the greatest modern villiains/antagonists in the span of ten years, some simultaneously, the man is a powerhouse and one of the greatest actors alive.
Amazing actor. Can fit into any role I've seen him in and play it flawlessly. Currently watching him in Godfather of Harlem and he steals almost any scene he is in.
It gives me such joy to see Mr. Buggin' Out himself getting his just due. His characters in "Do the Right Thing" and "Fresh" and "Nothing to Lose" will forever be etched in my memory.
4:49 I love this scene, perfectly displays the “stage direction” concept he was talking about, Walter makes a request which Gus is happy to fulfill, so he takes the cup, but before the “transaction” is completed, Walter adds in a caveat, one which Mr. Fring did not have to accept, so he hesitates, then, as if granting Walter his five minute request, completes the transaction without denying the caveat
Part of his style is very straightforward: he is equally willing to be kind and stab you in the eye, and him making us wait to know which will happen is the hot fudge he drizzles on each antagonistic character he plays.
That scene in the elevator where he taps his fingers is so subtly genius. His character is of unshakeable fortitude, yet that smallest of tics gives the viewer a glimpse into a very rare moment of Gus' uncertainty. Brilliant
Such a cerebral actor, whom I hadn't known to be such a calculating individual, exploring his own range, and also, how best to allow his fellow actors, to have such terrific opportunities to react to thoughtful performances, not considered. Love his enthusiasm. Bravo.
Really glad we have actors like this that continuously try to improve and bring the most entertaining performance. We have to many actors that just show up for a check and basically play the same character. Like will Ferrell and Adam Sandler type stuff. Giancarlo kind of reminds me of like a better Robert Downey Jr
@@kslo6179 With the proliferation of so many productions on the go in the past 15 yrs or so, it's indeed an amazing feat of acting, to stand out. We're drowning in growing levels of content, and Giancario, is a welcome life preserver. This really helps in deciding what to watch, as we just gravitate to the shows that attract these professionals, who themselves, gravitate toward great stories and characters.
He plays his characters so grounded in reality. With any other actor these villans would be more over the top, but Giancarlo makes them seem so realistic.
Amazing actor. Had hoped they would have talked about "Fresh," very underrated movie and Giancarlo as Esteban is one of the most intense characters ever.
I remember seeing an "alignment grid", as you find in many TTRPGs, where they mapped one of Giancarlo's characters he's played in each of the nine boxes. Such a fantastic range of acting skills. Even a really strong, memorable role like Gus Fring hasn't pigeonholed him. Such a talented, but also very humble and down-to-earth person.
It’s so refreshing seein how passionate he is!! You can also tell how much thought he puts into his characters and how he’s going to deliver the best possible performance ever
His characters looks mundane on the surface but upon close inspection they are dangerous. He is so good of an actor and sometimes I root for his character even if he is the villain. I love to see him act more, in a series preferably.
I was literally watching his performances and was wondering if he ever talked about his role in Do the Right Thing and I tried to search for it just to find this gem pop up in the midst of my curiousity. Thanks GQ.
I think I've seen that Mandalorian episode only twice, but his delivery of the line "You have something I want" has stuck in my mind, and I find myself muttering it to myself with the same cadence. It's so cool to hear him say it's one of his favourites as well, haha.
It’s crazy how he looked so completely different and sounded completely different in The Usual Suspects. Rewatched it the other day and saw his name in the intro credits and I had to keep doing a double take when he was on screen and second guessed myself on whether or not it was him the first time he showed up.
I love the way how Walter’s persistence in having Gus confess the truth to him in the one scene leads to him finally shifting his tone and admitting what Walt wants to hear
HOW could you leave out his role as Esteban in Fresh?????!!!!! He stole every scene. Overall a highly underrated movie.I just assumed he was dominican for years and was shocked when I found out he wasn't lol.
His characters are great because they all carry themselves in a dignified way while also being some of the most the most ruthless people ever. Something about it is just so satisfying
Giancarlo Esposito makes playing the villain look fun!! Awesome actor, he takes it to another level & I still think his role as Big Brother Almighty in "School Daze" was his best role.
One of his most underrated performances was as Jack Baer in The Usual Suspects. Although remembering him as Buggin in Do The Right Thing, it was his role in Bryan Singer’s neo-noir thriller that really caught my attention - and he wasn’t even one of the main characters. That’s how good he was, and still is, as an actor.
That was awesome when he cracked up when he was talking about scaring people as Gus. Knows exactly what he's doing to everyone and is having a great time doing it. He's definitely one of my favorite actors.
Such an epic actor. The way he uses subtlety and micro expressions and silence just takes his roles to a different level. I never leave comments on youtube but i felt i had to
Giancarlo is an amazing actor! I did a scene with him in a movie back in 2004. He was on point, well executed, and captures your attention. He is also a very gracious, complimenting, and self-effacing. It was a pleasure doing the scene with him and getting to know him a bit that evening. Definitely a fan.
Shocker of the century was the fact that Buggin Out was buggin out and he’s Italian himself. You look at the credits and see the character is played by somebody named Giancarlo Esposito and you’re like WTF.
I think this is the first time I've heard Esposito talk with his natural voice/accent. Whenever he speaks a line in character in this video, spins me out how different the character persona is to his own.

Ever since School Daze.
