Willem Dafoe is quietly having one of the greatest careers in film history. What a body of work. Seems like a great guy too.
Indeed. I was thinking that very thing while watching this. From The Last Temptation to Platoon to AntiChrist....wow.
Cameron Williams spot on ....
A hideously underrated Dafoe performance is in Animal Factory.
@@thebatman4279 it's my personal favourite actually
@@respect6451 Ooh nice :)
Willem's hair has no business being that good.
also best cheekbones of any actor
@MorbidManMusic That's probably true, but in his case i'm sure it's not vanity but a normal thing that all actors do
@MorbidManMusic So ? i'd get that kind of quality of hair done too if i had the money for it.
@MorbidManMusic Someone is going to loose their hair soon.
Does the guy ever age
Willem Dafoe has been criminally underrated for too long, I hope he finally gets all the awards and praise he so rightfully deserves.
Audham EnTha i do agree. Mr. Dafoe has been long in the industry and i am longing to see him get the role of his life.
I love your comment, it's so fucking true.
He deserved some kind of award for boondocks saints 👍
@Audham~ I do agree, but Dafoe is the kinda guy who does not care much about "awards" he truly is so grass roots in the theatrical arts in honing his craft with others in his field to inspire that I am sure is where his heart speak is at, not awards.
no he is not underrated, people have no idea about what the word means lol, and awards are for losers that need validation from others to feel good.
Whomever thought of this pairing, give them a raise
I truly never believed I would see this. Two of my favourite actors. I'm drooling with excitement....maybe I should go check that out
They should be in a film together
i thought of it, you can send money to my paypal please
No I did it. Send money to me.
WHOEVER
Willem Dafoe is one of those actors where you would watch the movie just because he's in it
lol, exactly
Facts. There was a live-action of Deathnote that he did a voiceover. I only watched it because he was in it, lol
Holy shit Wolverine and the Green Goblin in the same room
Big Poppa Calm down mate it was joke
Big Poppa BTW what is bad about comic books movies? Also yeah these two guys have been other things Hugh was great in Les Miserables and William Defoe he has been too many movies to count
Hugh Jackman will always be Wolverine, and Dafoe was the green goblin in the first Spider man. Deal with it, bitch!
@Big Poppa really something petty to get upset over.
Amazing right? Wolverine my fav X-men character, don’t make him mad. William Dafoe omg so many accolades
Willem Dafoe is a very underrated actor. Whether the movie is great or not, this guy always play his part well.
no he is not underrated, people have no idea about what the word means lol
Why is everyone saying he's underrated, he really isn't, does he need a stupid shiny award for people to recognise him? No
@@Real_SkyRipper He was underrated, not as mainstream, a few years ago. But the last few movies have made people remember he is one of the top talents in the biz.
Everyone should go find a Dafoe movie you haven't watched that looks interesting to you and check it out. He's done so much more good work than most people know. Literally the man has made something for everyone.
@@Real_SkyRipper a better word for most of RUclips's posted comments would actually be "underappreciated"
I would be so happy to see Willem win an Oscar. Long overdue.
How he didn't win for Best Supporting Actor in Platoon I will never know.
@@chaddskinner215 I loved him in platoon. Maybe my favorite actor. Anything he's in he turns it into a good movie if not better.
I’m still very salty he wasn’t even nominated for his performance in The Lighthouse
He is above that ...
Believe there's one role Dafoe yet to play that becomes his masterpiece which gets him the gong.
Hugh is such a wonderful listener! You can tell he is really there to listen and learn. What a great quality to have, especially in this day and age.
Yeah I've been noticing that about him as well. Its one of the things I most like about him. A good quality for social development, and as an actor as well of course. Never thought to mention it. Good comment.
Both are great listeners... but I feel william is much better at it... for me listening is not saying yeah, yeah...., is to listen, and after it ..participate with something meaningfull and I realised that William is capable to do that.... not many people can do it... and I think people in general dont realise about it... A good listene for me r is the one that follows your story with empathy not just someone that listens.... but I feel people prefer the last one!
@@sergio446 On the pure basis of being a good listener, Jackman takes it for me. If you want to have a person who's good at conversation then Dafoe is the the choice for sure! However its evident that Hugh is not only hearing the words being said, he's internalizing then by asking for clarification. Something like that tells me that the person that I'm talking to is really trying to understand what I have to say.
Very true..He's an incredible listener.
I don’t think either is better, I think they both just happen to be great examples of different styles of listening well, and really the only 2 styles if you think about it. Not surprised with the level of quality between these two actors though
Both of them are charming as fuck
Logan and Osborn
When I read your comment I couldn't help but hear Tony Montanas voice.
I like the way they weren't trying to compete with one another to show off, as some male actors do. No egos, just a great exchange.
cheekyboy5000 exactly! Well put!
The one with Kyle MacLachlan and David Harbour was just them geeking out over each other for 30 minutes
Just hear to read the Wolverine Green Goblin comments & listen to 2 of my fav actors
You truly are everywhere man ahahah
damn Idk if he's doing anything special but willem's hair is amazing for his age man
Liam McCarthy that hair tho. Check out the wave from on his bangs
i was thinking this exact thing lol
I guess he had a good hair to start with then he had just a few transplants to keep front full. which is completely normal for an actor to do and has nothing to do with vanity. If i'm wrong he's just blessed
Probably the two nicest guys working in hollywood today interviewing each other? Fuck. Yes.
God, Dafoe’s peaceful demeanor makes every interview he’s in something special.
I'm just waiting for William Dafoe to play the Joker
Jair Robalino we all are
Keep waiting lol
Fuck yeah
Willems voice is so close to mark hamills joker it would be so fitting. God i just wish it will come true....
I hate how many times the remake the Joker but I wouldn't be mad at all if it was William Dafoe he would crush it effortlessly
They'd be good co-stars. Someone cast them together in something.
WalterLiddy holy shit walter it's so weird to find you outside of a panel show setting
put em in a buddy cop movie
wolverine vs green goblin lool
But, I'd be quite happy if they'd just let them both talk for about 2 or more hours, film it, and let us watch.
WalterLiddy Walking Dead: Wolverine vs Green Goblin
I adore watching two people so knowledgable in their profession just talking to each other, sharing thoughts and listening to each other’s experiences and ideas on whatever subject.
Two lovely people and amazing actors. Jackman deserves awards recognition for "Logan" in which he was terrific. Also glad that Willem Dafoe is getting strong buzz for "The Florida Project". Hope he wins the Oscar.
Woodrowtracy he deserves it. Also deserves it for the many films he wasn’t recognized for.
I agree,Dafoe deserves more recognition... but i havent seen Florida project and if he really is better than Sam rockwell in Three billboards,who blew my mind,I guess he would deserve the Oscar.
Yeah I agree I really wish he wins it he deserves it
this was an absolute delight! the conversation was effortless and sincere. both seemed so genuine and like they actually wanted to talk to each other.
Willem’s outfit has me compelled to confess my sins to him.
Mr. Dafoe is such a beautiful gift to this world. Instead of listening to an actor, I feel like I'm listening to a life coach or a spiritual adviser. He is so amazing!
Two top-level stage actors who received their popularity through film.
Both William Dafoe's and Hugh Jackman's hair are beautiful. That swept style is so beautiful on both and I'm upset men now don't do it as much.
Yeah sure.... , every male has to have a personal hair styler
Jesus calm down she's just staying her preference. You would probably moan if someone berated you for stating your preferences in females.
Yeah, sure.....you need a personal hair styler to do a simple hairstyle on short hair.
What an ironic comment, considering the fact that women are constantly valued solely for their looks and men constantly feel the need to make comments and state their preferences.
Oh honey, we WOULD if grown men all had a medical hair team like these blokes. Good on em too.
Willem Dafoe was incredible in
The Florida Project. So compassionate. He should have won an Oscar for that role. Extraordinary acting!
💜
Hearing Hugh say that he cried at the end of Logan broke me. Me too Hugh, me too.
I love the way Hugh shows his intrest in others' conversations , that seems so authintic and real h is a great man
Btw, in an interview or two, he's talked about that he and his wife started doing meditation about 20 years ago. TM. Transcendental Meditation. He's said it's made such a huge difference in his life. Seinfeld and a couple of other actors also do it. As a result, I just googled it, and I'm looking into it. (For some reason, I think his ability to really listen to others is tied into this which is why I mention it).
Right
an interview full of chemistry
Wilhem Defoe is without a doubt one of the best “underrated” actors around. His work is phenomenal!
Jackman looks really young for his age.
Willems voice is so fuckin nice to hear , would be so awesome to have a chat with this guy
I wish Willem Dafoe had a podcast or something. I can listen to him for hours.
Dafoe just has that claim lowkey psycho swagger to him lol.
charming serial killer lol
GREAT description of him. If he read it, I have no doubt but that he'd be delighted by it.
Have you seen boondock saints? He’s not psycho in it but close in a good guy way
The black color comes off so well in this video, just look at Hugh Jackman's attire.
Pissy fuckboy !
@@jsmithers. potatoes
Hugh is such a great listener
It was refreshing to hear the production of The Florida Project got to know the hotel residents and included them in the film. That the seemingly vast gulf between these two worlds was closed, for even a moment, is heartening.
Florida Project may not necessarily be a film for everyone's taste but Dafoe's performance is just perfection - hope lots of people go see it for that reason.
Cagerage King: So true!
Actors on Actors is my favorite series ever. I love just listening to these charming people have such cool conversations.
I JUST discovered it (where have I been ????) and I'm in LOVE ! I've been binge-watching for the past two days !
Willem Dafoe seriously needs to be casted as a Arkham series Joker in a movie before he gets too old. It's perfect casting.
Eten met Ciano sorry mean dafoe is vulko new movie aquaman
I"M FEEL OLD
in a alternate universe he is joker and hugh is batman
This pairing was beyond wholesome. They truly understood each other and were bouncing off one other's energy. I found myself writing down a lot of what Willem said... it just hit my soul. He is very poetic, and it shows in his work.
You just cannot not in LOVE with Hugh Jackman.. What an amazing human being!
Honestly, some people look good with dyed hair. Hugh’s is such a distinguished color, and how it meshes with his skin tone. And Dafoe’s is cool too. Great conversation. They come off as decent humans.
From what I see and hear from people that have bumped into BOTH of these gentlemen and have spoken to them, they are the TWO most nicest guys in Hollywood! They have a shed load of time and appreciation for their fans and have no problems autographing, taking photos, talking etc.
I love em both and both of their lists of movies are epic!
Defoe crafts Acting alchemically. In each experience, each film, he facilitates his roles into a catalyst for growth, his characters develop through him in film and more importantly as a human being. That’s a great gift, true grace, it’s Spiritual. To watch both these actors work is inspirational & often emotionally elevating. Actors who are both inspiring people, truly devoted to their trade, craft and impassioned by their audiences. Im thankful to be one in that graced audience.
I would love to see Hugh Jackman and Dafoe act together in a scene, that would be fantastic.
What a wonderful conversation, let's get a movie with these two actors !!
this interview just made me genuinely smile the whole time through. both seem just so likable.
Two of the greatest actors of our age.
What sweet guys! Really enjoyed their comradery in this.
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.
Best combination of people!
Willem Dafoe from my home state of Wisconsin! Guy has best but creepiest voice, eternally sounds like Norman Osborn.
Michael B that's disrespectful
Thank God for you, Peter!
Too bad he always trashes us
Great Actors
Awesome Interview
Perfect Chemistry
Fun fact: I was in a movie once with Willem Dafoe called "Victory" (i had a very small role as a mid 19th century military sergeant) - Not so fun fact: I've never been able to find the movie, so i have no idea if it was even ever released, let alone see if they kept me in it.
Just had to throw that out, not that it's of any relevance :)
beatz04 - just checked on IMDb. Apparently the movie was released in 1996. I didn’t see a character with the description you described but that doesn’t necessarily mean anything. It’s listed as having the disc available on Amazon.
Did you talk to him
I'm sorry, did he say 17 years? I can't be that old! I still remember being in the theater when X-men premiered. The room was so packed, people were sitting on the floor.
A bromance is blossoming
Charming actors with great range that shows in many of their works. The Greatest showman definitely showed Jackman's musical chops. The fact that they stated about action reminds me that Willem Dafoe always did his own stunts in his action movies.
Two of my favourite actors in the same room. Never realised that they worked well together. Please do something together in the future
Damn I wish Hugh really did a cameo in spiderman all those years ago. These two are great and I love that they both wanted to be gene kelly
Seeing the comic book movie OGs talk like this I nice. Nice to see that they both respect comics. There are still some pretentious people who scoff at movies based on comics, and that will never make sense.
A good film is a good film, period. Doesn't matter if it's animated, in color, is set in space, or stars a dog. This was wonderful.
Seeing them together is so nostalgic since they're one of the reasons why comic book movies are alive. Will never forget the day in the theatre that I saw the Green Goblin getting impaled. They both deserve some recognition this year. I mean their performances in both of their films are top notch. I do not say this lightly, both deserved Oscar nominations.
Comic books movies are not real movies!
Starts a dog? All films starting a dog suck ass
Starts a dog? your seeing things that aren't there.
all movies are real movies.
I love the interaction between these 2 actors who shows passions in art in their own ways and sharing their wisdom and lessons and love for each other genuinely. Willem Dafoe is so underrated and humble and just so wise...
this is such a great matchup, theyre both so thoughtful and well spoken and you can tell they both really care about what each other is saying
why do i have a crush on william dafoe ? i cant be the only one !
threeVs17 you aren’t the only one lmao
Like...since I was 10.
Hes definitely got appeal. The personality definitely helps.
Hes soft spoken and seems very genuine. Im attracted to him as well.
Oh, I find him very attractive, almost magnetic. Charming and likeable, with great charisma and a brilliant smile. He's got light in him.
That was an amazing interview. I actually watched it twice just to take it all in. This series has been great this might be my favorite one. Love Dafoe & Hugh Jackman might just be the most charming man alive.
i love how genuinely interested hugh jackman looks throughout this whole interview
Hands down best interview ever. Greatness comes from humility shown by two amazing performers
This video is Legendary status with these two.
'this is the last one' - hugh jackman
2024...
I just want to have a conversation with Hugh Jackman, he seems like an amazing listener and a great conversation man. I love him
Thanks my super fan. Where are you from
When Dafoe says, “Pleasure, really.” You know he means it. These two wonderfully accomplished and talented craftsmen were engaged. I wish they’d explored the terrain of camp in movies-they’re both very adept at it.
WOW, Green Goblin and Wolverine in one video? EPICNESS OVERLOAD!! Hugh Jackman is timelessly dashing and Willem Dafoe is criminally underrated, talk about the ultimate dynamic duo indeed!!
This is one of my favourites. Their personalities mix so well - something that doesn't always happen.
Defoe is a complete class act, I can’t stop watching his interviews. Completely authentic and his insight is incredible you tell he has a different type of understanding for the craft. What a stand out in such a humble nature.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
And look at that....both of them come back to their characters.
That conversation flew by.
Great dialogue!
I loved this beautiful conversation between these two intellectual minds & charming men !!!! just gorgeous !!!!!
Logan, was a heart wrenchingly perfect ending.
Easily two of the greatest actors to do an interview together, talking about the passion they have for their craft. Love this ❤
What a combination!
These guys are so damn good as actors and genuinely seem like great people, I wish nothing but great success for both. Hopefully Oscar wins in the near future for both of them. 🤞
I want more. This ended way too soon. That conversation was one of the deepest between two actors and I think we owe it to Willem Dafoe.
Get you a man that listens to you the way Hugh is gravitated towards Willem.
Dang I'm so excited to see these two talk, but I haven't 'The Florida Project' yet!!! Going to do that asap then come back to this
The chemistry here; bravo guys really enjoyed this!
Sometimes these conversations are pure gold.
Both Hugh and Dafoe look so good here.
I just discovered this Actors on Actors thing... it's pretty awesome! The nice thing is that they really understand each other's perspective more than what you'd typically see on a talk show or something similar.
This video made me love hugh Jackman even more. You can tell he was a big fan of the Florida project. Just finished watching the movie and it floored me
I love the warmth, real-ness and mutual respect between these two wonderful actors. They say don't meet your heroes, but this conversation makes me feel I would love to sit with either of these gentlemen over a good meal and a good wine, chew the fat and learn from them. Thank you Variety for creating this pairing. An inspired choice.
This is what we need to see more of. People being interviewed by their peers.
These two need to make a movie together.
One of the best one to one In Variety s I've seen.
wish I were the cameraman. These two actors have never come up short for their audience.
Watching this one year later - this was probably the time Dafoe filmed "At eternity's gate" he has the styling he had in a movie.
A must watch. Loved the conversation. Two professional actors talking about their lives and the future of their career's. A big thank you two for bringing some of the best performances in the film industry. I will forever be grateful for Hugh... I am going to miss you for your portrayal of the wolverine... it's gonna be hard for the next actor who gets cast as the wolverine to portray as you have done. Best of luck to you both.
I now have the biggest crush on Willem Dafoe! 😁 goes to show he’s really a great actor because he’s so far from the characters he played.
Willem Dafoe's whistle hehe Have watched a few of his interviews. So enjoyable. Deep but not pretentious. Dafoe is a soulful, soulful man
The first time I ever saw Willem Dafoe was in The Boondock Saints. His performance was a masterpiece and I've been hooked on his films ever since.
Incredible actors! Amazing to see their surprisingly similar outlooks on their craft.
