![THE END OF RESIDENT EVIL? [RE9 Ep 3/3]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/3Xt3gTCHJXk/mqdefault.jpg)
First time I've seen one actor promote 4 movies at the same time. Legend stuff.
And the fact he not only has done all of this work but received high praise for all of these films. Amazing . He’s a phenomenon.
Not to mention being so effortlessly good-looking. Tough hand of cards to be dealt, eh? Hehe. But yeah, Nicholas Hoult is incredible and is truly amassing such a stellar and diverse body of work. An actor's dream. ❤
Almost like they heard him crying about The Batman and felt sorry for him. He's lucky he didn't get all those auditions he was feeling bad about not getting because he is now in some brilliant stuff.
Five actually: Nosferatu, Superman, The Order, Juror #2, and The Menu. Six if you count reminiscing a bit about Fury Road. 😆 The man's been busy!
Yeah, how many actors have ever had this happen? I look forward to his continued career !
I don’t think I’ve ever seen an actor promote 4-5 films at once….. Nosferatu, The Order, Superman, Juror #2 …. Like this is INSANE
This is a _really_ diverse body of work, too! I'm impressed.
He WORKS
I didn't even realize how many great films he's been in recently until this interview. Good for him.
About time he counts himself lucky for not getting all those auditions he talks about
He has the rare gift of being an exceptional lead actor, but he's also a stellar character actor. This provides a wider range of roles he can carry with confidence. This puts him into the rare category of actors who stay active, and relevant until the day they die.
Promoting 4 movies in one sitting, and all of them were incredibly different to each other. The range this man has, what a legend.
It is so great to see this man doing so many projects and getting so much more attention.
He is a great actor!
He’s a chameleon-like character actor trapped in a leading man’s body. From the absolute chaotic silliness of Peter III, to the hypnotic menace of white supremacist Bob Matthews, to Gothic horror in Nosferatu, not to mention upcoming Lex Luthor, the dude does not play it safe by any means. Love risk-taking actors, especially when they can rely on their looks but choose not to.
Nicolas hoult is so underrated as an actor.
Handsome and humble guy. I wish him all the success and the best for him 😻❤
dude is lowkey Staring in 3 of the best films of 2024 which all came out during the last 1-2 months and also he is the main villain in for what a lot of people consider their most anticipated movie of 2025
'Warm Bodies' is a favorite film ❤❤❤
mine too 😊
Same❤❤.
Same
Good zomcom movie.
mine too
Huzzah! 🥂
Somehow watching the little boy from About A Boy all grown up and thriving is healing something inside of me
he's killing it this year (but he always has, tbh)
He and Kidman have been everywhere lately, it's crazy how much they're working, in film and tv/streaming (especially given how the industry generally treats women over 50).
Good for both of them.
Just saw him Renfield, honestly was a real fun film. Kudos to both Hoult and Cage
The Menu is one of the greatest films I have ever seen. Mr. Holt was amazing in it.
Yes! No one ever mentions this movie.
The order is wonderful
@AsmaaTaha-f4p Haven't seen it but I will!
i love him so much imagine being this beautiful and talented
This guy is doing all kinds of movies. Very talented guy.
I'm very glad they talked about Superman.
so happy for his success.
Such a precious young man, and so freaking talented! I just love him…❤
Hes a sweet heart.
Huzzah!
He will forever be the little boy from About a Boy for me.
What a great interview! I could listen to Seth and Nicholas talk for a full hour, given how much Nicholas has done -- he really has an incredible body of work already for how young he is. I especially loved the space Seth gave him to talk about Clint Eastwood, because you could really tell that working with him was ~an experience~ for Nicholas, and he needed a moment to gather his thoughts.
Other interviewers would have steamrollered him and either tried to finish his sentence for him or prompted him to talk about something else, but Seth just patiently waited that 30 seconds extra, and it makes the quality of the interview so much higher.
Pay Nolan whatever he wants and cast Nicholas Hoult as James Bond.
I did not know Nicholas was in Nosferatu. I wonder how he feels going from a comedy film of Renfield, to a serious vampire movie. It was probably fun to play both aspects.
That trousers! Nice style!
Nicholas Hoult!!! Ohhh, what a lovely day!!!!!!!
i still can not believe that this awkward boy in about a boy turned into this heart throb!
Justice for “baldilocks”
How is he not more talked about?! The space is taken up by the likes of Chalamet, Keoghan, and guys from Challengers. More Nicholas Hoult, please.
He's having a renaissance moment! I see him occupying the same space as Andrew Garfield in that they've always been around doing amazing projects but the mainstream audience forgot about them as soon as they aged out of the teenage heartthrob romance lead role (TASM for Andrew, Warm Bodies for Nicholas), but their fans have been there for them from day one and we're seeing more and more people recognise their work and craft now as they keep getting cast in critically acclaimed films!
Agree!!
He was incredible in The Great.
Hilarious in The Great. Huzzah.
Still mad they cancelled The Great.
he is eating up rn
Nicholas is so underrated. He's such an amazing actor, very understated but very efficient and evocative. I didn't hear him say anything in the Superman trailer but what I've seen has been PERFECT. Nosferatu looks so intriguing too.
@blackbird5634I wouldn’t call him a new star though. A young star, but not new, considering his breakout role was About A Boy.
Nicholas Hoult "underrated"? Are you just trotting out the current lazy RUclips buzzword, or have you been living under a stone for the last twenty years?🙄
Underrated? Seriously dude? Do you, and those who've 'liked' your weird comment, really understand the meaning of the word?
Fabulous actor. Loved him in Noseferatu.
❤
Nicholas, your career is On Fire right now, and I couldn't be happier for you! LOVED the character you created for The Great, and I can't wait to see you as Lex Luthor and, of course, in Nosferatu 😆
Nicolas like Aaron Taylor Johnson are so talented actors with wide range but underrated.😊
Nick is so great in all of his performance!
love this beautiful man
Congratulations on all the success!
I CANT wait to see Nosferatu ❤
Same same 🖤
It looks SCARY!
Me to I’m glad they are making vampires scary and pure evil again
Love this man!! He's a very talented and versatile actor, an absolute chameleon on screen in the best way! Always excited to see what he's up to next and so thrilled we're getting a lot from him this year. Thanks for having him in the show, great interviews as always, Seth 👌
nicholas is so fun to listen to!
I feel like the great is SO underrated. Such a good show
Should be in theaters 🎉🎉
What a year man
Come back, Seth!
Wasn’t he Renfield in the movie with Nicholas Cage as Dracula?
Yes he was and that was a fun movie !
He was on Skins the British version! Cool show!
So are there other actors or is it just Hoult doing every job?
First time I have heard about the order is through this interview I wish I had seen it in theaters
Interesting trousers
DOOFUS MCDORKPANTS!
This guy rocks he’s great in Nosferatu and Juror #2!! Stoked to see The Order
God, he is PRECIOUS! Inside and out. I can tell he has a good heart. ❤️
He is beautiful and talented of course He was so gorgeous in Single man
That’s where I first saw him! ❤
Brilliant actor ! 💖
the og but I've only ever seen him in skins lol
Love him!!!!
Come on - you know you are the next James Bond! Greg Davies as your dad, yes?!
He is great
Great actor
Huzzah! (The Great). I always imagine, even Tom cruise wants him to play Tom Cruise. Fantastic.
Man Ross wishes 😅😂
why is juror #2 not in theaters? it got good reviews.
Hoult is perfectly fine in Juror #2, but the film is just plain silly.
A good interview, was it your last one?
How come he was born in Berkshire and Ricky Gervais in Reading, 10 miles apart, and their accents are so fricken different?
❤❤❤❤ so handsome n cute 😊
Bond?
Can't wait to see him play Lex. Hope he does better job than Jesse Eisenberg. I also hope the new Superman is good.
The guys witty and fck'N charming
Lex Luthor
I can’t get over Marcus from about a boy growing up to be hot.
I’m a lifelong Bears fan, season ticket holder, and I just want to say Nosferatu looks pretty incredible. Can’t wait to see it!
So would you say you’re a fan of DA VAMPIRES?
Yon Rugg Stalks Hank McCoy
Let Nicholas rest!
ruclips.net/video/Af7fNVCFpe4/video.htmlsi=EBkDDfByQaA_tfNI....... ? 🤔🤨🧐
I been looking forward to seeing this one this film is the highly anticipated film I been waiting to see and I think everyone else have been waiting to see this one and also I was fan of the original Nosferatu and I can’t wait to see Bill Skarsgard as Nosferatu which will be amazing and can’t wait to see Nicholas Hoult as well in it
Say "and" again
@RyanKellar-q8lBill Skarsgard is playing Nosferatu
Pretty sure I love hot white guys and vampire movies. I am all in. Alexander Skarsgard in True Blood was epic. So is Bill as Nosferatu. Holy god these brothers are talented.
He’s gorgeous and sweet
He is JUST PLAIN GORGEOUS!! Sadly......I know he is straight (ya know...married....kids I believe.....good for him)......but this Daddy is simply saying....HE IS JUST PLAIN GORGEOUS!!!! A TRUE Sag......he doesn't even need to try......he just has it.
NOPE! Leather trousers/pants/jeans *are ALWAYS a fashion faux pas!* LOL!
IM GONNA CALL IT - HE SHOULD PLAY LUIGI MANGIONE IN THE INEVITABLE DRAMATIZATION
I'm not sure I'm really fully understanding the loose-fitting leather pants, but OK
New York in winter.
@pendorran cuz that's what he's doing-- bundling up 😂
Not Interested with AA meetings with you. Have Fun Jude my sister Nina bestfriend girlfriend in high school.
Nice interview with nicholas hoult. Hes becaming versatile actor with all these different roles. May he continue. Seth Meyers did a good job goo interviewing his guest.

Gotta watch this one right after watching Renfield with Nicolas Cage.
Who would have expected this from the Boy in About a Boy?
