Jeremy has no experience playing the talk show "game" and that makes this interview infinitely better. The guy has zero interest in giving gimmicky, cute answers to make the audience giggle and tweet. He responds to every question with loads of depth and thought, and you could see it influencing Stephen to sort of drop the comedy act for a bit and just engage Jeremy intellectually. Superb conversation.
He has a genuineness that we rarely see in hollywood these days, I’m absolutely enamored with how he carries himself during interviews like these. I hope he plans to do more soon. Jeremy strong is one of the most commendable and kind actors of our generation I truly hope he gets more recognition and roles soon.
I think he’s a great actor and I really liked him in succession. But I also think he’s a lot like his character in succession… First thing I noticed was how he walked out on the stage with his hands in his pocket. His body language screams socially awkward.
@@HH-gv8mx it’s because they are filming succession season 4 at the moment so he is probably trying to stay in character it’s kind of his method a lot of actors do it
I can see why our number one boy doesn't do these talk shows. He's too intelligent for most of these talk show hosts. His answers are so thoughtful that Stephen drops the gimmicky nature of the show and seeks to have a genuine conversation with him. One of the reasons why both these men are so great at what they do. Fantastic interview
Jeremy is kind and thoughtful. We should take his lead and be kind to one another. Look inwardly then out learning from the great philosophers, poets and writers❤
stephen was the best person to break jeremy into the talk show world. no one else has his level of emotional intelligence, empathy, and wit. jeremy would've been miserable if he had interviewed with jimmy fallon or jimmy kimmel, so it's a blessing we were able to see these two in such a vulnerable and deep conversation
Totally agree, what an excellent and thoughtful interview that was. He seems like a very genuine person, quite serious but with a keen wit and good sense of humour Reminds me a bit of a young Leonard Cohen. 👍
This started off as an interview but settled into a conversation that we had the pleasure to hear. I really enjoyed listening to Jeremy share his thoughts and heart! And I respect Stephen for showing honor to him during their time together.
And I would add that Stephen's skill and smarts at interviewing/engaging guests in conversation are what allowed Jeremy to agree to be on his show, wanting to promote the movie he feels strongly about, and also seeking to be "safe" w/ the interviewer. Only Stephen can do that, IMO. And Yes, well-done!
Jeremy is so inspiring, really. He's not afraid of silence, he fidgets, he stutters and he's ultimately honest. I have severe social anxiety and seeing someone being so unapologetically raw and "weird" still managing to show his brilliant intellect is so so inspiring. The way he's not afraid to show how uncomfortable and surprised he is with the unplanned questions is really inspiring too. I'm neurodivergent and often I struggle to express my concerns and struggles. He's so confident while expressing his insecurities. God! I love him so much!
His awkwardness is really appealing. Often stars come on these shows and they have a rhythm and patter, a facade. I get that it's necessary and that they are selling their brand but just seeing someone act like a real person who's slightly uncomfortable is relatable, refreshing.
Wow. Have we reached the stage where awkwardness is appealing? Listen, nerd may be appealing in a science fair or something. When a nerd comes to a talk show this travesty of an interview is what happens.
I've never seen Jeremy Strong in anything, but his reluctance to do the usual actor-y promotions had me intrigued. When he answered "either a hummingbird or a mote of dust in a bookstore," he made me an instantly dedicated fan! 😍
@@allthingswavy6420 same here! I'm not interested in watching Succession because I get enough of that kind of stuff from the news every day. But I will absolutely see his film! His honesty about being dedicated to the craft reminds me of how Adam Driver always redirects questions about himself toward what he does rather than who he is.
@@lb5368 respectfully, I also was apprehensive about watching succession because I assumed it was just all business and corporate corruption and at times it is that. However most of the screen time is absolutely captivating and heartbreaking family drama. It's a show about trying not to become your parents and failing, and hating and loving your family at the same time. It's just the best show I've ever seen besides maybe the sopranos. And of course Jeremy is the star of it all. Definitely worth a try.
Bring Jeremy back as often as humanly possible please. This may be the most intelligent late night show interview with an actor I've ever seen. Mood was different, and for the better. It was, like i said, intelligent. Giving this one to Jeremy. A pensive, profound sweet man, who set the tone for what these types of shows i wish could be. One guest, one hour - I'd watch that with people like him. But also kudos to Colbert for connecting with that brilliant cerebral energy of his, which we were lucky to catch a glimse of. Makes me want sit somewhere and have tea with him all day.
Not only is Jeremy so thoughtful and brilliant, but Stephen reminded me of why he’s the best talk show host out there. He doesn’t just laugh inanely like Fallon, he has thoughtful questions and real dialogue with his guests.
I feel like I was just included in a truly extraordinary moment of heart, intellect, and grace between two greats. Jeremy Strong is a fascinating person, so glad he decided to do the show. Wow that was really special…
It's true! It was very nice to see this interview, very intellectually enriching, I think it's something that doesn't happen much lately, I left knowing a poem by Emily Dickinson and looking for Marcel Proust's 30 questions
Wow! Absolutely fantastic interview!!What a wonderful human being. Incredibly intelligent, well spoken, and just pure individual. Very eloquent and passionate about his craft. Rare soul...
@@Crescendolls88 he seemed a little socially awkward. The first thing I noticed was how he walked out on the stage with his hands in his pocket. I think he’s actually a lot like his character in succession. His body language screams socially awkward.
I hardly ever watch interviews with actors, not because I don’t like actors, but because I am just not interested in the typical well rehearsed PR answers and the anecdote about being on the set… But this interview was shuffled into my playlist by RUclips and it was so worth it. What an incredible person.
thank you to Jeremy for being open and honest with his responses and thank you to Stephen for being wise enough to know how to handle this for someone like Jeremy 💖
Colbert is an educated actor. How lovely to share the moment of genuine surprise at them both knowing a Steppenwolf luminary. Stephen is great at identifying without trampling. Jeremy has suffered many blows in the press about his Method ways. Stephen offered him an opening for speaking about that vilified process with humility and care. Yay Stephen. Yay Jeremy.
Wow. I love Steven even more, if that’s possible, for intuitively making Jeremy, the talk show virgin, so comfortable. And the sweet look of kindness and appreciation on Steven’s face during some of Jeremy’s answers …. I get the sense these two incredibly thoughtful and intelligent men may soon be good friends, if they aren’t already. Best. Interview. Ever.
After watching this, I can't shake his feeling of "I want to be friends with this man". What a pleasure to listen to this interview. Plus, Kendall is most definitely my favorite character in Succession.
Jeremy Strong is great. It should also be noted that Stephen's ability as an interviewer to be on his guest's level, here and with other guests, is both rare and excellent.
This is Stephen at his best. Able to meet guests where they are, invest in who they are, and introduce us to them as people. We are all just people living in this world and I appreciate Mr. Strong for being willing to be on the show!
Now that he's doing interviews we know what we'd been missing out on, dang. what a great talk. I've grown as a human just in the past 15mins. Also thank you Jeremy, for relaying to Stephen how the majority of us feel about him doing the public a great service by telling the slanted truth and not just jokes
I LOVE Jeremy's interviews! It's delightful hearing his thoughts. He has a way with words and he's very knowledgeable. It's nice to listen to someone who's so genuine and passionate about their profession :)
This is one of the best conversations disguised as an interview i have ever seen. What an interesting person. And you can see that Stephen is a little star struck and really drawn towards him too. Just awesome!
@@michael-4k4000 i think you have absolutely misunderstood the show and what it's trying to say. First and foremost the show is about the cycle of abuse and generational trauma in a family. This family happens to be one of the richest and most powerful families and the show does a great job and a point of showing the emptiness and devastation that amount of money and power brings. Succession is truly one of the best shows I've ever watched.
What a great job, I thought this was going to be so awkward being Jeremy’s first interview and I was so pleased that Stephan handled it with care (I’m very protective of Jeremy Strong lol).
There were even a couple of times Stephen gently "coached" him a bit, maybe trying to alleviate Jeremy's seeming anxiety. A really great few minutes of interview. Genuinely.
It’s almost a “glitch in the matrix” moment for me watching this- I work in a bookshop in a regional town in Australia and I unpacked a single copy of The Proust Questionnaire today. I thought - who will be interested in this? Well. The universe converges. And I can’t wait for the next season of Succession.
What a great interview. Jeremy is just one of those guys who if asked the right question will just spill his heart and mind, and Stephan has the ability to recognize that
Reading all the comments, I can't remember an actor getting such universally positive responses. This was so good I'll no doubt be thinking of it come Succession time...
I agree. I feel like critics and journalists are sometimes overwhelmingly negative towards him but people absolutely love him. He has something very honest and appealing about him that’s rare, even in everyday life to find, let alone in Hollywood
It's SO refreshing to see an interview that's an actual interesting conversation and not some fluff piece to garner favor of the audience. His serious nature and distaste of "entertainment" forced Stephen to do a proper interview and the output has actual weight and value. You can't just bullshit your way through a conversation with Jeremy Strong - he's too smart. He brings gravitas without being a jerk. I'm glad he's doing a publicity tour so people can see the truth behind that New Yorker piece.
Man every time Jeremy speaks I just feel so grateful he's sharing his art with us. I hope he becomes more open to doing talk shows (as long as he's paired with a host with good questions and an open demeanor like Colbert)
It's so cool to see Stephen being comfortable with just having a genuine conversation about art with Jeremy instead of forcing in a cringey joke every 5 seconds. He actually respects his audience enough to stay engaged listening to a straight-up interesting dialogue.
I love listening to Jeremy show a side of acting that's very honest and heartfelt. Stephen quickly became comfortable as well and we got to see that other side to him as well. The artists who really love the art.
Protect Jeremy Strong ❤ He will definitely be cemented as one of our great actors alongside Hopkins, DeNiro, Hoffman, Streep, Hepburnc, etc. Beyond talented and sweetly inspiring.
Tell all the truth but tell it slant - Success in Circuit lies Too bright for our infirm Delight The Truth's superb surprise As Lightning to the Children eased With explanation kind The Truth must dazzle gradually Or every man be blind -
What a kind, genuine, deeply real soul. I love Jeremy Strong and am inspired by the authenticity and vulnerability he shows. I can’t wait to see more from him for years to come. He truly deserves the success he’s gotten after working his ass off for 25 years and staying true to himself along the way.
Kudos to Stephen & the producers for being accommodating and deciding to basically do a podcast instead of the typical tv show format. Doing otherwise would restrict Jeremy from being himself and best representing the movie (which, as Jeremy said, was his main purpose behind doing this interview). Looks like Jeremy had a great time and it resulted in one of the best talk show interviews I've ever seen.
That profile was awful. I didn't think we'd ever get another interview out of him again after that. I think the fact that people Jeremy admires like De Niro and Cox like talking to Colbert helped him feel comfortable here.
Michael Schulman exposed such a vile side of himself by publishing a piece of that nature with that timing. That's some god-awful karma. May the payback be powerful -- to his heart and reputation.
@@zeynepdenizgundogan1140 pretty much a smear-job on jeremy's method by distorting and twisting statements made by co-stars or people who've worked with him at some point in time
He's such a passionate nerd who loves his job, he's grateful and doesn't take things for granted. He's not mocking others for their own ways so just let him do his own thing.
I love Jeremy so much! I hope he does more interviews and things of this nature! There's something so attractive and genuine about him and his awkward quirkiness
Someone in another comment here described it as him "being confident about his insecurities" or something to that effect, and I thought it was brilliantly and accurately put
His answer to what moment Is Succession meeting is so poignant and I love that he had the balls to be that honest I feel like a lot of people would not give such an unfiltered answer
What a fabulous interview. Stephen is a master of his craft. It was like watching guys hanging out, buzzing out on stuff each other is into and really enjoying their conversation. I now see Jeremy Strong in a completely different light. I'd love to hear these two chatting about everything and anything for hours 😊
This interview was such a pleasure to watch/listen to... two brilliant, literate, perceptive men with poets' hearts communicating in a deep and thoughtful way. Loved it from start to finish. A nourishing break from the usual late-night fluff.
For the first time a Late Night Talk show felt like a Hollywood Reporter roundtable discussion, only difference being Strong carried it alone. What an actor and what a brilliant person.
Fascinating interview and I'm grateful for the extended cut. NOTE: I have never seen the shows in question or knew of this actor beforehand. These extended cuts stand on their own merit. Just "EXTENDED" drew me in to watch.
I came here from a reddit post saying he was awkward in this interview. But he came across as an intelligent, serious, introspective, and genuine person.
I love him as an actor. The calmness and heartbreaking authenticity he brings to his roles. Completely understated. He is such a lovely and patient interview. I loved this. Thank you Stephen! You are one of the best interviewer going today. ❤
Such a profoundly-intelligent interview. Any aspiring actor could learn much here. What a gift to witness the exchange between these two brilliant and thoughtful men.
I think he’s a great actor and I really liked him in succession. But I also think he’s a lot like his character in succession… First thing I noticed was how he walked out on the stage with his hands in his pocket. His body language screams socially awkward. Is that why he doesn’t do many interviews?
One of the best actors interview in late night show.... He is kind, intelligent and so charismatic... The way he asks Colbert some questions back like *what do u wanna be if u came back* .... U can tell by his face he genuinely having a conversation and it is not a gimmick to impress the audience
Jeremy. Your authenticity is a breath of fresh air. What a kind soul. A perfect match for the improvisational genius of Colbert. Loved this interview. 🤍🤍

What a great interview. Jeremy is so well read, truly a pleasure listening to him.
I'll watch anything and everything I can with Jeremy in it. Bloody brilliant!
One of the best interviews I’ve ever seen - informative, elegant and smart smart smart. Thank you!
Good for him, clearly not his "thing". Very genuine.
I love listening to Jeremy show a side of acting that's very honest and heartfelt. Stephen quickly became comfortable as well and we got to see that other side to him as well. The artists who really love the art.
Protect Jeremy Strong ❤
He will definitely be cemented as one of our great actors alongside Hopkins, DeNiro, Hoffman, Streep, Hepburnc, etc. Beyond talented and sweetly inspiring.
So proud of our boy for this
Can’t believe this is his first talk show interview like this! Stephen as always did a wonderful job with it, best host by far.
That Emily Dickinson poem continues, and it's so amazing. It ends: "The truth must dazzle gradually, or every man be blind."
I love all Jeremy's references in this interview, listening to him speak is very enriching
It's one of my favorites of hers.
Tell all the truth but tell it slant -
Success in Circuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth's superb surprise
As Lightning to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind -
Beautiful
What a kind, genuine, deeply real soul. I love Jeremy Strong and am inspired by the authenticity and vulnerability he shows. I can’t wait to see more from him for years to come. He truly deserves the success he’s gotten after working his ass off for 25 years and staying true to himself along the way.
Yup ❤️
Jeremy is an exceptional actor, definitely the best actor of this generation. So charismatic and well spoken too! Future oscar winner!
Extraordinary interview. Thank you, Stephen and thank you Jeremy for sharing yourself.
Stephen won my heart with this one. Glad it was him who interviewed Jeremy.
Kudos to Stephen & the producers for being accommodating and deciding to basically do a podcast instead of the typical tv show format. Doing otherwise would restrict Jeremy from being himself and best representing the movie (which, as Jeremy said, was his main purpose behind doing this interview). Looks like Jeremy had a great time and it resulted in one of the best talk show interviews I've ever seen.
he is perfect. never felt this way about any other celebrity, the new yorker profile was a dirty setup that im glad he didnt fall into.
That profile was awful. I didn't think we'd ever get another interview out of him again after that. I think the fact that people Jeremy admires like De Niro and Cox like talking to Colbert helped him feel comfortable here.
Michael Schulman exposed such a vile side of himself by publishing a piece of that nature with that timing. That's some god-awful karma. May the payback be powerful -- to his heart and reputation.
whats that profile is about?
@@zeynepdenizgundogan1140 pretty much a smear-job on jeremy's method by distorting and twisting statements made by co-stars or people who've worked with him at some point in time
Jeremy answers with his whole heart its amazing to watch
Such a lovely down to earth guy. His humble demeanor and thoughtful honesty.. What a great interview.
I have to watch this cos this is Jeremy’s first talk show interview, finally!
He was on Corden but we ignore that
one of the best interviews of an actor of all time, he is ocean deep with his love & vision for his craft
Jeremy is a perfect person to interview! So insightful
When Jeremy talks I can feel the wheels and cogs in my head turning squeakily. I love it.
He's such a passionate nerd who loves his job, he's grateful and doesn't take things for granted. He's not mocking others for their own ways so just let him do his own thing.
I love Jeremy so much! I hope he does more interviews and things of this nature! There's something so attractive and genuine about him and his awkward quirkiness
Someone in another comment here described it as him "being confident about his insecurities" or something to that effect, and I thought it was brilliantly and accurately put
love the comedy monologue, but i wish we'd see more long and serious interviews like this.
What a riveting interview! Such a thoughtful and genuine man, and Stephen asked Jeremy just the right questions to allow him to shine.
JEREMY STRONG THE MAN THAT YOU ARE
His answer to what moment Is Succession meeting is so poignant and I love that he had the balls to be that honest I feel like a lot of people would not give such an unfiltered answer
What a fabulous interview. Stephen is a master of his craft. It was like watching guys hanging out, buzzing out on stuff each other is into and really enjoying their conversation.
I now see Jeremy Strong in a completely different light.
I'd love to hear these two chatting about everything and anything for hours 😊
ok now i understand how promotion works bc now I'm gonna see this movie and now I'm a Jeremy strong fan. this interview was immaculate.
For real, I have never even heard of Armageddon time before but now I want to jump into it just from this.
This interview was such a pleasure to watch/listen to... two brilliant, literate, perceptive men with poets' hearts communicating in a deep and thoughtful way. Loved it from start to finish. A nourishing break from the usual late-night fluff.
For the first time a Late Night Talk show felt like a Hollywood Reporter roundtable discussion, only difference being Strong carried it alone. What an actor and what a brilliant person.
Fascinating interview and I'm grateful for the extended cut. NOTE: I have never seen the shows in question or knew of this actor beforehand. These extended cuts stand on their own merit. Just "EXTENDED" drew me in to watch.
I came here from a reddit post saying he was awkward in this interview. But he came across as an intelligent, serious, introspective, and genuine person.
I love him as an actor. The calmness and heartbreaking authenticity he brings to his roles. Completely understated. He is such a lovely and patient interview. I loved this. Thank you Stephen! You are one of the best interviewer going today. ❤
Such a profoundly-intelligent interview. Any aspiring actor could learn much here. What a gift to witness the exchange between these two brilliant and thoughtful men.
he has this gentle charisma, it's really pleasant listening to him talk, wish he did more interviews but glad we have this one.
Wow I’m shocked to see Jeremy actually do an in-person talk show 😂
I think he’s a great actor and I really liked him in succession. But I also think he’s a lot like his character in succession… First thing I noticed was how he walked out on the stage with his hands in his pocket. His body language screams socially awkward. Is that why he doesn’t do many interviews?
He chose the right talk-show host who would respect the type of person he is, not that he's the award-winning actor of a big hit show.
One of the best actors interview in late night show.... He is kind, intelligent and so charismatic... The way he asks Colbert some questions back like *what do u wanna be if u came back* .... U can tell by his face he genuinely having a conversation and it is not a gimmick to impress the audience
Jeremy is right about you Steven. I literally can feel when your off for vacation or whatever. Your humor is a beacon of hope.
Jeremy. Your authenticity is a breath of fresh air. What a kind soul. A perfect match for the improvisational genius of Colbert. Loved this interview. 🤍🤍
