@Trevon Womack To me, acting is acting. You don't need to be able to relate, you just need to be convincing. An argument can be made for limited opportunities but it doesn't bother me for the most part.
@@xeffary7390 Not sure about his accent on The Office, but he fooled the crew and director with his accent to land the job on The Wire. The casting director told him to pretend to be an American actor through the auditioning process, and they bought it.
lmao, love that movie. He became friends with Jack Black and even has a small part in "Tenacious D: The pick of Destiny" as the frat kid that throws the empty beer can at Kyle as he's leaving the house party.
he's acted pretty consistently actually if you check out his IMDB. They're just not huge blockbuster stuff. It's not like we see Tom Hanks recently much either.
@@Vendrix86 he has acted a lot but I was leaning more towards no major rolls really. And Tom has done several massive films recently. Just off the top of my head without looking anything up. He had Sully, News of the World, The Post, the Mr. Rodgers movie and Toy Story 4 all in the last 5 years. Plus he played a Captian in whatever movie he helped launch Apple TV with. Not the Philips one. Tom has been in a ton of things recently.
The fact is they get picked while they are still relatively unknown because they are cheaper than established American actors, but they are also fresh out of one of best acting schools in the world so that gives them a leg up on young American actors.
That what I been saying. Here in America is basketball, hockey, football etc. kids in UK 🇬🇧 is soccer and acting. Most American actors have to become famous doing something else and then get into acting but kids in 🇬🇧 they start early
@@pedrojello8983 I disagree, most do not have to start famous from doing something else. A lot of our actors didn't. Nowadays there are people who started in other careers and just ended up doing acting later but most of the time they just fell into acting, it wasn't even something they wanted to do until they tried it and liked it or was paid good to do apart.
Colin Hanks the director in the skit. Is the 43 year old son of the great Tom Hanks. I mention age because its hard to believe. Im used to Tom being that age and younger. 🙂
I think y'all have looked over the satire of this skit. Hollywood seems infatuated with Brits playing American roles. It's like they are awestruck that they can pull it off. Yet American actors may actually have backgrounds similar to the roles, and are able to perform the role well, but have been overlooked because of "the awe" of Brits.
I say we Americans should just start playing roles meant for the British just for sake of equality. I mean I know the British are just as infatuated with Americans who can do their accent well just as we are with them. There has to be a segment of British directors just like there are here in the states who have no problem with giving a role to any actor who can play the role well, regardless of nationality.
@@justicedavis5705 Hollywood brands itself as the centre of the worlds entertainment industry so it makes sense for people outside to go there to work. On the other hand, there are so few big British productions that it would be weird for an American to travel to Britain for a role... Especially seeing as there are so few roles to compete for here and Americans have been infamous for doing terrible British accents from Van Dyke to Don Cheadle to Keanu Reeves to Anne Hathaway (who said she begged them not to make her do it), so they'll be less willing to take the chance.
@@charleneraymond4036 I get that, my comment was meant to be more of a joke. I know it is unlikely that an American actor would take that chance when there are so many opportiunities to work out here. However, as this skit shows it does seem that Hollywood has a weird infatuation with any British actor that can do a pull off an average American accent when honestly a good American accent isn't that hard to pick up compared to others once you've heard it a few times. I mean even American comedians have built careers off of impersonating other Americans, our accents are easy even for other Americans to mimick so I just thought it would be refreshing to see the concept turned around.
Kate Winslet gets extra points for Mare of Easttown because she’s specifically doing a Philly accent which is accurate to the location where the show takes place as opposed to a generic American accent. There have been American actors who haven’t bothered to get it right in Philadelphia area productions including Rocky.
This feels like a poke at Idris after he got his part in The Wire. Dominic West was also a British actor in The Wire that had a main part for most of the series too.
Key had the idea to write this skit because his wife is a dialect/accent coach for actors and there were many Brits coming to their house to learn how to do American accents, and he would get angry about that since foreign actors were taking jobs from American actors. In an American movie, they typically cast UK actors for characters with UK accents, but you never hear of UK productions casting American actors to play characters with UK accents.
That’s mostly due to the fact Americans are terrible with British accents, the amount of films I’ve watched and can’t get through the full thing because the accent was so bad. British ppl and ppl in general can do an American accent it’s pretty simple.
@Oceanfive That's not necessarily always the case. It's just that native speakers of each have a more trained ear to catch the flaws than others. Even the most excellent of British actors from Hopkins (Welsh) to Elba (English) have slipped up on the subtleties of certain pronunciations when playing American roles. Further, just as is the case in the UK, and frankly, everywhere, there isn't just one American accent. There are regional dialects and accents too. Someone from Brooklyn doesn't talk exactly like someone from Queens. There are similarities, but many differences too. Someone from Chicago sounds nothing like someone from Florida. Of course, then there's proper American English (however of an oxymoron that sounds) just as there's proper British English.
@@oceanfive5 maybe on a generic sort of American accent, but I’ve yet to see one British actor that can pull off any US Southern accent. Every last one of them comes off sounding hokey and cartoonish, like a bad Foghorn Leghorn impression. As for American actors who do British well, Alan Tudyk sounded like he belonged right alongside Paul Bettany and Mark Addy in A Knight’s Tale. Hugh Grant thought Renee Zellweger was really British when they were filming Bridget Jones’ Diary, Johnny Depp sounds believable as Jack Sparrow, RDJ sounded authentic as Sherlock Holmes…
@@vicentesalasii1480 Very true. Now, Tom Wilkinson did such a great job as Carmine Falconi in Batman Begins, I didn’t even know he wasn’t American. He nailed that NY Italian-American mobsteraccent. However, I’ve yet to witness a UK actor who can do a Southern US accent. Those accents are very diverse as well, but in every case I’ve seen of a UK actor playing a character from the Southern US, it sounds like a goofy caricature or hodge-podge of different affectations from different regions that aren’t typical of the region their character is from. Matthew McConaughey (TX) sounds different from Bill Clinton (AR), who sounds different from Theo Von (LA), who sounds different from my buddy Joe (WV). Daniel Craig is a mighty fine actor, but his Southern accent is a tragic car-wreck of Kentucky moonshiner, North Georgia plantation owner, and old Alabama lawyer.
Thanks for reacting to this -- and yes, I think there are some very fine British actors, like Tom Hardy (he was brilliant in 2015's "Legend" where he plays the Kray twins). And you mentioned Kate Winslet, and I'd totally agree. She said that she had a really hard time doing an American accent initially, in "Titanic."
Idris Elba is one of my favorite actors. His accent surprised me when I watched "Luther." Great show but I have to watch it with subtitles for the whole cast.
the Main cast of Preacher are all british and two of them (Dominic Cooper and Ruth Negga) speak with a thick southern accent like Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes in The walking Dead. I love it
Some actors just fit the role perfectly like the role was made specifically for them. Like Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House in the titular show. I could never imagine anyone else in the role, he played it so perfectly, and I didn’t even know he was actually British until past season 3. In my mind, no one else can ever be Dr.House, not even another A list Hollywood star. I think there’s just iconic roles like that, which fits the actor. Likewise this could be said with a lot of other famous characters filled by American actors. Captain Jack Sparrow is indisputably such a great character because of Johnny Depp. And Clint Eastwood will always be the equivalent of the rugged old western Americana and synonymous with cowboy western classics. I think just some fill the role better than others despite one’s nationality. Acting is different in that there is aspects of one’s appearance that affects our perception of the character. If it was only based on one’s experiences how great someone acted then every writer should be a great actor too, right?
I am from America I love watching you guys's videos I watch everything you guys put out LOL love you guys's accent and I would love to come to the UK one day I would have to say I'm your guys do biggest fans maybe one of these days I'll get to meet you guys
This is one of my fav K&P sketches because it immediately reminded me of Dominic West and Idris Elba on The Wire. I'm pretty sure K&P drew some inspiration from that.
Christian Bale as Batman.... american accent..... American Psycho.... american accent. As far as I know, he plays a British character/magician in The Prestige, and portrays Ben Miles in Le Mans 66/Ford v Ferrari with his normal voice/British accent
He didn’t Fu#k his accent… His accent was spot on guys… he meant to say “me mum” cause he was referencing his Leeds upbringing with his mum… but wanted to play at Oxford, therefore his preppy pompous accent he has was conditioned by his theatre education! Hahaha so he was spot on!
My favorite show Chicago Fire - Chief Boden played by Eamonn Walker who is English, perfect for that role. Also from Chicago Fire Jesse Spencer who is an Aussie, played Lt. Casey is another awesome actor. Watch the trifecta - Chicago Fire, Chicago Med, Chicago PD - you'll won't be disappointed.
Re-watching your Key and Peele vids and am just binging Eli Stone with one of my fav actors, Jonny Lee Miller playing an American and thought of this sketch. Show is great btw. Underrated.
As someone from a colonised country myself, I get the Americans hang up colonial mentality with the Brits. That the Brits are smarter, classier and overall better.😂 Hilarious how we all fought for freedom and revolution but still in awe of the people from the "motherland".😂
I am from America and I love everything you guys put out I watch every single video I would have to say I'm one of your guys his biggest fans keep it up guys
Lol. Watch every Key and Peele episode...it's the best comedy we ever made in the US. You will die laughing lol. Seriously, watch them all. It gives a snapshot into us Americans.
I have to say that there are few British actors who can do a standard American accent well. Kate Winslet is the only one I can think of. It usually comes out in words like "anything", where they neglect the "ee" sound.
Mate you all have to react to Kid Nation, it was an absolute crazy th show where 40 kids are thrown into the Midwest and are forced to self govern and practice trickle-down economics
You should do a reaction video on Slap Fight. Check out Wolverine he is amazing, he stands strong and has compassion for his aponent but no mercy. These Fighters are fearless. They deliver and recive knock out blows over and over until the end. BRUTAL!!!!!!!!!
It kinda weirds me out when I find out one of my favorite TV show actors is British when they're playing an American. One of the shows I started watching and absolutely love is Breeders. I think that show is hilarious. It's an American-British comedy.
I've never seen that one before. And it didn't end like I thought it would. I thought Peele was going to start speaking with a fake British accent and then everybody would start saying what a phenomenal actor he is. That would have been funnier.
I say 68% Brits get the roles but understand European been acting since they came out the womb . American (me) do sports Brit act. That's their tv. , From Shakespeare until now. More acting school like we have club sports
Fun fact but Jordan Peele directed Get Out and is the one who cast British actor Daniel Kaluuya in the role that got him Oscar nominated 😅
fun fact that white guy is collin hanks, son of tom hanks
@Trevon Womack To me, acting is acting. You don't need to be able to relate, you just need to be convincing. An argument can be made for limited opportunities but it doesn't bother me for the most part.
I think this sketch is based after stringer bell
@@dayra6425 Yup
Awful movie
Reminds me of Idris Elba in, “The Wire”. I was so shocked to find out he was British.
I haven't gotten around to watching The Wire yet but if he was doing an american accent I've seen him do it in the Office too and it was pretty bad
@@xeffary7390 Not sure about his accent on The Office, but he fooled the crew and director with his accent to land the job on The Wire. The casting director told him to pretend to be an American actor through the auditioning process, and they bought it.
@@xeffary7390 Idris is fantastic in the wire! The role of Stringer, he killed it.

I knew he looked familiar!! At least it isn't Chet
@@Jedicake lol you beat me to it. He would've started rapping for sure lol
Micheal Rockefeller* not "Tom Hanks"
Hopefully he isn’t a sack of shite his dad is.

It's always crazy to me that's Tom Hanks' son. I wish Colin got more roles. Been a fan since his Orange County days.
lmao, love that movie. He became friends with Jack Black and even has a small part in "Tenacious D: The pick of Destiny" as the frat kid that throws the empty beer can at Kyle as he's leaving the house party.
The Good Guys was one of my favorite shows and was cancelled too soon.
he's acted pretty consistently actually if you check out his IMDB. They're just not huge blockbuster stuff. It's not like we see Tom Hanks recently much either.
@@Vendrix86 he has acted a lot but I was leaning more towards no major rolls really. And Tom has done several massive films recently. Just off the top of my head without looking anything up. He had Sully, News of the World, The Post, the Mr. Rodgers movie and Toy Story 4 all in the last 5 years. Plus he played a Captian in whatever movie he helped launch Apple TV with. Not the Philips one. Tom has been in a ton of things recently.
He was great in Fargo.

yes and no loool we knwo there's a lot of cheap actors in the US god knows unknown actors in L.A are cheap asf. it's a mix of talent and etc.
Acting school does not make an actor as much as talent. Arguably, the most talented actors in the world are almost all American.

Andy Lincoln on the Walking Dead...he is the best.
I thought the punchline was that the new yorker would start miming a british accent and he gets nod of all.
