It's honestly so weird to me that someone who was "Tumblr" famous when I was in high school is now regular famous in her own right, and not as some kind of internet personality. But a legit comedian/presenter, and a great Taskmaster contestant.
Giancarlo Esposito will play Spamton in A Deltarune Movie with co-stars Jack Black (Kris), Susie Waterfall Deltarune Gaster (Susie) Jason Momoa (Ralsei), Sydney Sweeney (Toriel), Jenna Ortega (Dess), Jim Carrey (Tenna) and Patrick Warburton (Sans)
Aw dang, imagine assuming that for 30 years to get emoji'd by a stranger. Glad I didn't tell him that in person. Although I bet he would have been polite and had heard it before.
Nobody knows where he came from. There is complete lack of a paper trail in Chile before 1986. The poor record-keeping, corruption, and human rights abuses of Augusto Pinochet's military dictatorship makes it impossible to find any real identity he might have.
Dude was struggling constantly as an actor UP until he got the role in Breaking Bad. He was literally considering arranging his own murder to provide for his family because he just wasn't making it as an actor. That show changed his entire life. That's conviction. Hell yes he loves his job, he risked everything to get where he is.
Laypeople tend to assume an actor lands one decent role (Buggin', Do The Right Thing) and they're set for life when he probably earned far less than 100k (which doesn't last too many years).
And he only got a return role on Breaking Bad because he developed an intense, massive backstory for "owner of a chicken shop" and managed to pique the curiosity of the producers into making him a main antagonist.
Which he, of course, then managed to spin into that villain role that he enjoys and does so god damn well.
I love how he keeps on the serious emotionless evil businessman persona in most of these, it feels like people are getting photos with the actual Gus Fring
it's sad that he's been pigeonholed into playing corrupt businessmen, and villains in general, after Breaking Bad, because he's such a sweet guy and such a good actor, and i feel like he needs more non villainous roles
Funny that you reference a The Gentlemen appearance, as there is now a Gentlemen series on netflix that has Gianocarlo in it playing a very rich business man
His comedic sides are genuinely underrated. He voiced Lex Luthor (sure another evil business man but it's a parody) in the Harley Quinn show and the whole Lex Luthor as a lookmaxxing alpha male influencer thing was so funny. They had to change the voice actor in the last season unfortunately due to scheduling issues and that's a real shame because Giancarlo Esposito really managed to voice him in a really goofy comedic way that the new voice actor couldn't imo
He's such a nice person irl. He's always super nice and gracious to fans and reporters too. It's funny because he plays a stone cold psycho or killer so damn well lol
I absolutely loved every moment of him as Moff Gideon in Mando, totally stole every scene.
I’ve met him! He is a phenomenal actor but put so much out for his fans. Hearing him shout “Long live the empire” for a kid was one of my happiest moments
This reminds me that my old man negative trait is thinking people in fur suits are cringe and sad.
I know they're not and they have more fun in a suit then I'll have for the rest of my life. But I can't get it through my old man brain that fur suits are okay.
Maybe as an IT guy I'm in a fur suit closet and I haven't realized it yet.
Can someone explain the "kind named finger" thing to me? The joke seems off, like should it be
"Alright class, today we're gonna finger paint" cut to "Kid named paint"?
Fucked up joke; in the same vein as the Animaniac's "finger prints" vs "finger Prince". A pun.
