I think the beauty of this roundtable is how all the actors left their egos behind and opened up to being vulnerable. Talking about their insecurities. And I think this was in part thanks to ke huy quan, who from the beginning set the tone for how the dynamic of the conversation was going to be. His humble and very down to earth way of telling about his life experience, made the atmosphere relaxed and made everyone feel in a safe space to talk not only about the success or situations inside the sets, but also about the fears and moments that influenced their life. Also the interviewer takes part of the reward for this incredible interview, because he was able to navigate topics that can be uncomfortable and delicate for people in a very open but yet respectful way. Bravo!

When Jeremy shared what his therapist said, I had the same reaction everyone in that room did…nothing but value. The drive to push everyone away that Austin spoke about as he dealt with grief and depression…thats whats ive been doing for years. It was important to hear that the difference is he always did one more even when he was full of doubt.

It’s so sad that we were ROBBED of Brendan and Ke for sooooo long! It’s sad but beautiful at the exact same time. I really hope they both catch fire again, after these roles. Because the world and Hollywood DESPERATELY needs more of all of these guys! Their hearts, love, empathy and humility! Rather than the shallow idiots who have ruined the industry. Would be amazing to see a few movies with all of these brilliant and beautiful people together! Edit: thanks for all the likes. Might be the most likes a comment of mine has gotten. I wouldn’t have even known, about all the likes had someone not commented on it!

Ke's advice at the end: when you have a dream and you doubt if you can ever accomplish it and when you can achieve your dream, he tells us to be patient. Your time will come. Look at Ke, though it took him 25 years to get where he is, he got his time now that he deserves. So helpful! Thank you, Ke.
I really loved the camaraderie, how supportive all of them were. Real admiration and respect. Even the body language... It's palpable the resilience in the room... I love all of them
At about 26 minutes, Ke starts speaking about his journey back into acting and the industry, and it is mesmerizing. At one point, a few minutes in, there is a shot showing ALL of the actors turning to him with full attention, completely rapt in his story, fully engaged and empathizing with his journey; his uncertainty, his nervousness, his doubts, etc. What a lovely demonstration of the depth of human stories, their poignancy, and importance. Thank you for showing this.

I think Ke has demonstrated his willingness to be vulnerable about the challenges in his career, and self-doubt that is so relatable, and that is inviting the roundtable (and everyone he's interviewed with) to lean into truly listening and empathizing. I can feel how much this means to Ke, so I'm rooting for him!
Brendan being here is sweet. And Colin being an intellectual and sharing his thoughts “expectation is a dangerous thing” is such an insightful thought provoking conversation from him. Everyone at this table is great. This is perhaps the best roundtable in a while.

@@CiviTac It wasn’t about his body. Look up what happened to Brendan Fraser man…he’s been through the ringer. Ex-wife drained his accounts. He was blacklisted afterwards and couldn’t get acting jobs anywhere. He tried to speak up about harassment, is why he was blacklisted. All of that during the time his wife was draining his bank accounts from every movie, stunt, and determination he’s ever had in his life. Hopefully now, he can heal and begin his new life the way he wants to. She didn’t “steal” the money, the courts allowed her to take almost all of it. California had very bad laws back then for men in his position, and he wasn’t properly protected from it happening either. The worst case scenario in a divorce, happened to him. Along with worst case scenario for his career as well. After that…there isn’t much left. That can really break you. However, there is probably much more to his story. I hope he gets his own film made about his life & career. It would be magnificent.

How great to see Ke again. As a kid of the 80’s I knew his voice instantly. I always wondered where he went and am so glad he’s back. Same goes for Brendan Fraser, I look forward to seeing what the future holds for them both.
Bringing this specific group of actors together is the perfect blend of people who are all in very different points in their career. Brendan and Ke are making a huge comeback into the industry, Austin and Jermey are breaking into the big leagues with some critical acclaim and Adam and Colin are making shifts with their style of acting. It's a beautiful thing that despite them being at different points they can still all relate through their craft.

I thinK Brendan had early success but was sick of it, and then had Injuries. They all like Austin it seems. He's being quiet and humble. But Austin is very grateful too. He worked very hard and elvis is so loved. His portrayal made me cry at times. I'm 73 and grew up watching elvis so I know. He deserves the Oscar but I think Colin will get it. He has done some great roles. This one in Banshees I'm not too impressed with. It will be for his body of work. Austin is the one who is like a rocket going up. It's like Leo was. His career is going to explode.
I was so grateful that each of the actors had plenty of time to tell their stories without being cut off like in most interviews. It had a very calm feeling about it that allowed each actor to think and respond with their deeper insights. Also they didn’t interrupt or talk over each other - they were very respectful of each other. I was very impressed with each of them - not focusing on ego - but trying to share their own journey.
Brenden, Ke and Collin are such delights to watch on screen and off screen. Loved the genuine conversation taking place. It's so sad we were deprived of their so many potential phenomenal performances just because opportunities in Hollywood were different back then (still is but lesser now). Loved to hear all these stories. The only roundtable I found was so warm and supportive after the one of Andrew Garfield, Dev Patel and Jeff Bridges. I hope to see more of all these actors in upcoming projects.
I've watched every single THR Roundtables and this is by far the most heartwarming and humble group I've ever seen. I hope Fraser and Ke Huy Quin keep getting amazing roles.
