I body doubled for Anson on Dr. Strange 2, and he was super chill! I would definitely work with him again!

OH! He's Blackbolt!!! So. Did you get to wear the costume in full?!
Anson Mount is fantastic on Strange New Worlds. He is my favorite Trek captain since Patrick Stewart.

Eh let's stop the breaks. He's no Sisko.
Maybe it's just me but Mount would have made a great Batman. He's got the Bruce Wayne look, handsome, charming and mild mannered and can switch to menacing/ threatening in an instant.

Anson is a gift to us all.
It's crazy to me just how much we're finding out about behind the scenes stuff concerning Smallville and the actors who tested for both Clark and Lex! The what ifs are endless!
So wait... was Anson the guy that Michael talked about in his interview with James Gunn...?! lol 🤣

Okay, these are 3 guys who are good friends comparing war stories. Now all they need is a beer in the hand. This was cool to see. Anson you need to get both Tom and Michael on to ST: Strange New Worlds some how as guest stars for a couple of episodes. Make them either ex-Academy buddies or pure villains. It could work.

Tom is brilliant when playing villains, i really do wish he would play one in Trek
Long live Captain Pike! Even in a beep chair.
Anson Mount is awesome. I always think of Tully, my favorite indie movie of all time, when I see or hear about him, and then there the cover is right behind him. I'm a big Sam Rockwell fan too so seeing them together in Mr. Right was a treat. Anson played a great bad guy.
Wow. Love hearing these stories. Anson is amazing but the show would have never been the same. Rosey IS Lex 💯❤️.
I love him as Capt. Pike. Strange New Worlds is great Star Trek
I keep forgetting Anson was supposed to be a gunslinger railroad builder with a Southern accent, and seeing him speak in his normal voice is weird.

Watch Strange New Worlds. He's great.
I could honestly see Anson as Lex, but I don’t think he would be as good as Michael was.
I'm glad they decided to do this podcast.
He's been around for a long time. I'm glad he's getting some shine on Star Trek
He was intense on that SmallVille episode !
“You talking about Sorority Girls?” 😂
Mr. Bohannon, the best.
OMG Just look at Anson Mount!!!!
It really speaks well of Anson that he didn't want to say for the record that he had been offered the role of Lex Luthor before Michael was. Classy guy.
Anson! You are epic!
In all these years I have seen Anson Mount act on screen, I have NEVER seen him smile or laugh ever! This is so strange! lol He should do it more often. Now I know I said I want to see him smile more often but I would love to see him play Doctor Doom or Batman. lol

He smiles a good deal on Strange New Worlds - and he is indeed very good at it.
He could of played Superman, Capt.Marvel/Shazam or Bruce Wayne/Batman.
So glad to hear the Poolhaul Junkies reference. A GOAT tier movie.
yeah I could definitely see Anson as a older version of lex luthor😮 I always thought after Smallville we would have got a present and lex luthor revive episode because the final season was always mentioning the future like 2020 something where lex was president... Even the guy Zachary from Shazam who played Chuck from the show Chuck even said to this so many shows like Smallville that is no longer making episodes they could always come back for some streaming event.. that's why I wouldn't be surprised if a few years from now we'll see like some Grant Gustin flash revive episode because even Grant Gustin said at an interview with entertainment weekly that he wouldn't be surprised if he comes back as the flash someday.. he even said it too if he ever gets a phone call to come back as the flash either on a TV show or on a movie he would say yes
Anson is awesome , lovely man
Tully man, find it, watch it, love it.
I know it won't happen but I would love him to play Mr. Fantastic

Anson seems like a great bloke
That's kinda cool: there's an alternate universe where Anson Mount played Lex Luthor and voiced the Flash!🙃
Always had a crush on him 🤗☺️🙈
How did the room not explode? That's more than whispers
It's funny how his facial mannerisms and demeanor are so different from on ST:SNW but they still feel familiar. Not as if Pike was letting down his hair, but rather we are watching Pike's younger brother who just had a bong rip.
Sebastian Castellanos everyone!
Britt Reed. The Green Hornet.
Imainge a world where micheal was playing pike and Aston was playing Luther.
A son will always be my Cullen Bohannan from HELL ON WHEELS!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
okay answer this tom how did you not fall in love with the actress who played lana in real life?

Mount is lying thru his teeth. He was never offered the part, and you can tell he's full of shit. Watch Michaels interview with James Gunn and he all but confirms it. Although in Michaels recounting to Gunn he claimed he called him out, which he clearly doesn't do. This whole thing weird.
