"I thank your mom." "And yours." This was such a brilliant pairing.

“she gave me the liberty to breathe, really” has me in TEARS. the convo about their mothers, gorgeous.

The part where they were talking about their mothers had me in tears. “What do I do with all of this love,” by Colman and Jacob saying that his mom’s “being” and the way she treated others was her artistry… just beautiful.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen two men openly engage in such a tender wholesome way, possibly ever, the fact we’re now normalising (& they feel completely comfortable doing so) this type of intimacy especially between men warms my heart. I’m so obsessed with platonic love & this embodies exactly what I love about it.

I hope Colman Domingo gets more lead roles. He's such a talented actor!

I have never clicked on an Actors on Actors video so fast..

Coleman Domingo is completely profound. What a spirit.

"yea Sam told to us to basically forget the first season ever happened" the fans: we know

Favorite combo to date. No pretense. Two actors genuinely engaged in each other’s artistry and humanity.

Colman Domingo gives me total Jedi Master vibes I feel like I’m watching him talk to his padawan.

jacob describing his experience shooting the last scene of Priscilla and crying while saying “they killed this boy” absolutely WRECKED me. what a special artist. loved this conversation so much.

people went hating on jacob bc of what he said about the kissing booth movies, but in the first sentence when he talks about demanding roles and being the actor he always dreamed, you can see what he always wanted to say, not like hating on those movies, just talking about his personal dreams and aspirations

I hope this series continues forever. These interviews are so special and seeing actors talk with each other about the love and respect of their craft with another person who understands it is so beautiful.

I don't know how to explain it, but their voices really blended together and the conversation was so mature and witty...love it

Colman got this regal air. He comes off classy and well put together

i love coleman domingo SO much. he’s such a talented actor with a really beautiful/authentic journey to get where he is today. I’m so happy he’s finally getting the recognition he deserves. I didn’t realize sam had written Ali specifically for him, but it makes so much sense why he shines so much in the role.

Listening to Jacob Elordi really surprised me in a good way. He's an artist. The more I listen to him, the more it makes sense why he's the breakout star from Euphoria.

Sad to see this pairing has so many less views than others, I understand they're not as big as other actors featured in this but my god, what a beautiful conversation these two had. However decided to pair them up had an excellent vision because the way these two men connected and opened up to each other and the audience was beautiful to see.

Most ppl don't realize how great an actor Colman Domingo is. This guy literally transforms into the character you never see him as the actor but that character he is playing just amazing.

Jacob Elordi makes me feel like I should be paying money to even look at him I cannot believe he remains as humble as he is

I teared up when Colman started talking about his mother and how she was the drive behind everything he does; her love, how he uses it and puts it into everything he does. Ugh. 😩

A lot of these videos are about smothering the other actor with praise as if they've never been recognized, but this is the only one that's not cringey and insecure. They are truly listening to each other and heeding what their moms taught them. I feel the respect they have for each other, and the regard they have for their profession. Watching this is a gift.❤

I have a feeling that Jacob is gonna have a great career and gets to play interesting, complex characters

Their chemistry is incredible. Pair them up in a buddy comedy/drama and I’d be sat in that theater opening night.

Colman has such a soothing voice I feel like I’m gonna fall asleep even though what he’s saying is interesting

9:00 ”I love Brisbane” ”😒😏why?” HAHAHAHA

Colman is an unprecedented talent across the board and his precision of language is moving, man. But I also feel like Elordi deserves recognition for how well researched and thorough he looked into Domingo’s life to go deeper with this conversation

Two things. Colman is 54?!?!? I was wondering how much older he was than Jacob and I landed at around 40. How is that man 54, my mind is blown. Also, I want Jacob to read me bedtime stories. Not in a kinky way, I mean maybe that too, but his voice is so soothing Jesus help

when they announced this, people were like "they're not even in the same scene" "what the hell are they going to talk about" just complaining. I hated how people just jump into negative opinions. I'm happy to see these two together.

I could watch 10 hours of these two eloquent, kind, profound and curious men.

What a pleasant duo to watch their conversation flows perfectly☺️

they both just gained so much new found respect from me for how they situate themselves and how much devotion they put into their work

Colman has such warmth emulating from him. His voice is caring and soothing to the soul. Jacob is just starting his career but it looks like he has a firm grasp of who he is. Let's see where this goes.

Their voices are just so soothing and comforting. This interview was like a warm hug. Two creatives understanding and admiring each other.

Awnnn Jacob is fanboying. But honestly, this was a wholesome conversation. I love the little moment they had about Brisbane💗

This is a lovely conversation, like having a coffee moment with each other. Well done and 2 incredible performers but also human beings 👏🏼

i love this pairing so much!! colman is such an incredible talent and jacob is having such a meteoric rise right now, i can’t wait to see what they both create in the coming years

A big shout out to the person or people who set this up because man was it a good fit. The energy, personality and chemistry between both of them was such a joy to watch, didnt want it to end. You could tell they were both truly listening and learning from each other.

Both so talented. Their skill and passion can’t be denied. What a great conversation! I still cannot get over how well Jacob played an ass hole when he is actually so sweet. And his accents are SO ACCURATE.

Loved this interview. I couldn't be more proud of Jacob, his education & evolution, what a gem of a human being. Colman is absolutely incredible, down to earth and calm.

Loved what Domingo said about his mom.

This season is really one banger after another.

We just witnessed the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Love it.

god these men are so fucking charismatic and freaking fun to listen to... the intelligence, the empathy... ugh so good

I had the amazing opportunity to act alongside Colman Domingo and had learned so much in how he carried himself on set and discovering the scene. Forever grateful for the opportunity and learn by sharing the screen together!

Whoever is in charge of combining these duos needs a raise👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

He seems like a a really well spoken, kind person. Wish him nothing but continued success.

I find it easy to say Colman Domingo is a super amazing talent but that young man also has a great gift. It was such a great experience to see both of them relish in each other's talent and gifts.

There's something about Jacob he has this magnetic movie star aura. I wouldn't say he's usually even my type and Colman is so seasoned and also has this beautiful wise energy and also not too bad on the eyes either

This is the best actors on actors I’ve watched. They are not only so just emotionally mature, but just down right intelligent and inspiring people

One thing that stood out to me was “a teacher can change the course of your life” my high school vice principal told me I was going to be dead at 21 because I decided to stop complaining and crying and fight my bully. Well I’m 36 married, good career and love my kids. For som reason I never forgot about it and kept it with me. My wife is a soon to be psych NP and she always say i might be one of those ppl that uses negativity as a fuel

The mention of their mums made me think of mine. She’s so selfless and it’s OVERWHELMINGLY kind. I really do love her so much 😭😭😭😭😭😭 but that’s being said that’s why they say moms maketh a man. ❤❤❤❤❤

Colman is an ocean!! What a beautiful conversation! This is probably one of my favorite episodes of, “Actors and Actors”. Two beautiful generous and thoughtful men🥰

It is the upmost pleasure to see two people who are very passionate about their craft sit and articulate about the love of their craft. Thank you for this

This needed to be longer!!!!!! What a great conversation, the fact that both of them worked in two different but big projects was a nice connection that needed more time to explore, like they barely talked about Saltburn. But I’m not complaining at all, the way they covered a lot more than the movies they made this year showed a real connection. Felt like people on people before actors on actors!

Just watched “Rustin”. I paused the video in the middle when it’s mentioned and came back to hear Coleman talk about it. Underrated story for sure.

Love watching them discover common things between them. It’s great to see them have so much love for their craft

this is easily in my top 3 favorite actors on actors. when in all honestly I wasn’t expecting it to be. incredible conversation and chemistry between these two.

Halfway through this and I’ve cried twice. A genuine conversation. A good pairing choice, Variety! 👍🏽

the way they interact with each other is so beautiful

I loved everything about this! Lovely, talented men who take their craft very seriously. They both bring a lot of dignity to the word “actor.” Two class acts. I can’t wait to see what each does next!

I really wasn’t sure to expect from this duo but it was quite thoughtful and touching. Sounds like their mothers are the core of their being and why they are so passionate about their work. That’s beautiful

Damn both their voices are soooo sooothing😅😭😭😭

54?! DAMN! he looks like early 30s

probably the best pairing variety has ever had

I could Listen to these two talking for hours.

Wow, forgot about their connection. Such good pairings this year.

Coleman!! He’s fantastic as Victor Strand. Easily the best character in Fear the Walking Dead. Love that he’s here.

i love how variety is coming out with so many of these actors on actors recently

Colman Domingo is a great actor, when I see him at Fear The Walking Dead he has a good acting on his character. And Jacob Elordi is so great on Euphoria, I currently in season 1 ep 6.

colman is so raw & sincere & lovely & warm 🥰

both of them have such calming voices.

This seems genuine and not fake pretend like the others

This is definitely my favorite episode so far this year

Aw....their conversation is SO INSPIRING.....and their beautiful Spirits literally radiant through my screen! Thank you SO MUCH, for sharing this!

Both amazing actors holding a beautiful conversation, I can't wait to continue to watch their careers evolve

What a beautiful conversation, please never stop this series

wow, i sat down and was so engaged and absolutely adored their conversation that i didn’t even realize this was 40 minutes. it felt like 5 minutes. two brilliant people.

One of the most incredible conversations I’ve ever witnessed. Such a blessing to watch. I am inspired, Thank you

Many thanks to Colman, Jacob and everyone at Variety! 🤩

Ugh this was such a great conversation. So many gems about life and perspective!

this conversation was so pleasant to listen to, i didn't believe it ended

An incredibly inspiring conversation. I love how much they appreciate details of humanity.

This is one of the most beautiful conservations I've ever seen between two humans, let alone two creatives. Just beautiful.

This entire interview is beautiful, I'm getting my foot in the door with Acting along with filmmaking. So listening to these two talk about their growth in the industry takes a lot of weight off my shoulders. Knowing that if I keep going even if I feel like I'm not getting anywhere, it's the passion I have for it that will get me there. 🥰

so so so beautiful, such a beautiful conversation

I never get tired of this interview

People are sleeping on Priscilla and Saltburn

Incredible conversation!

this is such a beautiful conversation between two amazing actors. thank you both for taking the time to give us this.

Thank you, Variety...definitely here for these two amazing actors

I’m blown away at how much these two had in common from being so different and from different parts of the world just WOW also I teared up a little in the middle there 🥹

One of THE BEST episodes!!!! Thanks for this pairing!!❤❤❤

Wonderful actors for a wonderful conversation. You can really feel the passion and the involvement on their respective works.

This was amazing. Might be top 5 favorite interviews y’all have done

I'm not crying you're crying, really emotional chat, was great hearing about their motivations and their processes because it seems a lot more real and down to earth
