One of the Marvel actors I imagine. Cumberbatch, Boseman, Downey, Stan, Hiddleston, Holland, Ruffalo, Bettany, Pratt, Evans, Brolin, Hemsworth... take your pick folks.
ReplyDeleteGeorge Clooney.
ReplyDeleteThis could literally be anybody. I used to listen to a podcast if a guy who used to interview celebs about their movies. He said most of them are nice and professional, but those sitdowns last for hours. The celeb sits there and is asked the same questions over and over by a parade of reporters. The actor was probably exhausted and hangry. Not saying he wasn't a dick, but his handlers should have done a better job in handling him.
ReplyDeleteI like this format
ReplyDeleteChristian Bale is known to hate interviews and has given some akeard ones ones..... So has Russel Cow,I mean Crow
ReplyDeleteHe wrote "one of the actors" which makes me believe there was more than one being interview by him. Together were Chadwick Boseman, Danai Gurira & Sebastian Stan, then Ruffalo, Anthony Mackie & Winston Duke, and finally Burkinafaso Cupcake & Tom Holland.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, but people are saying Anthony Mackie and the interviewer guy have had some beef before so...
....Burkinafaso Cupcake???
DeleteI will never be able to call him anything else. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Renner
ReplyDelete@tricia13: totally untrue. If you talk about this Esquire interview in 2010,the writer recognised himself that he changed the tone of the interview because Bale only talked about the movie.
ReplyDeleteBale is a violent abusive prick.
DeleteDidn’t they start the Aquaman press this weekend? Could be one of those actors too.
ReplyDeleteWord is it's Mackie
ReplyDeleteMy guess is Ryan Reynolds or a Marvel guy
ReplyDeleteSome pathetic, nerdy no-name snowflake reporter expecting to be treated as an equal gets all butt-hurt when an unimpressed celebrity gives him some (maybe much deserved) shit.
ReplyDeleteHarden up, Fuckhead. Or get a real job.
We really need to see the video to decide if this guy is telling the truth or we've got a "Rashomon" thing happening.
ReplyDeleteThose press junkets can be brutal. So many entertainment "reporters" really are idiots.
FYI, this was for the Infinity War press run so if you're guessing an actor that is not in Avengers Infinity War (Christian Bale, Ryan Reynolds), you're wrong.

ReplyDeleteProbably a NRA member
ReplyDeleteHeh heh 👍🏻
Delete"Some pathetic, nerdy no-name snowflake reporter "
ReplyDeleteWeintraub is known and not pathetic.
My guess is this is Bale and he has it out for Weintraub for unknown reasons. OTOH, Bale has been known for irrational outbursts at people who haven't rubbed him wrong. Yes, press junkets suck for actors. I couldn't do it. I'd start getting sarcastic and mean about an hour in.
Launching the Himmmm signal.
ReplyDeleteMy question is which substance was the actor abusing that sent him off like that.
ReplyDeleteI have to repeat the same thing over and over all day... to my students. But as a special ed teacher my $46k a year pales to their millions they make to look pretty and pretend to be someone they aren’t. I don’t care if press junkets are boring. Suck it up buttercup.
ReplyDeleteAs a teacher you are at least dealing with actual human beings with varying degrees of genuine personalities.
DeleteWhen it's the fakest phonies feigning emotions in the entertainment and mediawhore industries, it's the worst type of annoying in even the smallest dosage. Violence or any anger expressed towards them should be chalked up to temporary insanity(or the most sober, sound and just judgment of an actual human person)
@Teacher
ReplyDeleteI couldn't do your job either. After college, I worked with some Alzheimer's patients for minimum wage (I really needed the cash.) It's some of the most frustrating work in the world, especially the endless repetitions.
Even if someone is making beaucoup bucks, endlessly repeating things is not fun.
Here's the full RDJ interview with Krishnan Guru-Murthy, people can decide for themselves if he was being a dick.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALBwaO-rAsE
You never know what's going on with these things. I don't think it should be off-limits to ask RDJ about his past, but I don't know what the parameters were for this superhero sit-down interview.
My personal feeling is that an actor should say things like "I'm here to talk about the movie and nothing else. If you delve into this area again, I'm leaving." Which is sort of the vibe, but not the verbalization, that Downey was giving off.
The "syphilitic parasite" comment came later, on the Howard Stern show.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/film-news/11569474/Robert-Downey-Jr-calls-Krishnan-Guru-Murphy-a-syphilitic-parasite.html
I have no opinion on this matter, currently. Just sharing information so others can think for themselves.
THe actor is one of the Avengers 3 promoters. So, it's no Bale, nor Reynolds. Also, it's not Renner or Evans because they are not among the A3 promoting actors too.
ReplyDeleteMy word is on Cumby or Stan. Both brainless sometimes.
This Steven guy later tweeted that people need to stop asking who the actor in question is because he isn't going to answer. Why whine about it then? Who knows what kinds of questions were being asked. I say, post the video of the ridiculousness or move on.
ReplyDeleteJoel McHale? I heard on Gilbert Gottfried's podcast how some guy called him the worst person he'd ever interviewed, because he was so arrogant and obnoxious.
ReplyDeleteDo Tell we're gonna shoot GilGot's Q score through the roof in 2018!
DeleteIf the actor saw him and immediately went off, clearly there's a reason... some history there or something. The interviewer is trying be play it like he's clueless and was taken by surprise but I'm not buying that for a second.
ReplyDeleteI don't know. It's unprofessional. People have to work all the time with people they don't like -- coworker, clients, contactors, whatever. The only person who looks bad is the one with the anger management issue who can't keep it under control despite literally being paid to speak to tge press.
DeleteAll contemporary "journalists" deserve to be treated as dirt for their assholness and ignorance. I support whoever he is.
ReplyDeleteThe only good journalist is a dead journalist but not every dead journalist was a good journalist.
ReplyDeleteThis ^^^

DeleteIt's Anthony Mackie.
ReplyDeleteHe and Frosty have a history and Mackie didn't appreciate the way an interview made him look. It was while Mackie was doing press for "Our Brand is Crisis" and Frosty brought up Man Of Steel. Mackie didn't like the movie and Frosty was like, "I play it on a loop because I love it so much." Mackie and he went back and forth playfully, but during the Civil War press tour, Mackie was asked about the incident by a friend of Frosty's and Mackie pointed out that he thought the interview was edited to make him look bad and he didn't appreciate it.
So, I am sure Mackie saw Frosty and started giving him shit. And, yes, Stan and Winston Duke were in the room along with publicists. No one stopped the interview and it's my personal take, that they must have thought Mackie within his rights to say something. I think this was a long time coming and Frosty blew this way out of proportion.
Yes, Disney/Marvel took the interview footage away. This has just all gotten out of hand. Jessica Chastain and James Gunn even tweeted to Frosty about it. We have confirmation on Twitter from other people who were there that it was Mackie.
I find it hard to believe that Frosty didn't know what he was walking into and I would say maybe he would learn something from this situation, but he was already getting his clickbait on last night. I'm not mad at Mackie or Frosty, it just sounded like something that had been building up for a couple of years.
+1000 Geeljire
ReplyDeleteIf gossip/Hollywood history junkies aren't already listening to his podcast, they should start.
Also, Krishnan got EXACTLY what he deserved from RDJ. He was rude and belligerent and started off the interview that way. RDJ had every right to leave that interview. And Krishnan gets off on interviewing that way. Go look up his interview with Richard Ayoade. It's terrible. Yeah, RDJ has a big ego, but I'm told he is very gracious and he does a ton of charity work.
ReplyDelete@Geeljire: "The only good journalist is a dead journalist...."
ReplyDeleteI usually feel we're on the same side, but this is a little extreme. There are still good journalists out there. Not a lot, but they exist.
Anthony Mackie is appealing, though I was disappointed to see him in "The Night Before." He would've been a million times better as "Shaft" than the new FBI-friendly Usher (mis)casting choice.
I know,
DeleteThe good ones are the ones you never hear about, who will never receive their due in this world, because their commitment to truth and letting others know the truth surpass their worldly interests.
There was a little nuance in there.
Also because they have a tendency towards suicide by multiple gunshot wounds
Delete@plot thanks. I love what I do but it leaves me unsympathetic for spoiled celebrities, or non celebrities, for that matter.
ReplyDeleteIt's not right that journalists continue to ask RDJ about his dark past. He has graciously shared much of his journey through recovery and has been open about his struggles with addiction. How much more is there to ask? And why bring it in an interview for a movie? It seems underhanded to me.
ReplyDeleteKeep in mind that RDJ has paid his dues with addiction. But every time a journalist brings up his dark past, he/she immediately sends RDJ back to that place. He doesn't deserve that. RDJ isn't a man who should be defined by his addiction. Let's move on.

ReplyDeleteCan you imagine if people asked Rob Lowe about teenage girls this incessantly?
ReplyDeleteOr Lindsey Graham about children?
"Some pathetic, nerdy no-name snowflake reporter expecting to be treated as an equal gets all butt-hurt when an unimpressed celebrity gives him some (maybe much deserved) shit. Harden up, Fuckhead. Or get a real job."
ReplyDeleteOr actors could do smile and do their promotional jobs even if they are tired of answering the same questions? Just because a reporter is "no-name" doesn't mean that they can be treated like dirt. Obviously some journalists/reporters do take it too far, but usually the diva behavior is on the part of the celeb.
No - Ms. Norman, you would be woefully incorrect in your guess to this blind. Referencing a 3 year-old story which has ZEEERRO to do with this blind is the wrong way to do this. Sorry. But yes, you named an actor. So that was close :-) I'd have accepted Mister Green Jeans or Captain Kangaroo. They were actors also.
ReplyDeleteAs for other comments ascribed relative to that older non-story (which was attempted to be spun into a story by a thirsty mouth-breather interviewer to up his own fame/ratings in a hurtfully deceitful backstab), try this on:
You're about to be interviewed in a medium that will go to millions, many of whom are young impressionables. For months in advance, the interviewer has agreed to stick to the questions or closely therein. He provided HIS QUESTIONS (not yours but HIS) so you could get your answers ready to oblige him. Ninth one you've done that day already. You get there and he starts wanting to ask you about drugs, and jail, and many things you've discussed ad infinitum plenty before. No shame, just old news. You gently ask him not to.
He insists.
You try to joke to roll it off.
He pushes to the point of rude.
He ignores the off chance that EVEN ONE SINGLE KID could think "their onscreen hero" is now bragging about not being ashamed of his past. Now talking openly about drug use and jail. TO a kid who doesn't know the distinction between "owning it" vs. "bragging". So that one kid goes to emulate "his hero". He does drugs. He gets arrested.
Life NOW RUINED.
Now...imagine that is YOUR child that did that. Or someone you know personally. Are you going to blame the interviewer whom you've never heard of? No. You'll blame the actor. And it'll destroy lives, and splash everywhere that: HEADLINE - "Hero actor blamed for kid's drug addiction/overdose/arrest".
Rinse and repeat. Who in the hell even wants to hear those old stories that have been played out many times? Not kids, and not good parents. So sometimes? It's better to just walk away. And funny enough, over 10 years and over a squillion interviews THIS is still what someone wants to bring up? Really? Because - color me cocky with an ego Sharpie - but if that's the WORST any actor ever dishes out to an interviewer? Well, then. We'll call it a good career. Thank you, and hope you have a nice day and a safe week. Take care and love always...your humble pal.
@Himmmm Thanks again for the much needed laugh this afternoon.
DeleteAlso: A+ answer. That the distinction between “owning it” and “bragging” wouldn’t be clear to a kid actually isn’t one I’d considered before. What the heck DO you ethically answer in a situation like that without unnecessary and repetitive self flagellation?*
*And now I think I get what the interviewers are looking for. And that’s just sadistic.
Now That's What I Call CDAN Posting Vol. 1 (Avengers Cast Version)
Delete@Himmmm thank you for your post. I don't think I ever understood the scrutiny actors go through as far as being asked the same thing over and over. Bringing up only their flaws instead of their gifts. I could not mentally handle that. I guess that is why I have a boring desk job:) Thanks again.
DeletePS - for the blind? TOTALLY Pratt. Really, that guy's ego is just...gahh. He's SUCH a smart ass know it all. With teeny tiny...feet. NOBODY likes him.
ReplyDelete(sorry, only joking. I think you all guessed the real answer already. "C" but I wouldn't know. Wasn't there. Or anything).
@Himmmm well said
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lyla. And due to the fact that it is impossibly difficult to divine the tone used to express comments? Let me say this loudly and for all to read: AT NO TIME WAS I PICKING ON OR TARGETING MS. NORMAN WHATSOEVER. I was joking (thus the smiley face in my reply). I'm certain she IS a lovely person, and one hell of a good cook. So please don't take offense Ms. Norman - I was not directing venom nor vipers in your direction with my reply. Just wanted to clear that up in the off chance you mistook my tone or felt hurt in any way. As I said (sincerely)...Be well friends.
ReplyDeleteThank you Himmmm, and your point about the effect the conversation might have on young minds is so on point and (embarrassingly) hadn't even occurred to me. Your respect points from your faithful followers just reached a new high.
ReplyDeleteAlso, happy to see that the signal still works.
+1🙂
DeleteI was in no way offended I guess there are two side's to every story so I'm glad to have heard yours. I get where your coming from with regards to influencing kid's.I wouldn't describe myself as particularly lovely in all honesty more bitchy 😉 and I'm an awful cook with the exception of roast potatoes and chicken fried rice.
ReplyDeleteI've deleted my comment since it was obviously far off base
ReplyDeleteThe signal works, it's just hell having to strain to see it from all the way out here when we're not home. Perhaps we should invest in that newfangled techno-gadgetry they call a "PAger". (or is it PAYgir? Pahh-gur? Not sure.)
ReplyDelete@MsNorman: Good to know of your snarky nature my friend. Never diminish the deliciousness of roast potatoes and chicken fried rice!! I'm getting hungry thinking of that starchy goodness! Yummmmm. Gotta run...breakfast is ready!
I love this place
ReplyDeleteMan this turned into a kindness blind posting. Well done cdan'ers!
ReplyDeleteWell, pager's are pricey but nowhere near the cost of lighting the Himmmm signal. Anyone else willing to chip in to get Himmmm a pager? (Wait...would we have to buy 4 of them???)
ReplyDeleteJonah Hill, Maniac
ReplyDeletePoor baby... what a dangerous, tough job.
ReplyDeleteNo seriously, there is a huge responsibility that goes with fame that we regular folk never have to consider. As a mother of 4, it was tough enough: do I tell them the truth of my sordid youth or do I pretend I never did anything bad so I don't normalize drug use? I opted for honesty and shared many cautionary tales in hope they'd learn from my mistakes. Ha! Ha!!! Ha!!!!! (It didn't work.)
ReplyDeleteI still don't know what's the best approach with one's own kids, and I sure as hell am glad I don't have to worry, every day, about the effect of my words on other people's children, young fans.
@just sayin are: that huge responsibility with fame, you’re not wrong. I think we all got a thought provoking response from Himmmm this time in the difference between our relatively anonymous thought processes vs thought processes in the public eye, especially when playing a role kids are likely to be fans of.
DeleteAs for one’s own kids, the advantage there is that you can follow up. But here we are on CDAN referencing an interview from 3 years ago. And another from 8 years ago, both without the full dialogue available.
There’s a lot more miscommunication in extended silence than we remember.
Too many reporters like to ask questions that they know they shouldn't ask. It was probably more deserved than he's admitting.
ReplyDelete+1 Han Niam. Better to be rude or risk looking like a jerk, get up and walk out, than say something you regret later. R has not only millions of fans of all ages to consider but kids of his own, one old enough to be dealing with his own issues now, and 2 young ones. I don't think anyone has the right to sit in judgment of him. He looks like a pretty damned good person from where I sit.
ReplyDelete@just sayin
DeleteI’ll back you on that 100%
If this indeed was Anthony Mackie, then 100% there is a back story with the interviewer and he had his reasons. Mackie is a class act. Always very respectful. Could it not have been the best timing - yes that's possible. But he was obviously set off for a reason. And without being there or seeing the video, none of us should judge and instead take into account that he always handles promoting his projects professionally. Obviously more to the story than the journalist / interviewer is leading people to believe.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter's boyfriend is a journalist and has been interviewing celebrities since he was in college. He has not had a bad experience with any of them. I keep waiting for some dirt to come out but so far everyone has been extremely pleasant with him.
ReplyDeleteIt is refreshing to read genuine, like, actions, man. It's cool because the kids do look up to those movie stars, man. My kid who shall remain gender-less (only because the internet is weird not like a lifestyle thing) is obsessed with their character of choice. As a parent, it is comforting to read that people involved in the film franchises, actually DO care about the children of the world their selling the movie to. So yeah man, right on @Himmmm you are a totally most righteous dude in my book man. Thank you for insight. Cheers man.
ReplyDelete@Himmmm
ReplyDeleteYou've gained another faithful fan.
Spectacular insight and explanation, and way to have his back.
Always good when you drop in!
Lots of Twitter speculation that it's Mackie. He was part of a group (w/ Sebastian Stan & Winston Duke) that was interviewed, but seems to be removed from the final cut. And he has some kind of history with Mackie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yP6LkvXN5LY
ReplyDeleteThough if Mackie is still treating him like shit 5 years later for his opinions on a forgettable superhero movie, there may be some deeper issues...
I love being a part of this site. That is all.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I've never been to jail, I did a small mountain of coke during the 70's and 80's. It would have been a much larger mountain if I had my way then. Need a little bump during the day to get through it, sure why not? Need a bump to get ready for partying that night, sure it was there. I carried vial with the little spoon attached to the top everywhere I went. I normalized it to myself.
ReplyDeleteRDJ paid his debt. He did his time and made a fantastic come back. Some where betting against him, while he gained legionaof fans for facing his demons.
Himmmm, thank you for thinking about the kids that look up to you or whomever this is about. Much respect. I wouldn't want my past to haunt me. Why should yours haunt you.
ReplyDeletewas it Renner or Mackie by any chance?
i predict he dared to ask them about slutgate given what's happened since with #MeToo and #TimesUp
it was a male member of the Infinity War cast so the suspects are ..
ReplyDeleteMackie was angry when asked RE hypocrisy supporting #MeToo after calling black widow a 'slut'
Downey Jr was angry when asked RE hypocrisy supporting #MeToo and supporting mel gibson
Cumberbatch Freeman were angry when asked RE sherlock feud

I was just notified... can’t say who but all I will say is it’s who everyone thinks it was.
3:18 AM - 22 April 2018
"It's who everyone thinks it was" is basically confirmation it's Anthony Mackie, as he's the top contender on Twitter. He must still be hung up on that Man of Steel interview if he went right into it as soon as he saw the interviewer.

ReplyDeleteIf somebody has an anti-NRA logo as their twitter picture they're already too dumb for me to give a crap about
ReplyDelete@David
ReplyDeleteI agree
I felt really sorry for RDJ in that interview. I could see his breathing getting faster as this nugget pushed a light hearted interview for a superhero film into something TOTALLY darker and disturbing.
ReplyDeleteI think RDJ came out of it pretty well and handled it much better than I would have done.
I think it won him even more fans.
