00:00Hey guys, welcome to nominees night from this nominated succession. How does that feel?
00:06It's great. We love our show.
00:08Yeah, it's pretty wild.
00:11Yeah, it's a blast to be nominated because I feel like we sort of just arrived.
00:17So, yeah, to be nominated is a bit of a thrill.
00:21It's a thrill and, you know, I've been asking a lot of people for their favorite performances and favorite shows
00:26and it's succession, succession, succession and individual actors.
00:31You know, you guys have been mentioned in my office, outside of my office.
00:34You know, are you keeping up with the chatter online on Twitter?
00:38Do you guys pay attention to the fever around the show?
00:43I get sent some things sometimes that are pretty funny.
00:47I try not to go on Twitter just because it's overwhelming.
00:50Like, I did earlier in the season and I was like, this is crazy that you can make something
00:56and then every second or seven seconds, like, somebody's talking about it.
01:01And so I was sort of like, I've got to step away from this.
01:04But it's funny when people send, like, good memes and things.
01:06We've got to talk about you.
01:08The layers and complexity of your performance in the course of one scene is remarkable.
01:13If I had an Emmy, I'd give it to you now.
01:15I'm not a member of the Academy, but I'm not.
01:17So talk to me about Siobhan's journey and how you, where you go to find the rollercoaster of a journey.
01:25Did you see I just did it, too?
01:27Um, I don't know.
01:28I, a lot of, I mean, the people that we work with are so fucking good.
01:33Like, Brian.
01:34I mean, the opening scene in the first episode with Brian is just like,
01:37you just listen to him and watch what he's doing and then respond accordingly.
01:42I don't know.
01:42We're very lucky in the way that we shoot.
01:44We shoot, like, three cameras and cover one side, cover the other side.
01:48And so it all feels very real.
01:49Like, you're acting all the time.
01:50There's no sort of, like, formal setups where you sort of start wide and push in or go the other way.
01:55And so it all feels like you just get to act as if you're doing a scene rehearsal and try a new thing and try a new thing.
02:02And then they edit it together and make you look good, I think.
02:04I know that there's a lot of people in that room that want to meet you guys.
02:10That must feel good.
02:12But I'm sure there's some other actors out there whose work you admire.
02:15Is there anybody in particular you want to meet this weekend?
02:17Fellow nominated shows, nominees?
02:20I mean, I'm pretty excited that we're coming to the HBO party.
02:22Because there's a lot of people there that I think are amazing.
02:28I don't know.
02:28Bill Hader, I think, is pretty damn cool.
02:32Julie Louis-Dreyfus, like, you know, all the Veep cast, they're fucking awesome.
02:36And it's also a special year.
02:38Obviously, those two shows have said goodbye.
02:41Everyone loves to talk about the series finale and whether a show has nailed it or not.
02:45What do you think?
02:46With Game of Thrones?
02:47Yeah.
02:47Do you know what?
02:48I dropped off at season two.
02:50So I've been like, I don't know anything.
02:52Don't give me any spoilers.
02:54I've been like saving it.
02:55I've been really good at avoiding all pop culture for the last eight years.
02:59So I don't know anything.
03:00I know there's a Red Queen at some point and a Red Wedding at some point and a battle of bastards.
03:06You guys have fun.
03:07Keep up the fantastic work.
03:08Thanks so much.
03:09So nice to meet you.
03:10Nice to meet you.
