I think The X Files typecast her in Hollywood but moving back to England after the show was over was the best move she made for her career. And she's a far better actress now or are at least the opportunity to showcase her talent has been more present. I agree that she's been underrated; she's better than Hollywood rated her.
well the problem is i think she's been type cast as Scully. unfortunately that tends to happen when you've spent so long in one role that you tend to get typecast im afraid.
As someone who comfortably straddles the New Zealand and American accents, I have to say it’s more trouble than it’s worth. You never quite have the smooth command over language that you need to not have it be immediately noticeable.
I remember back in the nineties she was on the cover of all the magazines and listed regularly at that time as one of the most beautiful women in the world but by god I think she’s even sexier now that she was then, it’s the looks, the accent, her elegance and inner confidence, she’s a hottie.
She a regal, graceful, intelligent actress. Her acting skills just get better and better. The Fall was amazing work. In Hannibal, she was mesmerizing. In A Streetcar Named Desire, wickedly outrageous. And in the Crown as PM Thatcher, spectacular.
I recently watched the series: 'The Fall' (dont know how I missed it first time round!). The police character Gillian played was outstanding, and had such gravitas. Though the drama covered incredibly harrowing subject matter, the consistency and solidity of her performance was astonishing, and kept me spellbound. Her acting has an amazing 'centredness'. Brava Gillian!
She's the only actress I've ever followed ever since I was in high school. I became a massive fan of the X-Files at the start of its 2nd season and while she's gone on to phenomenal roles since then, she'll always be Agent Scully to me.
@TrueFree Thinker Physically, she’s become leaner & more sinuous. But also she’s more elegant, intellectually interesting & defined as a personality now. Maybe X Files, being objectified as a sex symbol & playing 2nd fiddle to David Duchovny in Hollywood didn’t allow her to show or explore the parts of her personality the way her return to high caliber British TV has.
2 episodes in and I already think she's the best character on The Crown! Her portrayal and the direction does not make us symphatize, but it does put the audience in her perspective. Just so fun seeing the crash between her vs. the queen.
@@CrazyWatcher670 your statement negates all of the talented DIVERSE folks who've recently won awards. As if the ONLY reason they won was Bc of their color or creed. Shameful. Awards have ALWAYS been political. Period. It's never been strictly talent based. if you're nominated, it's an acknowledgment of your skill and dedication to the craft. Actually winning an award is a numbers game. P
Anderson’s “Media” in “American Gods” was absolutely incredible. It was an imitation of a real like person by a fictional character. She did Lucille Ball, David Bowie, Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland in parody yet you detected the fictional Media behind the voice. It was wild- so unexpectedly good. Anderson is a powerful actor. I love her! 😘
She was my idol back in my school days as I was obsessed watching xfiles I even remember dyeing my hair red and cutting so short when all girls in class had long hair
Such an amazing actor. At first I was put off by her Thatcher, but by episode two I was just totally seeing Thatcher like she was this completely different, original, complex person (unique but still similar to real life Thatcher). Give her every award.
I grew up with her. Following her selective roles, while through them kidda maturing her character, into what I realise today she has become: an actress who respect the personalities that is performing. Astonishing performance in Margaret's Thatcher role!
Не знаю интервью, тогда проходило в этот момент, мне стало большое то, что было много заседаний, постоянно друг с другом общались, ездили в разные страны мира, летали в разные страны и вас, как встречали и разные страны и вас, как встречали самолёты. Не прям вот сразу пок поглаживали по головке, так неужели так можно сыграть эту роль, но просто реальность, это реальность, надо же так роль вы сделали, смогли это всё передать как настоящий? В этот вся целиком и полностью, но это просто. Ну нет слов: эмоции, эмоции я вас и не узнала это, я потому, что наказывается это так роль играли, и всё ссорились 7, это не интересно. Политические вопросы решать-это тоже очень надо уметь, неужели так всё у вас так получилось, молодец, надо держать именно так-так держать всегда и сниматься побольше таких фильмах, таких полнометражных, как это кино оно стало. Вот оно транслировалось везде и очень приятно, что вот так вот открыли сейчас, вот так небольшую студию по этому поводу-это приятно мне есть много слов сказать, правда съёмки идеальные, потому что. Ну надо, так я не знаю, как сканер не сканер. Это всё сканирует, я не знаю, что делается, но именно передать такую суть всего этого, это надо суметь то, что там так играли, там понятно, женщина она была в престарелом возрасте, да, но сыграть такую роль, это надо уметь молодец, так держать.😊лайк
May I just say without starting a riot, I watch these interviews to hear the person's answers. She puts a lot of thought and time into her answers and does not deserve to be drowned out by piano music. It's a nice touch because she's in a bare room that echos a bit, but seriously, Somewhere around 7 min. in it was almost drowning her out. lucky for you it was Gillian Anderson or I'd have moved on.
Watched her in "A Streetcar Named Desire" I think it was here on TH-cam? Anyway, was just going to watch a few minutes (very long play) just to check it out & ended up watching the whole play because of Ms. Andersons amazing non stop performance!!! This is a Mega Talented Actress+++
Her Lady Dedlock in BBC amazing production of "Bleak House" about a decade ago was such a visceral performance. The fear, the longing, the profound sadness and regret
I was a big fan of her as Scully in the X-files and thought she became more beautiful as she got older during the series. Even now she is amazingly attractive for her age. I do like her American accent better though and that's not being American bias because I don't feel that way about all actors and actresses
Lovely as ever Gillian i remember you predominantly in the X Files i loved that series im currently learning the Meisner technique can you tell me how well you did using this technique Thank You Gillian Best Wishes from Manchester UK XX
I found her Thatcher powerful and compelling but exaggerated in odd vocal mannerisms and overplayed body language, but she was, overall, greatly able to inhabit this character.
Is it just me or she is getting prettier and prettier? Fantastic actress! Huge fan of X-files! I felt that David Duchovny did the aging for both of them, but Gillian Anderson never aged a day.
27 years later and I can still barely contain my crush on this woman 😍
I feel it in my pants.
Same
She only gets more sexy with age if you ask me
Why do you need to contain it lol
27 years, gay - and I still can't contain it either!
She’s the Meryl Streep of television, don’t even try to fight me on this. 👑
In her best form, She's better
She's better than Meryl Streep.
Who cares for Meryl Streep?
This.
And theatre
She is aging like a fine wine
She looks better now than she did in the 90s!!
@@chelseagirl278 oh she was very beautiful back then, and still is. Her looks changes but equally gorgeous.
Foundation makeup can work wonders on skin you know....
Is she aging? I hadn't noticed.
She's aging???
I can't believe her role as Hannibal's psychologist, Bedelia du Murieur never is brought up or even mentioned. She was genius in that role
I loved her In that role - omg
right?! i loved her as bedelia
Yep LOVED that Series
The show varies by person so probably why.
Oh god she’s insanely gorgeous and talented what a killer combination
She is so beautiful and elegant. Can't wait to see her in this role.
She is so underrated...hope she gets the recognition she deserves with this role.
Is she?
@@ulfingvar1 totally
No she isn't. She's an actress. What does she have to do to not be underrated?
I think The X Files typecast her in Hollywood but moving back to England after the show was over was the best move she made for her career. And she's a far better actress now or are at least the opportunity to showcase her talent has been more present. I agree that she's been underrated; she's better than Hollywood rated her.

She has this weird in between American and British accent that’s so cool.
She switches her accent depending on if she is interviewing for American or British company.
@@Opocrious thanks I’m aware.
As someone who comfortably straddles the New Zealand and American accents, I have to say it’s more trouble than it’s worth. You never quite have the smooth command over language that you need to not have it be immediately noticeable.
@@Dunmerdog It’s cute though 🙂
I think she grew up in London and then moved to America. So that's where she acquired her accent
Sexuality: Gillian Anderson
Lol
@Samuel Rummerplease
@Samuel Rummer no I mean sexuality
@@ER_Channel_00 hi blanket
@@ER_Channel_00 was us
15 years later and this woman is still such a crush. That voice!!
Such a classy, intelligent and well spoken woman. * sighs blissfully *
I remember back in the nineties she was on the cover of all the magazines and listed regularly at that time as one of the most beautiful women in the world but by god I think she’s even sexier now that she was then, it’s the looks, the accent, her elegance and inner confidence, she’s a hottie.
She’s great in Netflix’s The Fall.
OMG Yes !
I love this serie!
That's actually not a Netflix show. They just bought the rights. It aired years ago on UK TV.
The Fall was acutally BBC TV profuction not Netflix
Doesn't matter who produced it , Anderson was great -- possibly better role than Thatcher role , in my opinion.
She a regal, graceful, intelligent actress. Her acting skills just get better and better. The Fall was amazing work. In Hannibal, she was mesmerizing. In A Streetcar Named Desire, wickedly outrageous. And in the Crown as PM Thatcher, spectacular.
She 110% deserves an Oscar for her portrayal of Margret Thatcher, The voice and mannerisms where spot on.
😂😂
is a tv show not a movie, so she can`t be nominated for an academy award.
uh do you mean an Emmy? Oscar is for movies.
Emmy...
The voice was terrible and didn’t sound like Thatcher at all
I can't believe that the woman who plays Margaret Thatcher is this attractive and likable. It's like they are two different people. Amazing.
She is an actress. That’s what they do!
They are two different people......😟
I knowwwww. I was trying to compliment her.
@@eileenvandernoot3867 Well said. That is their profession.
Well said such a wonderful actor.

Though the drama covered incredibly harrowing subject matter, the consistency and solidity of her performance was astonishing, and kept me spellbound. Her acting has an amazing 'centredness'. Brava Gillian!
She practises yoga, tai chi & daily meditation
I liked her when I first saw her in X-files and that hasn’t diminished yet.
She's the only actress I've ever followed ever since I was in high school. I became a massive fan of the X-Files at the start of its 2nd season and while she's gone on to phenomenal roles since then, she'll always be Agent Scully to me.
This is one celebrity crush I am never getting over. What an absolute gem!
Gillian Anderson has such elegance and sophistication what an icon
Love love love her. What an eloquent classy woman
She is like the woman that is hotter is her 50s than in her 30s
I guess the key word here is class. Age gave her class. Of course, class need to be learned, and you need time. :)
She’s the textbook definition of that very thing.
@TrueFree Thinker Physically, she’s become leaner & more sinuous. But also she’s more elegant, intellectually interesting & defined as a personality now. Maybe X Files, being objectified as a sex symbol & playing 2nd fiddle to David Duchovny in Hollywood didn’t allow her to show or explore the parts of her personality the way her return to high caliber British TV has.
Agreed. She's inspo.
Beauty, elegance and class. She is far better than the expensive red wine. More beautiful now than during her X files period.
First saw her in the X Files Pilot Episode ......loved her ever since. God bless her.
Well this is definitely a case for X files. She’s the ‘curious case of Gillian Anderson’. Just getting more beautiful and youthful by the minute!
Her Margaret Thatcher was INCREDIBLE. She is amazing.
She’s more beautiful now than she was 25 years ago. Looks younger than her 52 years too.
she could really take over the world if she ever decides to start a cult
2 episodes in and I already think she's the best character on The Crown! Her portrayal and the direction does not make us symphatize, but it does put the audience in her perspective. Just so fun seeing the crash between her vs. the queen.
Imagine being in the same room as Gillian Anderson lol... What a lucky bunch!
I love how she became an "actor's actor." Well done, Gillian.
I need her to win an Oscar, otherwise the Academy are just a bunch of clowns...
Haven't they always been that?

@@mckenzie.8653 wtf are you talking about. That was totally unprovoked
Emmys for television.
But she'd have to be in a movie first.
Her migrating accent is so fascinating to me. It’s always closer to the accent of whichever country the media outlet that is interviewing her is from.
Read on description... you just missed her role as Bedelia duMerier in Hannibal. She has amazing voice as Bedelia.
*breathily whisper* I believe you.
Will: 👁️👄👁️
I thought nothing could top Meryl's performance, but then I saw her in The Crown, and she definitely topped Meryl in the Iron Lady
this woman is just... I am in awe with her talent & beauty.
I saw her in Streetcar and she was incredible. She is a goddess.
She is just MARVELOUS as Margaret Thatcher! I love her voice!
Yes isn't she, excellent. One forgets at times that it is Gillian.
Anderson’s “Media” in “American Gods” was absolutely incredible. It was an imitation of a real like person by a fictional character. She did Lucille Ball, David Bowie, Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland in parody yet you detected the fictional Media behind the voice. It was wild- so unexpectedly good. Anderson is a powerful actor.

She was my idol back in my school days as I was obsessed watching xfiles I even remember dyeing my hair red and cutting so short when all girls in class had long hair
That's commitment
Her beauty shines, and as Mrs. Thatcher she made a phenomenal transformation. Well done, Gillian!
Cannon WAIT to see her in the crown. She’ll nail this!! This season will be so epic 😍 i See an Emmy coming!
Always love her in x files. She is surprising in the crown. She never goes out of season. Always something to look forward in her retinue
Why do I get chills hearing her voice!?!
Such an amazing actor. At first I was put off by her Thatcher, but by episode two I was just totally seeing Thatcher like she was this completely different, original, complex person (unique but still similar to real life Thatcher). Give her every award.
I can’t take my eyes of her! She so FANTASTIC ❤️
she portrayed the character beautifully , she stole the show and was the most convincing
I love when people are eloquent and is not using always the same words...also, can we talk about how beautiful her skin looks?
She must be up for an award for her role as Thatcher, she was incredible!
I grew up with her. Following her selective roles, while through them kidda maturing her character, into what I realise today she has become: an actress who respect the personalities that is performing. Astonishing performance in Margaret's Thatcher role!
She will always be Scully to me. The gorgeous redhead. 😍
She took the season in her hands. I run a sound program with the original voice of Margaret Thatcher and then I play her voice. I was speechless.
She's brilliant. I loved her in Hannibal and The Fall. She was epic as Margaret Thatcher, too!
She’s so elegant 🥺💛

Before I click on a video I always cross my fingers hoping it’s the British accent😍 She’s so fine
I find her so fascinating... oh and BEAUTIFUL OF COURSE.

Respect to this woman. Playing thatcher after splendid job done by Meryl Streep in ironmlady requires lot of gumption
Splendid insight of an actress world, it's really wonderful to see Gillian again, simply brilliant
How is she not aging and getting even more gorgeous over time? 🤔
Good surgeon
Mulder is aging for her❤️
I loved her portrayal of Blanche Dubois amazing actress xxx
Last week I viewed The Fall for the second time. Very good acting and seeing her was every second fun.
She was really fantastic in the Crown
she's soooo underrated! i've always loved her since x-files.. she's my spirit animal whenever i get scared lol
American Gods lost it's magic when she was no longer around. Loved her as Ziggy!
agreed!
“Apologize.”
LOL she was so good in AG.
I have been in love with this woman since the X Files days and she is still divine!
Dearest Gillian, Happy Valentine Day❤❤❤
Such a timeless talented beauty she is. Love her
She is the epitome of a class act

There is something about her smile and eyes which never gets old

Take my whole friggin heart, Gillian, I beg of you.
She is very elegant. Her voice is nice to hear.
You should see her artwork in the first season of the american gods...... amazing!!!

Her accent has changed from living in the UK. Another tick for those linguistic/sociological theories
She’s dialectal. Being raised in the UK and North America
Gorgeous and Talented, a Chameleonic actress: from Sex Education to Mag Thatcher. What a job! 👏🏽👏🏽
This woman is perfection

Just waoooo very class and aristocratic and kind and very difficult rolll you are the best jilian Anderson
Beautiful woman.Incredible acting talent.
I love her
She's like the spice girl of The X-Files another thing she's so cool and smart
What can’t she do honestly
I'm completely addicted to her
I'm deeply in love with Gillian; my gosh she is pretty 😍😍😍
How is that this woman gets more beautiful with age? Truly an amazing, beautiful, and talented person.
I found her Thatcher powerful and compelling but exaggerated in odd vocal mannerisms and overplayed body language, but she was, overall, greatly able to inhabit this character.
She did exaggerate the vocal mannerisms
Is it just me or she is getting prettier and prettier? Fantastic actress! Huge fan of X-files! I felt that David Duchovny did the aging for both of them, but Gillian Anderson never aged a day.
That’s because Duchovny is a hand model. Only his hand was hermetically sealed from the aging elements of oxygen
David has aged quite well though. He just happens to be 8 years older than Mrs. Anderson. For his age, he looks great.
Maybe thats because he is almost a decade older than her?? I met the dude two years ago, he looks amazing.
She still look equally gorgeous as her X-Files days
She is a very talented actress, no doubt about that.
She gets more beautiful with age. What a woman!
Can't wait to see her on the Crown
😆👑❤
She was amazing in the play: A streetcar named desire.
