Joseph Gordon-Levitt Breaks Down His Career, from '10 Things I Hate About You' to 'Inception' - บันเทิง

He looks like a retired actor who is now a theater teacher that lets you call him by his first name. But like, if you seem him at the grocery store, he’d look like Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
Oddly specific
and strangely correct
Very articulate perception lol
Pompeedooz you lost me there.
Masrerclass
When I was a kid and watched "10 things I hate about you", I thought he and Heath Ledger were brothers, because they looked so alike with their eyes, face and so on...and now he looks more and more like him
RIGHT THEY LOOK SO SIMILAR
I LITERALLY HAD TO CHECK THAT HEATH WAS IN THE MAIN ROLE, even though I know that well. They look so much alike
They do look alike. I get him confused with James Franco, not because they look alike, but I dunno. They have the same handsome attitude. But I think James is probably sillier. I'm glad JGL was able to relax once he started getting the roles that made him feel professional.
OMG SAME AND
EVERYBODY THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY
GIRL PLS I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THEY WERE 2 DIFF PEOPLE AND I CLICKED ON THIS THINKING "ISNT HE DEAD? OH WELL" BYEE😭😭
Feels like he is an introvert playing an extrovert
Why does this make sense lol
Many people in the public eye are total introverts. I fully agree!
This comment 😂
yes! he's a total INFP
@@ani.mp3 some sort of virus?
it's a shame that they skipped over mysterious skin, probably one of the most intense films i've watched and resonated with
literally
i was looking forward to seeing what he had to say abt it then they just skipped it
Also Treasure Planet
They wouldn’t have skipped over it if this vanity fair video was made this year. That movie was culturally overlooked up until recently because of tik tok.
Bellwood is full of child abusers
Biggest flex is saying that you are allowed to call Leonardo DiCaprio Leo .
@Король Ночнушек eventhough he is overrated you can agree that he is very famous and he knows a thing or two about the acting business, so being able to call him by his nickname is kind of a flex .
anyone who reaches that level of fame can be called overrated. but he actually has a pretty good range, unlike typecast actors like johnny depp or even RDJ
@@sorenkair Johnny Depp is not a typcast actor dumbass, go watch his filmography
@Король Ночнушек lmao didn't know that the man who made wolf of wall street and the aviator is overrated lol
@@user-lx7sg8ks7b I think the reason some call him overrated is because he mostly yells his way through a film
Dude is 40 in 6 months and he looks like he's in his 20s. TELL US WHERE THE FOUNTAIN IS!
Wait!? He's turning 40? I thought he was legit 30 or early thirties 😳
Ikr He has always looked young to me. His smile can spread happiness and seems like an easy going nice guy.
The fountain of youth is being rich and having good genetics
He looks really good in this lighting. Check out the hot ones interview and you can see his age more. He’s still a babe though
We want to know too! Haha
I love how he is kind of pretentious but self aware about it
i wonder if he's a leo...nope aquarius
@@paolamiano i think he has a leo moon
@@paolamiano …
When they make a movie about Heath Ledger's life... Joseph Gordon-Levitt is the ONLY person that can play him. There is no one else.
No one can play him
no one can play, no one should play him
lol, he sounds like he was a REALLY intense kid.
Yeah I got that impression too especially when he was talking about 10 Things I Hate About You.
Hahaha for reall
the most talented people often are, sad how some are treated horribly aka me
Looking at him now, he seems like a mix of Heath, Keanu Reeves and Jude Law
So true, my thoughts exactly!
Heath ledger and Brandon Lee....
aah he looks sooo much like heath!!! ;_;
Jude law where ? Lol
juicyfruit133 Think ‘The Holiday’! There’s something about his mouth, and the glasses giving me Jude Law vibes
i was today years old when i learned JGL has kids
Then know this too....
He is almost 40
Same.
He has been my celebrity crush for years so I know a lot about his life. But, for a casual fan...yeah, he doesn't really talk about his personal life. He makes a point to just focus on his career in interviews.
Right?! I would classify myself as a pretty big fan of him (I remember Hit Record when it was just a website), and I remember when he got married, but I literally said "he has KIDS?!" out loud in shock.
he does ?
Mysterious Skin is honestly one of the most important movies I've ever seen and I think one of his best roles he's ever acted in.
Things arent important by themselves.
100% such an amazing film
so real. it sucks that they skipped over it.
fr same w manic
it's criminally underrated
What an incredibly normal dude. He's just an actor and understands how the game works since he's been in it since he was a kid. Crazy to see no ego and no eccentricity out of an actor being nostalgic of a career. Refreshing he came out of Hollywood with a career as a child actor and an adult actor without having any sort of that strangeness that his peers get.
Sadly a lot child actors were abused thus they ended up going crazy later in life.
This comment! One hundred percent accurate.
He looks like he bathe regularly.
It also seems that, unlike many child actors that may have been talented and enjoyed some aspects, his being an actor was likely his genuine choice. He speaks about his drive to act in dramas like someone who always was spurred on by genuine joy in his craft? Maybe not all the projects, but just HAVING a project to be proud of seems to have been his aim. You hear of a lot of child actors who may have started off loving it, but eventually want to stop and are almost pushed to continue by family/friends/agents/society in general. Instead of being allowed to say "yeah i think i'm done" (like i was allowed to do when i decided i didnt like soccer) these child actors are made to stay in a vedy high pressure lifestyle against what they would necessarily choose. Joseph (appears) to have chosen to stay on his career path the entire time.
To be fair, many artists are just Like That. Born eccentric weirdos.
Listening to him talk about films, shows that he is a fan of the art of film, and not about just about the pay check
Oh definitely. If you watch his TH-cam channel HITRECORD, you can tell that he’s a very creative person and passionate about film and other art forms
The fact that he hasn't been doing many movies recently adds to it
@ adds to what? And why isnt he doing movies recently😢
@ pic9990
@@kellyyin4126 had the
14:14 "I didn't know Leo at the time so I wasn't allowed to call him Leo. Now I am. Now I can."

this feels like a therapy session
Lmao yes
I didn’t realize he was such a serious actor lol. He was such a cute little jelly bean.
I don't think he'd like to hear that 😆
He is an amazing actor.
He still is quite adorable if you ask us! Haha
🥰
Saw his seriousness in power lol
His hair is giving him a very Heath Ledger vibe right now. I approve.
Right
I thought you meant Jared Leto for a second.
Don't make me cry
@@jonnnnniej absolutely....just stunning
It's an everyone on the sunny coast vibe lmao
They skipped Mysterious Skin and I'm sad. It's one of my favorite movies and one of his most, if not the most, powerful performances.
Oh no, I just started the video and was hoping to hear him talk about it ☹
@@petalchild Me too... This movie is everything.
Ikr! I wanted to hear what he thought about it but I'm glad he sees this time period as what he wanted to do as an actor at least :)
@@lonelyghostasmr I hope he feels proud about it. I had never seen CSA tackled with as much depth and subtlety before and probably will never see it again. As a victim, the movie was painfully unflinching but oddly cathartic.
Oh no I was waiting for it too!
He seems like an incredibly old soul who's lived many lives, but also like he's still 22 years old.
It's ironic to me that he takes himself so seriously as an actor because he has natural lightheartedness that seems more like a comedian.
sid viscus Comedians are miserable people. 😂
Listen to his Ted talk
I think the amount of weed he smokes now has probably helped in chilling him out over the years. Lol
@@michellelynne5118 this is true lol
I wish he'd spoken about Looper & The Dark Knight Rises
He's done a lot of reddit amas where he talks about those
I agree. I thought in "Looper", he did an excellent job mimicking Bruce Willis' mannerisms, etc. A great performance!
looper, dark knight rises, snowden, lincoln were all on the timeline, so he must've talked about them. they were probably edited out because there's already footage of him speaking at length about those role available
Angels in the outfield & 50/50 as well
Seriously
Such a tease
Can’t believe they didn’t have him discuss Looper. Such a fantastic movie
Expect the huge plothole in last it is a pretty entertaining movie
It is remarkable how engaging it is for a story with no likeable characters. Well, I guess Bruce Willis's girlfriend, but she's only in it for like a minute.
Or Dark Knight Returns
They probably did but I bet it was cut for time.
pretty solid filmography
Huge fan. Thought I saw most your movies but I guess I was wrong. They are now on the list 😉
Dich sieht man aber auch überall auf TH-cam xD
Ughhh he is so fine and I stand by that statement. Even here with this substitute teacher look? still fine.
i honestly think this is my fave version on him. 🥰
He's so endearing and fineeeeee mmmmhmmm
I think I like the substitute teacher version the best. 😆
Having him as a substitute would be one of the best days ever 😭
the way his eyes get kind of sad when he said "because of heath" 🥺

@@TheClassicMagda funny that JGL was In a Nolan Batman-Movie himself :) like Heath Ledger
@@TheUncomfortable and they were in 10 things together! so crazy
Joseph Gordon Levitt doesn't seem like a Hollywood actor. He seems like a decent approachable non narcissist kind human being. How did that happen?
Well, he knows how to act when cameras are rolling..
Why do you assume most Hollywood actors are unapproachable narcissists?
This is why I love him!!!
cause he genuinely loves film making and acting!
@@13strong
Have met many or lived around them. I have enough said.
I know he's 14 years older than me. But I would marry this guy in a heartbeat.
Me too ! I LOVE him 💙🙏
@Dziordan1 yes
@Dziordan1 his high social status is part of his appeal.
Dziordan1 well if he wasn’t famous she wouldn’t even know who he was unless she knew him personally
Dziordan1 the fame and the talent are part of the charm OBVIOUSLY 🙄
Just like somebody’s looks, or personality are part of what attracts you to a person
Its not about being superficial
Its about looking at the whole package
The tone of his voice and how it cut when he said "because of heath" that got me, because he worked with Heath and then worked on The Dark Knight Rises
I still get emotional when I think of heath or watch one of his movies, so I can’t even imagine the people that made them with him 😭😭😭
I paused and scrolled just to see if anyone else caught that. To hear him talk about how he felt about "10 things" and how he felt about working on it. Knowing that heath's feelings were almost identical about that movie I wonder if they connected on that point while working together.
@@Nunyabiz8787 they look so similar they could have brothers in life
BeckyLee B. yeah, everyone has always said they look alike :(

he’s just... so pretty😫
Hello dear It’s me Joseph Gordon Levitt 🤞I would like if we can talk privately...
@@broadcastingjoseph.glevitt4641 LMAOOOOOO
Lmao 😅
I’m sad they skipped 50/50, that movie makes me laugh and reflect on life more than anything else
500 Days of Summer has one of the best matched soundtracks in movie history
2nd only to Sucker Punch, which was a hidden Musical. The actors sang half the songs. The sound track album is amazing.
wrong, the shrek franchise does.
I wanted to like this but there is currently 500 likes. Lol
Up there with: Vanilla Sky, The Darjeeling Limited and Little Miss Sunshine.
@@constancehaigh2606 Yup. People probably think we are joking but Shrek legit has the best Music TO MATCH ratio. It not only has the best cohesive soundtrack but its own original score and then perfect blends to the movies timing.
Love how honest he is. Most actors refuse to dog on themselves or movies they did that they aren't proud of. He just comes out and says it. "I felt ashamed of '10 Things I Hate About You' at the time.". Like wow, I love that movie, but your honesty is amazing. I'm glad he's open about that type of stuff.
zac efron used to hate talking about high school musical films but he doesn't mind talking about it now
ngl him saying that he's ashamed of 10TIHAY kinda hurt my feelings because it's one of my favorite movies
Viktoria Jelena Right! It felt weird bc it’s not like he insulted me or anything but it stung a little lol. I can quote that movie usually word for word 🤷♀️
He is so deeply passionate about everything he does, that's what makes him so compelling to watch. even during an interview that is essentially a monologue
The idea of serious child actors is honestly crazy to me. To think he was 10yrs old in a big movie like A River Runs Through It and was so serious about "hitting his mark", studying lines and all the stress that comes with it. I think about my 10yr old and wld never want that for them but at the same time someone like JGL says he loved it so it goes to show you that some ppl were just born to do it
Such a humble guy. You can tell how passionate he is about his job. Super honest about the parts/movies he wasn’t too sure about. All around great guy.
@@yeseniabug I really appreciate the fact that you make out time to follow my movies and series, once again I say a big thank you specially to you
@@yeseniabug how long have you been following me??
@@josephlevitt6259 I don’t know you??
Man I can think of like 6 movies I wish they discussed. Guess I'm a way bigger Joseph Gordon-Levitt fan than I realized.
lol same
Seemed especially odd to skip Looper after he mentioned Rian.
I was hoping they would talk about Angels In The Outfield
Paul Ponce Aya-ay 300 DAYS HAHAHAHA
50/50 is soooo goooooooooood
He's one of the few kids actors that did not let Hollywood destroy his life!
Probably cos he was so intense about acting didn't get distracted by the parties.
I’m glad he was in 10 things. It was perfectly cast. I hope he can be proud of that movie. I love it so much and my friends and I still quote it all the time. Actually, 10 things and Inception are the movies I will re-watch over and over if I am on a flight or something. 500 days of summer is also a great film. Wow, didn’t realize just how big of a Joseph Gordon-Levitt fan I really am til right now!
I met him once at a wedding, we had a mutual friend in common. He is very nice and friendly in real life. To be honest I had no idea who he was until someone told me who he was.
if i saw him now, i probably wouldn't recognize him either cause of his glasses and curly hair
WhAt that's crazyy
@Alexander Supertramp ok and?
@@_aiko020 this user shared a nice anecdote about him being a super normal dude in “real life”. Most people watching this vid are probably (wild guess!! /s) interested in him/his career. Don’t be that person.
Him talking about how he was embarrassed at the time of amazing classics like 10 Things I Hate About You and 3rd Rock honestly gives me so much hope for myself. Trust the process. Even if you don’t see where it could lead, trust the process.
danielle iry It also goes to show how great an actor he is IMO. He didn’t look embarrassed while in the film
This!!!!!! It’s all about the process. That’s the most engaging part.
Follow the stream, have faith in its course.
He’s like Paul Rudd man doesn’t age
Don Jon was a powerful movie and a reflection of our times. I think it was underrated for such a deep film.
Hello just wanna say a big thank you for your constant love and support, I really appreciate your kind words ❤️
I love 500 Days of Summer. I was a freshman in college when I first saw it and fell in love with a girl at first sight. At that time on the first couple of viewings I was upset at Zoeys character. It echoed a lot of what I wanted in my relationship with the girl I loved. It ended between us and I felt jaded like Joseph’s character.
As I matured I watched it again and realized how I idealized that girl and how I made up what she was in my head and not who she actually was as a person. That I was selfish, just like he was selfish putting expectations on someone else.
I love that movie it helped me grow up a bit.
In my eyes 500DoS is his main movie.
Woooow thank you for sharing this! I never looked at dating like this! Wow 😳
I had a very similar experience. Though I’m a girl and was OBSESSED with this guy. Definitely unhealthy. You spoke to exactly why I loved this movie and how it made me grow and how I believe with that growth, I love it even more. This and the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind are my go to break up/feel better movies.
I could probably listen to JGL talk about movies for like an entire year.
Yesss
sameeee 😍😍😍
The way his voice ever so subtly cracks when he says Heath 🥺😭💜
Love Joseph Gordon Levitt!! As an actor and a human being...he seems so down to earth
Hello dear It’s me Joseph Gordon Levitt 🤞I would like if we can talk privately...
He gives me such ‘if Tom Hiddleston was American’ vibes
Well they're both Aquarius so...yes
Omg. Thats what it is. I couldn't place it but you're right. I always thought Tom reminded me of someone, and having grown up watching JGL on 3rd rock, thats what I was picking up!
Facts
@@donicaharris6163 doesnt mean anything
He looks like Paul Rudd in this video. Paul Rudd when he was on Friends
The only thing I hated about this video was the absurd amount of ads I had to get through just to enjoy JGL's personality and super curly hair.
Just an FYI that I learnt earlier this year, if you drag the video to the end and then replay it, all the ads disappear and you can watch it in peace 🤗
@@katall7951 thank you for this much valuable information! I shall now enjoy videos in peace. 🙌
i was today years old when i learned JGL has kids
Biggest flex is saying that you are allowed to call Leonardo DiCaprio Leo .
youtube vanced. no ads
I feel like sometimes he is an underrated actor. He’s awesome. Give this man an Oscar already!
Joseph Gordon-Levitt: I want to be **serious**
Me: So cute! 💖
He seems like everyone’s favorite teacher. Always been a likable guy.
“I wasn’t allowed to call him Leo Now I am now I can... hahahaha” that part is hilarious 😆 what a great actor Joseph
Didn't realize just how versatile of an actor he is
I love how animated he is, how genuine and passionate! He’s a very cool guy!
Why do I feel like he broke into someone's flat, stole their clothes, and then filmed this
Cuz you ghey
That's his job
and prepared his look with a curling iron 🤣
Looks like an office, to me.
I don’t think he has that kinda energy
Why are people giving this vid a thumbs down he’s such a likable guy
Jealousy my brother jealousy
maybe ther are thumbs downing Vanity Fair not JGL. Why censor the language!!
I didnt thumb this down but I’m very disappointed that 50/50 and Looper aren’t mentioned
@@justjack1888 admittedly, to me, he just didn't seem that interesting to me. As an actor, yes, as a person...well...
Michael Bourke I think he is special ( to me ) coz he’s a child star who became sucessful, things I would not bet on when I watched him in “Third Rock” back then
He’s such a young dude with an old soul!
My spirit animal.
The cuts to the timeline are so abrupt, thought they were legitimately cutting him off mid sentence the first couple times lol
The most underrated Disney movie of all time STILL didn't get mentioned here by the actor who played the main character??? :(
When are people going to start giving Treasure Planet the respect it deserves...?
Either way, it's his interview and his career. Still love this guy!
....hE WAS IN TREASURE PLANET???? Dang, I thought i was a Joseph fan
Treasure Planet deserves more recognition
@@denny.moiras the main character yo!
Woaaah, he was????
It was Michael J Fox. But they sound similar
What a wholesome, honest, lovely dude who just cares about his craft.. I really love these timelines, but I especially love the people that are appearing on them
"Don Jon" was great. I love that he directed and wrote the film.
My takeaway is this... he LOVES what he does and that's all I need to know. Nothing in life matters beyond finding that fit... finding that groove where you get to be who you are and feel challenged. Wise dude... If I met him, I'd just say thank you. Thank you for the craft you share...
He's so animated
Talks with his whole body, the camera struggles to stay focused on him.and I love it.
I feel like I've grown up watching him and watched him grow. I like all iterations of JGL
I could hear Joseph Gordon-Levitt talk about the whole of his film career, he is an incredible actor and truly has honed in on his profession. I always look forward to seeing him in future projects, as an actor or as a director.
Probably my favorite actor ever. Such a down to earth and cool dude. Love everything I’ve seen him in and can’t wait to see him more
Have u seen his new movie Flora & Son?
I had a massive crush on him after seeing Angels in the Outfield and I've been a fan of his ever since. All through 3rd Rock, his more indie films, HitRecord... he always entertains, drama-free and just seems like a cool person.
The way he looks and sounds when he mentions Heath Ledger in Dark Knight 🥺🥺
yeah i feel so bad for him. losing a friend is hard even years later
I started crying...!
You could absolutely tell how much fun the cast was having in "10 Things I Hate About You"! 😁 It's in my top 5 favorite comedies. Also really liked "50/50" so too bad that wasn't on here.
As somebody who has gone through cancer, that is my favorite JGL movie, and it's the most realistic cancer movie of all time.
500 days of summer would blow your mind
50/50 is great
i love how genuine he is after all these years being in the spotlight. it’s so refreshing
smh they didn’t mention his role in that 70’s show😪😪
I was waiting for that one 😓😓
@@Trdj45 it was only one episode
vg4life ik but i wanted his side onto why his role wasn’t reoccurring, as it was supposed to be
One of the worst TV shows ever made.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is everything what is good in the world
Sad that they skipped over 50/50. It's one of my favorite movies of his.
Ssoooo underrated!
Treasure Planet was my first fave JGL movie until 500 Days of Summer existed. I admire him cause he's underrated, unproblematic, and is married to a mathematician/IT person.
Treasure Planet was also his last movie before his break and he did it while studying his French degree.
Then it was Manic in 99 with Zooey Deschanell
I just watched Mysterious Skin. It was an amazing acting. I'm speechless.
Have you seen his 🎥 Manic. He met Zooey deschannel in 1999 it’s a perfect double feature that mysterious skin
I seriously hope that he’ll talk about Treasure Planet someday. Can’t even explain how much that movie meant for me and my childhood
First movie I saw
A HIT!!!!
@@BearagamoWoods I think so I actually would go a step further and say it's on my top 100 films ever
I watched this video hoping that he’ll talk about treasure planet.... ugh

His hair is a whole lotta party in the back. Those curls were bouncing.

His interviews always make me feel like I'm just listening to a good friend tell stories... i genuinely love him so much ❤
He is such a talented actor, with great charisma and personality.
The tone in his voice and his face when he said ‘because of Heath’ showed some much emotion and sadness. I love Joseph so much, he seems like such a nice guy. He’s an amazing actor, he’s funny and he’s attractive. He so underrated. His deep voice is gorgeous and so is he

I have nothing but awe and respect for JGL. One of my favorite things he has done was "Inception". That hallway fight scene is just INSANE, when you think about it. But I can't imagine any other actor or stunt crew to do that sequence. Off-screen, he seems like a warm, genuine, down-to-earth man. Kudos to him and any future success he has.
I’ve missed him so much! He was adorable in “10 Things I Hate About You” so I’m glad he went through with it.
I wanted to hear him talk about Tom Hardy and Cillian Murphy on Inception.

I really wish this would’ve been longer. I could listen to him talk for hours in depth about his movies or just film and things in general. You can see how passionate he is when he talks about it.
Maybe be they can do a part 2 with him. 😉
Sara01977 I reallllly hope that there is!
Agree! If they ever make a part 2, he can literally talk about every single movie in his career like 50/50 and The Walk
He has a podcast!
one of the only break downs that i’ve watched fully. he’s so well spoken and humble. i love him even more now 🥰🥰🥰
they shouldve had him talk about his role in mysterious skin aswell. an absolutely jaw-dropping, raw, incredible performance by him in that one.
That Robert Redford moment is a slice of pure gold. The confidence it would have given him to hear a Hollywood legend like Redford say “I never hit my marks” - not to mention the conceited effort to keep it quiet, as if he was telling him a secret no one else knew.
Wil Wheaton tells a story about William Shatner that’s the EXACT opposite - where Shatner was mean, short and just generally demeaning towards him (the first time the two met, when Wheaton was a child actor).
It’s very telling to a persons strength of character in how they treat their subordinates (and indeed children). Redford was a class act. He helped change the actor’s role in Hollywood - absolute legend.
So strange he was worried about them not financing 500 days because he and Zoe weren't big enough names! We watched that movie BECAUSE JGL was in it! He was already a big name to me after seeing him in third rock and Brick. Loved Brick! Loved seeing his career grow and grow. He's so underrated. Hesher is a personal fave! Can't believe that's not even mentioned here! He's incredible! Love his movies. They're always phenomenonal!
Gutted they skipped Mysterious Skin. The most devastating film I’ve ever seen that really stuck with me and had an indescribable impact. His performance is simply incredible and I gained so much respect for him as an actor after seeing that film.
500 Days of Summer and Inception are my two favorites on this list, and 2 of my favorite movies of all time!
I agree!
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is a true artist. Big fan of his.
I love this man's honesty about his career. I'm so glad to see that he's had such a successful acting career. I'm always worried for child actors because the business can be so brutal to them.
Mysterious Skin, Brick, and Manic are the movies I think of when I think Joseph Gordon Levitt. He just was so good, and committed to the roles, and emotional. The absolute best.
I was waiting for him to talk about his first and only animated character he played, which was Jim Hawkins in Treasure Planet. It's a great Disney experimental film.
