He portrayed the role of Henry so well. And to hear him speak and discuss Henry is somewhat mind blowing. I say this because I dont know him at all, only as the actor, but in this interview he comes across as a intense, passionate, and a intelligent person.Someone you would want to sit with for hours and talk about anything and he could speak on the topic.Great insight!
Idk 'bout all that chatting, but id defjjitely bed em!!😖smdh lmao i KNOW im goin to hell!!😖i cant help it lmdao😛😆lmao hes just amazing looking! My Gawd!!lmao
5:21 "you just have to cut their heads off"... my mom walked in right when he said that and her face was priceless and I just busted up laughing trying to explained what he was talking about!
he seems so pretentious, i love it. not in any false way, but in a professerly way. he talks with the brooding passion, a conceit. it would almost be intimidating to debate him, or discuss anything. but i think i would sit there enraptured by every thought or idea. charming man, frightening man
he's one of the few actors who actually knows the information about the historical settings and what not around his character. hes very smart and passionate. gotta respect the man
I don't care if he's dramatic, makes him more sensual lol The show wouldn't be the same with a different actor. He's got a great insight on Henry and it help me to understand his character more...
Oh...absolutely!! They couldnt have picked a better actor! This guy rocks it! Just as much as the guy who was picked to play Freddie Mercury in the Queen movie. Ya no? Great choice of actors!
"...and Henry realizes that even if you really love somebody, including your sister, and they. try. to hurt you... You haf to cut their heads off." lmao
I am so GLAD for Jonathan that he has finally made his well-deserved big break... Of course he had to start working out those muscles to be noticed first. But I loved his earlier roles as well *faints*
Jonathan Rhys Meyers is so damn fine and he is such a fabulous actor, I love the Irish, I know that this is late But I also would like to send my condolences out to him and the rest of his family due to his mother Geraldine Meyers O'Keefe's late passing.
Why does every body think this man is high all the time, because you read all the crap in the magazines and newspaper. Why can't anybody see how brilliant this man is? Jonathan, speaking for me, I love you, I love the way you are, you are handsome beyond belief and a serious and wonderful actor. When you are acting in a role, people KNOW you are that person you are portraying!
+Sheryl Morris He was high all the time!!! doesn't mean he's not intelligent and beautiful., but it's the fact that he drinks a lot and create chaos in public.
Sheryl Morris I've never read anything about him being high all the time. He is an extraordinarily gifted actor and not too bad looking either! LOL I adore him as well. He was INSANELY good as Henry VIII! The best and most unique portrayal I've ever seen!
Oh?? Idk they were bashing him?!! Hmm maybe thats in England?? Ive not heard anything of the sort here in USA tho. Idk, maybe its the color of his eyes? His eyes r pretty lite colored. Hes fukn great!! Fine!!😛😆👊❤lmao
You know, they might have caught him for this interview right after shooting an epi or right before. He looks more tired than anything. Sad I can't see his beautiful eyes all that well. In every interview he's given, JRM has said that he knows the show is not true to history. He tries to make his Henry 'bigger' by accentuating his ambition and demeanor. I think he does a great job. JRM is believable as every single character he plays.
He's my Idol too! Got him as my Desk top picture (Tile mode) so got 15 pics of him in Tudor style clothes. Love the way he licks his lips when thinking what next to say. Very handsome man. Like the irish accent--his lips--eyes--Just everything really!
jonathan un tres grand acteur il est magistral dans les tudors je l'adore il peut tout jouer cest un immense acteur il meriterai un oscar pour son role dans henriiv
I love the way he says "earls." His voice is like butter, velvet and champagne all rolled into one. He gave the most amazing and unique portrayal of Henry VIII I have ever seen in my life. Anne talked Henry into executing More, She was a bitch.
haha i love how he talks so dramatic like he's really getting INTO the story of henry! '..and they try to hurt u, u HAVE to cut their heads off' LOL that just cracked me up
Holy Schmozz he is genuinely insightful -he genuinely understands what it was/is like for individuals...in past or resent times. Bloody intelligent and hot and extraordinary, Down Under says, “Job done awesome individual.” 👍
I know having pure english accents, was a bit off putting, and they could have tried to make them talk like the time a bit. Dont really know why they didnt, but everything else with "Rome" series, was spot on, plots, story, characters, even violence and sex, were very accurate to the Roman era. Theres even talk of a film coming out, following on from the series, which kind of proves Its success and forgiving of the whole "British accent" thing.
I love the way he licks his lips & half closes his eyes, he is so intense in the way he speaks & lives the part totally. I have him as my screen saver wearing his embroidered clothes worn in the Tudor series. I see him every time I start my iMac. He is male perfection.
I watched this and I literally have no idea what he actually said - I was so enthralled by his sexy accent and the way he talks! Anyway... now to watch it again to actually listen to the content LOL
Великий актёр Джонатан Рис Майерс, очень красивый, темпераментный, видно хороший человек в жизни ,покажите весь фильм полностью, так давно не видела его!!!
Cudnt have put it better myself, this is exactly how I see the generation of today, thats just how they are. Only they wud never see it themselves. Trouble is theres nothing that can be done to change this fact. Also this is kind of why a lot of films dont have the same quality or even have any kind of character like the old ones. Its the actors, and when they try to Imitate or do anything in the same kind of style, nodding to classic great films, it fails dismally, "Australia" e.g.
Agreed, your're right, trouble is thats kind of up to parents mostly, and if they dont have Interest, there isnt much chance. I admit I like some modern things today, of course, but I really favor and admire things from before my gen. I think Its Influences from my Grandparents, so I guess you could say, I've kind of been exposed to certain forms of "Classics," and therefore have an appreciation for them.
"Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to .... and so on." But no, I guess you have a point. Its just ashame that anything historical on tv today, has to be glossed over, simplified and over stylized, in order to be accepted by the generation. But, then again, maybe I should just think of it like majority of the youth, Its entertainment, and Its only history, that doesnt really matter today.
I have Jonathan as my screen saver so I know his face extremely well. I study his lips & eyes. I like the little bit above his top lip that is slightly unsemetrical. I like everything about him, particularly the way he licks his lips as he talks. I like his surety & his confidence, his dominance. I like strong characters.
I dont mean to be Insulting to the youth of today, but I do feel that History biopics and portrayals, can still be entertaining, fairly stylish, at the same time as being educational, and appealing to the youth. But I guess that isnt their fault exactly, Tv producers are the ones behind the entertainment, like you say. But at the same time, they themselves are just following what the young gen want and expect in their Tv value.
Yeah, thats what I was trying to say. See I think the trouble is today, we have saw everything in history, every major breakthrough, and Its hard to create anything truly "Original," and that really stands out today. Today's Actors, are so used to all the famous people that came before, and are also aware that alot of people became famous from things that maybe today, cud be classed as "Cheesey,old fashioned. Its kind of hard to explain.
To nemeth2009, do not be offended if an Irishman is playing Henry VIII: Henry was King of Ireland as well as King of England, and he was also of direct Welsh ancestry from the Princes of South Wales. So does it really matter?
there's something rather dark about Jonathan. he's rather scary. but i absolutely love him. i think he's an amazing actor. probably the best in hollywood at the moment.
Bloody 'ell! He sounds Irish, English and American - I'm confused. I've only heard his Geordie accent in Bend It Like Beckham and his English accent in The Tudors. Prior to working on the Tudors, what accent did he have?
I think he falls into the trap of finding it hard to separate himself from his character. I suppose this is very common in acting, it must have been difficult when tutors ended of him.
He portrayed the role of Henry so well. And to hear him speak and discuss Henry is somewhat mind blowing. I say this because I dont know him at all, only as the actor, but in this interview he comes across as a intense, passionate, and a intelligent person.Someone you would want to sit with for hours and talk about anything and he could speak on the topic.Great insight!
U r in awe...
Idk 'bout all that chatting, but id defjjitely bed em!!😖smdh lmao i KNOW im goin to hell!!😖i cant help it lmdao😛😆lmao hes just amazing looking! My Gawd!!lmao
Plus Eàsy on the Eyes 😮 But drinking too much got him in Trouble & His Career has to be rebuilt, Praying for A Great Come Back 💗You can do this JRM 💗
Incredible actor, I feel like I should be seeing him in more films and shows. He really is a great actor.
His very great role was in Velvet Goldmine with Ewan McGregor, Christian Bale and Toni Collette. Check it out
i love that hint of superiority in his eyes, he is so in character
this is so amazing love love love him!
5:21 "you just have to cut their heads off"... my mom walked in right when he said that and her face was priceless and I just busted up laughing trying to explained what he was talking about!
he seems so pretentious, i love it. not in any false way, but in a professerly way.
he talks with the brooding passion, a conceit. it would almost be intimidating to debate him, or discuss anything. but i think i would sit there enraptured by every thought or idea.
charming man, frightening man
he was incredible in the tudors!! one of my favorite shows
I’ve watched the whole series .. Six times 🤣
I see u more Henry the way u played that role…u were so perfect in that role…I m in luv wid u….so ferocious
Excellent actor ! I hope he will take care his health !
he's one of the few actors who actually knows the information about the historical settings and what not around his character. hes very smart and passionate. gotta respect the man
i never saw much of his work until i started watching the tudors last week. what an amazing actor.
He was NUCKING FUTS in the the Tutors! GREAT actor!
i'm in love with his eyes!
I enjoyed that series sooooo much. Jrm created a beautiful performance
Never thought I'd actually agree with a justification of Henry's behavior. Nicely done JRM!
Brilliant series and brilliant actor.
He strikes me as an empath. Very intelligent man.
I don't care if he's dramatic, makes him more sensual lol The show wouldn't be the same with a different actor. He's got a great insight on Henry and it help me to understand his character more...
Oh...absolutely!! They couldnt have picked a better actor! This guy rocks it! Just as much as the guy who was picked to play Freddie Mercury in the Queen movie. Ya no? Great choice of actors!
"...and Henry realizes that even if you really love somebody, including your sister, and they. try. to hurt you... You haf to cut their heads off." lmao
Only this man can play THE KINGS!!!
Phenomenal actor. He was fantastic in that role. If you haven't seen it, Match Point was a really good movie and he was great in that too.
I am so GLAD for Jonathan that he has finally made his well-deserved big break... Of course he had to start working out those muscles to be noticed first. But I loved his earlier roles as well *faints*
Jonathan Rhys Meyers is so damn fine and he is such a fabulous actor, I love the Irish, I know that this is late But I also would like to send my condolences out to him and the rest of his family due to his mother Geraldine Meyers O'Keefe's late passing.
Why would he wear a muscle shirt? I want to hear what he's saying.
Alicia Coburg Down here in Texas they call those T-shirts "wife beaters." Please, no disrespect to abused wives. It's just a shirt.
Elizabeth F. 😂😂im from Texas too lmao ive never heard it called muscle shirt either
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
I LOVE THIS mans FACE
THE rest IS just frosting
ON THE CAKE...😍😘😋
🇺🇸💓🇺🇸❤🇺🇸
So freaking gorgeous!
Brilliant guy and actor. Blown away.
Why does every body think this man is high all the time, because you read all the crap in the magazines and newspaper. Why can't anybody see how brilliant this man is?

Di ddspeakup Good thing he finally calmed down and now has a baby
yes Jonathan is an incredible actor and surely a very clever person ... well is is Irish, you know ??
Sheryl Morris I've never read anything about him being high all the time. He is an extraordinarily gifted actor and not too bad looking either! LOL I adore him as well. He was INSANELY good as Henry VIII! The best and most unique portrayal I've ever seen!
Oh?? Idk they were bashing him?!! Hmm maybe thats in England?? Ive not heard anything of the sort here in USA tho. Idk, maybe its the color of his eyes? His eyes r pretty lite colored. Hes fukn great!! Fine!!😛😆👊❤lmao
I love listening to him talk. He's very smart.
He's very inteligent.Must be nice to have a conversation with him.
Un très très grand acteur une série pleine de rebondissements avec des beaux acteurs et actrice j'ai adoré
"Bounces hard against Ann Bolyn" hahahaha
You know, they might have caught him for this interview right after shooting an epi or right before. He looks more tired than anything. Sad I can't see his beautiful eyes all that well.

"Wolsey is corrupt so Henry doesn't have to be."
This certainly hit me harder than it should have.
I love his accent, and how he says :You know all the time!Amazing!
He's my Idol too! Got him as my Desk top picture (Tile mode) so got 15 pics of him in Tudor style clothes. Love the way he licks his lips when thinking what next to say. Very handsome man. Like the irish accent--his lips--eyes--Just everything really!

Love you Meyers. You really commit to a role which his further evidenced here. I hope that you heal and are doing well.
I don´t care what he´s talking about...he could read the London telephone book aloud and I would still watch this video.
Gosh he´s so handsome!!
My god, I can’t get enough! Ordering this series!
He is a Genius :D
Greatest show ever
❤ Jonathan ist ein großartiger Schauspieler und ein Interessanter, Wunderschöner Mann ❤
so beautiful!!! so perfect! and I love his accent!
King of the V-necks
haha i love how he talks so dramatic like he's really getting INTO the story of henry! '..and they try to hurt u, u HAVE to cut their heads off' LOL that just cracked me up
LUV HIM. Loved The Tudors!
LOL! I Love What He Says At 0:51 '....Or Nobody Wanted To See You.' I Think That's An Amazing Line! :P
Handsome King Henry- Jonathan ❤️🥰😍
Holy Schmozz he is genuinely insightful -he genuinely understands what it was/is like for individuals...in past or resent times. Bloody intelligent and hot and extraordinary, Down Under says, “Job done awesome individual.” 👍
Great acting
brilliant actor
me encanta este actor Jonathan, desde que lo vi en "Elvis el comienzo" me fascino, es un excelente actor y guapisimo!!
I like what he says about Moore. Brilliant
he is sooo beautiful
Ich bin ja sooo froh, dass The Tudors jetzt auch in Deutschland läuft !!!
Danke, ProSieben :-)
love his accent
Around Cork and Limerick in Ireland there are a good few guys that look quite like Johnny here. Same facial features.
I know having pure english accents, was a bit off putting, and they could have tried to make them talk like the time a bit. Dont really know why they didnt, but everything else with "Rome" series, was spot on, plots, story, characters, even violence and sex, were very accurate to the Roman era. Theres even talk of a film coming out, following on from the series, which kind of proves Its success and forgiving of the whole "British accent" thing.
Ugh, damn. He could read me a phonebook and I'd swoon.
Henry was never as beautiful as this man lol
i love the tudors it is my favorite show i like natalie dormer and love jrm
me encanta!!! es lo máximo!!!
Good insight, the show is awesome. When I become the king of England I'll use it for references.
this should be called ' the henry viii interview - from hell '
dont forget addicts are sick people who are suffering most for years in silence,they need all the love and support they can get...
I love the way he licks his lips & half closes his eyes, he is so intense in the way he speaks & lives the part totally. I have him as my screen saver wearing his embroidered clothes worn in the Tudor series. I see him every time I start my iMac. He is male perfection.
ok
maybe you should see a psy
I watched this and I literally have no idea what he actually said - I was so enthralled by his sexy accent and the way he talks!
Anyway... now to watch it again to actually listen to the content LOL
His eyes are very interesting
He just got out again last month. Let's hope he stays clean this time.

I literally had to restrain myself from leaping at my computer screen and slobbering all over it.
I love when he says OXFORD!! *Q*_____
he is a wonderful hott actor...and the best

Your features look like Simon Le Bon. Bellisimo!!!
I can not imagine, read and explain a book as you do, plus act... I guess it is a hard job.
Congratulations.
Still we miss him
I have Jonathan as my screen saver so I know his face extremely well. I study his lips & eyes. I like the little bit above his top lip that is slightly unsemetrical. I like everything about him, particularly the way he licks his lips as he talks. I like his surety & his confidence, his dominance. I like strong characters.

:50....Love love love so cute
@knightsintodreams a thoughtful professional actor. Moreover, he's also unusually frank
I dont mean to be Insulting to the youth of today, but I do feel that History biopics and portrayals, can still be entertaining, fairly stylish, at the same time as being educational, and appealing to the youth.

Gawd he is so hott!! I remember him from the days of Bend It Like Beckham and he was just as hot then, but a budding actor
Me, watching an interview with Jonathan for the first time: oh he’s Irish... word...
DAMN HE'S SO HOOOOOOOT!
Peri Diar Batter
then the original one
I think he falls into the trap of finding it hard to separate himself from his character. I suppose this is very common in acting, it must have been difficult when tutors ended of him.
he is up there with elvis!
Those are some smokin bedroom eyes!!!
If good looks came by the minute, this fox would be an hour!!
YOUR MAGICSTICK...
It's not love, my dear, it's called being cruel.
I just maybe saw the most handsome man on earth.
I mean it's a tie with Charles Brandon.
