Yeah he definitely has made some great films so far. He is really inspiring me to get sober too cause I have an issue with over drinking on weekends and quite frankly seeing how happy and healthy he is... I am going to pursue sobriety!
Easy target. A few years ago, tabloids media was vicious, more so thn today. Many big celebrities suffered - Britney, Lindsay Lohan, Michael Jackson, and so on. They picked popular targets, and threw all their strength to pick them apart and tear them down. The flavour those early tabloids set is still followed by quite a few media outlets today.
Ben had a lot of great insights to add about Sacha's work, felt like he was moderating for a lot of it. That's more fun than just having an interviewer asking them each questions
Happy to see Ben doing so well! It's not easy face your addiction and keep it under control for the rest of your life. He is a brilliant actor, director, writer and producer! Sasha is also brilliant, I love him since Ali G.
This was an exquisite interview with some of the best questions asked by a man who doesn't consider himself an interviewer! Well done and Sasha Oh my word! I learnt so much about him!
@@MrJoker3571 Thanks indeed. I think most normal people had the same reaction. It's the gesture that says: "oh fuck, we should have a whole 5-hour episode only discussing why this is absolutely fucked-up and unacceptable, but we can't just fix this shit overnight". It's despair, really. This year, they had a Nazi stage, FFS! How do we fix a shit this big?
I like Ben Affleck more and more each time I see him. Which is something I NEVER thought I'd say. Sacha is a genius. Which is something I've ALWAYS said.
Ben: I'm not a good interviewer . . . . Also Ben: 🗣 "Wasn't that just the ultimate test in acting... Maintaining your character under the intense scrutiny of people who were immensely suspicious of you FOR FIVE DAYS?!!!" Fantastic back and forth!! Loved this one!
I really hope Ben Affleck recieves his first Oscar Nomination in the Acting Category for this, this is easily his best performance and definitely his most Intimate and personal one. He absolutely nailed this role, loved him in The Way Back.
Brilliant! So fascinating and inspiring to hear 2 world class innovators speak earnestly with each other while enjoying the good humor of artist comrades. Thank You, Variety!
I love Sacha's disguise shenanigans but I also love seeing him in serious stuff like Hugo or this year's The Trial of the Chicago 7, which he was great in
so enjoyable. two uniquely brilliant artists and both have the reputation of being very smart. I want to see them work together. Ben and Sasha are worthy of Oscar noms - and winning. thanks guys.
If Sasha Baron Cohen can get in anywhere in the world as anyone and talk to anyone, especially powerfull people...Well... Edit note: Ben Affleck is stil a awesome dude. Always loved his acting and movies also the ones he made.
Sasha giving props to Ben for pulling of a drunk scene while being sober Then I think to the Borat winery skit and how he managed to down 28 legit glasses of wine and still pull off a great scene as borat while clearly wasted 😂 A whole different ball game
I have loved ben for years, same with Sascha Proud of ben for enduring thru the shit. I try not to read or believe the trash mags but I know he went thru some stuff. Sascha is so adorable and talented and I would love to see him get back with Andy serkis and milo twomy for a revisiting of the jolly boys ❤️🔥
I shouldn't of been an actresses.... Maybe but I REALLLLLLLLLLLLLLy invested into all my WORK ... .... I did too much work and gathered so much information to know what will sell .... Kolovani
Sasha says «Sorkin is the greatest screenplay writer of our time»... to the man with an oscar for a screenplay. Poor Ben. i dont think that Ben fancies himself on Sorkins level, but still, it gotta sting edit: ahaha, as soon as i write this and unpause the video, Sasha remembers the same thing. lol
I know Ben has the right to clear his throat at home without covering his mouth, but it’s triggering lol. I agree that he looks healthy, excited, loving this convo, and in the best mood. I also feel like he maybe had a shot of whiskey and an adderall right before this. Just the right amount of energy 🤣
I pulled a spoof on Reagan in 84' and thanks so much Sacha, humorous acts work to expos e, we voted Trump out, take a bow Brother, and today Rudy faces a 1.3 billion $ law suit, for sure thankyou and take another bow. My gosh it takes guts and vision to perform the world change work. Comedy saves the actor again 😇 Ben can do something Sasha. You got him thinkin' ( Craft ) word...one more thing🍑🍑 just a thought, peachy king, thanks again Brothers
I feel like I am seeing Ben affleck for the first time. I never knew he could be this passionate. . . . More respect for sure.
Look at his work, for example, Argo and The Town. Without passion you can't create that.
Yeah he definitely has made some great films so far. He is really inspiring me to get sober too cause I have an issue with over drinking on weekends and quite frankly seeing how happy and healthy he is... I am going to pursue sobriety!
EXACTLY
Maybe it was all the "Sad Affleck" stuff but it's feels really great to see Ben smiling and laughing. he seemed to be totally enthralled with Sasha.
idk why his energy here kinda reminds me of his younger brother
AND looking sooo good too... looking younger and slimmer and fitter!!! Really great to see!
One would have to be dead to not be enthralled by SBC.
Ben Affleck has seemed not in his element since he did press for JL
He's sober from alcohol, he's fully healthy that's why he seems to be smiling and laughing a lot.
Affleck said he wasn't a good interviewer but....he's killing it. Lol!
Actors always say they aren’t good at something and then end up being good at it lol
He murdered that shit.
He should do a podcast where he interviews people!
This looked like the start of a friendship
Affleck looks so healthy, i'm so happy for him. he's a good actor and moviemaker, i hope he'll bring us more project
That is because ana de armas
@@erickesteban8700 i think she's one of the reason but addiction is more of a fight for yourself and he really did the work :)
Because he's single
Man looks 10-15 years younger
My man is getting it with Ana De Armas on the regular... he better look healthy
Ben is actually a good interviewer to be honest. He asks things and talks to him like a fan would.
Ben is so friendly don’t know why media is always after him.....
Jealous
Celebrities Media are jealous, and they have nothing to do except to give negative comments about Ben Affleck and JLO love life.
Easy target. A few years ago, tabloids media was vicious, more so thn today. Many big celebrities suffered - Britney, Lindsay Lohan, Michael Jackson, and so on. They picked popular targets, and threw all their strength to pick them apart and tear them down. The flavour those early tabloids set is still followed by quite a few media outlets today.
Because he hates the media.
Ben had a lot of great insights to add about Sacha's work, felt like he was moderating for a lot of it. That's more fun than just having an interviewer asking them each questions
That probably the director inside him
He was fired up
Him having experience directing, acting and producing certainly helps
I feel like I'm going to have a heart attack every time I see Sacha perform. It's either extremely brave what he's doing or it's totally insane.
I love when you can tell they're actually fans of each other's work! & when actors take the technique & work behind comedy as seriously as with drama
One of the best actors on actors episodes.
Happy to see Ben doing so well! It's not easy face your addiction and keep it under control for the rest of your life. He is a brilliant actor, director, writer and producer! Sasha is also brilliant, I love him since Ali G.
please have affleck do more of these. hes so good at it.
I would listen to a Ben Affleck podcast the guy is killing it in hosting this.
I love how they're like "we'll zoom tomorrow" and "we'll do this everyday." I wonder if they have?
This was an exquisite interview with some of the best questions asked by a man who doesn't consider himself an interviewer! Well done and Sasha Oh my word! I learnt so much about him!
That look Ben gave when Sasha said the security weren’t offended by him dressing up as a KKK member was hilarious.
Timestamp?
@@gaila.9852 9:15-9:50 is when the story pops up and Ben's reaction.

I could listen to Sacha's stories all day
I like Ben Affleck more and more each time I see him.
Which is something I NEVER thought I'd say.
Sacha is a genius. Which is something I've ALWAYS said.
i clicked for Sacha. i never get tired of hearing what he goes through for these roles and there's always something new from each interview.
Who is here from Ben reacting to ZSJL trailer edit?
Me
ME!!!!
Me😁
"Welcome to Brazil." *Inaudible laughter*
I guess majority
12:03 My God, the stories of Sacha in the making of Borat, and stuff...wow. This was a great interview, and so happy to see Ben like this ❤
0:32 He says “ way back” and the graphic says “The Way Back”.... great timing Ben 😁
Ben: I'm not a good interviewer
.

Also Ben: 🗣 "Wasn't that just the ultimate test in acting... Maintaining your character under the intense scrutiny of people who were immensely suspicious of you FOR FIVE DAYS?!!!"
Fantastic back and forth!! Loved this one!
Ben Affleck has been popping up on my youtube the last few weeks doing these type of interviews and he's brilliant at it. Looks quality as well
I really hope Ben Affleck recieves his first Oscar Nomination in the Acting Category for this, this is easily his best performance and definitely his most Intimate and personal one. He absolutely nailed this role, loved him in The Way Back.
It took me embarrassingly long to realize that's a mirror and not another person in the background of SBC 😂
I thought it was Isla 😂
If that helps, I didn't manage to realize this at all before having read your comment 😂
Oh my god
It took me until reading this..
One of the best episodes! Great to see them both gush about how much they appreciate a other work
Brilliant! So fascinating and inspiring to hear 2 world class innovators speak earnestly with each other while enjoying the good humor of artist comrades. Thank You, Variety!
I love Sacha's disguise shenanigans but I also love seeing him in serious stuff like Hugo or this year's The Trial of the Chicago 7, which he was great in
And in The Spy
Ben Affleck. Our Batfleck
My Batman. Not yours get lost.
@@_PeterGabriel1216 no, u.
they both have the best internet connections i've seen some celebrities have 😂
Love him so much and hearing his amazing experiences but omg LOL kudos to the editor trying to organize Sacha’s rambling storytelling 😂 ❤️
so enjoyable. two uniquely brilliant artists and both have the reputation of being very smart. I want to see them work together. Ben and Sasha are worthy of Oscar noms - and winning. thanks guys.
Sacha and ben are good at this actor on actor. Sacha is like the master of improvise, living with people as borat! Wow!
Our Batman 🦇
It's always nice to see actors and comedians understand and validate each other's work!! Applause for both!!
This was VERY educational and fascinating.
Two very creative minds in front and behind the camera
Ben Affleck ♥️🤗🦇
Ben, is an awesome actor and an awesome person.
This is a great interview.
Sasha is an actors actor and he doesn’t even know it.
Definitely one of the best actors just for dedication in itself
I hope Rudy gets nominated for best supporting actor!
Yeah his method acting was brilliant.
@Joshua Hammond Rudy Giuliani.
@Joshua Hammond I and Tiago know, we were being sarcastic. He more so than I.
A lock for worst supporting actor at the Razzies.
@Joshua Hammond Yes I do.
One of the best ones so far! Ben is the man and glad he's looking great again!
This episode was "Ben on Actors".
Although it was interesting listening to the making of 'Borat 2'.
Abbie Hoffman's portrayal should win him an Oscar
Wow, Ben is great! This is him! I am so proud of you 😍
Ben is looking alert and healthy. It looks like he's keeping off the sauce. Happy for him.
Ben! Dude you’re killing it. You look super healthy and happy 😊 and Sacha seriously? You kill me 😩🥺🥰🥰
If Sasha Baron Cohen can get in anywhere in the world as anyone and talk to anyone, especially powerfull people...Well...
Edit note: Ben Affleck is stil a awesome dude. Always loved his acting and movies also the ones he made.
literally never watched borat bc i couldn't imagine it being funny. but i'll watch it now.
Everyone on here is commenting about Ben and not Sascha lol Ben gets all the attention. Happy to see him looking good.
Everyone loves a redemption story.
Ben looks really healthy! Love it!

Fabulous! both of them!❤️
this is an interesting pair
Wow love those two❤
Ben is back 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Ben seems so nice
Good job, like you, are in a better place. You are a good actor, would like to see you in the movie 🎬.
Loved Borat from the beginning, it was as if Charlie Chaplin had begun to speak today!!
who remembers "Ukrainian Ben Affleck" joke from Brothers Grimsby
Not enough commercials Variety. Pls pack em higher and tighter next time. Smh.
Ben had to just randomly start talking about his own film as Sasha wasn’t asking him any questions and just talking about himself 😂
Ben affleck still way more successful than you will ever be and better than you at life.
Actually Sasha asked him about his film but they cut parts of the interviews to make It shorter. You can see on the written version of the interview.
@@channenh4657 wow. what a fan

There should be like a heist movie based on Sasha making his movies.
I feel like whoever edited this cut out too much
15 min in and it seems Sasha really did make it about himself lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ben just won't stop asking him questions though 🙈🙈🤣🤣
25 mins of Sacha and 10 mins of Ben 😂

Wow... that was great, but why u don't send Ben some good camera?

From one 6'3" to another.
Isnt Affleck like 6’4? Or something.

Sacha baron cohen is an ICON!
Brilliant !!
I know Ben has the right to clear his throat at home without covering his mouth, but it’s triggering lol. I agree that he looks healthy, excited, loving this convo, and in the best mood.
I also feel like he maybe had a shot of whiskey and an adderall right before this. Just the right amount of energy 🤣
I wonder what kind of movie they could work on together...
I just loved it.
I’m proud of Ben for going frontal in gone girl
Me too.
And they zoomed happily ever after.
I’m sorry but Ben.. is sooo handsome! Good for jlo
Who knew Ben could talk so much? 😄
Honestly I find Sachs humour rather freeing it so hilarious it is.
I pulled a spoof on Reagan in 84' and thanks so much Sacha, humorous acts work to expos e, we voted Trump out, take a bow Brother, and today Rudy faces a 1.3 billion $ law suit, for sure thankyou and take another bow.

20:34 Ben: In the moment of climax.
Ben making a pun?
The only decent human being in the "Borat, subsequent movie" was Tutah's babysitter.
The last question 😂😂😂
I am guessing Isla is in the background of the hotel lol
I think that's a mirror
Man I wish Ben comes back to play Batman in an hbo max tv show. I really like his version of the character.
I think he will. I want more back story and stuff with the Robin and joker confrontation.
Ben ❤💫
Lol Ben has that Bruce Wayne WiFi
Sacha baron cohen is a real decent man, and he is really a motivated human being!!!!
Sacha is such a fecking genius.
Did he say "lots of love lady"?😂😂😂😂
Matey? 😂 I'm not sure.
Why isn't the audio a podcast?
Ben is looking aladeen..
