Americans don’t know this but this man is filthy rich. It’s true that his new show Lupin is doing great in the US but he has been rich for over a decade. Omar Sy doesn’t need the us market to stay wealthy. Jimmy talks to him as if he just made it because he moved to America. He bought a 7 million dollar house in LA before Lupin. That goes to show how good of a career he has had in Europe and mainly in french cinema. One of my favourite actors of all time. I’ve seen most of his work. I understand and speak french and to appreciate his acting work it is necessary you understand what he is saying.
He is actually in awe because Omar did something breakthrough with US audiences. But American women have been reading subtitles for quite some time now. It's really amazing that he is able to do that with male audience.
Omar Sy was part of the amazing movie Les Intouchables, the original French version of The Upside. No offense to Bryan Cranston and Kevin Hart, but NOBODY can touch Omar Sy and François Cluzet. They have an amazing chemistry.

well the inhabitants here are not aware of that. the school system is not particularly good. and he makes his money by boiling down complicated matters into silly jokes.
Jimmy really made me cringe here. Omar seems like such a wonderful, charismatic guy and we're focusing on how he learnt English? And about how he must have watched American shows? Why not ask about his career? I really don't get how unabashedly, and almost ignorantly American Jimmy can be sometimes.
As a German I can say that we love Omar here . He is such a interesting person with great movies but this interview was really a missing opportunity. It’s crazy how big the differences between European and American people are .
@@RosablueHandMade I agree. I got my wife to watch Lupin, and I told her, I just love his smile! Feeling blue? Bam! pic of Omar Sy smiling. I feel better.
He grew up in poor heavily dense buildings of first gen immigrants area and despite all the hardship all he is known for is his "communicative" laugh and humour!
This dude is talented, funny, with a joyful personality, but above all he’s a VERY HUMBLE man. I had the chance to meet him at the mosque I used to go to in Los Angeles around 2013-2014, and he’s just so down to earth. After the prayer, He hung out with us and engaged in small talk for like 30 min, talking about basket ball, telling jokes and even being made fun of. Of course only few people knew he was famous and filthy rich, but I was nonetheless impressed by his genuineness and humility. And to top it off, it wasn’t a one time thing too. Since that time I gained respect for him.
I guess that's why he moved to LA. He can be treated, his children can be treated like everybody else, more or less. That's a "luxury" he could afford. Americans don't know him, or barely, he's small potatoes in LA
Now you get to know why everyone loves him so much in France. Everyone. He’s the best version of all of us. This interview was a complete waste of his time and talents.
@@marcosgarces1666 I think they are just pointing out how self-centered that comment was. As if the award he won was "less" because the real deal are the Oscar's, and that was just the French version. To be fair, I get where you come from, but I feel that the interviewer was being quite condescending at certain times of the interview, that's why I think the comment about the French Oscar's was bad received.
@Simon If there is any award that actors want on their shelves it is an Oscar. I am not diminishing the worth of any other award, but to deny the value and power of an Oscar in comparison is ridiculous.
It’s just to put it into perspective for his American audience. I’m sure if he had only said the name of the award most people would not know wtf he was talking about
Honestly i can understand how Jimmy uses it as an element of context. But he could have ask other questions about his career like his role in "intouchable" which is probably still the best grossing foreign film in the world to this day. Funny fact it was remade a few years ago for US audiences with "the Upside" where his character was interpreted by Kevin Hart. The original is way better. He also had supporting roles in the x-men franchise and Jurassic World.
It’s really sad..Americans aren’t interested in the rest of the world. Even in post soviet countries people know what’s going on in Europe. I’m from Azerbaijan, and here we know Omar Sy, and we love his movies! The same is in Russia, Georgia, Kazakhstan.
Gosh I really cannot deal with American obnoxiousness. "The French 'equivalent' of the Oscars" and equating success to being known by Americans. They think the world revolves around them! We Europeans have our own stars, our own actors/musicians, not everything has to relate to Americans.
its an american show mostly watched by americans, wtf did you expect for him to say? its a comparison most people will understand.. (im dutch btw, so european)
I'm Senegalese and honestly we couldn't be happier for Omar. He deserved all the success, he really worked for it. However I wish Jimmy would ask him more about his career but I have to say American people are quite self centered, ( I do have American friends don't get me wrong) everything he is asking is like do you know about us?
I am American and I agree with you. I would have loved to hear about his Senegalese and French background and experiences. As well as his other acting performances.
"did you have TV over there? Oh damn you have internet and Netflix too in Europe? How did you feel the first time you entered a bathroom? That must have been quite a change,right?"
For all you new Omar Sy fans, watch the original untouchables “Les Intouchables” it is one of the best films ever made and Omar is absolutely incredible in it.
He has a lovely character and Jimmy didn’t explore that at all, learning English shouldn’t have been the focus. I think Trevor Noah would be a better interviewer.
I suppose Jimmy was trying to make Omar Sy more relatable to his audience, Trevor's fans are already "open" to listen to other people's experience, since he comes from SouthAfrica.
Right?? My Ex tried to get me to watch the Kevin Hart version and I was like, 'Hell no. You must be out of your damn mind.' Original, French version 4 eva. 💗💗💗
I have never even heard of 'The Upside' but thanks to you I will recoil from it should it ever cross my path ;-) 'Intouchables' is an absolutely fantastic movie that can't and shouldn't be remade.

On the contrary, Omar helped me learn french. I loved Les Intouchables and would watch it over and over to try and understand and repeat the dialogue from the film. He's an amazing and talented actor.
@E E it's original in the mean of inspired by the character of lupin in fact there nothing left from the books. The books was wrote in the 10-20s he was a king of disguise only stealing riches he have a chauffeur accomplice and seducing all women he was around.
That is in fact close to how a native French speaker of the Americas would pronounce Lupin. I imagine a lot of Americans learned Louisien/Acadien/Québécois/Old French pronunciation rules in schools, and people who actually make the effort to learn French growing up ended up learning Parisian/Metropolitan French instead.
This is such a culturally tone-deaf interview. The moment Jimmy proudly stated Americans never venture outside their own media, I knew we were in for a rough ride
@@auntisthenes2754 Yeah but X-Men movies belonged to 20th Century Fox. Now Disney had bought them they can basically re-cast and retell the whole story, The New Mutants was the last 20th Century Fox X-Men movie.

As a European growing up loving French movies: good for you guys, hope you get more recognition now from Americans as well! And congrats to Omar he is an all time fav!

Agreed, not even top 100. But he's a pretty nice guy. He was hilarious when he had a segment on a variety show about 10 years ago alongside his friend Fred Testot. I don't get all the fuss with Lupin when we have much better shows here like Kaamelott. When will Netflix buy it? I'm sure it translates well to English.
@@renobutters you are hard to put it out of top 100. I dare to disagree, I'm french also, keeping the comment in English for everyone. I did a nice conversion from comedy to acting anything. Maybe not top 10 as said previously, because France produced a mots of huge talents, but not so far , he is just starting..
His praise & laughter when jimmy said ‘ you don’t have to explain why’ feels worth more than one rewatch. What an authentic and warm guy - I could watch him all day! Looking forward to watching your continued success!! Edit: and his dig at helping us read at the end. ‘I’m happy to help’ BRILLIANT!!bravo bravo.
Lupin is a great show mostly because he is great. I have seen a few of his movies and he is fantastic in all of them. He is hilarious in French, hopefully when his English improves, Americans would be able to enjoy his funny side. His movie intouchables was beautiful, but I made the mistake, some years later, to watch the American version and it was terrible.
Fun fact : many years ago Omar Sy was a comedian in a duet with a guy name Fred, they were just hilarious, in one of their skit, Fred was a crazy psychic and predicted to Omar (who was playing a maid who just lost his job ) that one day he would become a great movie star in the US ( or Canada don't remember ) and that he should take all his family and move there. That's exactly what Omar did years later, I'm so proud of him he is from a very humble background and he rised up to the top in France and now in USA 💖
I guess maybe Mr Jimmy Kimmel was trying to make him more relatable for the American audience (speculation) but this was a very shallow interview and just left me wondering why there weren't more of the types of questions he asks his other guests. Omar Sy is captivating and it would be cool to have been given more challenging and/ or personal questions, not like (how it came across to me), "Hey. You're in America now, right? So what American things do you know? Let's qualify you."
I see your point and totally relate with it, but I think mostly was to keep it simple for him due to the language barrier, I guess if Kimmel dove too deeply in to things, it would make it harder for Sy to get his point across, dragging out his spot on the show for longer than it was scheduled for
Youre overthinking it. I swear everyone is soft nowadays. Go walk up to that man and tell him all that crap you just posted. I guarantee he would be confused
As a foreigner living in France I'm so happy that Omar is finally getting international popularity, this guy was amazing in The Intouchables, also he was the Interpol agent in Inferno, and the velociraptors carer in Jurassic World (among other roles) so he's not new in this business. He has an amazing charisma and deserves all this attention
I remember him as a young actor starting out and looking afraid, yet always catching the camera man's eye every time he smiled. Look at him now. I'm glad French talent, and overall European talent are being recognized.

Jimmy Kimmel is a terrible interviewer when it comes to non-American guests. So much cringe. He epitomizes the typical American character the rest of the world has in their minds.
Tell me about it! As a European I cringe at most of these American hosts, they just perpetuate the stereotype of the American who thinks the US is the be-all and end-all. They think we need American support for success, little do they know there are super famous people across the world that most Americans have no clue about.
Trust me man.. It's quite hard..my mom always makes mistakes when she speaks English.. Cuz she mixes her mother tongue with hindi and English.. That's 3 languages.. And ends up messing everything 😆
I'm freaking happy to see Omar reaching so many people around the world. He deserves every success and I wish for even more people to discover what a great and luminous person he is. Too bad Jimmy didn't talk about his career in France but let's hope there'll be even more opportunities in the future!

A young French actor who has played a number of tragic roles in French film and TV but is hilarious in contrast to his characters when speaking English is Félix Lefebvre.
Don't worry, he is probably funny in English for other reasons, (that he doesn't necessarily control and understand himself yet...) and he is obviously appreciated.
For the americans who are searching from where you know him, he's the guy in "Jurassic World" who takes care of the velociraptors he even played in the X-men: Days of Future Past" movie, played as BISHOP just an awesome legend who deserves more credit
Omar Sy is too humble to talk about how popular he is in France. Fantastic comedian and incredible actor and philanthropist!!! So happy his career took off in the USA he is a gem!!!
Jimmy Kimmel has so many stupid questions about american stuff !! Never thought it could have a wrost interview since Christoph Waltz but here we are. He really needs to understand there’s a whole world out there with other culture.

@@lombax316 And they’ll never learn if it’s always dumbed down. Jimmy could have at least said César and then explained what it is. I feel like Colbert, John Oliver, even Seth Myers would definitely have given that.
Omar grew up in the ghetto close to Paris , He worked a lot and became the famous comic in France 🇫🇷 in the 2000's (Omar & Fred, etc ), acting in dozens of movies. He gained fame abroad with the 2011 comedy-drama film The Intouchables, which earned him the César Award for Best Actor. Sy became the first Black recipient of the award. He is an inspiration for all young people in France who wish to succeed. Omar you are my guy !

Omar Sy is an amazing actor! Such a chill, humble guy. Loved his performances in Jurassic World, The Call of the Wild, X-men, his portrayal of Assane Diop in Lupin is my personal favorite, the vibe of the character is absolutely incredible, Omar steals the show in every scene.
You may not have liked what you saw, but in the US, that's going to get him a lot of recognition and if he continues to grow then that beautiful story you're talking about would eventually come out because of the growing interest.
This man right here has got the best laugh ever, for exemple when he attends a broadcasted TV ceremony in France, you can hear his laugh burst in the entire room and you don't even need the camera to show his face to recognize it's him.

Right?? My Ex tried to get me to watch the Kevin Hart version and I was like, 'Hell no. You must be out of your damn mind.' Original, French version 4 eva. 💗💗💗
Preach on .
I'm glad I saw the real version before the American 😊
I have never even heard of 'The Upside' but thanks to you I will recoil from it should it ever cross my path ;-) 'Intouchables' is an absolutely fantastic movie that can't and shouldn't be remade.

He has such a brilliant smile. I'm glad to see a black man so happy and joyous.

That is in fact close to how a native French speaker of the Americas would pronounce Lupin. I imagine a lot of Americans learned Louisien/Acadien/Québécois/Old French pronunciation rules in schools, and people who actually make the effort to learn French growing up ended up learning Parisian/Metropolitan French instead.
This is such a culturally tone-deaf interview. The moment Jimmy proudly stated Americans never venture outside their own media, I knew we were in for a rough ride

this guy doesn't have to say a word and makes you laugh hahaha love his big smile & laugh!
What a delightful guy. Lupin is a terrific show . Highly recommend watching it if you haven’t already begun
Omar Sy is HUUUUUGE IN FRANCE...
This guy deserves every single bit of his success.
He is a true inspiration and one of a kind actor , his acting is so authentic.
I hope they will translate all his movies to englisch so the people will see it first hand.
Really Hats off to him , Chapeau Mr. Sy !
His films shouldn't be "translated" or dubbed. It's best to watch him or any actor in their own language with subtitles.

I'd dare saying that this is one of the best french actors ever.
As a French guy who loves him, I'd say he's not even in the top 10
Agreed, not even top 100. But he's a pretty nice guy. He was hilarious when he had a segment on a variety show about 10 years ago alongside his friend Fred Testot. I don't get all the fuss with Lupin when we have much better shows here like Kaamelott. When will Netflix buy it? I'm sure it translates well to English.
@@renobutters you are hard to put it out of top 100. I dare to disagree, I'm french also, keeping the comment in English for everyone.
I did a nice conversion from comedy to acting anything. Maybe not top 10 as said previously, because France produced a mots of huge talents, but not so far , he is just starting..
@Yanick & Reno: Haters plain and simple
@@renobutters Not even top 100? Bro i would really like to know atleast your top 10

Edit: and his dig at helping us read at the end. ‘I’m happy to help’ BRILLIANT!!bravo bravo.
Lupin is a great show mostly because he is great.
I have seen a few of his movies and he is fantastic in all of them.
He is hilarious in French, hopefully when his English improves, Americans would be able to enjoy his funny side.
His movie intouchables was beautiful, but I made the mistake, some years later, to watch the American version and it was terrible.
Folks don't know he is a comedian and improv legend
Intouchables is incredible right?!!!! Has such a charm to it. 2 amazing performances in that
People have to see "Demain tout commance" it's a powerful movie but very funny as well!
Demain tout commance is really good yeah!
💯
"I hate to mention that but... Jason Bourne" that light roast for Matt Damon is too damn good lmao

Tellement content de te voir briller 🤩 🔥
Ouffff enfin un commentaire français ☺️☺️
pourquoi ta arreter les videos ptn
Fun fact : many years ago Omar Sy was a comedian in a duet with a guy name Fred, they were just hilarious, in one of their skit, Fred was a crazy psychic and predicted to Omar (who was playing a maid who just lost his job ) that one day he would become a great movie star in the US ( or Canada don't remember ) and that he should take all his family and move there. That's exactly what Omar did years later, I'm so proud of him he is from a very humble background and he rised up to the top in France and now in USA 💖
"mhhmm je valide"
Thank you. I learned more about him from you than this obnoxious interview.
fred c’était une vraie voyante 😂😂😂
Haha it was Australia but yea I always think about that as well
Thats insane
This guy is a national treasure in France and seeing him be appreciated by the US is such a pride✊ also he has the best laugh ever 😂
I only have one wish, and that's for Jimmy to read the comments below!
Right!!!
His aura is so contagious. Had a huge smile watching this interview. What a person 🖤🖤
I guess maybe Mr Jimmy Kimmel was trying to make him more relatable for the American audience (speculation) but this was a very shallow interview and just left me wondering why there weren't more of the types of questions he asks his other guests. Omar Sy is captivating and it would be cool to have been given more challenging and/ or personal questions, not like (how it came across to me), "Hey. You're in America now, right? So what American things do you know? Let's qualify you."
I see your point and totally relate with it, but I think mostly was to keep it simple for him due to the language barrier, I guess if Kimmel dove too deeply in to things, it would make it harder for Sy to get his point across, dragging out his spot on the show for longer than it was scheduled for
Youre overthinking it. I swear everyone is soft nowadays. Go walk up to that man and tell him all that crap you just posted. I guarantee he would be confused
As a foreigner living in France I'm so happy that Omar is finally getting international popularity, this guy was amazing in The Intouchables, also he was the Interpol agent in Inferno, and the velociraptors carer in Jurassic World (among other roles) so he's not new in this business. He has an amazing charisma and deserves all this attention
I remember him as a young actor starting out and looking afraid, yet always catching the camera man's eye every time he smiled. Look at him now. I'm glad French talent, and overall European talent are being recognized.

Tell me about it! As a European I cringe at most of these American hosts, they just perpetuate the stereotype of the American who thinks the US is the be-all and end-all. They think we need American support for success, little do they know there are super famous people across the world that most Americans have no clue about.

“Soixa- sixty percent” loooool the troubles of being multilingual

Am just sad that he's not enough comfortable yet in English to be as hilarious as he is in French.

A young French actor who has played a number of tragic roles in French film and TV but is hilarious in contrast to his characters when speaking English is Félix Lefebvre.
It’s enough to live in an English speaking country and be an extremely social person imo
Don't worry, he is probably funny in English for other reasons, (that he doesn't necessarily control and understand himself yet...) and he is obviously appreciated.
He has the same funny laugh. It's a good start.

No but how much of American audiences will know what that is?
@@lombax316 americans don't know anything

And they’ll never learn if it’s always dumbed down. Jimmy could have at least said César and then explained what it is. I feel like Colbert, John Oliver, even Seth Myers would definitely have given that.
Is Jimmy contractually obligated to not mention BAFTA, Goya, César? I guess that Oscar gig went well.
Because most Americans, me included, wouldn't know Cesar is the French equivalent of the Oscars...
OMFG he is so humble and genuine, he literally shines with his laugh and smile!
If the French are thinking of making their own version of James Bond, Omar Sy is that the guy for that.
Well, we have "OSS 117", which is kindof a parody of James Bond, somewhat similar to Johnny English. It's very famous in France.

Omar grew up in the ghetto close to Paris , He worked a lot and became the famous comic in France 🇫🇷 in the 2000's (Omar & Fred, etc ), acting in dozens of movies. He gained fame abroad with the 2011 comedy-drama film The Intouchables, which earned him the César Award for Best Actor. Sy became the first Black recipient of the award. He is an inspiration for all young people in France who wish to succeed.
Omar you are my guy !
The "french equivalent of an oscar" ?!?!?!? Could he be more US-centric if he tried ?
It's called a César and it is a prestigious award in its own right

Pls Trevor Noah should interview him next, Jimmy is not so good with international guests. Omar Sy has a beautiful story that needs to be known.
You may not have liked what you saw, but in the US, that's going to get him a lot of recognition and if he continues to grow then that beautiful story you're talking about would eventually come out because of the growing interest.
He should go to Conan I guess, Conan is Irish and better at ease with foreign people.
This man right here has got the best laugh ever, for exemple when he attends a broadcasted TV ceremony in France, you can hear his laugh burst in the entire room and you don't even need the camera to show his face to recognize it's him.
