Timothée Chalamet, Joel Edgerton, and the Cast of 'The King' Talk Those Epic Battle Scenes

- It's not an easy task to take a well-known and frequently mythologized chapter of history and offer a new spin on it, particularly when that history has been mythologized by none other than Shakespeare himself. But writer-director David Michôd and co-writer Joel Edgerton have stepped up to the task with 'The King,' a retelling of King Henry V's ascent to the English throne, with the help of a brilliant cast that includes Timothée Chalamet, Robert Pattinson, Ben Mendelsohn, Lily-Rose Depp, and Edgerton himself. Ahead of the film's theatrical release in October (it will be available to stream on Netflix on November 1), Michôd, Edgerton, Chalamet, and Depp sat down with RT editor Jacqueline Coley to talk about their new film, explaining how fight sequences tend to bring out an actor's inner child and what it takes to reinterpret history -- and Shakespeare. Plus, they give us a few Rotten movies they love, and Edgerton describes what it's like to get bad reviews as a filmmaker.

@@PileceKrilce LMAFO FACTS B YOU FRKM DA CITY WE GONNA STEADY LET THE WHOLE WORLD KNOW HAHAHAHAB
She’s such a good interviewer! So knowledgeable, genuinely interested and fun! Well done
My one complaint...too short. I wish it had been spread out over two or three series. Or at least fill in the final history with words what happened in the wake of King Henry V short life. The acting was fantastic. Too bad no one mentioned Robert Pattinson. He really stepped into his role as a Frenchman. Loved his chemistry with Timothee, but then again Timothee brings out the best with whomever he is acting. Edgerton is such a talented writer. Very surprised to see that one of the producers was Brad Pitt.
Karen Lm loved 3 of them.It was pleasure to look at them on screen..nailing their roles perfectly.
Karen Lm yeah but it’s rare you get actors of this caliber on a tv show
I agree, it was too short. By the way, Robert Pattinson was mentioned starting at 11:50 . David mentioned him. I thought Robert Pattinson did a great job. I wanted to see more of him.
A 4-6 episode miniseries like Chernobyl would hit a sweet spot for Henry V's saga in my opinion.
Yeah plan b his production company produced it. I wouldn’t have attached him to this type of film either
Watched the film and it was AMAZING!I feel like the score should be higher than the 77% it was given.
Tahiri Perera for real it was an amazing movie
It actually has about 72%😕
A film about a world dominated by men killing each other for power and glory. I can see why some reviewers didn't appreciate it.
I'll slap ya mum with an Argos catalogue Oh my god grow up. It’s based on a battle involving real people and they were men. Obviously it’s going to be male dominated. And if you don’t like watching war movies then you shouldn’t watch this one. But for those who do, I’d say it’s a very good movie.
rotten tomatoes and all that jazz of course they will rate less
I like the interviewer ..she's cute,lovely and good listener
But she has no idea what shes on about. Like wtf does this have to do with game of thrones?
And asks intelligent questions not only standard bullshit.
@@declansmyth1973 had just the same question in mind...
@@annakalakatroni4708 She was saying GoT was also based on the 100 years war. Which it is. Not that the King was based on GoT.
The part French actor is playing an Englishman and the British actor is playing a Frenchman...
Up until the End of the 100 years war the English Kings and Nobility were all Norman’s. They were French speaking and many Kings required translators to understand the languages spoken by their subjects.
@soflo23 More like just raised, cause you know he was actually born half American half French
He is a French citizen with a French passport though!
@soflo23 But he didn't marry a French person, he was born a French citizen
@soflo23 his father is french, so he can have the french citizenship since birth
At the end of this film I concluded we've been spoiled by the countless series that gave us lenghty character developments and wide plots. This film reminded me that a complete story Can be told in the length of a film. What an incredible achievement this was. The casting couldn't be better, the music, the cinematography....fieuw
Arthur Saey Exactly, finally a film that felt satisfying to watch, even though I could watch Timothee as King Henry V forever and ever and ever.🙌🏽❤️👏🏽🤧
I'm a little shocked by some of the RottenTomatoes reviews.
"The King" was an amazing film. As a historian, I love how the film captures the politics and the culture of it's time. It was a really entertaining film all around.
Rotten tomatoes is basically shit at this point... They gave 70%+ to batwoman, which is more than joker
I take no stock in reviewers. They are all driven by their own pretentiousness, insecurity and image. Especially rotten tomatoes. Don't forget they gave kingdom of heaven a 40% yet gave ghostbusters (they changed the score now) a 90%.
David Of Orange I thought it was a good film but it didn’t amaze me. Also I don’t know how to rate it because I don’t know if it’s accurate
@@roycastanon5754 The characters are based more on Shakespeare play, while the events come from the Hundred Years War.
Glad to hear a historian say this. I enjoyed every aspect of the film. Very good
First time saw Lily-Rose on screen, I was surprised how well she played. I guess it’s the gene thing.
her part was such a turning point at the end of the movie and I think she was really really good I was surprised how much I loved her in this movie
Choose_love_ the best part of the movie🤷🏻♀️
It was the worst part of the movie! unrealistic really and rushed, women was told to please there potential partner she seemed cold and unwilling he was the fucking king of England ffs 🤣🤣 .. this film ain't 2019 people, a "strong woman" back then was not a common thing just like now.
beetle juice not her mother , she’s Johnny’s Depp daughter
@@WestNorf go read about their story before commenting
Some great acting in this movie, best new movie I’ve seen in a while.
(Joker) ... just leaving this here.
@@hansenbee123 Haven't seen that yet. Looking forward to it. This was a super film though.
@@hansenbee123 have u watch the king tho...
@@g0o0ey Yes... 3 times xD
She owned it. She educated her prospect. The chemistry between her and the king was inspiring.
Timothée Chalamet accent was really accurate, I would think that's his accent, he has that british look
Yeah, I was confused in the first part of the interview until I googled him and realized he's American.
@@Luvzilla4rilla You're right he's American. His looks struck me in the movie - not only a good-looking kid - but wasn't sure where he was from. Anyway, I looked him up on Wiki and he has an interesting maternal and paternal background.
Already watched 3 times, Chalamet so damn good actor. CMBYN, Beautiful boy, the King characters are so different but i believe each of them like they real people, he is so organic. @That haircut with his cheek bones - iconic
I watched the movie. And believe me if any movie is worth your money and time, it’s this one.
it’s so great and enlightening about that period time. The history and moral lesson inside the movie was so worth.
@16:00 Lily-Rose Depp absolutely nailed that scene! She stole that scene. I've played that scene a bunch of times. Loved it.👏👏
roxxylala26 I liked that a lot too. «a ball...”
@@vivegan1086 Exactly!.😆 Her whole monologue & her mouth movement, although slight, was very significant for me. Lol
AGREED... I was just drawn her scenes.!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I wasnt expecting her monologue, shes absolutely brilliant at leading the audience word by word to the conclusion that William was indeed a traitor. My favorite scene by far
Agreed but she overuses the word “like”.
I love the interviewerrrrr so muchhh she asked very very good questions to Lily .. this my best Lily interview everrr
Film was amazing, the speech he gave before the battle might be the greatest movie performance of all time
Watched the movie because of Robert Pattinson and fell in love with Timothee and his amazing acting. Really enjoyed it and have been binge watching his other movies. I’m truly amazed by how good he is. The scene with Lily was my favorite and she totally owned it.
Just watched this last night and I can’t get over it! Can’t wait to rewatch it over and over again! ❤️
Same
Timothe'e Chalamet was so fantastic! I didn't want it to end.
The whole movie was full of incredible speeches that were delicious but Catherine’s at the end was my favorite. And Hal’s reaction to it was very buyable and still heart warming.
The King - add this to Timothee’s great works - I love the movie
How the hell did they know who was who in the movie battle knight scene? They all looked the same.
Josh Calhov same. I wouldn’t have known who was the enemy
So, the first group of the English “army” had armor and helmets, the French as well. But because the English knew that by the time rest of them are supposed to run from the forest and join the battle, majority of the English army will be dead, they joined without helmets and armor, that’s how they distinguished themselves ( the English ) and the French.
Emma it all looked grey to me, the whole frikkin film sucked
@@Emma-qk2ko yeah I got that Im saying when they got caught up in the battle both armored sides how did they know who was who?
Juliette that is your opinion, i just simply said what i think and what made sense to me in that scene.
I loved Lily Rose's interview
I just think I'd like to see a Romeo and Juliet with Timothée and Lily, believe they could make an awesome one.
I mean they are french, they are in love, they are beautiful and talented, and... what else do we need? 😂❤😍
they never announced if they were dating, don't make assumptions
Kaylee Priest yes they did and then they announced their breakup lmao
@@natalierose7084 I read the top comment from Tabi Valéria, and was like "oh yeah they broke up" sadly they broke up. They looked quite happy together, but you never know what happened behind closed doors.
I think Romeo and Juliet adaptations are just out played by now, I love Timothée in everything and I hope to see Lily in more films, but not another Romeo and Juliet.
Nah I’m shipping him and saoirse 😂
I don't think I've ever been so excited to see a movie, definitely looking forward to it when it comes out on Netflix tomorrow. This interview was great and the interviewer did a really good job of honing on questions that were relevant and pertinent. Enjoyed watching all of this!
I wish The King was a mini-series. I really enjoyed it. Cinematography was excellent as was acting, costumes etc. Just overall excellent. Yes, I didn't want it to end either.
i watched it TWICE yesterday. i ABSOLUTELY loved it! it was SO FUCKING GOOD. holy shit!!! i cant get over it
0:58 "cos nobody should die on a movie set" I got chills after recent news :/
Same...made me think of that poor woman 😢
I can see why Lily and Timothée are so good together: they're both smart, articulate, talented and also a little awkward and goofy. They compliment each other well.
the interviewer is freaking lovely. I want to listen to her all day long
loved the interview with lily so much. they had such an interesting talk
What a movie! I haven’t been this emotional from a movie in a long time. Timothee’s performance is everything!
Great interviewer! Very engaging and interesting questions. So glad she did mad research. Very enjoyable to watch. Awesome interviews.
Just watched it for the first time. Fantastic movie. Acting superb. Makes you ill at those surrounding kings and rulers, war mongers who dont value life. Loved this movie.
Brilliant film. Absolutely riveting battle scene. I loved it. I even cried in parts, which I haven't done watching a film in years.
she’s such a good interviewer
I can't get over how cool is Edgerton
An absolutely facinating film. I loved every minute. The film has a slow and driving pace which allows for a relaxing movie-watching experience; giving you time to soak up all the beautiful details while being taken on a gripping adventure.
Although not being very familiar with the Henriad plays of Shakespeare, this film has ingnited my interest in the period and the literature. 5 stars from me - and a place in my personal favorites list.
this has been my sixth favourite film since it came out, now that's saying something.
this film deserves SO much more attention and praise
i just watched the film this year, but it has quickly become my absolute favourite time-period film. everything about it was magical
Timothée Chalamet is awesome 👏🏻
Absolutely loved this! Chalamet, Pattinson & Edgerton! Outstanding performances... Battle scenes were very well shot and unique. 9/10 from me. Thriller, Drama and Action combine in this period masterpiece.
What a great interviewer! Amazing job, Jacqueline! Funny, interesting and captivating!
WHAT A FANTASTIC INTERVIEWER
Amazzzzing movie! Great pacing, writing, acting... feel like I didn’t blink for 2 hours.
The movie is definitely one I’d watch over and over again. Very rare for me haha
I really enjoyed this film, and shall revisit it throughout my lifetime. Every line of dialogue was dripping in meaning and drama.
The movie has amazing cinematography and color grading (especially in HDR).
You know what, I watched this the other night and then the next day me and my dad were eating our dinner and watching the chase and a question came up about the battle and I’m proud to say that I knew the answer before any of the options came up
Edgerton’s a good writer, he’s also very good in the film.
An absolutely excellent film, everything top class. The acting was stunningly good.
one of the best movies i watched this year for sure
That was better than any film released on the big screen all year.
I LOVED this movie!! I would probably watch it a second time. Acting was phenomenal
Definitely a great movie...loved the dialogue and interaction between the actors! Really enjoyed Joel edgerton as Falstaff! Pattinson also did a great job as the Dauphin! Add this movie to your Netflix queue!
Can't believe she's Johnny Depps daughter she looks like a young kiera Knightley
She really looks like her mother actually.
Very underrated film
So glad TC was chosen to play Paul Atreides in the new Dune movie. Perfect.
What a beautiful movie. Absolutely loved it. Great Cast too.
jesus christ! this mans jawline!!!!
Honestly should have been a series! Loved the movie though.
We need to turn this into a series ❤️
Such a beautiful fascinating movie! The cast and the story are so watchable!
As a correction, A Song of Ice and Fire (and Game of Thrones) are inspired by the War of Roses. That war happened after the Hundred Years War, which is what this film is based on.
Lol the “no one should die on a movie set” hits different now
English history is THE best! It’s so rich and enthralling!
This was a great movie and wish it was a small series.
This film was amazing, I really liked (I know it's not popular) him in bright as the orc.
2021: im still wating for dune
this was an AMAZING film. Oscars. i am very, very hard to please.
I was amazed and mightily impressed by this movie. Well researched , great measured script and well acted throughout. Deserves higher than its mark. Would encourage anyone to watch this.
You mean the Shakespeeean research?
The casting is amazing!
The movie is powerful and absolutely brilliant. After the Joker, this is best of the year, imo. Too bad this didn't get on the Big Screen. It should have been.
well one thing i can say about this movie is that the score is outstanding
I'm in love with Timmy. Soooooo great. Sooooo smart. Sooooo AMAZING. Who were those other annoying people around him?
"Yeah nah" classic Aussie start to a point or compliment! p.s Joel grew up near my high school in Sydney
Hiromi97 Also very 🇿🇦 South African.
I've felt such a deep history concept tho, coz the whole meaning was on the whole other lever, not "French nor British " just "People who fight and die without a real reason envoled "
Dasha Gery economy change politics meaning and kill people
Lily is so sooo beautiful 🥺🥺🥺
I love you from this movie along it took me 5 times to understand. Im from Louisiana
My wife and I both studied medieval history. The film is very accurate, historically. The battles and all of the sets are brilliant. The duel betwen Hotspur and Henry is excellent from a Western medieval martial arts perspective. It's close enough to the historical record that we didn't get excited about the plot being inaccurate.
Hey that's really good to hear. I have heard some criticisms from French historians but took them with a pinch of salt 😂
@@beccymay701 Perhaps the Dauphin wasn't as stupid, and his sister not quite as smart, but one thing is for sure: the king was insane, but as spoken in the film, beloved because he loved his people and would do anything for them. It's hard to ask more from a king.
@@gerryleb8575 thank you for replying. I know your comment was from a few years ago so it's very gracious of you to do so X
God, it's really cold in that studio.
Seems Its cold everywhere where she appears
:)
I thought he was straight up going to have a cardiac arrest in that scene.
I loved the movie the actors were perfect in The King. I was introduced new actors too. 👍🏼👍🏼🥂
ASoIaF has almost nothing to do with the Hundred Years War. The conflict which GRRM drew inspiration from was the War of the Roses.
Geniuses seem to think that history imitates GoT, not the other way around.
@@Merlinthehappypig No idea why anyone would want to imitate GoT after the dumpster-fire that was S8 anyways.
Before season 8 there was a wealth of extraordinary work that we cannot erase; this film, The King, has the battle scene inspired by the visuality of The Battle of the Bastards.
@@smarandamaxim9290 Everything after Season 4 was downhill.
This young actor exudes "epic" talent.
Always thought Joel would be a good Snake Plisken in a would be Escape From NY remake
Exceptional great work....
Will there be a part 2 ? That would be grand !
I really enjoyed this movie, it deserves a higher RT score imo.
The Game of Thrones books are loosely based on The Wars of the Roses, not The Hundred Years War.
that's what I thought too. I'm struggling to find the connection between GOT and The King, but would love to hear otherwise.
Some of the characters in GoT are based on Real life people from this time.
Some say Rheagar was based on Henry V
The first thing I noticed him in was warrior I think, I was sure he was from jersey or whatever. Him and Tom hardy are my favorites
Moose Knuckles, girl? lmao ooooh you in trouble.
It was such a great movie
I honestly don't trust rotten tomatoes anymore. This movie is perfect! Great casting and great acting 🔥
Best movie I ever watched!
I'd love to know why he had the Dauphin of France at the battle when he wasn't actually there, not in a bad way just interested.
Great movie.
Didn't know rotten tomatoes had a yt channel. Dope
