I cannot imagine a 14 year old Danny Devito.
It feels like he's been 40 his entire life until one day he turned 70.

[starheartskull]

Such a small detail but I love that in the beginning he had the manners to just hold on to the papers he tore off instead of throwing them around until they told him he could throw them away 😂

[CorporalFriendlyShark]

There is now literally no excuse for Disney not to have him back as Phil in the live action Hercules - he’s basically issued a come and get me call here 🤣

[zachhaywood]

During the making of Matilda, Mara Wilson's mother was dying of cancer, and Danny let her see the final cut before anyone else before she passed away.
A genuinely kind hearted and good soul.

[Nightblade]

I imagine Danny DeVito in real life to be one of the most genuine and warm-hearted people to be around. Everything he does acting wise has always been a real treat during my childhood.

[FloatingSunfish]

I wanna thank Danny for making Matilda. It was such a great movie to watch as a kid!
Not to mention what a terrific actor he still is to this day!
No one can replace him!

[lecantalouprouge]

I want to protect Danny DeVito at all cost! This man is a national treasure.

[kenbonez]

As a kid, I was terrified of Danny because he was so good as The Penguin 🐧. Now that I'm older I love the man and realize what a legendary actor he is 👏. Seems like a great guy too!

[MrJDT]

I can verify that in real life he is the sweetest guy, he acts just like he is in this video. Ran into him with a friend when he was doing a show in NY and he stopped to chat even though he was with his wife. Super kind and down to earth guy, love him to death.

[sassyviking]

If he ever does get grandkids Danny is definitely going to be the fun grandpa they always want to visit. He seems like such a genuine and down to earth guy for such a famous actor.

[DerpyPossum]

*"Y'know how many actors it takes to screw in a lightbulb? One. He holds onto the lightbulb, and the world revolves around him."*
- Danny DeVito, national treasure.

[chrisbriscoe]

Danny DeVito is like America’s uncle. I feel like he could hang out with anyone and genuinely have a good time. He just seems like someone who enjoys life.

[asukalangleysoryu]

Danny, you may not be a grandpa yet, but this entire interview radiated supportive/funny grandpa vibes.

[newspaperlightbulb]

I love how at 1:06 the producer tells him he doesn’t have to hold onto the paper, then at 1:14 he does it again and then mid sentence at 1:23 he remembers he can throw them away and does it very casually

[loot]

I always think if Danny DeVito is in a movie, then it's really a movie.

[DavidMcCoul]

Wasn’t expecting him to give such thoughtful, complete responses to these questions. Better and more genuine than most other celebrities do on this segment!

[frezywizard]

Danny DeVito is so pure that it seems like he put hand sanitizer all over his body

[PTunnelly]

Danny DeVito is one of those stars who have no idea how legendary he is.

[crit_bot]

Him giving people his blessing to buy body pillows 😂☠. He really is a national treasure.

[pamew]

1:04 it says a lot about this man that he carefully keeps hold of even extremely minor litter. What a gem.
