The 3 phases of discovering Eddie redmayne:
1. This guy seems like a great actor! Let’s check him out
2. He is so cute
3. Bless him he’s awkward

Eddie Redmayne needs more credit for how bloody good he is in the Fantastic Beasts movies.

[PropaChels_CFC]

Ali and Eddie are always such a fun pair because of the way that Ali conducts his interviews, being friendly and chummy whilst asking intersting questions about the actor's career and projects

[Femmeaesthetic]

I'm just glad we have an awkwardly adorable actor in our generation, god this man is underrated.

[Jadorelainie]

I love it when it's Eddie Redmayne season! This man is like sunshine embodied.

[haninhk]

No it wasn’t Ali who compared the wands. It was other interviewer. However, Daniel said that Eddie got his wand from IKEA 😹

[MsMeyara]

Eddie is such an amazing NEWT! I couldn't have wished it for a better Newt than him!

[addictedtoJB]

Lol, "Dan would've done it." After many years of being told to do something on cue, I still kind of doubt he could 😅

[ganderjlo]

This was a delightful interview. Thank you both.

[bobbyterrence]

They need to have Ali in the next Fantastic Beasts film. Somewhere, somehow.

[peightonstorm]

the Harry Potter movies and these Fantastic Beasts movies the sets these people create are just phenomenal Nobody Does it Better and the music and the actors everything is always perfection that's what we love about all of these movies excellence

[nissiebee]

I was waiting when id see a interview with Ali again. Always a pleasure to see his interviews

[Denis-]

It's like they are old mates just chatting and playing off with each other. What an interview?

[Joy-ivko]

not having seen the harry potter reunion bc of not having hbo max is the most relatable thing ever

[christinadwikusumaningtyas]

Eddie is not aging at all 😍😍😍😍 i adore his charm

[TheJudiBambiPurrsParadox]

I adore Eddie Redmayne! He was sensational in The Danish Girl! I happen to find awkwardness combined with humor as very endearing and down to earth. I wonder if Jimmy K was told you lost the underpants, would he get them remade/replaced? If I could tell Jimmy, I would..but I'm just a fan so how would I get that to him, eh? lol



I also love Freddie Highmore...and Jude Law...come on...adorable guys with great humor and intelligence.

[eggy]

Don't you just want to hug Eddie, but I think his wife might have a few words to say.

[mamat]

Eddie Redmayne and Ali Plumb together...guaranteed joy!

[rjtavares]

How does a lead actor for one of Warner Bros. most valuable IPs not get a free subscription to HBO Max?

[hextral]

I adore that people have begun to give him crochet things. Seems like we've all learned it as a hobby during the pandemic and have applied it to our fandoms now. Bless, I need to make a niffler now.
