"I don't believe in success, I think you should just try and exist"
That's my life 😂😂😂

[heresfrankbetches]

He smiles all the time
I like him very much for that

[johannabelle]

I just finished The Terror, and...listen. Hickey is an awful person, but he's also cute as hell.

[DanielVerberne]

Fantastic, complex performance in The Terror by Adam as Mr Hickey!

[comradedyatlov]

Ah, Adam did an amazing job playing Vasily.

[MyHeartsBeat]

Knowing him for only his "asshole"-roles like in banished or the terror, he seems like such a nice person. I especially liked that he wanted to be an Astronaut.

"i dont believe in success, just try and exist". Golden

"If you could steal someone else's career and why, who would it be?"
That's an easy one.






Cornelius Hickey.

Not gonna lie, I called Vasily “Vasily Nagaitis” on accident while talking to a friend about Chernobyl. Shit

[cesardachimp]

Who else only knows him from Chernobyl? I'm one of those people.

Absolutely incredible actor. Adam, if by any chance you're reading this comment, I take my hat off to you. What a performance in The Terror. A masterpiece of acting. Wish you all the success in the future!

[allyouneedisloveandweed]

Your acting in The Terror was awesome. You've got a fan here in Japan!

[fla]

Just finished The Terror and his performance was brilliant!! He made me both like and despise Mr Hickey. He was also very good in Chernobyl. Can't wait to see more of his work!

[mkls]

i love him I love him oh my god I love

[Janaparnikova]

he's not classically handsome at all but holy shit, he's hot as fire

[tonybp]

I really hated Mr. Hickey, goes to show he's a good actor.

[bisexualantigone]

First time I've ever heard of that last name before! Cool!

[Adam_Nagaitis]

[paperchain]

He makes my flesh crawl so he must be a good actor.

[castielwinchester]
