Brendan Gleeson & Colin Farrell Have a Soft Spot for LA

James asks "The Banshees of Inisherin" co-stars Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson about their histories with Los Angeles. Brendan recalls the first time he visited and what about the city speaks to him. Colin shares why he would have friends and family out to visit him as often as he could when he first moved away from Ireland. And the two give Reggie Watts some secret spots to check out in their homeland.

"In Bruges" and "Banshees of Inisherin" are some of the best movies out there.
Martin Mcdonagh, Colin Farrel and Brendan Gleeson are a match made in heaven.

They are like brothers! Banshees of Innershin is so good and really plays off their relationship. Best movie of 2022

[savingplayer]

Wow he had a for real question for them! That's how you know he really enjoys Ireland 🇮🇪

[tiebaojin]

West coast of Ireland is totally fantastic - beautiful countryside, wonderful friendly people, and magnificent views of the Atlantic. And the Cliffs of Moher - everyone should take that hike along them, even if they are terrified of heights!

Most people might first remember Brendan in Braveheart but I first remember him playing Michael Collins in The Treaty and he was f**king epic!!!! One of my fav Irish men💚☘️

[marygaia]

Such gentlemen. I love Colin's smile. Just so open and easy. And Brendan is so kind and such a talented musician as well as an actor. Both are truly special men.

[azenshepard]

I love how the irish accent comes more and more through <3

[patwo]

[jjmah]

James Corden does a LOT of talking when he interviews other people

[carolineoram]

Colin Ferrell looks younger- he has good genes he's a great actor

[TeddyOG]

I like Brandon Gleason's answer about favorite places- I got a lot of em but I aint saying em- lol. Not a quote but pretty much what he's getting at. I respect it, some of my favorite places have become so tourist filled you have to get reservations or a shuttle just to access it these days

[alannahoconnor]

This makes me happy that my home is one of colins favourite places on Ireland. Beara for the win.

[JonnyDIY]

Finally asked a great question Regg! 💕👍

[siobanethier]

I’ve heard of Castletownbare and I think I’ve been there by chance but I’m not sure. I have been to Ireland more times than I know.

Excelente ator Colin Farrell, desejo todo sucesso do mundo ele merece, parabéns pela grande interpretação

[ElissaNWOPrincess]

You should be making me breakfast this morning Colin!

[LGAussie]

Had a summer fling with Colin in Miami 21 years ago. It was a great time, just like he says about the LA debauchery. We weren’t mad wild, but it was quite memorable. Colin likes to embellish a lot. The Irish have a knack for that. In fact, all my Irish friends have that tendency and do as well. They love to tell a story more exciting. It’s fun to listen to him. 🤣🤣🫶

[ElissaNWOPrincess]

My back isn’t real sad make it crystalline

[ericminch]

Wow, he grew all of his fingers back!
