  • Alexander comes from a long line of Skarsgårds. He tells Stephen about one ancestor who owned a bar, smoked a cigar, and played guitar.

    Stephen Colbert took over as host of The Late Show on Tuesday, Sept. 8, 2015. Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and best known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Prior to joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed “The Colbert Report,” which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one third of the time. Good luck, Bill!"

    • @AdAstra34
      @AdAstra34 Před 8 lety +325

      He was along with Chris Hemsworth in the final audition for playing Thor, but eventually Chris got cast (since Alex is older and the Marvel universe was supposed to be long-lasting...now ironically Chris looks as old as Alex)

    • @margaritam.9118

      He's the first name that came to my mind when they were casting Thor. I'm actually still bitter he didn't get the part haha... he'd be perfect even on a meta level. Well, at least his father's in the MCU...

      +akaElleLatham I didn't think so. I just wanted to say that I didn't mean for the comment to sound like a complaint. I get that there isn't anything wrong with pronouncing your name differently for a skit, it just sounds odd. :0)

    • @mawe86ify
      @mawe86ify Před 8 lety +2

      I mentioned that I didn't mean to be rude and apologized if it came across that way. It's nothing wrong with saying your name differently in a skit. If Stephen calls himself Stooven to make a pun, then that's great. It just sounds strange, especially when it's repeated lots of times. Sorry again if I came across like I was complaining.

    • @mawe86ify
      @mawe86ify Před 8 lety

      +akaElleLatham Sorry, I missed that she was answering you, not me. :0) I didn't think you were really rude. If she did it might just be because it can be hard to tell with just text and no tone of voice or expression...
