- Bill Nighy has become one of those actors who lights up the screen every time you see him, but still is not a household name in the U.S., in spite of being in such smash hits as Pirates of the Caribbean. He has a role in Pride, the Matthew Warchus feature about how a group of young gay activists helped change the world by fighting to support a union that wasn't quite ready to accept them. The great and modest Nighy talked to David Poland at TIFF.
Shot in Toronto, September 2014

He is so classy and humble. The thing I love most, which I think speaks volumes about him, is how highly he speaks of those he's worked with.
He makes me feel proud to be English! What a really lovely man he is. God bless you Bill Nighy.
Don’t you just love Bill Nighy? My father was a miner, died at 63 from a year pit related illness. I marched with them in the 80s when my Da was fighting for the right to go down a black hole. Had a great grandfather that died in a pit collapse in Fallin Pit. I seen my fathers face bust and bruised from police and horses at Orgreave. Two communities coming together in solidarity and the miners being instrumental in the LGBT being able to get married these days. Two of the best people in my life are my beautiful Da and my beautiful Gay son. Could I be any prouder? ❤️
This is one of Bill Nighy's best interviews. I couldn't help chuckling from time to time :) Thanks a lot!
Am I the only one that googled young bill nighy? I prefer this version. Some people look better as they get older
So true. Couldn't agree more.
A heartfelt and amazingly honest interview. Enjoyed it very much.
One of the best interviews I have ever watched. Both Interviewer and subject Top stars
Top bloke, top film.
Without doubt the most unpretentious actor I have ever seen interview which ALL other actors should take note. Recently watch the triple of Page Eight where he plays the spy Johnny Worricker and he was outstanding, he can say so much with just a small change in his body and no matter the words he speaks he gives them such meaning and worth. He now has taken the mantle over from Laurence Olivia saying to 'method actor' Dustin Hoffman in Marathon Man who spent hours running to get into character "Try acting, dear boy". Bill does a similar story about a young actor telling him he had lost his 'feelings' for the role due to his drama teacher telling him, he could not see his feelings. Bill tells him, his teacher needs an excuse to make out they are teaching, and he tells the young actor, "Learn and trust the lines, every thing you need is the lines, it is called acting" He also unlike so many 'lovies' like the worse Christopher Bale believes in being polite, respectful and kind to every one be they actors or fans. Hope he is around for a long time and become a 'statesman' of what acting and what an actor should be.
What a lovely human being bill is 😊
What's not to love about Bill. What a belter.
Thanks. He's great and very interesting to ;listen to.
I love the actors he mentioned - they too are the real deal. Being authentic today is so rare.
Best interview of anyone in a long long time. Probably because he is the interview-ee. Intelligent, insightful, charming and very witty. Loved it. Thank you Bill Nighy for who you are...
CLASSY, CHARISMATIC, CUTE .. Bloody NIGH perfect..❤️
Totally get the eye thing, finally got contact lenses and was truly shocked I looked so much older than I appeared without them, wake up call
love that still crazy got mentioned. i would easily put that film in my top 5, watch it a lot. in fact, i might watch it now!!
Very engaging interview, thanks.
I hope Bill returns to Broadway sometime in the future.
pride was an incredible movie
@Suramya Singh yes it was and what made it that good was the fact that it was a true story. Gives you faith in human nature. Take care✊🏼
wow - what he says about acting really applies to everything. He cuts through all the bullshit - love this guy!
I love this. Thank you so much.
My first memory of Bill Nighy is when he was cast as Sam Gamgee in the BBC adaptation of The Lord of the Rings - 1981
I've got a good idea for children in need. Peter Sellars took the Beatles song "A hard days night" and recited the words over some music like it was Shakespeare. You could take the words from the Jefferson Airplane song "The Ballad of the Chrome nun." and do the same thing it would go viral.
A wonderful, specail man.....Would love to have him as a friend.
Impeccable
Jag älskar denna snygga man.......
Great interview.
Bill Nighy is the opposite of 'laconic'.
Heaven help me because he won’t read this thankgoodness but he is adorable and I am 80. But I love his movies. ❤
I also love his movies, he is just so talented and incredibly. Especially love him as Viktor from Underworld...just love this vampire❤❤
he feels sort of schizophrenic at times ahahah, but he's such an amazing person. funny, witted, talented, interesting, you name it and he's got it
pen squiggling in the background. lovely conversation though.
He and David Tennant must share ties.
ShelbyBaby27, all I can say is Fuck Yeah....
🥰 •{e.g.}> 🇬🇧📻#️⃣"CHARLES PARiS"‼️The.BEST❕️
Espresso not Expresso bill..Jesus.
Laconic? Maybe. Louche? That's kind of rude. Who called him louche?
A loveable guy but he doesn't really act. He just delivers lines as himself a charming Englishman with his natural mannerisms.
Watch the making of from Pirates of the caribbean and him acting as Davy Jones in his mocap suit, he made up all of the characters little quirks and mannerisms himself, if thats not acting then I dont know what is.
Also as he played Viktor...it can't be possible that he delivered Viktor's lines as himself because Viktor is often cruel, impulsive and sometimes even aggressive. All characteristics that Bill doesn't have
