Who else is happy for him? Working on his farm, driving a comfortable car, and enjoying music? Keep it up dude, you didn't let Hollywood ruin your life.
Fighting around the world
He basically lives the life Maximus wanted, with the benefits of modern civilization of course.
His voice invokes the feeling of sitting around a bonfire in a winter night.
That's perfect, Luke. 👌
Yes!
till he started singing
I agree
Couldn't agree more.
Saw this guy fight once in ancient Rome. He asked me if I was entertained. What a good lad he was.
I saw him last december. he was in the top of a house holding a huge red bag trying to enter this narrow chimney
That was in the southern provinces!
So were you entertained?
@@hectorarredondo6929 Probably not...but I was
I saw him killing the emperor. He committed regicide. Gods what was his fault, he was just being merciful.
"what is russel crowe doing now" - Finally someone who understands that question and gives a proper answer
I think most other actors are on press tours and have been answering questions all day and want to get things over and done with. Russell is chilling and is doing it in his own time so he took his time with all the questions which is much appreciated.
@@vsquar3d Yeah you right. But still nice when you get a good answer.
Right? They all think they're so funny by saying "I'm breathing" or "I'm doing Wired autocomplete". Crowe does it too, but at least follows it up with a serious answer.
You're trying to tell me doing the wired autocomplete interview isn't the correct answer? 😆
There's one of this interviews where the actor, I don't remember who it was, says something like "Oh, I think they wanna know what project we're working now. Like if we're doing a movie or something" After that I didn't think of it as a stupid question.
But at the same time, when you put it side by side with questions like "Is someone left handed? Is someone related to that other person?" and so on, it does look like a odd question.
Russell Crowe looks like he would give you a piece of candy and then disappear into thin air.
he should play 'Steve Bannon' when time comes.
Like a wandering mage bearing sweets? Sounds like a good side quest.
a pair of eyeglasses and he can pull off a Gabe Newell look
Im dead 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This guy could softly read the ingredients on a jar of mayonnaise to me and I'd fall asleep after he says "egg."
LmFao.
Man...his voice is giving me confidence to do anything
Yes, its 80% of the reason I am still watching. I love it
CRINGE
@@masterwindu1234 Your Star Wars name? Agreed
“Can you sing?”
“MY DUTY’S TO THE LAW… no.”
What a great send-up of the criticism he faced for Les Mis. Hysterical.
Russell Crowe is much like Keanu Reeves - they both are introverts, enjoy solitude and are very down-to-earth. They both are very humble, shy even, but immensly courageous. A nice little conversation about life between these two, would be one of the most adorable and inspiring things to watch! I'm sure of it!
WE NEED WIRED AUTOCOMPLETE INTERVIEW WITH KEANU REEVES!
I don't remember ever hearing Keanu punched anyone so far.
@@robertfox05 but he has maturity to admit his mistakes, without that temper we wouldnt have one of the best southpark skits ever made lol
So true
"can I sing?"
*SINGS*
"no."
He's right tho 🙊
It’s a reference to his universally panned singing in the movie Les Miserables. Good to see that he’s such a good sport about the criticism.
It freaked the heck out of my cat when he belted out like that. I've never seen such a look of fear.
@@micapapa8647 honestly, i think he was one of the better singers in the movie and he's definitely my favorite javert
9:53, Ahahahahhahaahhhah😀😃☺....was not expecting him to be so loud about it.
Love his honesty and not pretending he is what he isn't.
me too... he is very modest man!
I used to find him pretty annoying during interviews, but this video is fantastic. I really like him here.
Not sure if he was honest about his height but then again I haven't met the man so I couldn't say for sure that he's lying.
Russell Crowe is like the cool grandpa with whom you can talk forever and never get tired of listening
I kind of love that he just admits he's not a nice guy.
But surely he is.
Nice guys sometimes don't realise they are nice. And he is nice.
@@MrMojoRisinn I believe he knows himself
I know he used to be a bit of a jerk with a temper - remember him throwing a tantrum and phone at a poor hotel guy. Nice to see he's calmed down & can self reflect
Highly intelligent, engagingly articulate, marvellously uncompromising. Watch him in heartbeat.
glad you noticed as i have the depth and eloquence of his articulation. very very intelligent
To the dislikers: " Are you not entertained!?!? "
Such a good comment
And for they are in Elysium
😂😂😂😂😂 good one!
🥃
🤣🤣🤣
I had such a crush on Crowe in Gladiator. That voice, those eyes, his command of a scene. A slow burn of a guy. He still has it, honestly, and it's been tempered by life. Still a crush. 💕
I can relate. the voice alone would be enough, but combined with that look... bonus: they say that Taurus fits perfectly to Leo.
@@MarinoTarot no
and he's aries
ediblewoman. Yes agree. I like the fact he comes across as a straight up kind of guy.
@@MarinoTarot I'm a Taurus through and through. We tend to but heads with Leos. Can't deal with their self absorption.
What about me ?
his voice is perfect for narration
Question: what is Russell Crowe?
Russell: *Existential crisis*
😂😂😂
Lots of us pause for thought at that question... Especially if we are introverted, which it seems he is
This man looks like an ancient Gladiator who gave democracy to Rome
"Maximus! Maximus! Maximus!"
Spaniard lol. Live! Live! Live!
@@yudithdm9302 hahaha! You made my day with that!
or John Goodman now
Oh how I love him
This is basically asmr
Until he loudly breaks into song
nic cage What is asmr?
@@pibly7784 it's usually a very soothing voice or sound or something done in a very relaxing way. All of which give you a tingling sensation, almost a bit hypnotic... maybe somebody can describe it better. Anyway, there are lots of asmr videos here on youtube... so enjoy 😉
His voice gives me ASMR, so yeah I'd agree.
He looks good. And obviously comfortable with what he looks like and what his age right now. I hope more people are like him.
Russell Crowe just seems like the guy you would sit down with at the local pub and have a good time. He seems to have mellowed with time as we all do.
Who's here after that 09:52 heartattack?
me lol
Hahahahhaha
i had a heart attack and now i can't hear
i am d e a d now
I’ve sort of erased the fact that I watched the 2012 Les Mis five times... then stuff like this just yeets me back to every time I watched it
My god I could listen to his voice all day.
Russell's dad nature is shining in this.
I just had to reassure me that Gladiator was 20 years ago... 20 f***ing years!
Anno Warrior Still the GOAT
I could watch Gladiator once a week for a year easily .
Yes, my friend, we are not getting any younger.
@@acul7919 we will get younger, just hang in there and pray science
need to get him together with Jeff bridges for a movie where they play brothers and mebbe throw in Kurt Russel
Yes! This idea
😂😂
UncleJackOnline LOL-- Interesting idea. Maybe a Big Lebowski sequel ?
Also Will Ferrell
@@ksr5985 Eww..no. Never liked his style of acting, nor his movies..well...maybe couple.
I know, matter of a opinion i suppose.
He has gotten a bit older and fluffy but he’s still so handsome! 🥰
He doesn't come across as fluffy but he has lovely eyes.
He had to gain weight to play Roger Ailes.
I would most definitely listen to an audiobook narrated by him
9:52 audio spike warning guys, if you're wearing headphones be aware
I read this just as he started to sing. RIP eardrums.
I hate you...ears bleed
Tooo late! lol!
I was so happy that I wasn't wearing headphones at the time (I usually do).
@@porto-gn8wf Don't sweat it... it's Russell!!Hope your practicing social distancing and wearing your mask then they probably won't know who you are!!
Wait, wait, wait...
Russell Crowe, the man who plays the farmer Maximus Decimus Meridius, is actually farming? Am I the only one who saw that?
Farming wheat
Dirt washes off your hands easier than blood
@@bradthompson5383 I very much am!! I haven't seen this video in so long, but I may as well watch it again now!!
So the obvious question remains:
When is somebody going to make a video of Russell Crowe and Morgan Freeman just...talking to each other for 6 hours?
Hahahahaha good one. You forgot to add Liam Neeson
And James earl Jones
And Mike Tyson.
The realest ASMR.
Henry Cavil
Russell Crowe is one of my all-time favorite actors. There is no movie that he is in the I do not like
One of the greatest actors for the past 25 years! And forever one of my alltime favourites too! Got to love Russell Crowe! Great guy!💙👍
As he aged he became somewhere right in between John Goodman and Jeff Bridges and I like it.
Yes. Totally see that.
John bridges
@@Starfield-Guy John bridges to Russell.
He's no Sam Elliot!
Dawg, have you seen Unhinged?
Let's be honest. We're all here just to see a real-life gladiator.
He does not entertain.
no. he is not gladitor for me, he is Russel Crow -excelent actor and man!
Could listen to this man talk for hours
His voice is everything😍
9:51 talent warning
Not Gerald Butler: *whispers throughout the video*
Me: *turns up volume to hear him*
Not Gerald Butler: *sings as loud as humanly possible*
Bro..9:52 nearly gave me a heart attack. Normal voice for the whole interview and then...."MY DUTY'S TOO THE LAW".
I want to give him a hug. He is the best
Thanks maybe someday. Thank you for following me and watching my movies and all your kind support and love. Much love. Hope you are doing great
Yeah same
@@magdalenahunter2082 What inspired you about me
@@russellcrowe2746 My mom because, she showed me Les Miserables and I got obsessed.
@@magdalenahunter2082 Okay. Tell me more about yourself
Comes across really well. Loved him in LA Confidential.
Yes!!! Bud White is my favorite role of his!
He's far more personable than I thought he would be.
Thank you very much For your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Telle what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?
I feel like Russell Crowe has completed his metamorphosis into Peter Jackson.
superb comment
a very handsome Peter Jackson
Hamza Vohra Was just about to say same thing.
He's embraced it too.
He seems like a really nice charming guy. I wouldn't complain if this video lasted twice or thrice as long.
Captions: "New Finland".
Me living in the Old Finland: what in tarnation?!
What a charismatic, funny, magnetic and captivating man! 😍😍😍 I love him SO MUCH! He’ll forever be one of my absolute favourite actors. ❤️ Russell is a GEM!
Thanks for your kind comments. You are so sweet. I am so glad you are my fan. Hope you like my movies.
"What we do in life echoes in eternity"
-Maximus Decimus Meridius
Russell Crowe should record motivational quotes, the wave of productivity that would follow would be immense.
It would be an entirely new era. The time....after Russell Crowed
I hope one day I can meet Russell Crowe in person, shakes his hand and says "Strength and Honor".
Strength and Honor
TRUE!
@@corbelius6 Soldier : General.
Crowe : Nod.
Soldier 2 : General.
Crowe : back pat.
Soldier 3 : General.
Crowe : nod.
Underrated scene.
Russell Crowe is slowly becoming John Goodman. I love them both, and I'm just happy that 2020 hasn't taken them.
Don't speak too soon.
@@throbbn don't you put that evil on us! Lol
& Steve Miller. Flesh like body
Why didn’t Russell Crowe make a sequel to Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World? Not that I am bitter or sad about that or anything.
Pirates of the Caribbean came out at the same time, causing it preform poorly at the box office. So they didn’t make enough money to consider doing a sequel. There are about 20 some books that the movie was based on though
Nature of the industry:
director didnt want to do a sequel, didnt gain enough money, too expensive, pirates was more popular, not mainstream enough
I hear you. Its my favourite movie. I would have loved a sequel.
I'm bitter lol
Last time I was this early, they were still peeling stickers off of cardboard to see the questions
Just finished Unhinged and holy cow, I am now officially scared of my fellow Aussie Mr Crowe. Had my anxiety levels peaking the whole way through, which rarely happens to me in movies. Great performance, I hope he gets more credit for his outstanding range as an actor.
What a great actor through out the years and as time passes by, to me, he is so handsome!
He’s just forever gorgeous.
Imagine if he ends this interview with "Are you not entertained"
Can we have an audiobook, read by Russell Crowe and Armie Hammer? Something that's long.
At least Harry Potter length.
Still want Armie or should we just stick with Russel ?😂
@@gabigrycan4187 I had to google it because I had no clue what was happening.
That's f***ing gross. But it also seems almost too bad to be true? Idk. 😣
I am huge fan of this guy, one of my favorite actors, every film he did he was brilliant.
Gosh but I just really like Russell Crowe.
Very enjoyable listening to Russell.he's a phenomenal Actor.with a dry wit.true to his Friends and Family.he is a hard worker in his Acting a perfectionist.but an element of fun
Thank you so much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what is your favorite movie of all of my movies you have seen so far?
"Is Russell Crowe a nice guy?"
Probably... yes!
My favorite actor 🥰 grew up with his posters on the wall (good old days) I think he still has it and OMG that voice, I could live with it and only it for the rest of my life 💖 luv you Russ
umrano late 90s early/mid 00s he was phenomenal!
I watched this a bit reluctantly because I'm not really a Russel Crowe fan or anything, but he gives a really entertaining interview, and was very interesting. This deserves more views.
Q: Can Russell Crowe sing? A: Les Miserables. Translation: No.
Gladiator was his best role, in my opinion. The acting gave me chills, so much emotion in all the different scenes that i couldn't help getting lost in it. I have had 10 DVD's and Blue Rays of that movie so far
He is literally the only actor I've ever seen who can ride a horse properly. I can't watch westerns or any other show with horses. They jerk their mouths, bounce all over their backs, jerk them to a stop. Russell rides well, though.
His voice is soo soothing!
Thanks for your compliment. You are so kind. Hope you like my movies.
Skating skills of a seven year-old line had me laughing. Thanks for that.
You are welcome honey hope you are doing great
Such a great actor, Gladiator will always be a classic and can’t believe it’s been 20 years since that was at the cinema. Would love to have a few beers with him and just tell stories and jokes.
His acting in A Beautiful Mind is still one of my favorites.
The best in-depth interview of this serious. And he actually answered “the what are you doing now?”question.
that buffalo bills reference was spot on
Male pattern baldness has left the chat.
Ya man!
Millions of dollars to partake in hair follicle transplants, stimulation, and plasma enrichment has entered the chat.
@@wheres_wolfie I wonder, why he haven't coloured his beard then.
@@wheres_wolfie of course you are.
Paul WT I’m not saying all people prone to MPB do. I am pointing out that he has access to any amount of procedures he would like. If you want to make conclusions based on anecdotal evidence, my dad purchases extremely high end kitchen equipment yet drives a Hyundai. One thing does not necessarily equate to the other. Getting weight off is hard. Maybe he likes the seasoned gray look.
Never thought I would be arguing about Russell Crowe’s hair in the internet tbh.
9:52 -- Jesus Christ, that scared the crap out of me.
Lol
I love that he's one of these classy personas that actually answers the questions instead of just making a joke of all of them (honestly, it's not cool and frankly why even agree to sit through this interview if you don't want to say anything about yourself?).
Thank you, Mr. Crowe, for your answers, humor and, of course, your roles in the films!
See he's always in character. Demn a really really good actor. Nice one wired
Such a great interview! Love his personality!
Listening to his voice brings back all the scenes his movies I have watched.. such a gentleman
Love his sense of humor.
I can't tell you how heartfelt and sincere I am when I say I'm glad to have had a positive acquaintance with all of you🌻
Such a wonderful feedback; he is so relaxed. Great voice & talent
Thank you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?
I like hearing people say nice things about Ryan Gosling. He seems like such a cool dude.
What a smooth and soothing voice.
"Can I sing": now you listen here, I thought you were the best singer in Les Mis the first time I saw it, and My FAVORITE part was the confrontation scene
Been waiting for this for a long time! My favorite!
I have a feeling Russel Crowe is a lot nicer than he or the press puts on. 😁 I hate that everyone is so much younger than me. I could be his much older big sister. 😂😭
This is the first time I've really seen him in an interview - he's hilarious and cheeky. Seems like a good dude to sit and have a cuppa with.
I can't tell you how heartfelt and sincere I am when I say I'm glad to have had a positive acquaintance with all of you🌻💯👌
such a lovely person, a genuine man, down to earth. A true gladiator!
Huge fan. Master and Commander..bloody brilliant movie. Gladiator. Epic. He directed (and starred in) his first movie called The Water Diviner(2014) It was absolutely brilliant. Great story and acting. Cried buckets. If you haven’t seen it just see it!
What is Russel Crowe doing now?
"I’m makin’ movies, makin’ songs and foightin’ ‘round the world"
Love Russell. He’s got a beautiful, relaxing voice
Love you too honey. Thanks for watching my movies and support. Hope you are doing great
Want to see you back in movies.
Your a good actor. Love your performances.
He seems like such a nice guy ❤️
Thank you honey for following me and watching my movies. Hope you are doing great today
"Oh, he is speaking so quietly and peacefully, let's put the volume a litthe higher"
*Then he sings*
X_X
kundogb my dog had a heart attack
His spirit seems calmer .. more at peace .. good for him
What a lovely guy, seems so lovable and warm in this interview
Is Russell Crow a nice guy?
" Probably not." 🤣🤣🤣
Hello my gorgeous day I want to use this opportunity to say thank you for your continuous love and support through the years I really appreciate.❣️❣️❣️
I was listening with a very low volume trying not to wake my mother and avoiding having to use earphones
Then 9:53 happened
That scared me lol
I'm thrilled! It's so kind of him to answer these questions. He´s such a nice man. I could listen to him for hours. He tells so exciting and he´s all personality is so kind. I´d love to hear the new songs he wrote and -Mr. Crowe, if you read this- : You have the nicest voice I ever heard. Not only that you "can" sing, you sing fantastic. I enjoyed Les Miserables particulary because of the songs sang by Mr. Crowe. I´m listening every day to his music on my MP3-Player.
Thank you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?
Love his soothing voice , he is regal sounding. He seems very grounded
