Jon Bernthal Gets Punished By Spicy Wings | Hot Ones

this moment uh just um you know it's everywhere it's in our politics it's in our entertainment it's in it's in how it's in our media where there's a kind of rigidity and and and and and and and and and um inflexible kind of uh uh just inability to move away from your opinion um that's confuses with a kind of patriotism and strength and masculinity to say it's my way or the highway where I think for me that's the least American thing in the world and I think, as far as being, you know a man, I think that you need to be able to talk to anyone, you need to have enough confidence in yourself, um. that you know that you can make a mistake that you can learn from everyone that you should reach out and engage in dialogue with people who think completely differently than you um the people that I really respect and admire in my life have that, I think, people that actually walk the walk. way that they don't just talk about it, they all live by that code that you're constantly trying to improve, you're constantly trying to grow, it's not about implementing my will on you and I think you already know With this type of masculinity, I feel like it's been bastardized in this way, which again is about grandiloquence, it's about looking tough and talking, but you know, having empathy for people, having compassion for people who help people, being someone you want to be. the kind of person who will be there for someone in need, that's what I think you know, being a father is about being a man and certainly that's how I'm trying to raise my children and um to have an open heart. uh, towards everyone, there's chocolate, no, yes, but holy, not the kind that I think you can be like hoping you don't get chocolate, pepper, holy dude, yeah, man, I'm going to eat all of this doing what I said, Holy moly, I get it.

In Ford vs Ferrari, director James Mangold moved away from the green screen and embraced classic Hollywood filmmaking techniques when you think about the creative ways he was able to capture the chaos of auto racing. Yeah, what kind of things stand out across the board. Look. a genius, you know, he's a national treasure, you know, and I think what this homage to classic cinema really was because of exactly what you said, I think it's more than just the lack of special effects and and what that means for the actors shout out real race cars, even if you never see the race cars, the sound, the energy, the palpability of that informs all the performances, they're all really there and you can feel them and I.

I've been so blessed, uh, to work, holy man, that's great, you know, I've been so blessed, I might have to shorten my answer, holy bro, and then Martin Scorsese is a director who embraces improvisation. I'm curious to know how you think, the wolf of Wall Street. could have benefited from that approach, I mean, it's the top of the mountain, you know, there's never anyone better, there never will be, uh, you know, that process I learned the most even with that kind of limited role, my whole acting style changed from that, um, there are not two. the takes were the same everyone on that set everyone who sets foot on that set you know they are literally the best in the world at what they do there is so much reverence there is so much loneliness and solidarity on those sets a lot of times people talk about it sells this to me pen scene and I use it as a very good example of the way Marty works when I read he was walking around the set that day, you know, his security was a New York City detective and he said he had had an interview from I work with the real Jordan Belfort and Leo they said they really only came on set that day we were filming that scene, he said what the interview was and he said he gave me a pen, he said to sell me that pen, so Leo just didn't like him.

He told no one he just threw away. that in that scene and then everything was kind of a reaction from that, it just made it electric and you never knew what was going to happen next, it changed the way I worked on everything, did they throw you a mother's day party? death during your time on the Walking Dead or is it a tradition that started after you left? The first time we went there, she said this was going to make you uncomfortably full and that's where we always had our death dinners. We start with the first one with Amy and that group, all those guys from the originals, um, them.

They are my family and I am very grateful to have been able to be on that program. It helped me in many ways. Well, speaking of eating, until you're into it. next is the bomb beyond madness, yeah I mean what is that beyond? And I say it like someone reads that and goes oh yeah, like uh yeah, you go crazy, so you gotta go further, you gotta go further, bro, oh dom, I love you. to see what I'm doing mother, what's going on if you're going to be a bear, be a grizzly bear, you have to be a grizzly bear, uh, I mean, there's not even two more hmm, I can't believe you can get better, yeah and it kind of just grows in this kind of growth oh yeah oh mother yeah so besides training abroad I know you're talking bro how are you doing?

You keep rolling, keep rolling, okay, okay, come on, I know you do too I played catcher on a professional baseball team, yeah, Russia, yeah, can you open the curtain? I hate him too quickly. What a visit to the mound with John Bernthal was like. What would you say to a pitcher who is having trouble detecting his fastball? You know, I love that position. You know that you are the general fuel, you know that there is a psychology that you constantly play with the batter and with the pitcher, I'm going to go to the milk, brother, yes, me too, me too, I already beat you there, that's beyond the madness, I became intense.

Sometimes, as a receiving brother, that's all I have to say about it. What is the most intense high school football game you remember playing during your undefeated season with Sid? Well, friendship, those guys are my best friends in the world. Dougie Thornell, Greg Zumas, we were undefeated. Man we grew up playing together you know wow bro I can't believe there's two more as an actor who frequents the petromali boxing gym what do you think you know buddy what do you think is the best boxing movie of all time , oh, furious? raging bull, you go in there with him and the character piece um, it's a hard sport to do well, not a lot of people like what we're talking about with tennis, what we were talking about with tennis, there's not that many people who They've actually gotten there, but they're incredibly meticulous and there are movies that I think a lot of people think are great that are full of boxing flaws.

It's difficult to me. It seems like there are a million boxing movies about white fighters. It's not a target. sport and that's always been kind of a source of contention in the boxing world um but yeah I think Raging Bull for me is the best I'm catching a little bit of a head okay yeah just catch a little bit of a buzz In my head, I think about that last bit, it's weird man, I'm so nervous about him being around, but I'm also curious how we could get stronger. Can I curse? Go ahead, let it fly, let it fly, brother.

I've never seen you fight like this, buddy, I like how you came up in your are like I come here with humility, I come here, yeah, and you know I've been around the block so many times, maybe sometimes I take this for granted, but I think the first one reminded me that we're playing at being dangerous, it's not, yeah, this isn't, this isn't for babies, okay, so this is going to make one like a circle, yeah, yeah. He hit a head on his lap, oh my god, okay, come on. Come on, come on, so this is hell, come on, he'll fight, man, look at this mother, look at him, look at him, look at him, I mean, look, I'm literally going to have nightmares about this guy here saying eat me, reaper. sauce, let's make it, buddy, let's make it, I'm just making one bite, okay, I'm fine, just make one bite, let's call it one, let's call it one, we should make two, yeah, okay, let's make two, do you like to swallow? fast? it was what I did traditionally because I had to choke up to answer the question, yes, yes, but after the first one, quick, I think it's a mistake, maybe I should slow down, he's a stupid man, I'm sorry I'm cursing so much . sloane is going to drown me, well come on, you are a movie buff who counts true romance, good friends, The Silence of the Lambs among your favorites, but you also speak highly of a little known film called DC Caps, oh lord yes, because?

Do you mean that movie as you call it the only h

ones

t DC movie ever made? DC never portrayed the real DC as if it had never been portrayed in movies. You know DC grew up there. It's largely studio hypocrisy. You know you have taste. the federal government there and everything is pristine and it's, you know, patrolled by the capitol police and the secret service and then historically you go a couple blocks in any direction and it's a very, very different city and there's so much vibrancy and culture and vitality for that city it has its own vernacular its own music i don't know if you've ever heard go go music yeah hell yeah but like it was so good where you grew up chicago um what's crazy about dc cab showed the real thing? dc i love that movie you know i mean i love that movie yeah well at least we got a shout out today for dc cab okay john

Come on, who would do that? Go there, come on, come on, come on, come on, let's make it all right. I love it. I love it. You can't talk about DC and then not do that. You, that's how genius you are, friend to DC, okay, John Bernthal, we have finally reached the conclusion of our journey of observation, yes, if we have learned anything along the way it is that your path through acting has also been a roller coaster from Russia to the United States until waking up at 5:00 a.m. and driving to the actors center for open auditions in a ruthless jeep for someone whose path to the big screen was not the easiest.

What do you think is the most important trait an aspiring actor should have to be able to polish and do what blazes a trail through the unknown is pretty simple man I think the mistake that so many people make and I think you can make this in professions of all areas, constantly worrying about connections, getting to the right room, you know, knowing the right thing. People, uh, uh, you put in all this time and effort as actors having the right pictures in your head, you know, reaching out to people that you know might be in the industry, it's not about getting into the right rooms, you just don't know.

It's about what you do when you arrive. There you have to love what you do and you have to work at it like crazy because you love it and so double that and give it everything you have man and and uh and never ever give up wise words to live by john

bernthal
