1
It's my lips.
2
Hey what's going on everybody?
3
For First We Feast, I'm Sean Evans and you're watching Hot Ones.
4
It's the show with hot questions and even hotter wings.
5
And today we're joined by Callum Turner.
6
He's an actor out of West London who's gone from indies like Green Room and Tramps to the mega franchise Fantastic Beasts, George Clooney's The Boys in the Boat, and Spielberg produced Masters of the Air.
7
This summer though, you can catch him in the Will Gluck-directed romantic comedy One Night Only, which is set to release in theaters on August 7th.
8
Callum Turner, welcome to the show.
9
Thank you for having me, Sean.
10
What's going through your head as you stare down these wings in front of you?
11
Do you feel prepared for the moment?
12
I was a lot more confident about five minutes ago.
13
Yeah, no, I feel good.
14
I feel good.
15
See if I can do my family proud. And it's
16
already got the sauces on there, right?
17
Thank you for that.
18
Oh, it's nice.
19
a very gentle star
20
so the premise of this film it's audacious you know set
21
in a fictionalized new york where premarital sex is legal
22
but for only one night a year molly ringwald plays your mother in this film
23
and she's the face of 1980s romantic comedies what
24
if anything do you see as the through line between those john hughes movies in the 80s
25
and what they did and what you're hoping to do with this film it's funny you say
26
that because will's first movie easy a is it pays great homage to Breakfast Club.
27
And I think that those movies provided just a space for the angst to be let out of the time.
28
I think what Will does so brilliantly is slightly different.
29
He allows you to lean into that old school romantic comedy feeling and just be embraced by the film.
30
It's a It's a slightly different thing, but there is a connection.
31
There is a through line.
32
Quite nice.
33
I don't want to get too cocky.
34
But take your wins where you get them.
35
I'm going to take them, yeah.
36
Yeah.
37
All of them inside.
38
No, that's nice.
39
What does it mean to Halle Wella scene?
40
To make it as simple as possible.
41
Yeah, that's my...
42
without trying to give away too much, that's my process.
43
Yeah, because right now you're thinking about other things, right, you're never fully in the moment, right?
44
You're probably thinking about another thought comes in about life while you're here, trying to put all of that into the one thing and keeping it as simple as possible.
45
Yeah, you're right, I'm kind of anticipating this, like which road is it gonna go down?
46
I'm being present but also thinking about the next thing where maybe I should just be like, just ask the question.
47
You maybe thought about your dinner plans.
48
A sriracha I don't mind normally.
49
What about pickles?
50
Yeah, pickles are good too.
51
That's nice.
52
That's tasty.
53
That's my favorite one.
54
You're not just saying that?
55
I'm not just saying it because it's hot ones.
56
Hashtag ad.
57
No, that is...
58
That just works.
59
Did you make that?
60
Yourself?
61
Well, not me, myself.
62
You know, I can't take all the credit over here.
63
No, someone did.
64
Yeah, yeah.
65
Someone made it.
66
We were a major part of the ideation process, I'll tell you that.
67
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
68
Is there a deeply unglamorous chore that you look back on as bizarrely essential in your character prep?
69
Yeah, I went...
70
My character on Glue was a stable hand, and I'd never been on a horse before in my life.
71
So I went up and there's a stunt family in the UK called the Dents
72
and they let me come and work on their farm and I would go and I would muck out, which is what my character was doing and simultaneously learn how to ride the horse.
73
I don't know if you've ever ridden a horse before, it's just freak man.
74
I lost concentration with the horse.
75
It started to take over and decided to cut through the middle of the pen and head towards a jump.
76
The trainer, Sam Dent, goes, don't go over the jump.
77
The horse listened and I came out of the stirrups, luckily, and went over the jump.
78
And I landed on my back and I remember just laying there, I was looking up at the sky, it was a clear blue sky,
79
and the horse came over and looked over me and went, and walked off.
80
And then Sam came over and she was like, are you okay?
81
Are you okay?
82
I was like, I think so, I think so.
83
And I had my back brace on and everything, so I was fine.
84
Totally bruised.
85
And then she said, you know what you got to do?
86
You got to get back on the horse.
87
That's right.
88
And I did.
89
Black Eyed Susan.
90
I was reading that in Boys in the Boat, you and your castmates, none of you are rowers, but trained for five months and then got to a point where you're doing 46 strokes per minute,
91
the same as the 1936 Olympic team, same pace.
92
Yeah.
93
Is that true?
94
And if so, what was that journey like?
95
Long, long journey.
96
And that 46 strokes per minute, that happened right towards the end.
97
So it was a real sense of achievement for all of us
98
because it was a target that we set at the beginning.
99
And so to be able to do it, but to do it together.
100
And I think that's the thing about rowing is that it's totally a team sport and you have to pull your weight.
101
You can't shy, you can't hide.
102
And so for us to do it, we knew that everyone was in sync entirely.
103
And it was exhilarating to be able to do that.
104
Have you been on the rowing machine?
105
Have you tried that?
106
I've done the rowing machine, but I've never gotten in the boat.
107
I've tried the rowing machine after, and I do like two minutes.
108
Hot and saucy, pickles and scorpion.
109
Right, there you go.
110
This to me, kind of laid action on it.
111
Like, when you first try it, there's a sweetness to it.
112
I'm just waiting for the...
113
The bang.
114
The hammer?
115
Yeah.
116
The bang?
117
Alright.
118
It's like, I feel like you're luring me into a full sense of security.
119
But you have your head on a swivel.
120
You're ready.
121
I'm ready to go.
122
This one's my favorite still, you know?
123
Holding the crown, we'll see you by the end.
124
Maybe that one will be my next favorite.
125
Yeah, and then maybe this one.
126
Maybe, I don't know.
127
For the uninitiated, can you explain what makes Canton Arms the perfect place for a Stones ginger wine?
128
There's only one reason why, and it's because the lady that works there, Margot, she makes it for her.
129
She's the best at Whiskey Max, right?
130
So the reason I discovered this drink was because it was maybe, maybe it was April, and I asked for a hot toddy.
131
And she said, what are you talking about?
132
It's April.
133
You can't have a hot toddy.
134
And I said, well, what can I drink then instead?
135
And she said, let me make you this thing.
136
And she just put it on the bar and she said, whiskey mac. And that's my drink.
137
What makes the River Cafe, as you put it, the mecca of restaurants in London?
138
The food is unbelievable.
139
Every time you go, I'm feeling it on my lips a little bit now.
140
Yeah, yeah.
141
They're not expanding, are they?
142
Many such cases, I'll let you know.
143
I'll let you know.
144
Um, River Cafe is just like the most unbelievable place you can walk into in London to eat food.
145
And then I feel like every trendy restaurant in New York now has a sticky toffee pudding on the menu.
146
Do you think sticky toffee pudding has earned its place as the best representation of British desserts?
147
That was my dessert growing up.
148
It really was.
149
Marty Tracy used to make it all the time.
150
Do you do it with custard or is it with ice cream?
151
I'd like it with an ice cream.
152
You put me on game.
153
You guys don't do custard out here, huh?
154
Sometimes we do a custard.
155
Yeah, but not really.
156
Sometimes we do a custard, but not as like a matter of routine.
157
The tone of your voice there, I could tell.
158
You're like, hey, I have a custard on board.
159
I have a custard on board.
160
I have a custard on.
161
Well, when you come to London, let me know and we'll go find some good custard.
162
A proper custard, a proper sticky toffee pudding.
163
I'll hold you to that.
164
And some ice cream in there as well.
165
That is, that's delicious.
166
I like, yeah, returning the favor.
167
I bring the heat.
168
Yeah, I bring the cold.
169
Done.
170
The bomb is looking at me.
171
And again, sweetness up front.
172
Yeah.
173
I like that.
174
It does feel, taste tropical. As described, as advertised.
175
Yeah, man.
176
That's what it says on the bottle.
177
Is it true that you once did 46 takes for a single scene in Tramps?
178
And if so, is that your personal record?
179
And do you remember which take they used?
180
Number one.
181
That's always how it goes.
182
No, he used number 36, I think.
183
But I remember it was such a technical thing
184
and we were filming up in Queens and it's like where the subway goes over ground.
185
And I was running down the stairs and Grace Van Patten, who's in the movie with me, really technical, brilliant shot.
186
And I remember at lunch, because we'd only had the morning to shoot it, Adam Leon, the director, came up to me at lunch and he said, we don't have it.
187
I was like, what do you mean you don't have it?
188
How can we not have it?
189
We've done like 30 takes or something.
190
And he was like, we're going again.
191
And I'm so glad he did because there was something, I think, in both Grace and I, there was like a rage.
192
Like served the scene.
193
That served the scene, yeah.
194
Like the determination to go and get it.
195
This one's got more of a gloss.
196
And then a lot like this zone, it's one of those where there's that sweetness up front and then a time delay.
197
We've gone from Jamaica to China. And then to hell.
198
And then straight to hell.
199
Do you have an all-time favorite memory at Stamford Bridge?
200
I do actually, yeah.
201
I was 13 or 14 and Chelsea were playing Barcelona.
202
And it's a famous game, Ronaldinho scores this incredible goal.
203
And it was maybe the first half had just kicked off and we broke into the stadium.
204
We broke into the stadium and we weren't the only ones breaking into the stadium.
205
And it was the combination of the exhilaration of breaking into the stadium
206
and we were right at the very top
207
and there was maybe 200 other people that had done it
208
and we were watching this game and then we got we got kicked out and we broke it again.
209
It could keep you out.
210
Broken again.
211
Just one of those like teenage coming of age.
212
Totally and I was with my best friend Atam
213
and some other people
214
and going to watch Barcelona who were the greatest team with Ronaldinho who was the greatest player
215
and my team playing against them you know it was like real sense of pride
216
but we scored a fourth goal it was ahead of john terry scored the header
217
and i just remember it was like carnage and demonio
218
and there was so many people that had broken in
219
so yeah you're like with your flock with a bunch of
220
people i didn't know yeah you got another question for me before the bomb all right the bomb it's that time
221
Yeah, definitely spicy.
222
Yeah, different level.
223
And you know how some of these were talking about like waiting around for it.
224
Like this one you don't wait around for.
225
And my mom is actually really into hot sauces.
226
She's got into them over the last three or four years.
227
Well, you got ten more you can introduce her to.
228
Maybe she watches your show.
229
Yeah.
230
That's why.
231
Ask her.
232
You know what told me why.
233
Trace back the origin story.
234
Yeah, that's got a real violence to it.
235
A mouth on fire.
236
So George McKay once said of you, there's not a film this man hasn't seen.
237
So to put that to the test, I was hoping I could give you some obscure film prompts, all right?
238
And then maybe you could give me a movie recommendation based on the prompt, okay?
239
I'm trying to build a foundational knowledge of mid-20th century minimalist cinema.
240
Which Robert Bresson film would you recommend as an entry point?
241
El Khazad Balthazar.
242
It's about a donkey.
243
And it just follows his donkey's...
244
My mouth is on fire.
245
It just follows his donkey's life.
246
And there are highs and lows of this sweet animal.
247
But it's a really beautiful, touching, touching film.
248
Yeah, I just love it.
249
So that would be that.
250
And maybe La Jeune, too.
251
A little double feature.
252
Back to back.
253
What's the best film recommendation you've ever received from Daniel Day-Lewis?
254
Be careful around the eyes.
255
Be careful around the eyes.
256
There is a documentary.
257
It's about the workers in this mining town, Revolt.
258
And they protest.
259
And it's really, truly an incredible film.
260
Can you give me a film that rewards patients?
261
I'm glad that you're on the same wavelength.
262
It's in the name, man i know yeah it comes right out you know that's
263
the thing these sauces they've been telling the truth you know
264
like yeah tropical amarillo yeah tastes like the tropics yeah the
265
bomb beyond insanity truly beyond insanity can you give me a film
266
that rewards patience like maybe takes a long time to hook you
267
but once it has its claws in it doesn't let go barry linden it's stanley Kubrick
268
and it's about this Irish guy who is kicked out of his family for falling in love with his cousin
269
and uh he goes on this epic journey it's truly beautiful
270
if you were to put together a Jack Nicholson double feature to show off his range as an actor
271
which two films would you pair
272
to show off his range i just i five easy pieces
273
and then the king of Marvin Gardens which are both Bob Raffleson films
274
and he did them pretty much back to back too.
275
It's my lips.
276
I know such is the experience.
277
So here's what I'll say.
278
I'm breaking this down for you.
279
Nothing is as bad as what you just ate.
280
The next ones are hot but I don't think anything truly compares to that.
281
What do you do?
282
You don't do the water at all huh?
283
You know what?
284
I kind of have this habit of mirroring the guests but you know what Callum?
285
I think I've just been so lost in conversation.
286
You know, on wing two, you told me to simplify it.
287
You know?
288
And you made it as simple as possible.
289
Yeah, like before what I would do is I'd have like another part of my brain would tell me like,
290
match the guest's energy, but I've simplified it to just ask the question.
291
The truth is, i'm a pretty simple guy so
292
if i try to over complicate things it's all gonna fall
293
down that's why i make it as simple as possible
294
but it's your words that's the inspiration all right
295
good luck see what to us both yeah now nothing easy about that one
296
but I think like oh it's coming at it'll not easy the bomb really does eliminate any fear
297
that you have going for any you know it can't be more than
298
that yeah what's the origin story of the nickname McGuro man.
299
When I was in a...
300
They just remind you of your own life a little bit?
301
Yeah.
302
I lived in Japan when I was 18 for six months
303
and I didn't have that much money and I would go to the same sushi place, same sushi counter, because I ordered ni maguru,
304
which is two tuna sushis, please.
305
I had ordered that every day.
306
And the chef, after about a week, he was taking the mick out of me.
307
But he'd go, maguru man, every time I walked in.
308
So that's how I got that name.
309
There's only one person who calls me.
310
I haven't seen him for 15 years.
311
This makes it special.
312
I wonder if you walked in now.
313
It's not my nickname.
314
I wonder if you walked in now, you know, if you'd Greek you the exact same way.
315
It's like, this is your life.
316
Japan edition.
317
Alright.
318
Do I put it on?
319
I'm gonna follow your lead.
320
Does everyone in this room love hot sauce?
321
No, it's a mixed bag actually.
322
You'd be surprised.
323
How I think I might be the only person in here that's like run this gauntlet, yeah.
324
Ever in the history of the show.
325
Alright.
326
You've dabbed already.
327
Okay.
328
How much extra are you going for?
329
Right here.
330
A little glisten.
331
That's perfect.
332
That's technical.
333
Life's on off death.
334
the wings of death are behind us you've conquered the hot ones gauntlet with
335
that final bite and to close things out you know as we've covered you're a genuine film obsessive
336
so what i want to do is play a game called 10 second reviews where i give you a film
337
but you only have 10 seconds to review it with your brain and mouth on fire okay are you ready Okay.
338
What do you have on the 1985 Soviet epic, Come and See?
339
Come and See is about a boy who, in a small village, is made into a...
340
He has to protect his village against the Nazis and goes off...
341
Time!
342
What makes Free Willy a certified classic?
343
King of age, brilliant orca acting, and Michael Mazden, my first introduction to Michael Mazden.
344
That was right on the time.
345
You're catching the time.
346
And then finally, what do you have on Scorsese's 1973 crime drama Mean Streets?
347
A tale of brotherhood in hell.
348
Look at you turning this into five second reviews.
349
This guy's panicking.
350
Less is more, man.
351
Simplify it.
352
Take those, exactly.
353
A theme throughout, simplifying the process, and look at you taking on the Hot Ones gauntlet, living to tell the tale, and now there's nothing left to do but roll out the red carpet for you.
354
This camera, this camera, this camera.
355
Let the people know what you have going on in your life.
356
One Night Only, out on August 7th.
357
It's a throwback to old school rom-coms, and I hope you love it.
358
Thank you man.
359

360
I love Vtime, yeah.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
