Go to Google, baby.

Google.

I am in Far Cry,

which is a great game.

I play Anton Castillo, the head of a small Latin American country,

dictator a very interesting man I'm also in I play the

2 yes I got it what is Giancarlo Esposito most famous

for what is Giancarlo Esposito most famous for he's most famous for playing Gustavo Fring,

kingpin of the meth world in Breaking Bad.

You are done.

I got into an airplane.

I wanted to go to the bathroom.

And a woman was standing there.

She turned around and she just froze.

And she was totally in shock.

And she hit the wall.

And she's up against the wall.

And she...

You can go, Gus.

And I was stunned.

I said, no, no, please.

You know, ladies first.

You go.

No, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, you go.

And so I went inside the bathroom,

did what I had to do,

came back out, and she's up against the wall,

still peeled, pinned to it,

and I said, thank you very much.

And I walked away.

Okay, what languages does Giancarlo Esposito speak?

English, baby.

My first language was a bit of German,

as my mother and father were working in Hamburg.

My mother was singing at the Hamburg Stats Opera.

And then Italian.

My father is from Naples, Italy.

And so my father and mother spoke Italian in the home.

Then when we got to Germany, some German.

And then my third language is gibberish.

Because my head was so full of languages that I really couldn't process them all.

And English was throwing me.

And so the third language was gibberish.

And then the fourth language,

through the roles I play,

I said I'm part Italian and part African American,

but I couldn't get those African American roles.

So I learned how to speak a little Spanish.

Okay, oh wait, am I in the right place?

Yes, I am.

What is Giancarlo Esposito?

What is Giancarlo Esposito's accent?

Well, when I say my name,

Giancarlo Giuseppe Alessandro Esposito, my accent is Italian.

For many years I pronounced my name Esposito and I grew up with the Esposito brothers who were hockey players.

So I understood that to be the pronunciation.

I went back to Italy and I could literally be riding a bicycle in the mountains in Milan,

outside of Milan in Lake Como,

and someone would roll down the window, Giancarlo Esposito!

Giancarlo Esposito!

And I'm like, okay.

And I had a buddy in Italy who said,

why do you pronounce your name Esposito?

It's so American.

Like, it's just not you.

And everyone says that sounds Spanish because there isn't Espinoso.

I said, no, I'm very Italian.

Look at me.

Very Italian.

Giancarlo Esposito.

Next.

Wow, you're so good at this.

Where is Giancarlo Esposito from?

My mother was performing with Josephine Baker in Copenhagen in a supper club.

And so I was born there.

However, I grew up in Rome,

Italy, because my father was from Naples.

He was working in the opera house,

and my mother and father traveled around with each other as he became sort of her manager,

and she sang in different supper clubs and opera houses,

eventually winding up at Alla Scala in Milano.

They met in San Carlo Opera in Napoli.

So, So I'm very proud of where I'm from and I'm very proud to be,

you know, raised in America,

but I'm completely proud of my Italian heritage and my African American heritage.

When did Giancarlo Esposito start acting?

I started acting at eight years old.

We were living in a basement apartment in Yorkers,

New York, and we were really poor because my mother and father were getting divorced after 11 years of marriage.

I was watching a TV show called Gigantor with my brother.

And there was a commercial that came on,

and it was the first time I ever saw a brown-skinned person on a commercial.

And it was a kid,

100

like 15, 16 years old.

101

My mother came home and said,

102

I can do this, we can do this.

103

We're eating frankenbeans, we're eating grits with ketchup, we can do this.

104

And she took us to an agent,

105

Ernestine McClendon, and I auditioned within two weeks for my first Broadway show called Maggie Flynn with Jack Cassidy and Shirley Jones.

106

That was 58 years ago.

107

When Wednesday dances Giancarlo, Oh yeah, that's it, right?

108

When Wednesday dances.

109

This is a special one for me because I got a call

110

and I love Jenna Ortega and I got a call to do this Netflix promo and I love Netflix.

111

I've had a number of shows on Netflix,

112

you can look them up,

113

many of them are on now,

114

but I have to tell you,

115

you know, to be loosey-goosey and have fun,

116

this was one of my most favorite things I ever did.

117

So getting there, I'm like doing my research,

118

you know, checking out Wednesday,

119

checking out her moves and figuring out how to just be that Castilian, oh!

120

Very big and very wonderful.

121

And I had a blast,

122

a real blast doing this and I wanna do more.

123

What fun that was.

124

Wow, I'm getting this a little bit now.

125

Okay, so does Giancarlo Esposito like playing villains?

126

You know, I am a dramatic actor and I have always resisted this question.

127

So when you ask me this question,

128

I want to say to you, I will kill you.

129

But I was thinking about this.

130

In the last 24 hours,

131

I thought to myself, you know what?

132

You love playing villains.

133

This is my favorite thing in life.

134

I saw a picture with James Cagney.

135

Many of you will not know who James Cagney is.

136

Many years ago, public enemy.

137

And at the end, he is on top of a scaffold with a machine gun.

138

He's like, top of the world, ma!

139

Top of the world!

140

And I saw that movie and I went,

141

This dude is having so much fun.

142

I went, the villain is complicated.

143

The villain is interesting.

144

The villain is someone that we don't know.

145

We wonder why he's so villainous.

146

And if you're in for a penny,

147

you're in for a pound.

148

If you're gonna do it,

149

you gotta do it right.

150

The villain is the antithesis of a hero and some of them have good intentions,

151

many of them not, but they're interesting and they drive the story

152

and they're electric and they're exciting and you can't take your eyes off of them.

153

So yes, I have just outed myself to say I love to scare the other people.

154

Next, does Giancarlo Esposito like anime?

155

I love anime.

156

I have no favorite anime,

157

but I think anime is extremely interesting.

158

I do go to Comic Cons,

159

and I do see people dress up.

160

I was in an anime called Cyberpunk,

161

and it was a really interesting thing.

162

It was a really great project for me to do,

163

playing Faraday, to make that guy live and breathe in our American culture,

164

but have the influence of that Japanese anime.

165

How?

166

How long did Giancarlo Esposito live in Denmark?

167

Okay, the answer is...

168

I can't remember.

169

No, just kidding.

170

The answer is one year.

171

Again, my mother was performing with Josephine Baker,

172

who years ago I eventually met in Toronto when I was nine years old,

173

doing my first out-of-town tour for Maggie Flynn.

174

But I lived in Denmark for one year, and I loved it.

175

How did Giancarlo Esposito get famous?

176

You know, wow, what a question that is.

177

How does anyone get famous?

178

How did I get famous?

179

If you love what you do,

180

you never work a day in your life.

181

So I commit, I commit myself to the reality of what I do.

182

I realize that there are up and downs in everyone's careers.

183

I never try to be a celebrity or a star.

184

I just try to be me and to understand what my connection is to the work I'm doing.

185

And that's probably how I got famous.

186

How did Giancarlo Esposito start acting?

187

Well, I told a part of this story.

188

It was through needing to have a better life,

189

you know, economically after my mother and my father's divorce.

190

It was realizing that I loved performing.

191

There were other things I loved too,

192

but it was asking myself a question after many years of up and downs,

193

if this was supposed to be what I was meant to do.

194

Like, we're meant to do a lot of things.

195

I asked myself, is this what you were meant to do?

196

And I was meant to be a storyteller.

197

That's what I do.

198

I think my true calling was to tell a story and to move people from one place to another in their consciousness.

199

Because after 15, 20 years of acting in the theater,

200

I decided I wanted to move to film and television.

201

But I also knew that that took work.

202

That took a different acting style.

203

That took becoming smaller, more compressed.

204

Having a thought in my head when you're watching me that you can't read and you're wondering,

205

what is he thinking right now?

206

That is committing to doing something that you love,

207

but also going to class, figuring yourself out.

208

And I think we're all on that journey.

209

I know I am.

210

How do you pronounce Giancarlo Esposito?

211

Well, my name once again is Giancarlo Giuseppe Alessandro Esposito.

212

Next.

213

I'm getting into this now.

214

Come on, bring in some more cards, mama.

215

Okay.

216

Is Giancarlo Esposito Italian?

217

Yes, completely Italian.

218

Is Giancarlo Esposito a nice guy?

219

Oh my gosh, I know these are not your questions, Wired.

220

I know these are the fan questions.

221

I am a nice guy.

222

You know, I have a lot of integrity for who I am today,

223

but I may not be that tomorrow.

224

And that's okay, but underneath it all,

225

I believe people are intrinsically good.

226

That's certainly my life.

227

So yeah, I've come to realize I'm not all the characters I play,

228

but I really love life and I love people.

229

I've done one comedy, Nothing to Lose.

230

No one asked that, but I'm gonna tell you.

231

But I also wanna do a romantic comedy,

232

and it would be nice to figure out how do you

233

do a romantic comedy with someone who is maybe a little more mature than our young romantic comedies?

234

And so we're gonna figure that out.

235

But yeah, I'm a nice guy most of the time.

236

Is Giancarlo Esposito a director?

237

Wow, yeah, I am a director.

238

That changed my life too.

239

You know, you make these turns in your life.

240

I've directed two feature films.

241

I love directing because I feel like you can tell more personal stories

242

that are relatable to an audience that sometimes doesn't get targeted with movies that they can really understand about everyday people.

243

And so yes, I'll direct more and look out for that.

244

You have to go see it.

245

You gotta go to the theaters, people.

246

Does Giancarlo Espotio have children?

247

I have four daughters who I absolutely adore and they've changed my life.

248

Shane, Kale, Sear, and Ruby.

249

And they're all in their 20s.

250

And they've changed the way I think about the habits that I've taken on from my father.

251

So my girls have grown me in the world of,

252

you know what I say,

253

my girls have really helped me be a real man.

254

Giancarlo Esposito, do the right thing.

255

I love Ozzie Davis's line in that.

256

He tells Spike Lee, young man,

257

always do the right thing.

258

I love this movie, I love Spike Lee,

259

it was really fun to do.

260

Creating the character of Buggin' Out,

261

that guy who is questioning how it all works,

262

and why don't you have any,

263

why don't you got no brothers on the wall?

264

Is a very, very special experience for me.

265

The movie lives on, I saw it in the Netherlands about five years ago,

266

and it really still holds up.

267

And it's been great to have this friendship and love for Spike Lee and all that he stands for.

268

Giancarlo Esposito, laughing meme, oh my gosh!

269

I get these laughing memes five times a day from people that I know.

270

We are not the same.

271

It's a whole nother world to get famous in,

272

and I'm really happy that it came out of a really organic place that people know me.

273

Giancarlo Esposito, The Residence.

274

A show I really love.

275

A show that's on Netflix right now.

276

It is Knives Out in the White House.

277

I play A.B.

278

Winter.

279

I start out on the floor.

280

You see my feet.

281

A.B.

282

Winter, chief White House usher,

283

responsible of all the workings,

284

comings and goings, to have a smoothly working White House.

285

And this role of Cordelia Cupp by Uzo Aduba is absolutely spectacular.

286

It is a fantastic show.

287

The White House is recreated within inches of exactly what it is.

288

You get a tour of this place,

289

but you get a chance to see the show through all the suspect's eyes to figure out who done it.

290

You know I didn't because I'm dead on the floor,

291

but who done it.

292

You are going to love it,

293

and I'm very proud to have been in it.

294

Giancarlo Esposito, voice acting.

295

You know, part of what I do requires a lot of it,

296

a lot of imagination.

297

And if I can encourage you guys to have anything and to cultivate anything,

298

it would be your imagination.

299

And so when I'm in the room,

300

in the booth, voice acting, I really love it.

301

I'm cultivating my imagination.

302

Sometimes I close my eyes and I take the journey of the carriage,

303

because many times, whether you know it or not,

304

I'm not looking at a screen matching something.

305

I'm creating the voice so they can match to me.

306

I use my voice well for my Broadway acting days,

307

and I love voice acting,

308

and I'll continue to do that until the day I die.

309

I love it.

310

See you next time.

311

Those are all the searches.

312

I want to thank you for having me today.

313

It's been so much fun.
