There’s nothing quite like seeing two A-list actors try to interview each other, and Variety knows it. The trade publication hosts a series of actor-on-actor interviews, and the latest batch has some fun pair-ups.
Variety announced its latest round of “Actors on Actors” interviews on the platform formerly known as Twitter, and two of the pairings are especially delightful. The first is between Robert Downey Jr. and Mark Ruffalo who, of course, were in several Marvel Cinematic Universe movies together as Iron Man and the Hulk, respectively. How much they talk about the MCU, however, is unclear, as the two have impressive resumes beyond those films, including both being in Zodiac.
Another fun pairing is between Margot Robbie and Cillian Murphy who, as you likely know, were on opposite sides of the Barbenheimer phenomenon this summer, with Cillian Murphy playing Barbie in Barbie and Margot Robbie playing Oppenheimer in Oppenheimer (okay, strike that and reverse the actors and their roles, but I would pay real dollars to see the two play their counterparts).
While those two stand out for genre folks, there are also more than a few other fun pairings heading our way, including Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway (The Devil Wears Prada), Annette Bening and Julianne Moore (The Kids Are All Right), and Emma Stone and Bradley Cooper (Aloha, unfortunately).
You can see the whole list here, and you can watch them all over four episodes that will debut on PBS SoCal on Jan. 11 at 8 to 10 p.m PT. All episodes will also stream on pbssocal.org and the free PBS App after their premiere.
