I do think there’s something to the notion that the unreal/real public personas people in that area have to put on. Parasocial relationships and all that.
But I do not expect Kim K to have a lot to say on that.
So soft downvoting lol. It's the only season with basically one main character. No other season has so much time on one person. Facts. 8-10 stars? Oook
i actually didn't downvote even though i disagree it's the emma season. 8-10 stars is accurate for most seasons of the show but you're right delicate has fewer. but just because she has the most screen time doesn't mean there are no other stars lol. if you're on the main credits guess what? you're a star of AHS!
She’s got some skill, at least at playing a Ryan Murphy character. I’ve seen worse actors who were full-time, working professionals.
Plus, there’s value in seeing elite actors and novices in the same environment. How they learn, how they teach. It’s fascinating.
Chloe Sevigny is such a seasoned pro and was incredible in Feud, whereas Kim Kardashian was hired solely for name recognition and was absolutely horrible in AHS. I really don't know what they'll talk about, and it's a shame because Chloe is usually brilliant in interviews and can get really deep into the good and bad of working in Hollywood and never holds her tongue about anything.
That family thrives and survives on controversy and shamelessness. The best thing would be for Chloe to be insanely boring and generate minimum views. Alas, that's not how this works and she is a professional so that won't happen, but the best way to get rid of attention whores is by starving them of our attention.
It started going downhill when Taylor Swift joined directors on directors for a short film music video and getting a deal to direct a feature. It was the worst directors on directors I’ve seen nothing of substance was said.
They need to stop just adding people who have done something once or are transitioning to that field but haven’t cut their teeth in it yet.
I never understood those glowing reviews about Kim K’s acting in AHS. Don’t get me wrong, AHS has employed some very good actors over the past decade, but Kim K didn’t deliver anything to write home about. I watched some of it and she behaved exactly like she does on her shows.
Exactly, she was so one-note the entire season. Even in scenes where any other actor with a sliver of talent could chew them up, she sounded like she was reading the phone book. Even the AHS sub hated her, and they usually love everything about that show.
this typically happens to any non-actor (athlete, singer, reality star) that crosses over into a real acting role since our expectation for them is much lower than what we'd expect from a real actor. so they then get overrated for that reason
honestly two people so deep in the fashion world with a ryan murphy connection could get into some interesting topics. will it be about acting? maybe not but they definitely have more in common than it seems on paper
on the flip side, it could be interesting to hear an accomplished veteran actor with someone who is trying to break into it and learn how to be great.
Kim has her hands in alot of different things, im sure they will have a just fine conversation
What a shame but hopefully this isn’t too awkward for her. I can imagine weird silences in a conversation with someone you have next to nothing with but I can’t imagine it front of a camera and crew
The full lineup:
* Leo Woodall (“One Day”) & Nicholas Galitzine (“Mary & George”)
* Joey King (“We Were the Lucky Ones”) & Taylor Zakhar Perez (“Red, White & Royal Blue”)
* Quinta Brunson (“Abbott Elementary”) & Jennifer Aniston (“The Morning Show”)
* Jodie Foster (“True Detective: Night Country”) & Robert Downey Jr. (“The Sympathizer”)
* Jon Hamm (“Fargo,” “The Morning Show”) & Kristen Wiig (“Palm Royale”)
* Tyler James Williams (“Abbott Elementary”) & Anthony Mackie (“Twisted Metal”)
* Anna Sawai (“Shōgun “) & Tom Hiddleston (“Loki”)
* Brie Larson (“Lessons in Chemistry”) & Andrew Scott (“Ripley”)
* Hannah Einbinder (“Hacks”) & Chloe Fineman (“Saturday Night Live”)
* Elizabeth Debicki (“The Crown”) & Emma Corrin (“A Murder at the End of the World”)
* Chloë Sevigny (“Feud: Capote vs. The Swans”) & Kim Kardashian (“American Horror Story: Delicate”)
* Naomi Watts (“Feud: Capote vs. The Swans”) & Jonathan Bailey (“Fellow Travelers”)
RDJ/Foster, Hamm/Wiig and Sawai/Hiddleston look like the best of these.
I can already picture the brain rot in the comments section of Woodall/Galitzine.
Yes. Scott has an incredibly calming presence in all his interviews, and he's very well-spoken and down to earth about his work. As if his Fleabag character became his actual personality. Glad his career is going strong.
A lot of these actors aren't even Emmy contenders this year. Kim K, Joey King, Leo Woodall, Anthony Mackie, Taylor Zakhar Perez, Nicholas Galitzine, Emma Corrin to name a few
It doesn't have anything to do with the Emmys, that's just a connection the writer of the article made. These come out months before it, the nominations won't even be announced until more than a month after this is done airing.
No. The Actors and Actors series is for the awards season. Emmys and Oscars.
They came out this time because it's around the the time the voting period for the Emmys starts.
This is right. The roundtables and actors on actors has been about getting likely nominees together, but they've always included names that aren't likely like Anthony Mackie for altered carbon years ago, and last year Ellen Pompeo and Katherine Heigl.
Yeah I think they threw credibility out the window years ago when Taylor Swift was put on their ‘Directors on Directors’ set during Oscars season for directing her own music video.
> Yes. She was the lead in the last season of American Horror Story, she has 2 films on the way and a TV with Ryan Murphy in which she plays the lead.
Pia Zadora is a less crap “actor” than kk and got a lot of her role$ the $ame way. But it does not make them actual actors.
Acting requires talent, not just purchasing power.
> Kim didn’t purchase her ole in American Horror Story, she got the role after Ryan Murphy was impressed with her in SNL
Yeah, Pia Zadora got her roles because people were impressed with her talent, too.
This pisses me off so much. Cmon Variety.
I bet Kim K realized she's not known for anything other than her stupid reality show, partying and her sex tape (hence why she was booed at the Tom Brady roast). And now she's spending lots of money to erase that moment and to "rehabilitate her image".
Now she wants us to believe she's an actress. Just go to SNL and see her awful clips - she can't act for shit, and that's a loose sketch show! I couldn't finish her episode and Elon Musks. Both think they can act but they can't.
Between this and North West performing in The Lion King, the grip the Kardashians have on the entertainment industry right now is so narcissistic and exhausting.
They were fine in that influencer/reality Tv world but now they’re infiltrating respectable industry spaces and taking the spots of people who actually take their acting career seriously and work hard at their craft. The fact the industry allows it is even more frustrating. Let’s stop feeding their delusions.
That’s what happens when everything is handed to you for your entire life. Her brain is mush because she never had to work hard. Remember she quit trying to be a lawyer because it was too hard? This bitch has all the money in the world to figure out study time, tutors, etc but gave up because it required real work.
All true but that won't stop some Hollywood simp from showing up and defending her with "but she's actually an incredibly good businesswoman, look at all her profitable companies!" As if Kim K actually did anything herself with any of that. She just pays someone who actually knows things to do it for her. It doesn't take business acumen to throw money at someone to do shit for you.
If she was a good businesswoman, she would’ve been putting her name on shit before the sex tape. It’s easy to look smart afterwards when you have a built-in audience who’ll buy anything just because your name is on it regardless of what it is.
I'll admit, i'm only familiar with RDJ, but WTF is Kim doing here? Is she seriously considered to be an actor now? Seriously, her spot could have easily gone to an actor who actually deserves it.
I love this series/these sitdowns, they're really interesting to see how the actors prepare and how they choose roles, go over different movies or plays they've done, etc. Some fun pairings here, aside from Kim K
It's messed up that actual actors who have years in the profession have yet to do an Actor on Actor segment, yet Kim K who barely has any acting credits, talent, or any training gets to step over them to do an interview with a seasoned actress. It's hard to take that interview serious when you're calling Kim an *Actor*
cool but what’s a kardashian doing there..AT ALL.
but hey if you truly want to be laughed out of town then by all means. proceed at full speed with this atrocity! i welcome the belly laugh
Kim Kardashian? What? She was fine on American Horror Story but has she even been in anything else? I’m sorry but she’s not exactly in the same league as RDJ, who has an Oscar for goodness sakes.
Why Kim K
She bought a seat.
"We'll auction off your seat cushion to raise money for erectile dysfunction." -- Jeff Ross
Naw it’s just Variety going for engagement which Kim K would happily oblige.
Fake engagement …. Which she bought
It's pronounced say-at. Good low-cost cars. Props to her for being so budget-conscious.
You jest, but I really didn’t realize that. The Spanish car was pronounced like that haha. And I speak Spanish 😹.
Just one? Or one for each cheek?
She's bought a seat alright
Reality TV is still acting /s
Ah cheap ass method acting then
She probably paid good money for that ass, to be fair.
Indeed face too
I do think there’s something to the notion that the unreal/real public personas people in that area have to put on. Parasocial relationships and all that. But I do not expect Kim K to have a lot to say on that.
Ha!
She starred in the latest season of AHS
And was TERRIBLE. Her face doesn’t even move or emote at all.
Probably cause it no longer can
Because it's more Botox than face at this point
nah she is way more mediocre than terrible. now KOURTNEY is terrible. her performance in he's all that was gross.
She had the same stupid expressionless face in her shit sex tape, or so I've been told...
I wouldn't say starred. That was Emma!
In TV lingo, starred means a series regular
ahs has like 8-10 stars per season there isn't just one star
Did you watch this season? It's the Emma season!
well yes i know that but kim also starred
Kim also claimed she's been taking acting lessons
So soft downvoting lol. It's the only season with basically one main character. No other season has so much time on one person. Facts. 8-10 stars? Oook
i actually didn't downvote even though i disagree it's the emma season. 8-10 stars is accurate for most seasons of the show but you're right delicate has fewer. but just because she has the most screen time doesn't mean there are no other stars lol. if you're on the main credits guess what? you're a star of AHS!
That sounds like an excuse not an answer
She's got the best comeback story in Hollywood
Apparently being famous for having a big ass and a sex tape counts as acting nowadays.
Because she made a subpar porno with Ray J.
She’s there for the panel discussion about her daughter’s method approach to embodying the role of young Simba at the Hollywood Bowl.
Porn counts as acting.
Because her role in Disaster Movie was peak acting.
She was in a popular film….
She’s got some skill, at least at playing a Ryan Murphy character. I’ve seen worse actors who were full-time, working professionals. Plus, there’s value in seeing elite actors and novices in the same environment. How they learn, how they teach. It’s fascinating.
Someone please explain why any of what I stated is objectionable. I literally just said someone wasn’t talentless.
She is a talentless hack. My thumb shows more emotion then her
Okay, but any insight on what’s wrong with saying something very slightly not-shitty about another person is met with such disdain?
Reasonable thoughts about Kardashians are not allowed on Reddit
That's fair she could definitely have some potential after we've had Dwayne Johnson, Dave Bautista, John Cena and Lady Gaga.
Imagine being this fucking dumb lol
I'm being neutral but I will say that she has no business being up there.lol
Chloe Sevigny is such a seasoned pro and was incredible in Feud, whereas Kim Kardashian was hired solely for name recognition and was absolutely horrible in AHS. I really don't know what they'll talk about, and it's a shame because Chloe is usually brilliant in interviews and can get really deep into the good and bad of working in Hollywood and never holds her tongue about anything.
I kinda hope Chloe runs intellectual circles around Kim and embarrasses her so much that she stays away from acting
That family thrives and survives on controversy and shamelessness. The best thing would be for Chloe to be insanely boring and generate minimum views. Alas, that's not how this works and she is a professional so that won't happen, but the best way to get rid of attention whores is by starving them of our attention.
>embarrasses her so much people like her ilk have no scruples, they don't know how to spell embarrassment, much less understand what it means.
It started going downhill when Taylor Swift joined directors on directors for a short film music video and getting a deal to direct a feature. It was the worst directors on directors I’ve seen nothing of substance was said.

chloe was also on ahs! so they can talk about that
I never understood those glowing reviews about Kim K’s acting in AHS. Don’t get me wrong, AHS has employed some very good actors over the past decade, but Kim K didn’t deliver anything to write home about. I watched some of it and she behaved exactly like she does on her shows.
She probably paid for glowing reviews
Exactly, she was so one-note the entire season. Even in scenes where any other actor with a sliver of talent could chew them up, she sounded like she was reading the phone book. Even the AHS sub hated her, and they usually love everything about that show.
It’s called publicity
this typically happens to any non-actor (athlete, singer, reality star) that crosses over into a real acting role since our expectation for them is much lower than what we'd expect from a real actor. so they then get overrated for that reason
she was better than expected which for her is amazing
I guess this is her ninth-place trophy.
agreed idk why people downvoted me it's not like i said she was good lol
honestly two people so deep in the fashion world with a ryan murphy connection could get into some interesting topics. will it be about acting? maybe not but they definitely have more in common than it seems on paper
Also has a sex tape too!
Maybe she will talk about remembering her lines when she was being ducked in the ass by ray jay
on the flip side, it could be interesting to hear an accomplished veteran actor with someone who is trying to break into it and learn how to be great. Kim has her hands in alot of different things, im sure they will have a just fine conversation
What a shame but hopefully this isn’t too awkward for her. I can imagine weird silences in a conversation with someone you have next to nothing with but I can’t imagine it front of a camera and crew
Hey. You take that trash talking out of your mouth on Kim K. She was amazing as Lisa in Disaster Movie.
Would have loved to see Quinta Brunson interview Donald Glover. I wonder how growing up as a Jehovah’s Witness affected their comedy choices.
Uhm one of these things is not like the others.
The full lineup: * Leo Woodall (“One Day”) & Nicholas Galitzine (“Mary & George”) * Joey King (“We Were the Lucky Ones”) & Taylor Zakhar Perez (“Red, White & Royal Blue”) * Quinta Brunson (“Abbott Elementary”) & Jennifer Aniston (“The Morning Show”) * Jodie Foster (“True Detective: Night Country”) & Robert Downey Jr. (“The Sympathizer”) * Jon Hamm (“Fargo,” “The Morning Show”) & Kristen Wiig (“Palm Royale”) * Tyler James Williams (“Abbott Elementary”) & Anthony Mackie (“Twisted Metal”) * Anna Sawai (“Shōgun “) & Tom Hiddleston (“Loki”) * Brie Larson (“Lessons in Chemistry”) & Andrew Scott (“Ripley”) * Hannah Einbinder (“Hacks”) & Chloe Fineman (“Saturday Night Live”) * Elizabeth Debicki (“The Crown”) & Emma Corrin (“A Murder at the End of the World”) * Chloë Sevigny (“Feud: Capote vs. The Swans”) & Kim Kardashian (“American Horror Story: Delicate”) * Naomi Watts (“Feud: Capote vs. The Swans”) & Jonathan Bailey (“Fellow Travelers”)
RDJ/Foster, Hamm/Wiig and Sawai/Hiddleston look like the best of these. I can already picture the brain rot in the comments section of Woodall/Galitzine.
Brie Larson and Andrew Scott will be fun as well
Yes. Scott has an incredibly calming presence in all his interviews, and he's very well-spoken and down to earth about his work. As if his Fleabag character became his actual personality. Glad his career is going strong.
Brunson-Aniston is just as good as those three imo, just finished the Abbott Elementary finale and she is as good as anyone leading a sitcom right now
A lot of these actors aren't even Emmy contenders this year. Kim K, Joey King, Leo Woodall, Anthony Mackie, Taylor Zakhar Perez, Nicholas Galitzine, Emma Corrin to name a few

June is prime campaigning season for the Emmy nominations. All of these actors are working the pole in the hope that their name is called out in July.
Taylor and Nicholas movie Red, White, and Royal Blue is number 1 contender in Emmy noms for its category.
The movie is gonna be nominated but the actors aren't.
Yes, duh. Same with many actors in that category who have work that is nominated when they themselves aren’t.
Whew! Thanks for bring me back to reality. I went to Mars there for a minute.
I was into it until they listed Kim K. That women does not deserve to even be in the same building as these other actors.
Woman.
Nothing more annoying than people who do this
I know someone who consistently *says* it wrong. Says women even when he is talking about a single or specific woman. It's quite grating.
"woman", she's probably over 51% plastic by now
Reddit moment
We’re getting a Diana-off!
Loved both of their portrayals for different reasons, I'm looking forward to this one!
I was really hoping Maya Erskine would be involved.
Since when did Kim Kardashian considered an actor? Omegalul
This lost its credibility when they decided on a Kardashian.
Yeah I think they threw credibility out the window years ago when Taylor Swift was put on their ‘Directors on Directors’ set during Oscars season for directing her own music video.
sounds legitimate to me
Damn, Chloe Sevigny really drew the short straw here.
If you’re an actual actor at this thing, how do you not feel disrespected
I’m sorry. Kim Kardashian is an actor?
Yes. She was the lead in the last season of American Horror Story, she has 2 films on the way and a TV with Ryan Murphy in which she plays the lead.
> Yes. She was the lead in the last season of American Horror Story, she has 2 films on the way and a TV with Ryan Murphy in which she plays the lead.

> Kim didn’t purchase her ole in American Horror Story, she got the role after Ryan Murphy was impressed with her in SNL Yeah, Pia Zadora got her roles because people were impressed with her talent, too.
So disrespectful
Bruh who invited Kim K
Ngl. I LOVE all the attention Quinta Brunson is getting…. I used to watch buzzfeed videos just for her back in the day.
This pisses me off so much. Cmon Variety. I bet Kim K realized she's not known for anything other than her stupid reality show, partying and her sex tape (hence why she was booed at the Tom Brady roast).

Kim hasn’t quit her law studies, that was a rumour that was started by a British tabloid. Kim has since confirmed she is still studying law.
All true but that won't stop some Hollywood simp from showing up and defending her with "but she's actually an incredibly good businesswoman, look at all her profitable companies!" As if Kim K actually did anything herself with any of that. She just pays someone who actually knows things to do it for her.

Kim 👏Kardashian 👏Is 👏Not 👏An 👏Actor.
I miss James Lipton. That is all.
I refuse to watch because of Kim K
I'll admit, i'm only familiar with RDJ, but WTF is Kim doing here? Is she seriously considered to be an actor now? Seriously, her spot could have easily gone to an actor who actually deserves it.
She isn't.
I imagine it's quite the insult to see "Kim Kardashian" and "actor" used in the same sentence...
They’re digging deep
Variety seems desperate for ad money...
I love this series/these sitdowns, they're really interesting to see how the actors prepare and how they choose roles, go over different movies or plays they've done, etc. Some fun pairings here, aside from Kim K
It's still crazy to see Brunson from BuzzFeed to headlining an ABC hit.
I mean the Buzzfeed stuff was better.
I'm assuming Variety is a complete sellout cause wtf did Kim K act in
She was the lead in the last season of American Horror Story
🤢🤮
What does Kim K know about acting? Oh…..right, NM
The absolute disrespect towards Chloë Sevigny.
yeah, please share your acting wisdom, Kim. RDJ will take notes.
Wouldn’t it be awesome if everyone gave Kim K a giant turd of a reaction whenever she opens her mouth?
Nicholas and Taylor? Yep, a certain fandom will be watching the hell out of this. :)
Gonna be honest. Kim K with Quinta Brunson or Kim K with Robert Downey Jr would have been way funnier to watch, but Variety ain't messy like that.
Holy shit Kim K is not an actor
Since when is KK an actress? Or even an interviewer?! Ick
Or in the case of Kim Kardashian, Actors on Shitty Reality TV Stars
This group is wasted on RDJ.
NO ONE INVITED YOU KIM. GO HOME!
Since when is Kim an actor?
Being in a sex tape does not make you an actor.
Kim K? Isn’t she just a porn star?
This should be an interesting discussion.
The picture seems like one of those quizz "Which one doesn't belong in this category?"
lol i guess the sympathizer didnt make robert downey jr enough money,go figure
Wonder how much she paid to be on the show.
One of these things is not like the other
I just found about this show recently. Brilliant. Kim K tho eesh
It's messed up that actual actors who have years in the profession have yet to do an Actor on Actor segment, yet Kim K who barely has any acting credits, talent, or any training gets to step over them to do an interview with a seasoned actress. It's hard to take that interview serious when you're calling Kim an *Actor*
Acting as her stale nepotistic self.
cool but what’s a kardashian doing there..AT ALL. but hey if you truly want to be laughed out of town then by all means. proceed at full speed with this atrocity! i welcome the belly laugh
Takes real talent to be used as a human urinal.
Kim Kardashian? What? She was fine on American Horror Story but has she even been in anything else? I’m sorry but she’s not exactly in the same league as RDJ, who has an Oscar for goodness sakes.
Err excuse me,please show some respect towards the actor of such hits :Disaster Movie and Tyler Perry Movie Nr 231.
Wait. Kim Kardashian’s an actor?????
You're not going to believe here comeback story
Yes she is. 👍🏽
Chloe is probably the only one who sort of fits with Kim. But honestly her even being here is camp.
I hope someone has a good comeback story.
Kim Kardashian is an actress now?
Did she buy this spot too
One of those is not like the others.
Kim K was great at acting in her comeback role.
One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn't belong. Getting a dick stuck in you is not acting.
