  • His acting in revolutionary road was the stand out performance of the whole film. He totally made it for me. Brilliant.

  • is he related to tarantino he fuckin reminds me of him

  • he has a sexy voice.

  • I love van holden he's so funny! Lol when his baby was crying while he was trying to talk with the whore lady and the look on his face and when he shot the officer in the leg and ran out of the post office lmao and PIMP SLAP!! Lol van holden 2012!!!

  • If they ever film "Blood Meridian", I can definitely see Shannon as The Judge.

  • @ThePilum from what i remember, wasnt the judge tall, fat, and missing hair on his entire face?

  • @brooklynstudio Yup, hairless,about 7' tall and 300 lbs. Obviously finding an actor anywhere near those dimensions with the acting chops to play the Judge is highly improbable. Shannon definitely got the chops. He's also physically imposing enough to represent that aspect of the Judge (which the makeup/special effects folks can enhance). I guess for me, he just projects the combination of intelligence and menace that is the Judge.

  • @ThePilum either waqy I'd love to see a movie adaptation of the film. Who would you want to direct it? Perhaps eastwood?

  • @brooklynstudio Not really sure about a director.The story almost needs an amalgam of an Eastwood, the Coens and Tarantino. 

  • @ThePilum that'd be somethin!

  • Anton Yelchin in 10 years

  • No one can beat Terrence Stamp. He will always be the best Zod.

  • He always plays such unlikable characters - yet.. can't help but love this Guy.. not in a gay way - in a very Manly Homosexual way ;)

  • Shannon would be perfect as the psycho in Dirty Harry should they ever do a remake of that film.

  • One of top 3 actors in the business.

  • Great choice for General Zod!!!

  • @panathatube This man is pure talent when it comes to acting, so intense in everything he does and really portrays every part to the fullest. I really hope they make men of steel just like watchmen, seeing how its the same director and writer behind this. Zod was out of his mind, who better to play that role than Mr Shannon?

  • ZOD

  • Why do superhero flicks keep recycling the same villians..i just don't get it

  • Michael Shannon is to play Zod?

  • Kneel Before Zod!!

  • @bbiz20 yup, that is the only reason i am watching this right now

  • That motherfucker looks like Frankenberry!

  • @Hellzyead hahahahahaha

  • funny guy

    actually interesting, not some phony p.r. b.s.

    rend the veil of hOllywood order

  • Is anyone else in love with the way this man says "yeah"?!?! I don't know what's wrong with me.

  • "FAIR HAIRED?!"

  • He's so handsome

  • great actor

  • Comment removed

  • one of the most underrated actors of all time

  • This guy has been cast as mafia killer Richard Kuklinski. Interesting choice, he doesn't look like him at all or have the same body type but he has the same accent and a similar rhythm of speech.

  • I watched 1:21 to 1:25 like 8 times in a row

  • He's amazing. There's none of this kiss-ass "Hollywood star" interview bullshit with Michael.

  • like a young christopher walken

  • Anyone will be kind enough to interprete what Michael says? My English listening is not that good.

  • I love Michael Shannon.... Bug, Shotgun Stories and Rev. Road were all stellar turns.

  • This guy would make a great JOKER

  • holy shit, yes he would be a great joker!!!!!

  • yeah, he has a good voice and very expressive and great face for the job, i thought of it while i was on the cinema watching revolutionary road, and if you think about it it would be an interesting choice; he's not a superstar and could be a hell of a surprise

  • @MaghoxFr Yeah he seems like he could really play any twisted villain. Would be nice to see him play someone in the new batman movie.

  • this is gonna sound totally weird but... i wanna marry this guy he seems so like off like kinda crazy but its kinda cute lol

    any he was my favorite part of revolutionary road which was an amazing movie and i want to read the book now

  • OMG! I know what you mean hahaha,  He's fantastic!! XD

  • He looks like Leonardo's evil chlone

  • No offense but he seems to be a bit crazy like his characters.

  • dull interview. great actor. great movie.

  • Great actor!

    He was also great in the movie Bug

  • I agree with all your opinions, youtube family ;)

  • If everyone hadn't been so fanatical about Heath Ledger. Michael should have won this Oscar without any doubt. I saw the other movies and all of the support actors did well, but Michael's role DEFINES what a supporting actor does. It was phenomenal.

  • it s that Ledger can't win next year.

    Michael will win one Oscar, sonner or later.

  • down to earth. funny. he's great.

  • "leave alone" ha ha

  • He was extraordinary in revolutionary road..well-deserved oscar nomination

  • I was happy when I've heared about Michael's oscar nomination.

  • i wish he'd won.

  • christopher walken presented his nomination at the oscars, now try and tell me he doesnt remind you of walken himself

  • I actually think he looks a bit like Richard Keel "Jaws" in James Bond. :-)

  • kind of ...the same style both...

  • he is soooo hot.

  • Yes. His stage and film performance in Bug is quite brave. Michael Shannon and Tom Hardy are probably the best actors for the next up and coming generation.

  • @KineticFrenetic Funny that. I just watched Bronson half an hour ago.

  • Congrats on a well-deserved Oscar nomination!!

  • I think Bug is one of the best films i have ever seen and this guy uhas not enough first role

  • i toally agree kwanlifu, his performance in shotgun stories was phenomenal also, even in pearl harbor, and cecil b. demented.

  • awesome that Michael gives credit to others for getting him where he is now...besides a great writer Tracy is a good guy, and so is Michael Shannon

  • Mr. Humility.
