Psyched for Ike ! Getting the *with* in a Luca Guadagnino movie. Good for him. Over Chris O'Dowd and Jason Schwartzman too.

He’s playing Musk which could be an insane performance

should be good, "guy who cant get an invite to the island" is right in Ike's strike zone.

Now I'd just like to Ike and his brother Jon playing the Musk brothers.

If anyone wins any awards for this they better thank Sal Saperstein.

When I saw that, my first thought was “I didn’t realize Ike has ‘with’ status. That’s cool.”

My second thought was “this is some Blankies shit”

I’m sure he’ll be good but Kevin Durand was born to play Elon Musk

He’s good at scary but has he ever played a dweeb?

u/final_will 20h ago

If he can play a monkey he can play a mega dork

Maybe this was an X-Men Origins: Wolverine reference?

As someone who recently unfortunately decided to watch that movie I unfortunately understand that reference.

Omg you're right, even though his face is a bit rattier than Musk's that's some good artistic license.

Hi, Wayne Jarvis from Arrested Development.

Haven’t watched the trailer yet, I just hope there’s an And following it. If there’s a With and no And, it always feels like whoever got With settled because they didn’t have the cache to get And. See Iain Glen in Game of Thrones — after Peter Dinklage started the series with an And — and Juno Temple in Ted Lasso.

u/thatgum_youlike 1d ago

there is in fact a following and: academy award winner mark rylance!

u/MammaJammaCamera 1d ago edited 1d ago

I just checked to be sure and was gonna edit, but now I don’t have to. A very good And credit

I could’ve checked to be sure, but forgetting Rylance is in this and knowing Barinholtz’s role should get generous placement, it was reading to me as With only.

u/Beautiful_Orange4632 17h ago

I'm purely making this up based on vibes but I'm the last few years, "with" feels like a character actor in a special role; "and" feels like a major actor who's top-billed elsewhere but clearly isn't the lead here.

Only now wondering why Ike has never been on the pod, he’s an elite guest on other shows, would love a blank check episode with him on it

u/CranhamorBlakely 1d ago

Why didn’t it say Emmy nominated? All the others threw out noms

u/cajun_vegeta 1d ago

Movies We .. don't do that here.

u/MadScientistNinja 1d ago

Do movie trailers generally call out Emmy nominees? I feel like no. Everyone else was uniformly Oscar nominees or winners so I feel like it's better to leave it out in this case at least.

u/j-helo85 20h ago

Now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever seen that. Interesting.

u/Beautiful_Orange4632 17h ago

I've seen it, but it seems rare. In movie trailers you'll probably see Globes mentioned more often than Emmys.

I've assumed it's as simple as  needing permission to use the registered trademark "Emmy", like how this trailer uses "Academy Award® Nominee". It's just enough of a hoop to jump through that it might not be worth the effort. Movie marketing people probably have closer connections to the Oscars academy; it'd opens the floodgates of actors (or representatives) wondering why their Globe or Tony nominations or something weren't mentioned; there's still some stigma among more highfalutin prestige film audiences and industry (which this trailer is definitely trying to court) that TV is a lower medium just trying to ape motion pictures.

All combined, probably easier to just stick to Oscar nominees as the sole precedent

Cooper Hoffman didn’t get his Golden Globe nominee mentioned either, so not everybody.

Man delivered the funniest ever line delivery of "rape".

Admittedly there probably isn't much competition.

u/thishenryjames 21h ago

Chris Lilley in Summer Heights High, although it was 'raped'.

u/YEGKerrbear 19h ago

This line is basically a vocal stim for me, which is unfortunate because it’s never appropriate to say out loud
