John Glover (Smallville, Tony Award Winner) joins us in studio for an open and honest conversation about aging in this industry while wanting to stay busy amidst all the craziness that has surrounded us over the past few years. John talks more about his desire to act until the day he dies and how we share similarities of starting to act by chasing peer approval at a young age. We also talk about his opinion on the writing for Lionel Luthor during Smallville, who he regrets ‘chickening out on’ working with in his career, and the praise he receives by bringing complexity to the villains he plays.

this man is 79 , looks allmost exactly like he did on the show

@CooperBayBay 7 месяцев назад

He doesn't look any older than he did in Gremlins 2. Hairs a little more gray but that's it

He's 79????? Holy crap, that's some damn good genes.

@scottmcclary594 7 месяцев назад

that's because he was in his mid 60s in the final season of smallville, physically that's not much different if you take care of yourself!

Lionel was written so wonderfully and Glover played him masterfully. The idea that Superman's main nemesis would have a parent who shaped him was such an obvious yet genius take on the character. It added so much depth to the series.

@pepperpeterpiperpickled9805 7 месяцев назад

I'd say Lex became the man he became because of the choices he made. There were countless times when Lionel tried to talk Lex out of being a cold businessman like himself, but Lex, when at the crossroads, would always choose evil.

@duberdurm 7 месяцев назад

@@pepperpeterpiperpickled9805 By the time Lionel tried to be a good father, he had already spent years teaching Lex to be evil (IIRC). The damage was done.

@pepperpeterpiperpickled9805 7 месяцев назад

@@duberdurm yeah but even the times Lex went against his Father to 'do the right thing' he always ended up taking the non-righteous path

@deomartinez77 7 месяцев назад

Lionel Luthor is easily one of the greatest characters ever added to the Superman mythos. And one of the all time best villains I have ever seen period.

“We were good together. We were really good together.” That made me smile so much.

John played Lionel so incredibly well on Smallville. His and Michael playing Lex and their dynamic was always so entertaining to watch. Particularly the scene where Lex pushes Lionel out of Luthorcorps building. That whole speech he gives Lex about not giving in to the dark power and there being no redemption for him if he did it. It made Lex lose all his humanity to say he was raised in Lionel’s shadow and now he’s gonna die in his. And that look Lionel gave him to me looked not only like Lionel was at peace but almost like he was proud as a Luthor, Lex finally stepped up and became who Lionel was in the beginning. So the transformation for Lex was complete from fighting who he was to embracing fully being a Luthor.

@scetchmonkey007 7 месяцев назад

John Glover is the reason why Micheal is the best Lex Luthor, he gave lex the villain origin story

@KeatrithAmakiir 7 месяцев назад

So true!

I’ve commented elsewhere that as well written as all of the characters were, the brilliant casting choices and chemistry between the leading characters is what seals the deal.

@Axxman300 7 месяцев назад

What I loved about Lionel and Lex was you guys were so compelling on screen they almost didn't need Clark Kent. In fact I would have watched a "The Luthors" any day. Just a cool character profile and arc of what drove an epic comic book villain down that path. And John Glover remains underutilized as an actor. Great interview.

@kvoltti 7 месяцев назад

It is a testament to his skill as an actor that he was so thoughtful and generous with Michael

@geraldking4080 7 месяцев назад

The Luthor crocodile smile was unnerving. You could never be surel what it meant.

@morganflattop9651 7 месяцев назад

Lionels death was one of the best scenes on Smallville. The look on Lionels face as he was falling was saying, " Finally, the son I always wanted".

@righteousfroce1254 4 месяца назад

I wish Clark and Lex became friends again or at least got closer at the end of the episode but the opposite happened.

@youtube_moderator Месяц назад

I like how they acknowledge the shortcomings of the show, usually things out of their control like lackluster writing, budgetary limitations, character development mistakes, but Lex and Lionel's rivalry was brilliantly done. Kudos to Glover and Rosenbaum

@lindamawdsley6130 7 месяцев назад

Everyone has layers, they make us unique and interesting and John likes to delve into his as often as he can, it makes him feel alive and he conveys that feeling to us through his acting🤩

@Rab_Daddy 7 месяцев назад

I love this man and by far my favorite character in Smallville. One of the few shows where the casting was solid. Had a huge crush on Ali Mack however we know how that ended unfortunately. Michael’s Lex is also legendary. Tom is a top 3 Clark Kent - thanks for signing my picture this year! Love to meet John Glover and Michael

@DrmCom2003 7 месяцев назад

Lionel was my favorite character on the show. I thought John's portrayal of him was nothing short of brilliant. I was one of the few people to not see Lionel as a villain, but as more of a survivor. He grew up in a terrible town. His father was a criminal and a murderer. His mother was an alcoholic. He basically was a kid that had no future. Yes he did bad things such as plan his parents death and lied about his origins but it felt almost justifiable to give himself a better life as he would have never had it as long as his parents were alive. Suffice to say I was in a glass case of emotion when Lionel died.

@defaultusername123 7 месяцев назад

Just came here to say John Glover rocks. His acting is perhaps better than ever, as well (great recently in FTWD). A rare breed of performer that can accomplish that.

@neonswift 7 месяцев назад

Damn straight they were good together. Lionel Luthor is the best (bad) father figure in any fiction I can think of, you guys nailed that relationship and made it something shakespearean.

@NeoTechni 7 месяцев назад

John was such a good bad-father that he made me empathize for the villain of Shazam as I just pictured him as Lionel again. Though Lionel wouldn't have lowered himself to using profanity like that, it was beneath him

@mdr14325 7 месяцев назад

And too add I just finished season 7 I agree about how Lionel looked after he fell out the window Like he was free from it all Again the writers of this series was amazing ❤❤❤❤

@plasticcargo 7 месяцев назад

****SPOILER**** I started rewatching Smallville funnily enough, and when Lionel loses his sight, which makes Lex turn his back on him multiple times and even for a few seconds, let his father die. This was a powerful moment for me, knowing that even though Lex hated his father for his own reasons, he is still his father and he still loved him enough to save him from the debris. Glad to see you both talking about it again!

@sinnizster5038 7 месяцев назад

@chaburchak 5 месяцев назад

I always wanted to see John Glover in a remake of the Gene Roddenberry TV movie Spectre. Robert Culp played a sort of Sherlock Holmes of the supernatural world, with Gig Young as his Watson. Culp was good in it, but that sort of genius-type character in that particular milieu would've fit Glover to a tee (plus I always like to see actors known for their villain roles get to play the good guy for a chance...)

@Dan_Campbell 7 месяцев назад

All for naught, because Michael left the show and - like Natalie Dormer on Elementary - the remaining seasons were tainted by false hopes that the actor would return. It's not true for all of the fans, but it was true for me and many fans were disappointed. I'm sorry, but the main character was fine, but the most interesting element was Lex.
