“Be the person you needed when you were younger” Edvin Rydings. Wow. Edvin is such an incredible actor; charismatic/fun, and apparently an amazingly thoughtful human being. Luv him. 💜 Can’t wait to follow his career. Great interview!
At one level, this interview can show us - since they speak a lot about self-awareness - how NOT to be an interviewer. There is an obvious and large difference between critical appraisal and GUSHING. Josh gushes his way through most of this interview. Embarrassing. That Edvin Ryding was articulate and thoughtful despite the gushing says much. And the contrast between interviewer and interviewee is precisely the distinction - for the most part - between gushing and thinking. On MENTAL HEALTH: in Season 2 the last interaction between Wilhelm and the counselor is crucial of course. But Wilhelm makes the distinction: "There was the real Erik and the Prince Erik". "And "How hard can it be...?" Etc. The issue of "the double life", of lying and integrity, matters. Of course. BUT, why oh why can viewers not make a distinction between Wilhelm and Edvin Ryding? Or Simon and Omar Rutburg? Failing to do so issues in these often inane and cringe-making "questions" these actors are "subjected to." Oi. Life imitating art. Of course it's an ensemble performance. But season 2 really is carried by Wilhelm congratulations to Edvin on such a fine performance. PS: compare - if u dare - Netflix's Elite with Young Royals. Elite is, at best, soft porn now: utterly mindless. A comparison shows the,quality of Young Royals. Peace. :-)
This actor is wise beyond his years. I am a therapist and I was super impressed with his reflections and views. What an inspirational individual. It totally comes out the work he does. A truly phenomenal actor.
Waiting for Edvin to blow up into the international film/tv scene in a couple of years. My God is he a talented, wise, charismatic boy. I hope nothing and no one takes away his shine. He is the next Timotheè Chalamet in the making.
honestly i feel like that's where we're going pretty soon bc you can even tell he's practiced his "english" dialect in the last year so i feel like he'll be going out for ~hollywood~ roles soon (like can we get him an a24 feature please!!!)
@@k8ieedits he said in an interview that he went to London for a few auditions and there might be some USA/UK project in the future. With that acting skill and resume, I can't imagine him not succeeding in everything he does.
I want to hear more from this wise and sincere young man. I am 59 and I could listen to his heart and things he is learning all day. He is really amazing.
Edvin is utterly brilliant in so many ways. He is so obviously multi-faceted and multi-talented. I think the trait that carries him is the way in which he cares about the world. One cannot contain so many qualities and not contain the same amount of love.
I’ve never seen such a young person be this well spoken. He always says exactly what needs to be said with such beauty and intelligence. You can tell he radiates kindness and cares about everyone he interacts with and is just so humble. All that aside, he is also one of the BEST actors I have ever seen on screen. I become more in awe realizing how long he has been acting for, and how much longer he has left to grow as a person. Like he’s only 19 but has so much maturity for his age. Pure talent. It also always shocked me how well people speak English as their second language. I could go on forever but to conclude, thank you for this
this was such a good interview!!! i could listen to edvin talking for hours, his dedication and love for wilhelm are so clear whenever he talks about the show, it’s truly amazing to see how insightful he is 💗 and that hairstyle ranking question was the cherry on top 😅
Edvin's command of the English language is very impressive for a Swedish 19 year old, so much so that he could easily teach English at any school in Sweden, or anywhere else in fact!
5:43 I love the friendship between Wilhelm and Felice. When she asks Wille if he's okay after seeing Simon and he tells her honestly, "Well, I don't have a choice. I have to be okay."
there's no way not fall in love with him, i spent the entire video smiling :') there aren't enough words to describe how incredible he is, he simply radiates kindness, intelligence, sense of humor, and cares so much about his characters giving them a such beautiful meaning, i love him sm
ME TOO! If you want to hear more from Edvin check out the full interview on my podcast Reign, you can listen here: hyperurl.co/i4yxt0 and let me know what you think - hope you enjoy it! Josh
OMG! Super funny and intelligent . He should be a script writer or director. He actually made a lot of proposals and improvised scenes. Loved the part with the birthday presents, the way he reprimanded his parents! As parents we can also learn from this, how our kids needs us in so many ways. I love his take on mental health issues. You have to bring him back please?
Edvin is AMAZING. I'm older and have experienced a lot. Watching him in season 1 was the same way I felt seeing Tom Holland in The Impossible or Leonardo DiCaprio in This Boy's Life. He's going to have an incredible career. The best is yet to come.
He’s the type of friend with who you can talk about everything for hours and never get tired ! He is only 19 and have the life in front if him. Wish him the best of the best of the best. Always be happy Edvin, you are a life changer ❤️
Wise beyond his years. It's truly a pleasure to see someone embrace what they have learnt alongside the trials they have suffered and use it to try to change and affect change in others. As well as phrase it more eloquently than most of us could dream to do. Thank you Edvin and thank you Josh.
Edvin Ryding is wise beyond his years. Thank you for sharing this interview. So powerful and moving. The show has touched me so deeply. It was something I needed when I was younger, but it didn’t exist then.
How old is he again? When i was his age, i really had a hard time putting words together to make a full sentence and here he is, talking beautifully about coming of age, sexuality and wisdom. What a boy
He is truly not a light actor.. every scene or his approach to acting is so intricate with details and so much thought… nice interview and wow his answers were so deep ans heavy and at the same chill type as well.. he is indeed a great actor and looking forward for more performances from him ❤
He is so wise! f you want to hear more from Edvin- and there's a Omar episode too - make sure you check out the full interview on my podcast Reign here: hyperurl.co/i4yxt0 hope you enjoy!
I adore him. Can’t believe 19 yrs old boy can that be thoughtful, mature and wisdom. Love Edvin. He is just amazing. Handsome too. BTW, i love him with long hair most :)
There are not many 19 year old actors who have this kind of wisdom. Edvin Seend to be beautiful both outside and inside. My compliments to the interviewer - he could strike a chord with a guest like Oprah Winfrey does but in his own unique way.
I would say Edvin is the most beautiful discovery in these two past years . An outstanding actor and a terrific guy as well: handsome, cute, smart, funny, caring.... what a gem ! Can't way to follow his future bright career !
I am so SO grateful for this wonderful interview as it feels like forever since we've binged YR season 2, and it's kind of the first time we get the PHENOMENAL Edvin Ryding to extensively reflect on the show. Oh how I was craving for that! Edvin is both a gifted actor and amiable person, an old soul, somehow. He combines psychological depth with a lightness of being which makes him very approachable and relatable. Thank you for this beautiful interview & your insightful questions 💕 It just made my day 💓💓💓And YES, he already IS the person many people need as their solid rock.
@@darktwistedlady Very well said. As he stated, he ocassionally was left to his own devices at a young age in the industry which made him scrutinize human behavior. He observed & assessed the way people treated him and others, and that led him to come up with some strong values concerning friendship, collaboration and respect. He radiates joy whenever you see him interact with others which is a trademark of emotionally balanced people. HIs strong personality will enable him to be succesfull in the industry and, at the same time, live a happy, balanced private life. My best wishes are with him, as I really admire Edvin as the great person he is. -- Oopsie, sorry for rambling, got a bit carried away here 😄
@@ladys45 He will get an 'Oski" one day, I am sure. His charisma is heartwarming, because when he laughs, it comes from the heart. And... he cares. He cares about those around him: friends, family, fans... That's what I love most about people. If they care. 💖💓💖
@@diemarieell Love your rambling! He has so many great messages, like "be the person you needed when you were younger"! I sceolled through his insta once, and read an incredible post about the importance of emotions, the connections between toxic masculinity and the high suicide rated for men, and he lamented over how boys & men get so many messages about not crying, being "tough" etc, worrying about his litttle brother losing his rich natural emotions from thw social pressure of toxic masculinity. He wrote it when he was 15. F i f t e e n!
this is one of the best interviews ive ever watched in my entire life. the questions were really really interesting, the whole conversation felt very natural and edvin really put his heart in every answer. i just got into young royals but i already admire him a lot. great actor and great person. congrats on the video both of you!!
The bravery that Edvin displays in his vulnerability to his private life, the continuity of his own personality with the roles he enacts is absolute credit to his integrity. His is a super intelligent, introspective, emotionally sensitive, such a gifted and talented guy who is totally at ease in his skin. Dealing with his 'coming out' was so emotionally precious and inspiring there is a transcendental purity that invites you to love him, just feel love for this terrific guy. If he and Simon made it, more credit. Mostly Edvin's integrity makes the splash: surely being in his position to enact, grow and continually mature in his subsequent roles, is a gift he really appreciates. His modesty is legend, absolute babe-boned exposure to his most sensitive pockets of secrets, demonstrates what it means to mature without arrogance. If he and Simon area item, go for it: if not where on earth will he find a mate to meet his emotional needs with the strength to love him as the differentiated angel that he is. Angels are blond with mullets.
I love how edvin gave such a powerful and deeply inspirational answer at the end and then said, "great question. Wow. That's beautiful." BOYYYYY. YOUR ANSWER WAS BEAUTIFUL. Don't get it twisted.
this whole interview is just wholesome and beautiful! love how edvin always manage to articulate the role he played perfectly, which helped me understand him (wilhelm) more. and it really is hard to rank his hair, cause they're all gorgeous. but nice choice with the number 1, cause i love that too 💓 also extremely touched with his words about being a person we needed when we were younger, i'm trying my best doing it too. god i just love edvin, he really is currently my favorite actor (i rarely have this tbh) and my comfort person 🥺 great interview, looking forward to omar's!!! now, time to rewatch young royals and wait for the renewal 💜
Wow, what a wonderful young man! I only discovered Young Royals last week! (March 2024) & I was so in love with the show that I watched all 3 Seasons over a period of 36 hours. What an incredible actor & so deep-thinking in real life. As an English person I am also totally impressed with his command of the English language... He speaks better English than many English & American people his age! I also loved his comment about becoming the person that you needed when you were a child. Great interview 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Oh my god?? I noticed the parallels between Kendall and Wilhelm this season, but I thought I was just being silly lol. Both miserable the whole second season and then coming on top by switching up their speech and standing up to their predecessor! Incredible acting from both Jeremy Strong and Edvin.
Edvin has gotten so confident in his english. it has improved so much since his first interviews in english.....his humor is shining so bright..........it won't be long until he's being cast for english and american movies and tv. wonderful interview.......thank both of you,
Edvin is a amazing person and a ridiculously amazing at his job. I will forever be a young royals fan and cant wait to see where Edvin goes in life because I know by a big feeling he going to go far in life and I love him for his kindness he shows everyone❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😊😊😊
I love how casual this interview is, I’ve seen so many Young Royals interviews but it’s so refreshing seeing Edvin smile and laugh and answer questions that aren’t just about the make-out scenes
edvin is sooo entertaining, like how is this kid so effortlessly funny? hope he gets opportunities to showcase that side of him even more in the future
15:25 "be the person you needed when you were younger" Edvin you grew up too fast.🥺 I'm always overwhelmed by his maturity, and how brilliant and smart he is. I love him and Omar so much.
i am so grateful that we are able to see this boy playing wille he is so smart i could listen to him talking about his career and young royals for hours! and he is always so sweet i just want to give him a hug 💜
Edvin was so amazing to talk to! If you want to hear more from Edvin- and there's a Ormar episode too - make sure you check out the full interviews on my podcast Reign here: hyperurl.co/i4yxt0 hope you enjoy!
I am 100% sure: Edvin is an amazing talented actor who will have a great future. Plus: He is intelligent and a beautiful personality. The way he looks at Simon is just soooo great and so real that it makes young royals such a great series. Love from Germany
Oh Josh, your interviews are already always a level above all others, and when you meet a guest with such intelligence, humor, sensitivity and natural talent as Edvin Ryder, they become something absolutely splendid to listen to. Beautiful conversation, deep and brilliant questions and answers, you were both great
i would LOVE an interview with both Edvin and Kit Connor. they both have similar stories, are so well spoken and mature, and even their character are very similar. i feel like they would be great mates
Edvin is such a great actor and a beautiful human. I'm so thankful for YR for making me discover this gem. I can't wait to follow his future. Thanks for this interview, I could listen to him during hours. Love him so much.
He's truly incredible. We are 10 years apart but I feel like he's much more mature than me haha. He's such a beautiful person, inside and out. I would love to have him as my friend, truly. Thank you for this interview❤️ Sending love to everyone 🥰
What a sweet and wise person he is and btw I can't unsee David Bowie when i look at him wearing the mullet and those clothes. His wolfie smile is 100% David Bowie.
he's so young and so wise. such a beautiful soul. i love watching his interviews and hearing him speak about his perspective on different topics, but it's really nice that you touched on mental health too cause wilhelm's storyline with anxiety this season was very important to me. i really hope YR gets a season 3.
Edvin has such a mature mind, he is so down to earth and you can tell how truly kind he must be in person, it is always great to listen to him talking. Such a precious soul. Thank you for this interview.
damn, i could listen him talking all day. h'es so smart, charismatic, beautiful and charming. and at such a young age! Im ready for him to take over hollywood, even if hes too good for them
I don't think I've ever cried while watching an interview for anything other than laughing, but here I am, all because of Edvin's beautiful words 💜 Thank You for this amazing interview
