Did BC pretend he didn’t know what TNM was at some point?

“BC also knows TNM exists. Yeah, still haven’t let that go.” – Sorry, what haven’t you let go? I feel like I am forgetting something that happened.


Nope, BC always knew about TNM. He even mentioned it in the interview for Interview Magazine.

It was at Wizard World in 2016, where Tom was pumping up Chris’ work, Ghostbusters, etc. And then the moderator asked him about TNM, and Chris said, seriously, “What’s The Night Manager?” And then tried to play it off like maybe it hadn’t been in Australia yet (it had). Like he truly had no idea that Tom did other stuff. 

It’s a very unequal friendship in that regard. 

The more I live the less I like CH.

A lot of this always comes down to the directors. And what Branagh did – just from my point of view – was he brought the Shakespearean element to the sibling rivalry, where everybody could relate to feeling less than, or shut out, or pushed aside, or not equally loved… and I think that you’ve [to Tom] just done a brilliant job…’ ~ Robert Downey Jr

That’s a nice change from CH and TW going “pfffft Shakespeare’s stoopid, why you take this so serious Tom, what we need is more anus jokes”. I love that RDJ specifically told Tom what a great job he did in the more Shakespearean version of MCU.
