In a recent episode of the talk show, The Graham Norton Show, host Graham Norton had a blast chatting with a star-studded lineup of celebrities. One of the highlights of the show was when Norton mentioned Thor, which led to some hilarious moments.
During the conversation, Norton asked one of the guests about strange encounters with fans. It turns out that people often approach this celebrity and ask for a specific joke. While it may seem odd, the celebrity shared that fans love to test their comedic skills by requesting a joke on the spot.
But the laughter didn’t stop there. The conversation shifted to the Avengers film and the celebrity’s role in it. As expected with superhero movies, there was plenty of action, dieting, and exercise involved in preparing for the role. The celebrity also revealed that the film is the first production from Team Downey and praised the team’s fantastic work.
Norton then added a fun twist to the conversation by asking the celebrity to introduce their new co-star, who happens to have an unusual name. The celebrity amused the audience by jokingly calling out to their fictional co-star, Danny.
The show took a nostalgic turn when Norton displayed some sweet childhood pictures of the celebrity. One particular picture caught everyone’s attention – a young boy wearing a Spider-Man costume. It turns out that this was the celebrity’s first-ever superhero outfit, lovingly kept by their mother.
With the conversation back on track, Norton delved into the celebrity’s role in the Avengers film. The celebrity shared that their character receives an upgraded suit from Tony Stark, played by Robert Downey Jr. The new suit is described as fantastical and impossible in real life, but it certainly looks great on screen.
Away from the set, the celebrity shared a humorous anecdote about filming in New York City. While trying to shoot a scene on Bleecker Street, the paparazzi kept interfering and disrupting the shoot. Amusingly, the celebrity sought refuge in a cafeteria, only to realize that the paparazzi couldn’t follow them inside.
The conversation took a turn to the past when Norton mentioned that the celebrity had originally auditioned for the role of Thor. This tidbit garnered a round of applause from the audience, but the celebrity jokingly mentioned that it was probably because of their hair that they didn’t get the part.
In a surprising twist, Norton teased the celebrity about being voted the sexiest man alive. The celebrity hilariously revealed that they finally reached an age where they don’t care about such titles. However, the announcement made them realize how unsexy they actually think they are.
With the Avengers cast all present, Norton couldn’t resist bringing up a funny incident involving Jeremy Renner and a fleeing woman. Apparently, during the filming of Avengers: Age of Ultron, Renner scared a woman who mistook him for The Hulk. The celebrity shared a similar experience, noting that their kids weren’t initially impressed with their superhero parent.
Another delightful moment was when one of the guests, who portrays The Incredible Hulk, shared that their children now find it ordinary to have the green giant as their dad. Earlier on, it was quite an awe-inspiring experience for them.
The conversation briefly touched on the confusion that fans might face with the release of both Avengers: Infinity War and Deadpool 2, in which the celebrity also appears. With the films hitting theaters just three weeks apart, fans may have to keep track of the timelines and multiple roles of the celebrity.
Throughout the episode, Norton and the guests shared plenty of lighthearted banter and humorous anecdotes. The talk show provided a lively and entertaining platform for these beloved celebrities to showcase their wit and charm.
Stay tuned for more star-studded episodes of The Graham Norton Show, one talk show that always delivers laughter and entertainment.
