What celebrity do I get mistaken for?

Daisy Edgar-Jones sometimes.

No. Oh, okay.

No she gets mistaken for me.

[Paul] Yes. Poor Daisy.

[fun upbeat music]

Hello, I'm Paul Mescal.

I'm here with my friends from the cast of Gladiator II,

and we are going to play a game

about how well we know each other for Vanity Fair.

Did they prompt you?

Or did you just make that up on the fly?

Okay. Question: What's my least favorite day of the week?

Tuesday.

Oh, you're writing it down? Yeah.

You just wrote Tuesday.

[cast members laughing] Yeah.

I actually, when you said Tuesday

Yeah, he said Tuesday.

I was like... [cast members laughing]

[Joseph] Tuesday's fine.

I'm gonna give everybody a point for that.

I think I deserve a point-

[Fred] I'll say Tuesday. [chimes tinkling]

for being observant.

What was the name of my character

in Normal People?

[Joseph] Connell. Callum.

[Joseph] No, you're out. Connell.

You're out.

Connell. Connell.

Connell, Connell. What's your answer?

Connor?

Incorrect. Two points.

[Connie] You got wrong- Hmm.

[chimes tinkling]

Callum's a different character.

So the answer is Connell.

He only plays characters

with the letter C in the name.

Yeah [laughs], famously.

What's number one on my bucket list?

And don't look at my answer.

[marker scraping]

No peeking. [Pedro laughs]

You're not gonna be able to see that.

Yep.

Okay, that was very long.

[Paul] Yes Joseph.

Is it to see the Great Wall of China?

No, but it's in that-

It's close, isn't it?

family of thought.

It's to go and see something.

Okay. Rajasthan. [cast members laughing]

Go to Rajasthan,

for a tour.

Travel to South America.

I've never been to South America.

I'm from South America.

I get three points.

[cast members laughing]

I was born in South America.

17 points for Pedro.

I think Joseph is the only person

[chimes tinkling] who gets a point there,

because everybody just jumped on the bandwagon.

He said to visit the Great Wall of China,

Yeah, but-

Which is nowhere near South America.

[Connie] Think about- It really is not.

Think about bucket list,

and he came up with travel to bit.

And by the way, where in South America?

[Joseph] Don't fight, don't fight.

I want, any, I want to do a big tour of everywhere.

'Cause it's very different.

I know it's very different.

When's my birthday?

February. February.

The seventh.

The fourth. Ninth.

[Pedro] [Pedro makes groaning sound] Eighth

Second. Point to Joseph.

[chimes tinkling]

Oh my God, you guys are good.

That's all my questions.

It's Jose Pedro Balmaceda Pascal.

[buzzer sounds]

Nobody gets points.

Jose Pedro Balmaceda Pascal.

I said Jose, I said Jose.

You said Jose, but then you put it-

You did say Jose.

But then you put it behind Pedro

which eliminate- which disqualified you.

That's absolute bullshit.

The question is, who is my favorite actor?

[cast members laugh]

It's me.

That you're my favorite actor?

Yeah. You said that to me once.

I think it's going to be-

Do you remember?

I said you were-

I said I thought you were special.

Oh.

And special can mean a lot of things. [laughs]

[Paul] Who's your favorite actor?

I think we just have to shoot from the hip here guys.

The answer on the card is wait-

You're a waiter. Waiter.

Okay, but Joe-

[Joseph] Waiter and a dancer.

Fred gets it, Fred gets it again.

Why does he get it again?

Because I was saying the word.

It doesn't say dancer on the card.

[Pedro] [funky music] Here's the pen.

Thank you darling.
