    He could appear as a villain in a future film, that’d be cool

    I love watching the comedic gears of Conan’s mind work in the moment, as he is riffing on the “how would you play Bond differently?” question 🤣

    He would’ve been a great Bond. Still could be tbh, they are in the process of picking the new guy

    A Welsh Bond would be awesome. I think Matthew would do pretty well as a Welsh Doctor Who.

    What would you do different for Bond? Think Marty Feldman in Young Frankenstein. Thats it. Igor with Terrets syndrome.

    It’s a shame Perry Mason was cancelled. Such a great show. HBO really fumbled that one!

    I didn’t realise how good of an actor Matthew Rhys was until I saw him on this podcast. He’s so different from his role in The Americans than he is in real life

    It’s always jarring seeing him speak his native accent when he’s only played Americans.
