Jared Harris

Haven't seen him in much. He was suitably creepy on Fringe, and is very good on The Expanse. Based on those two roles I can't tell if he has much range, but he's good at what he does.

I love, love, love him! The Terror made me his fan for life. His performance was shattering.

He seems like a down to earth, good humored gent in real life.

Him and Stellan Skasgaard are masterful in Chernobyl.

He was super in Mad Men and did my favorite depiction of Andy Warhol (and certainly looked more like him than any other actor who’s played Warhol).

‘Fuck the cunt of Russia.’ He was hilarious in Happiness.

one of the worse characters on mad men.

very mis cast

And I how could I forget the strong impression he made in season 1 of The Crown. I kept wishing they could go back and remake The King's Speech with Jared instead of Colin Firth.

He was excellent in the miniseries The Terror

Little known fact: Jared Harris played Henry VIII in the first screen adaptation of 'The Other Boleyn Girl' on BBC. The production was awful, but I felt that he made one of the more convincing (and attractive) Henrys I've seen (and I've seen a LOT.)

Hot man.

[quote] one of the worse characters on mad men.

Um....no? That's one of the dumbest things I've ever read.

[quote] Hot man.

Yes! In a weird sort of way.....yes.

He's an excellent actor. So good, that it's hard to evaluate his work as sometimes you don't even notice that he's the actor you are watching. He just disappears into a character.

That stated, these days I just can't cozy up to anyone named "Jared."

Excellent in The Terror. He made Crozier drying out so absolutely touching. Like R2 said, it made me a fan for life.

Loved him in Mad Men and The Crown. There’s something very elegant about him.

I just noticed that he brought Adam Nagaitis along with him from The Terror to Chernobyl. Both are hot!

Why is the boy with the hot ass getting into bed with the fish. What is wrong with these people?????

Jared has a nice little bum on him there!

He was great in DUMMY.

He's in Dummy? Fuck, no one talks about that movie. I remember watching it when I was young and slightly obsessed with Adrian Brody. Haven't seen it in over a decade. I remember Milla Jovovich being really good in it.

His father is Richard Harris, right?

Bad complexion. Smegma dick. Not hot.

R20 yes.

He inherited some of Richard's looks and acting talent. Jared grew up in England, but graduated from Duke.

Richard as King Arthur:

I love Dummy, but I actually thought he gave the worst performance in the film. He's very mannered. Very stagey. And very unattractive. Maybe he'd be good as The Elephant Man in a very large theatre. His dad was a good actor.

According to IMDB Jared's nickname is Hot Buns!

Also married twice and childless. On DL that automatically makes him gay.

[quote] On DL that automatically makes him gay.

But, we do not want him to be gay. Blech.

Well, if he doesn't want to be simply known as his father's son, I have granted his wish.

Loved him on Mad Men. I've seen him and liked him in lots of things over the years. Saw that old, terrible "Other Boleyn Girl" in which he was, as described, an excellent Henry (and that production was still better than the Johansen/Black Swan bad accent, wooden acting, dull-off) and until this minute I had no idea that he was Richard Harris' son. His father had a touch of magic and Jared's no slouch. Good eyes.

[quote]Also married twice and childless. On DL that automatically makes him gay.

Verificatia of Asian girlfriend?

[quote] Also married twice and childless. On DL that automatically makes him gay.

Or a drunk.

Wife, not girlfriend R29

Wonderful actor and still sexy.

I didn't realize that was him as "Vlad" in Happiness. Love him.

[quote]Adam Nagaitis is a woman, r15?

He’s been consistently great in pretty much everything I’ve seen. Mad Men, Crown, Chernobyl. The one thing I think he’s sort of off the reservation on is The Expanse. His accent is cuhrazy.

I had no idea he was Richard Harris's son. And that woman in his Instagram photo is way too hot for him; I hope he appreciates that fact.

Perhaps, r36, she appreciates him beyond the shallowness that typifies someone like you.

With Dad

Maybe, R37. Or maybe she just likes money.

He was great as Captain Mike in Benjamin Buttons.

His character in Mad Men was SO pathetic (he played it so well), that it was hard to find him likable. But, he did an amazing job.

Fantastic actor. I like him miles better than his screamy overacting drunk father, who, I will admit was a fantastic Dumbledore.

,,,,

Have always liked him. Great voice. I thought i was the only person to have seen dummy which i thought was an adorable movie.

bump

He's sexy.

He;s amazing in 'Chernobyl', but he's amazing in everything he does, even as the Russian guy in 'Happiness'.

The the fans who haven't watched 'The Terror' yet -- it's now on Hulu.

My mum didn't like him in 'The Crown' because she said he wasn't handsome enough. I've tried to convince her of how great he is, but she is permanently let down now.

He’s not hot but he’s a good actor.

R48 Please side-eye your mum for me. As if George VI was such a stunner.

He is spectacular in the 2nd Sherlock Holmes movie, Game of Shadows. His scenes with Robert Downy Jr are perfection.

Jared is the better actor but I prefer his brother Jamie (Turn, Kingdom) because he plays stock baddies well.

Only know him from “Mad Men”, where he made everyone else look like an amateur. No idea that Richard Harris was his father!

He’s a terrific actor, but I find his looks repulsive.

He's jolie laide.

He's such a down to earth nice guy. I did background/extra work on Pompeii filmed in Toronto and he was the only main cast member who's sit down with the extras and have lunch /dinner...he didn't care about hierarchy. I will never forget that....he was one cool dude

I'm surprised and didn't know Richard Harris was his father. Wow. RH was a fantastic actor, I remember him Camelot and A Man called Horse. He was an eloquent talented actor and ran in the same crowd as Richard Burton, Peter O'Toole -- and those were great actors. Now I see where Harris gets his talent.

I hope they finally give Harris an award like the Emmy. He's gone unnoticed for so long because he disappears into his characters. He may not be the most handsome guy but he's talented and consistently gives excellent performances.

Oooh, R55, what other stories can you tell us from that set? I totally forgot Jared was in that movie. Now I understand why Kit Harington owes him money for drinks.

Only saw him as Andy Warhol, a surprisingly memorable film

He played future Will Robinson in Lost in Space (1998) and looked like one of the geico cavemen.

Be still my heart, him in that picture at r38 is adorable

I didn't realize at first that was him playing the ship captain with Brad Pitt in Benjamin Buttons, he does have range

I guess I am jaded after seeing so many cliffhangers and things that are supposed to shock that not much does. But I literally gasped when his father beat him with his cane on Mad Men.

No spoilers please but how scary is The Terror? I like suspense but I don't want to watch anything too terribly frightening because I like to watch stuff before bed.

R62. It's not scary like a horror movie with jump scares and imagery that will give you nightmares afterward. It's more a sense of growing dread and desperation that will induce anxiety attacks while you watch it.

R35, thank you. I just binged all three seasons of The Expanse and some of the accents drove me nuts. Whats with the "belters" all speaking english like Asian (and to be more specific, Chinese) ESL students?

He’s a terrific and underrated actor.

R64, the idea is that humans have been in the belt long enough for their language to diverge and a pidgin to evolve.

ISTR reading that the show consulted with a linguist to make Belter a believable pidgin/creole. Apparently the writers of the books hadn't put that much thought into it.

R64, it's not apparent from the series but in the books Martians are east Asians who speak with a drawl.

Thanks but that doesn't explain why Gunnie (sp?), a Martian, speaks with an Aussie accent.

Because the TV series doesn't follow the books to a T and Gunnie is a Samoan IRL and probably can't do accents.

It's a shonde that he never won the Emmy for Layne Price on Mad Men.

I was angry he didn't win an Emmy for The Terror. I'm hoping he finally gets it for Chernobyl.

r63 thanks for the explanation. I guess if I made it through Chernobyl and The Handmaid's Tale type of dread I will be okay. I just am the type who will never watch the Saw movies, no interest in that kind of horror.

I looked at his Instagram and he looks passionate with his wife and like kind of a cool guy. My crush for him has grown.

R71, if the Emmys do not nominate him and Stellan Skarsgard for Chernobyl, it would be a crime.

It was already a crime that he wasn't nominated (and the winner) for The Terror. I hope by now they realize their error and nominate for Chernobyl by way of apology.

R75 100% agree!

I want R55 to come back with some stories

I liked him on Mad Men punching that little bitch Pete Campbell

I was surprised at how much The Terror was ignored. I was expecting Emmy nods for soundtrack or costuming at least, but it got nothing. Three or four of the actors probably deserved a nomination as well. They didn't get any major award noms, not even a SAG.

Chernobyl will get Limited Series Emmy nom for sure. Harris absolutely deserves leading actor as well.

I'd like to see Stellan and Emily get supporting nominations, but who knows.

I was there with you, R79. Tobias Menzies also deserved a win. He and Jared's scene on their trek back from the cairn broke my heart. It was so beautifully done.

I also loved seeing Layne Price punching out Peter Campbell in that glorious episode. What a great season that was. Another vote here for his Andy Warhol being the best version, and I also really liked him in Sylvia.

I finished Chernobyl last night. Really do hope the Emmys reward Jared, Emily and Stellan. All three of them were fantastic.

I want to be spit roasted by Stellan and Jared.

I just learned Stellan has 8 kids. Holy fuck. He's very fertile.

At least he's producing hotties not fugs like some I could name.

Ummm...

Terror mini-reunion!

I could bathe in his voice.

bump

Just give him all the damned awards, already!

I'm a fan, I loved him in Mad Men, the Terror and Sherlock Holmes.

He was the only reason I stayed with Mad Men. When he left (I won't spoil it), I left.

Here is the great Man Men scene from season 5 where Jared's character challenges Pete Campbell to a fight after receiving an insult.

Love this scene and love the 3 guys watching, fascinated and the 2 women listening in the next room.

bump

Looks like his dad

Big new interview

bump

He was superb in Chernobyl. I’d love to watch him and stellan skarsgard just going around solving mysteries.

He showed a really nice butt when he was young (in B. Monkey), and I once masturbated to it.

I just finished rewatching Chernobyl, and started watching The Expanse on Amazon purely because of Jared. He's really the only good thing about it, and he's oddly hot in the role.
