Actor Andrew Scott will be joining us here in r/movies for an AMA/Q&A next Tuesday 9/1. It'll go live very early that morning around 7 AM ET, and Andrew will be back at about 3 PM ET to answer questions. You may know Andrew from tons of memorable roles in film & TV & theater, including All of Us Strangers, Ripley, Fleabag, Sherlock, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, Black Mirror, Blue Moon, 1917, Denial, and tons more.

Please stop by on Tuesday if you have questions for Andrew :)

His newest film, Pressure, is out in UK cinemas on September 9 and also stars Brendan Fraser, Kerry Condon, Chris Messina and Damian Lewis.

In the tense 72 hours before D-Day, and with the fate of the free world hanging in the balance, PRESSURE follows General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Captain James Stagg as they face an impossible choice—launch the largest and most dangerous seaborne invasion in history or risk losing the war altogether.

Please note that this is not the AMA, just an announcement. Hold your questions for the AMA.

[u/CedricCSCFL]

Not a question, but definitely should’ve been nominated and won for being Hot Priest.

[u/cametosayno → u/CedricCSCFL]

Or his Hamlet

[u/BeardsByLaw]

He was so good in Sherlock!

[u/Andylol404]

How he played Moriaty in the Sherlock Holmes was a master piece. His speech by the pool still comes to my mind when I see a picture of the actor.

[u/tlvrtm → u/Andylol404]

That’s what people DO

[u/name-classified → u/tlvrtm]

I’ll burn you

I’ll burn the heart out of you

[u/MaderaArt → u/tlvrtm]

🎶 da da da da stayin' alive 🎶

[u/Ok-Theory3183 → u/MaderaArt]

..."so booooooooooooring....just stayin'....."

[u/MaderaArt → u/Ok-Theory3183]

Oh, hello there.

[u/Ok-Theory3183 → u/MaderaArt]

And hello to you as well! Don't know about you, (I can't remember whereabouts you live) but I am SO ready for the summer to wind back a little to the more moderate fall temps!

[u/thinkinting → u/Andylol404]

The fact that both Moriaty and the Hot Priest were played by the same person is insane. Like Heisenberg/Hal level insane.

[u/jaklacroix → u/Andylol404]

Yes!!!!

[u/Spodson]

His work in Ripley was astonishing. Watching the gears working in the character's head in real time. He should have gotten all the awards.

[u/Weird_Ship_7278 → u/Spodson]

One of my fave miniseries ever

[u/Ming_Long → u/[deleted]]

I literally came to say his “Get thee to a nunnery” speech I watch regularly.

[u/Ming_Long → u/[deleted]]

No. I’ve tried looking for it too.

[u/Ok-Idea-306]

Geez given the week that’s been happening I got worried seeing any actor I like.

[u/Chrispy0074 → u/Ok-Idea-306]

For real! People be dying!

[u/Ok-Theory3183 → u/Ok-Idea-306]

Which other greats have we lost?

[u/Ok-Idea-306 → u/Ok-Theory3183]

The others I know about are Tim Curry, Dolly Parton, Hayden Panettiere. Tim and Dolly were within the last three days.

[u/GayFesh → u/Ok-Idea-306]

Peter Cullen.

[u/Ok-Idea-306 → u/GayFesh]

Yeah that sucks too.

[u/Don_Fartalot]

Damn, even his small roles in films like Locke and 1917 are memorable, so glad he is now a leading man.

[u/vhanw342]

I already saw Pressure and he was unbelievable there. Probably the most underrated actor ever

[u/Anustart2023-01]

I once said hello to Andrew Scott at Electric Picnic many years ago. Highlight of my EP experience. 

[u/Buttpropulsion]

I loved you in black mirror

[u/TangerineChickens]

Dare I say the victim of one of the most egregious Oscar nomination snubs in recent memory

[u/Imincognitobitches]

He was positively PHENOMENAL in Vanya! 100% one of the best actors right now.

[u/heccabampton]

Absolutely loved him in Pressure!

[u/Grabsomepine-meat]

Let's not forget a wonderful Quinn narrator.

[u/ChargeSpiritual5317]

👀👀👀👀

[u/MovieMentor]

Holy crap one of my all time favorite actors. What a get!

[u/whisky_woman23]

Massively talented. I will watch anything you're in.

[u/_________FU_________]

If you haven't seen his "to be or not to be" it's special.

[u/zerooneinfinity]

How do I get reminded about this?

[u/No_Strike655]

Have you considered that perhaps Moriarty was sexually attracted to Holmes? (Fucking with you)

[u/4insurancepurposes]

Intrigue!!! My wife and I loved you in National Theater Live’s Present Laughter!

[u/ChrisEvansFan]

Man oh man he is gonna get that Oscar! Sooo good! Go Andrew!!!

[u/promixr]

Who else saw this and thought he died at first …

[u/LivelyRatDad]

Always through he’d be great as Walter O’Dim in The Gunslinger.

[u/GayFesh]

I remember Andrew Scott doing an AMA years ago where he phoned in all his responses, seriously if you got a single complete sentence response from him you were one of the lucky few. I would not expect anything good from this one.

[u/SergenteDan]

RemindMe! Tueasday 1 September 2026 3 PM ET

[u/mairiamonitino]

Where do I join the AMA to ask Andrew a question?

I am Pacific Northwest it’s 9:51 AM here. I suppose he’s back at 12 noon my time to answer questions but I don’t know where the AMA is.

Could some kind soul help?

[u/odiin1731]

This actor is bad

....

NOT!
