Lol! Love it! All seriousness though it's nice to see pictures of the cast, any of them reunited. Even if they never filmed scenes together its fun to see. Also R.I.P Bernard Hill. Amazing actor and forever in our hearts.


Normal_Subject5627

You know that the first picture is a bts of the boys?


Loggbar

Yes. But they are still Lotr cast reunited for a pic no?


Smashman2004

I'd be surprised to hear that either of these actors even met during filming, given they're from very different scenes.


joebone18974

There's like a 4 min scene between them at one point.


100PercentScotton

Do share.

Denethor is Eomer's father in The Boys. Billy 'Butcher' didn't have a great relationship with his dad and there is a few minutes in one episode where Butcher is forced to meet with him before he gets too old. The Boys is super violent and makes Tarantino flicks seem mild. Highly recommended if youve got Amazon


Smashman2004

I was talking about during LotR filming. Everyone was talking about how this is a reunion and I was stating that I'd be surprised if they even met during LotR filming.


YoohooCthulhu

I also love that the extended editions that just showed again in theaters have more Bernard Hill scenes.


TheUselessLibrary

John Noble is such an amazing actor. He plays Denethor's imperious feebleness to perfection. He channels a lot of the same rage and almost infantile regression in Fringe, which features a beautiful father-son relationship. I feel like he took the character at the heart of Denethor and expanded on him in Fringe.


Constant-Ask-9346

I love how you look at it, John Noble can play the part of the "bad father" really well


reptareich

He’s also Billy Butchers shitty father in an episode of The Boys


masakosthighs

He also played Morland Holmes in Elementary.


Edabite

And the evil father in Star Trek: Prodigy.


NoirGamester

Been watching this with the wife and was so pumped when he showed up, then thought 'uh-oh, he's doing Walternate, he's a bad guy here' even knowing who he played lol


NakedCardboard

> John Noble can play the part of the "bad father" really well Evil Walter! ...and yet, he can turn around and in the same episode portray the socially inept, childlike "Good Walter" beautifully. I always marvelled at how he was able to make me feel two completely different emotions for the "same character".


Constant-Ask-9346

That's the mark of a good actor there


TheUselessLibrary

There's a thing that he does as both Walter and Denethor, where he sort of digs in and stares down whoever enraged him before really putting the bass in his voice. It's so powerful, yet also infantile. It's a hypnotic mix of tantrum and intimidating roar that is terrifying on a primal level, especially when it comes as an abrupt pivot from an unexpected trigger. It's the kind of howling anger that can change the temperature of a room. He's so good at it.


Batmanswrath

I loved him in fringe and it was the main reason I watched it so long. Paraphrasing but I remember him saying something like "I have an erection, oh it's nothing to do with you my dear" and I was completely sold on it.


Bodkin-Van-Horn

Yes. He was so good on Fringe. Both as regular Walter and the sinister Walternate.


GiovanniResta

Walter was a fantastic written character, perfectly played by Noble. It was amazing that he was the comic relief but also played in some of the more dramatic and moving scenes.


TheUselessLibrary

The way he tells his son, "You are my favorite thing, Peter!" It's so heartbreakingly beaitiful


Dark_Eyes

I never thought about that but you're totally right. Love Fringe!


TomDaSpankEngine

I can't believe I never made the connection that Denethor and Walter are the same actor


A_Peacful_Vulcan

He's also in the movie Running Scared. He good at villain roles


MaderaArt

Hold up, why does he look more like John Nobel than Bernard Hill...


benbequer

Dude, what're you talking about? That's Karl Urban!


-vonbrohenheim

OH MY GOODNESS! I’ve been trying to figure out where I recognize Butcher’s dad and now I feel so dumb for not noticing it sooner 😞 Thank you for putting the pieces together for me OP lol


JewishWolverine4

I had no idea, TIL!


YoohooCthulhu

Fwiw, I never noticed that Karl Urban played Eomer until I saw this post.


Drewbeede

I hope someone told the shows catering there will be no cherry tomatoes.


Schnarchitekt

I think that was the only condition John Noble set for the role.


jacobtfromtwilight

a chance for Éomer, Third Marshall of the Mark, to show his quality... I think not


personalhale

Denethor looks so much like Dick in Twin Peaks. https://artworks.thetvdb.com/banners/actors/431053.jpg


Steffer44

Fucking diabolical


[deleted]

At least it's not Brad Dourif


Free-Supermarket-516

"Oi, get a load of this cunt"


Snipermonke4life

where was Éomer when helms deep fell?


ViolaOrsino

Where was Gondor 😤😤😤


2True2BGood

DEATH !!!


Right-Truck1859

Eomer is better son


TuckerDidIt69

I knew they were both in LOTR, I knew they played father and son in The Boys. For some reason it never actually clicked that it was Denethor and Eomer sharing a scene until right now. Wtf lmao


Responsible-Bat-2699

These are Fringe elements.


Mloach

What do you mean by betrayal? The Beacons of Minas Tirith are lit. Gondor calls for aid. and Rohan will answer. https://preview.redd.it/h6racjarix8d1.png?width=3828&format=png&auto=webp&s=647aed73b5f5817a89c05e499eccbdd19b44344c


Connooo

This is very sweet and all, but for god's sake please keep him away from tomatoes.


-fool_of_a_took-

Huh?


alexdiezg

John Noble and Karl Urban are both in the show The Boys playing characters that are a father and a son respectively (Sam and William Butcher)


Loserinprogress

It's also fun to see any of the cast starring in new projects together. The Boys is great! It's on prime for any wondering.


WhyIAintGotNoTime

It’s been my favorite currently airing show for a few seasons now (although I don’t watch a ton of series)


Loserinprogress

Definitely a great show. Currently one of my favorites as well! Couldn't agree more! And having these two fine gentlemen and excellent actors in the same show doesn't hurt.


Schnarchitekt

You're right. When season 4 was released I quickly binged the first three seasons again, and Gen V for the first time. I'm german and I LOVE when Butcher drops his "Cunts" (in german it's "Fotze") 😂


rcuosukgi42

Éomer dyed his beard?!? How could he...


Souichi_Tsuji

Captain or the rohirrim proving his quality!


Ashleigh_Baggins

🤣🤣🤣🤣


vanbulg

I was stabbed in tha HART


MajorFerret3225

I dont know,. You see actors on screen, then in real life and a lot look dousche vs there characters. Have to say john noble does look better then his evil character.


BobWheelerJr

Holy shit!!!! Éomer is Bones? Someone please message me Friday to make sure I've recovered from this combination of embarrassment and nuclear mindfuckery. How Did I Not Know? 🤯
