Paul Mescal has said Saoirse Ronan "hit the nail on the head" when she spoke about women’s safety, in a clip that went viral.

In an appearance on the Irish broadcaster RTE's The Late Late

that's a conversation that we should absolutely be having on a daily basis.

It’s giving Mark Ruffalo.

Based on what Saoirse is saying, included in the post, that's a rather uncharitable interpretation, but it's my own fault for bolding that part because I know ONTD doesn't read 😭😭

Paul, being one of my very dear friends, I've had conversations like that with him before and he completely gets that and completely understands that.

The key here being that he's not just saying that this is a conversation we should have but it's a conversation he's actually having.

Oh no! I didn’t mean for my comment to dismiss the rest of your post, Paul and/or the quotes. I did read it and Paul def seems legit, it was just that quote that brought me back. I should have added an asterisk.

[kaiserschmarrn]

In isolation, it's not exactly a meaningful thing to say and if that was all anyone said in response to this, it'd absolutely be giving Mark Ruffalo so I totally get what you meant. I just bolded a different part of the quote anyway though so it's not all people take from this. I'm not even a stan or anything, just think the follow-up to the clip deserved some attention as well because it's been blowing up in the UK.

Now we just need Eddie Redmayne weighing in...

I know ONTD has turned on him but he seems like a good egg to me.

[weighty_ghost]

that seems to happen with anyone doing a press tour. too much exposure and bound to have an instance where they say something that someone doesnt like

[theactualworst]

Yeah but I think it started with him dating whataherface in her skeleton jumpsuit who left him for Bo Burnham.

[weighty_ghost]

ah yes, when they decided to fly during covid to hook up... true true. i thought he gained some sympathy back after that given her hooking up with Bo and the sad boys club or whatever they did while Bo and her were galivanting with Swift and he was friends with Joe...

I have nothing of value to add but I hate how his shirt is buttoned up all the way in that interview. It looks weird!

[warsawed]

he's been wearing a lot of strangely fitting sweaters this press tour

[itsme_eloise]

he likes his dress clothes with a tiny bit of fop, i've noticed

[warsawed]

Its nice that he didn't downplay it or make it seem unimportant. Their friendship is cute tbh.

[sapphiredragon]

Pretty mature responses from both of them, low drama. Makes sense this post has no comments 😩

[kaiserschmarrn]

That's always how it goes, the ragebait wins. Maybe I should have included a question in the old style: ONTD, how do you feel about the men in your life? lol
