Hollywood seems to be in love with British actor Regé-Jean Page. Since his role as Simon Basset in Shonda Rhimes’s Netflix shows Bridgerton he has been quite a demand. This show got him an Emmy nomination. He has also been in big-budget movies like The Gray Man and Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves as The Paladin.

Regé recently appeared on The Tonight Show and was questioned about a lot of things. We’ve brought you everything you need to know!

What was Regé-Jean Page questioned about?

First of all, it was Regé’s first time on the show in person. Before this, he was interviewed by Jimmy Fallon online. Regé said, “It’s a huge relief to be here in person. Cause last time we did this I was in my living room and I got torrents of abuse from the public for my cushions.”

He quoted further, “Everyone was shocked that I was not actually British Royalty. And, it’s like, “No, this is what poor LA actors look like. We’re dirty, we’re broke. That couch has ramen on it. That’s how it works.”

He talked about his recent appearance at Comic-Con. Apparently, it was his first time there too. According to him, Comic-Con is a “nerd Mecca”. He was super psyched about going to Hall-H. It was the first time in 3 years that someone went to Hall-H. He said he asked Chris Evans and Ana De Armas for survival tips as he was going to Hall-H. Regé said, “I got nothing from these people.” 

He went there with the Dungeons and Dragons. That is “pretty much the heart of Comic-Con,” as Regé said. He premiered the trailer for Dungeons and Dragons there.

Regé was in Harry Potter

For those who don’t know, he also played a background actor in Harry Potter.

He also talked about how he got his role in The Gray Man. Regé told Jimmy that there were a lot of versions of how he got the role in the film. He said, “I mean, there‘s different versions if this story. So, like there’s a version that Joe tells where is wife watched Bridgerton. There’s a version where he watched it with his wife.”

There’s even a version where Anthony was picking up his kids, and all the moms were talking about Regé. And Anthony was like, “I need to know who this guy is.”

He’s playing a guy named Denny Carmichael, who’s the devious head of the CIA. He summed up the film like this: “Essentially, I am Ryan and Chris’ boss, I tell them to go out across the world and punch each other in the face, and they do.”
