Nicholas Galitzine and Leo Woodall comically discover they auditioned for one another's esteemed positions.
Even though they acknowledge from the beginning of their "Actors on Actors" dialogue that they're supporters of opposing soccer teams, they came to the realization in the middle of their discussion that they had auditioned for one another's roles in "The White Lotus" and "Mary & George."
In one instance during their YouTube-published convo, Galitzine mentioned that when he's working with a celebrated actor, "people get humanized rather quickly," and with a smile, he applauded Woodall, "it's sort of the same with you, too."
"We're part of an industry that frequently sets people against each other," Galitzine from "Idea of You" stated. "You and I likely competed for similar roles."
Woodall interjected, affirming Galitzine's assumption that this was the case, as he auditioned for the role of George Villiers in "Mary & George," a Starz production revolving around King James I with Julianne Moore.
"Did you truly?" Galitzine inquired, laughing.
"Did you genuinely?" Woodall followed up, laughing as well.
"Yes," Galitzine replied.
In Season 2 of "The White Lotus," Woodall portrayed Jack, a bad boy who captivated Haley Lu Richardson's Portia, only to expose his malicious intentions in the finale that shocked viewers.
Alongside Tom Hollander, Woodall also delivered an explicit scene that Woodall revealed he hadn't told anyone in his family about until the episode aired.
"It pops up out of nowhere," Galitzine said of the scene, further teasing Woodall while pretending to know about the scene since he'd auditioned for the latter's role.
But, Galitzine poked fun at Woodall by saying, "you landed the part over me."
