“I could listen to Joe Alwyn for hours,” said a third.
Others were surprised at how sincere and articulate he was, and how he came across as a “nice person.”
‘I couldn’t stop smiling for eight minutes. I love this man lol and respect him for wearing the truce pin and speaking out against Trump,” wrote another.
During his conversation with Meyers, Alwyn talked about his new three-hour film, The Brutalist, and its “small budget” and his love for American audiences.
While talking about seeing a movie in the United States, he joked about how people in the United States watch movies versus England, where they are “embarrassed to even buy a ticket and show up.”
‘I recently saw Conclave in America, in LA. It takes place in the Vatican. And there were about ten people there dressed as bishops. There was a pope. I mean, they had made the pilgrimage to Sherman Oaks,” he mused, drawing laughter from the audience.
Elsewhere in the interview, Meyers asked how Alwyn felt when he appeared on his “first talk show” in America.
‘Terrible. No,” he said with a charming smile. ‘It’s great.’
The 33-year-old actor previously dated the pop star, 35, for six and a half years after they fatefully met at the 2016 Met Gala until they split in early 2023; seen in 2020

His appearance comes less than two weeks after he made a rare comment about his past relationship with Swift during a recent interview with The Guardian.
When asked if the idea of dating the 14-time Grammy winner would overshadow his career, the actor replied, “I’ve tried to just focus on controlling what I can control.”
“From the beginning, I tried to focus on the things that are meaningful to me: friends, family, work of course,” he said.
“So noise out there, I think I’ve done what a lot of people who are in the public eye do, which is try to just ignore it,” he explained, adding, “If you don’t, and if you allows all these other things into it, and when it starts to affect you and your behavior, you live from the outside in. And then you pretty much suck.”

He and the Cruel Summer singer met sometime in 2016, the same year his first film, Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk, was released.
The couple tried to keep their relationship out of the public eye as much as possible, although Swift’s fans believe that the songs Beautiful from the 2017 album Reputation and London Boy from the 2019 album Lover are tributes to the British actor.
Swifties seemed to start paying attention to Alwyn after it was revealed he had writing credits on the singer’s 2020 album Folklore, which was written during the Covid-19 lockdown, and follow-up Evermore.
The actor received a Grammy for his contribution to folklore, which won Album of the Year, and said he was now in a different space.

“I have great family and friends and real things in my life; those are the things that kept me grounded,” he stated, adding, “So I don’t know how else to say it, it’s… just in another room.”
The Kinds of Kindness star said it’s time for fans to do the same.
‘That’s something other people have to do. We’re talking about something that’s been a while in my life. So that’s for other people. That’s what I feel.’
Swift has certainly moved on. The singer and songwriter has been dating NFL star Travis Kelce since sometime in the summer of 2023.
