Taylor Swift‘s ex-boyfriend, Joe Alwyn, has won over a new audience after making his debut on an American late-night talk show on Tuesday evening.
While appearing on Late Night With Seth Meyers, fans were blown away by the 33-year-old actor’s charming personality as he answered questioned and promoted his new movie, The Brutalist.
Less than two weeks after insisting he has moved on from his split from Swift, who he dated for six and a half years until their 2023 split, the Harriet star left viewers captivated by his wit, sense of humor and sincerity during a rare public appearance.
‘So happy to see Joe in his debut night-time talk show ! I love his understated sense of humour that runs through his answers. The Brutalist needs to be seen on the big screen!’ one fan wrote under a YouTube view of the interview.
Another commented: ‘He’s so lovely. Intelligent, mature, quiet, well-spoken, kind, has humility, and good-looking. Seems like a lovely person. He’s a great actor – phenomenal in The Brutalist!! I love that he is getting rave reviews!’

‘I can listen to Joe Alwyn talk for hours,’ a third gushed.
Others marveled at how genuine and well-spoken he was, in addition to seeming like a ‘lovely person.’
‘I couldn’t stop smiling for all eight minutes. I love this guy lol and respect him for wearing the ceasefire pin and speaking out against Trump,’ another wrote.
During his chat with Meyers, Alwyn spoke about his new three-hour film, The Brutalist, and its ‘shoestring budget’ and his love for the American audience.
While speaking about seeing a film in the United States, he joked about how people in the United States see movies versus in England, where they’re ’embarrassed to even buy a ticket and show up.’
‘I saw Conclave recently in America, in LA. It’s set in the Vatican. And there were about 10 people there dressed up as bishops. There was a pope. I mean, they’d made the pilgrimage to Sherman Oaks,’ he mused, prompting laughter from the audience.
Elsewhere in the interview, Meyers asked how Alwyn was feeling while appearing on his ‘first talk show’ in America.
‘Awful. No,’ he said, with a charming laugh. ‘It’s great.’

Joe Alwyn sweetly greets his fans out in New York City
His appearance comes less than two weeks after making a rare remark about his past relationship with Swift during a recent interview with The Guardian.
When asked if thought dating the 14-time Grammy winner would overshadow his career, the actor answered, ‘I have tried just to focus on controlling what I can control.’
‘Right from the beginning, tried to focus on the things that are meaningful for me: friends, family, work, of course,’ he said.
‘So noise outside of that, I think I’ve done what lots of people who find themselves in the public eye do, which is just try and ignore it,’ he explained adding, ‘If you don’t, and if you let all of that other stuff in, and if it starts to affect you and your behavior, you’re living from the outside in. And then you’re pretty f**ked.’

Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn arrive hand in hand to SNL party in 2019
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 the songs Gorgeous from 2017’s Reputation album and London Boy from 2019’s Lover are homages 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 on its follow-up Evermore.
The actor received a Grammy for his contribution to folklore, which won Album of the Year, said he was in a different space now.

‘I have great family and friends and real things in my life; those are the things that kept me tethered to the ground,’ he declared, adding, ‘So I don’t know how else to say it, it’s… just in a different room.’
The Kinds of Kindness star said it’s time for the fans to do the same.
‘That’s something for other people to do. We’re talking about something that’s a while ago now 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.
