Tony Award-winning and Oscar-nominated actor Andrew Garfield sits down with Michael Kosta to discuss his new film, “The Uprising.” They talk about how the peasant uprising of 1381 serves as a “long-distance mirror” to the political landscape of today, how acting serves as an empathy machine even when playing characters like Sam Altman, and what young men can learn from Carlos Alcaraz’s elegant U.S. Open loss. #DailyShow #Uprising #SamAltman #SocialNetwork

The Uprising was freaking awesome!!!
I saw the movie tonight. Despite what the critics said, I really enjoyed it. To me, it was a plausible leap to imagine that the lore of Robin Hood arose from the peasant revolt. After all, the director never claimed he was making a historically accurate "documentary".
Michael Kosta is great at interviews!
Thanks the Daily Show!
Dude has a net worth of $16m, but I respect the effort I guess
family? oh, no, not that…
11:45 should be decentralized ✌️

Peasants Uprising, 2026
I know exactly what he’s talking about! I was sudden in the middle of Boulder, Colorado. I had lots of friends. Out of nowhere. In the middle of a trauma for us all. Suddenly… Instant bonding.😊
On a kind of crazy note, he actually sounds more English in The Uprising than he does in real life. Playing Spider-Man and a bunch of other American roles must've taken a toll on his native accent lol
Awwww loved this interview with Andrew- saw the film tonight NY Upstate Films — Outstanding !! Thank you
"Everything" isn't falling apart. China looks to be primed to take the reigns! Republicans always lamented how they didn't want that and then….they elected TRUMP!! And he made it happen!
Am I crazy for thinking he looks like Milo (Miniminuteman)?
Garfield could play Federer if they decide to make a movie about him
The woods and ocean.. not eternal.
Pretty sure this was NOT the first peasant revolt in all human history. Ijs
I have been taught at a young age, that don't try to run to the top too quickly and alone as the fall is more painful. Many rich people have taken their lives even with millions in their accounts. Money can't you happiness. Andrew is definitely grounded. Love the new look with the long hair.
Great questions and great answers. Freely done.
I enjoyed the interview. The 1381 peasant uprosing is one of my favorite stories from the Middle Ages. I'm excited to go see the movie.
It keeps happening because it's human nature. People get complacent and forget that. When Democrats get into power again, they need to not only legislate to close all the loopholes that are being exploited, but tax the Rich and make sure these fundamental lessons are taught to every generation.
Well said…don't lose faith in humanity's abilities because we always get through!
Everyone should aspire to be like Andrew Garfield.
Loved this!
Andrew Garfield must be protected 🤍
❤close the gap❤
You are the BEST, Andrew Garfiled ❤❤❤
I've always admired Mr. Garfield for his honesty, his honesty here is beyond heart-warming, he appears as disarmingly HUMAN in this conversation and is more endearing. He's a generational "everyman".
People are finally talking about this astonishing and all-but-covered-up event. It cast a longer shadow through history than most people realize. It was brutally suppressed, yet in the end, after the fall of Richard II, all the reforms Tyler demanded came to pass, with the exception of the abolition of the aristocracy itself.
The People's Spidey. I could not love him more, unless he was my actual friend.
Great movie. Also, I like this new host.
5:53 so true
my fav spiderman…
I did a sales trip in ABQ and that city has some of the friendliest people I ever did business with.
Being stuck at the airport bonding deeply with Andrew Garfield sounds like a dream come true 😂
Every interview I see him in just makes me like him more and more
The funniest thing was when Kosta said they are close in age and everyone laughed… but they are only 3 years different.
Robin Hood & Zorro all come from these uprising facts/myths across history
Just saw the movie and it’s fantastic!!
Nothing more utopian than the past
He urgently needs a haircut.
