I was so happy he was in that. He was just so good. ♡ I felt like the detective gave off some heavy Dale Cooper from Twin Peaks vibes, to me. She was odd, but enjoyable :)
I can see why you'd think that, but the surname is actually from the latin expositus ("to expose/place outside") and is believed to stem from an Italian tradition of giving the surname to children born out of wedlock and orphans of unknown parentage, sort of making Giancarlo Esposito the Jon Snow of italian naming tradition
Thanks for the sauce. And @ PiercedViking: how the hell do you recognize him? Watch it frame by frame? Rewatched it recently and didn't have a clue. https://imgur.com/Z8qoGVG
Neither of his parents spoke Danish and they moved to the US when he was six, so any Danish he may have spoken in daycare/kindergarten is probably long gone

As an added bonus we know the size of her head with remarkable precision as well

He seems like just an awesome man. Love his acting.

He's really funny in The Gentlemen. "With a T."

Good show.

Wait, this person "found" a banana outside? That's not scratchy at all.
Cyberpolis
Well the little tip that was attached to the rest of the bunch might be a LITTLE scratchy

I've seen this meme a dozen times and it never occurred to me that was her.

I knew she looked familiar, but couldn't figure out who she was. I've only ever seen her on Taskmaster NZ.

She is also in a weekly show in Australia called the cheap seats, it's pretty funny

Is it me, or does "Esposito" mean "tiny husband?"
Feralkyn
The name is Italian, and has its own meaning

I have questions about people who find random bananas outside and think,"yup, that's joining me on my adventure today"

technically it's possibly they bought the banana at the banana stand

An Afghanistan banana stand?

There’s always money in the banana stand

I was rewatching Trading Places with Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy and was shocked to notice him as an extra in the jail cell with Eddie.
SalmonTheWise
And DEA and Cartel thought he was Chilean. Ha, fooled them, always one step ahead.

Not a single clue. Eddie was chewing the hell out of that scene so I can understand missing him. I shocked I never noticed either.
LazerHawkAttack
I wonder if he still speaks danish
Feralkyn
I wonder if he speaks Italian
lordfancypantz
Why would he be able to speak danish? (Haven't watched all seasons yet)
LazerHawkAttack
He's Danish. Born in Copenhagen
