1.
ACTUALLY NICE: Tom Hanks
Hanks is one of the most loved actors in Hollywood, and those who’ve worked with him can confirm he’s truly genuine IRL. After working with him on The Circle, Emma Watson had nothing but praise: “I’m like, ‘there’s no way this guy is going to live up to his reputation,’ right?” she told E! News. “There’s no way he’s going to be as nice as everyone says he is and whatever else. And then he was!”
“He’s so generous and funny and easy-going and he’s all the things you would want him to be. So I’m very happy to be able to report that to you sincerely because it would have broken my heart, I think, if Tom wasn’t Tom.”
2.
ACTUALLY NICE: Jim Parsons
The Big Bang Theory actor has gotten tons of praise for his professionalism and demeanor on set. While sharing what it’s been like working with him on the show, showrunner Chuck Lorre called Parsons a “comic genius” and said, “It’s just been one of the great gifts of my career to see a talent like that.”
In an interview with Parade, costar Mayim Bialik, who played Amy Farrah Fowler, said, “He’s fantastic. He’s very professional. He gives a lot of room for trying new things. He’s very meticulous, which I am as well, so that’s great.”
Also, in an interview with Variety, director Ryan Murphy shared his experience working with Parsons on The Normal Heart: “He’s what you expect, what you want him to be. He’s such a gentleman, so creative … Jim as a person, an artist, and an actor has a really rare gift. He has a real purity and simplicity.”
3.
ACTUALLY NICE: Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
Zac Efron told entertainment Weekly about his experience working with The Rock on Baywatch: “He’s a funny dude. He’s always expanding, and he just gets better as he goes, like a flower that never stops blooming,” he said. “But it was great, he was fantastic.”
Alvin Streeter, who has worked as Johnson’s stand-in in multiple movies also praised his work ethic in an interview with CNBC: “He’s grinding every day,” he said. “There’s an intensity when you’re working around him and you can see it and feel it in the air. He’s going 150 miles an hour every day.”
4.
ACTUALLY NICE: Meryl Streep
Meryl Streep has been praised by her costars — and she’s ~blown them away~ by her talent. In 2014, Into the Woods costar Anna Kendrick told Good Morning America all about her experience working with the Devil Wears Prada star: “It feels silly to say she’s great to work with because of course,” she said. “After the table read, everybody was just blown away, but no one wanted to be the first person to go, ‘Meryl is so good.’ It’s like, ‘Oxygen is so great.'”
5.
ACTUALLY NICE: Jennifer Lawrence
The actor might be known for her goofy personality, but those who’ve worked with her have also expressed just how much they’ve enjoy being around her. Hunger Games costar Willow Shields gushed to entertainment Weekly about her experience with Lawrence on set, “Jen is incredible. I don’t think I’ll ever work with someone as fun and as great as her. I mean, I think that we’ve really become like sisters on set, and she’s so fun in every way.”
6.
ACTUALLY NICE: Hugh Jackman
Jackman has received high remarks from those who’ve worked with him — including director Tom Hooper, who told The Hollywood Reporter about working with the star on Les Misérables: “He’s also so nice — it’s, like, unbelievable,” he said. “However long hours he works, however much he has to sing, he’s always gracious with the crew. He’s always a wonderful leader. He’s kind of inspiring. And I don’t want to go too far with this, I’ll sound like I’m gushing — but he really is kind of a rather amazing person.”
7.
ACTUALLY NICE: Drew Barrymore
Costar Bella Thorne had major compliments when it came to sharing what it was like working alongside Drew Barrymore — and Adam Sandler — in the movie Blended. “They [Barrymore and Sandler] are exactly how you think they would be onscreen as offscreen,” she told Latin Post in 2014. “They have fun-loving personalities. They have such a great vibe when they walk on. Everybody is having a good time on our set.”
8.
ACTUALLY NICE: Adam Sandler
Bella Thorne wasn’t the only person who had praise when it came to working with Adam Sandler. Longtime friend Kevin James told Access Hollywood why he loves working with the actor so much: “It’s always family, yeah absolutely. It’s the greatest. It’s literally like going back to summer camp with all your friends. It’s really a fun time, you know. You got all of ’em there.”
Also, Lauren Lapkus, who starred in The Wrong Missy — a Netflix movie produced by Sandler’s production company, Happy Madison Productions — shared with Los Angeles Daily News how positive her experience was and well Adam treats his crew, “One thing that’s really nice is that there is a feeling of family within the production because a lot of people are actually related. But even if they’re not related, they’ve worked together for like 20 years,” she said. “He’s really loyal to his crew — people doing hair and makeup and every single department — so most of the people had worked on Happy Madison films for decades. It was nice to feel like I was immediately brought into the fold that way.”
9.
ACTUALLY NICE: Sterling K. Brown
In a birthday post on Instagram to the beloved This Is Us actor, costar Mandy Moore shared just how much Sterling is loved on set by the cast and crew: “Happy Birthday to the guy we could (and do) gush about endlessly. You are a treasure, @sterlingkbrown.”
Executive producer and director Ryan Murphy worked with Brown on American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson, and in an interview with IndieWire, he raved about his talent and character. “[Sterling] comes prepared to win. He has every line memorized … He’s an incredible role model, and I think Sterling is also somebody who can do anything,” he said. “I think that’s another thing that people sense about him, is he’s just grateful, and humble as a person, and incredibly fun to hang with as well.”
10.
ACTUALLY NICE: Keanu Reeves
Many people loooove Keanu Reeves, and turns out, he’s also super selfless. Reeves took a major pay cut just so The Replacements could cast Gene Hackman in the 2000s movie — and Reeves himself had lots of positive things to say about working together. “I love acting, and I love it more and more, so it’s great to have the opportunity to do it. And I got to have some really great acting experiences this past year, like working with Mr. Hackman,” he said.
11.
ACTUALLY NICE: Paul Rudd
The one-and-only Paul Rudd is not only loved by fans — but by his costars as well. After working with him on Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Mckenna Grace told Looper, “Mr. Paul was really funny. Mr. Paul … he’s great. I wish that there was a gag reel. I feel like there was so much funny stuff that we did that didn’t make it in. There’s always going to be gag reel stuff for Paul.” She also added, “…I was chatting with him at the after-party last night, and he’s just very kind. He does give me advice and talk to me about the film, and it’s really kind.”
