Fantastic article, thanks for sharing!

Thank you! They have similar personalities, pretty cool. Kate is very extrovert, not shy at all, same for him. Soon he'll cast her in one of his films, you'll see 

I've always gotten the impression that he can be quite shy. I noticed that in early press junkets and interviews. He just seems a lot more comfortable now, more so with some interviewers like Anne Thompson, than others. It also helps that he's sharing the stage with Kate, they clearly have great chemistry together.

I don't think he's shy. I think he gets more comfortable with some specific journalists but he seems to be a funny guy as his co-stars usually point out. Of course that with a serious interviewer he won't be able to show a lot his entertaining side but he's usually super opened and extrovert when I watch him in press junkets. And when he has a similar person next to him (Kate is, let's say, louder than him though haha) things are even better. They've clearly become good friends. Sometimes they are a bit annoying together but I really admire both and I can't wait to see them on screen again. I didn't like Jobs but they had an amazing chemistry.

You're correct, he can be shy and is not as extrovert as some people think.

I've gotten that impression too. Maybe "shy" isn't quite the word, but I guess the feeling I get is that he's not a spotlight hogger who feels the need to always talk. In group interview settings, you can see he's quite reticent.

What a wonderful interview...especially when they talked to the two kids.

It's ok to like more than one actor. :))
