Jodie Comer being an accent master for 10 minutes

Jodie Comer being a master of accents

I couldn't find any compilations of Jodie absolutely slaying the accent game so I thought I would attempt to make one myself :) I had to include Jodie's native accent at the end because being able to hide an accent that strong makes it all the more impressive!

there were some I was unsure how to label as it was not obvious to me where they were from as I'm certainly not a dialect or language expert, so if you notice any that have been mislabeled please correct them in the comments.

    her talent to switch accents and act like a chameleon makes her wonderfully authentic. in 6:19 she's speaking Catalan, similar to Spanish tho.
  • @canny_linguist
    "My mother has a funny sense of humour. It's dementia." Can't breathe from laughing.
  • Her American accent in Killing Eve is so good because I know she can do an American accent, so it elevates the performance to me that she is purposefully leaving traces of her Russian behind. She is a British actor sounding like a Russian faking an American accent. Brilliant.
  • @StaceyStaser
    One of the things on top of all this is that even when she’s speaking different languages I feel like you can still hear the undertones of Villanelle/Russian instead of her Scouse accent, so impressive
  • @astolat
    as a native Russian speaker, I admire her Russian accent. All these pure sounds, without distortion and hard "r", "d" ... My brain explodes with the authenticity of what I hear. Jody just scares me with her talent, beauty and intelligence.
  • @id3389
    The fact that she actually has a scouse accent irl makes it so much better, I love it! Killing Eve really showcased her talent with doing accents.
  • @thekul121
    It's not just the accent, but the tone of voice and the intonation - everything about her changes when she switches accents and it's incredible to watch
  • @maggieo
    Jodie has an inherent musicality to her voice, and it shines through in how she's able to master the melodies of each accent and language. BRAVA, JODIE!
  • She's very extremely talented actress. Not just the acting and facial expressions, but her accent too. You should put Scouse's accent in when she's acting in HELP. very strong accent 😄 And I'm dying when she starts to speak in Russian accent 😭🥵.
  • ok but why does each one look like it could easily be her real voice
  • @thea1990x
    normally people butcher the scottish accent but jodie does two near perfect! in the first clip she is doing a more northern scottish accent as they are in Aberdeen. in the second clip she sounds more like a lowland scot. incredible
  • @jodiesvillanelle
    I was flabbergasted when they started speaking German in the show and how good she actually sounded. I know she doesn’t really speak German but I’d love to have a German convo with her. She’s such an impressive person omg
  • @rehyse9751
    From minute 6:20 to 6:34 she isn't speaking Spanish, she's speaking Catalan. A different latin language. She pronounces grandad so well done! And I noticed she switched her Spanish accents too. Fantastic job
  • @aptx-ew8gq
    2:45 she's nailing it 😭 I remember the first time hearing this like wtf I'm SOOOOOO STUNNE
  • @capcarleone8271
    I've lost count the amount of times I've come back to watch this. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR MAKING THIS!!
  • She actually speaks more than just spanish, in Killing Eve she is in Barcelona where they actually speak Catalan! Amazing talent!
  • @capcarleone8271
    When she speaks Spanish, Italian, and English RP oh my fucking lort I fall in love more and more. Just so damn gorgeous and talented.
  • Also a couple random trivia things I thought I may note I know the creators of killing eve asked that Jodie’s Russian accent be more toned down as the character has lived outside of Russia for most of her life and it has been influenced by the other places she’s lived and if anyone is interested in seeing Jodie speak fully in her native accent I highly recommend help on channel 4 Such an amazing heartbreaking film which is set in Liverpool so she finally uses her full broad scouse accent! a rarity since most times in press and interviews she does tone it down as it’s notoriously hard to understand even for other Brit’s :)
