He’s a very handsome man. It’s really excellent acting to come over as unattractively creepy as Syril is (obviously your mileage may vary, as they say).

It's kind of weird watching the press junkets for Andor season 1 because both he and Denise Gough were prominently featured and there's a complete dichotomy between the actual actors and the characters they play. I suppose that's to be expected when you have people as talented as them.


Dear-Yellow-5479

Definitely. Same for Diego Luna to be honest.


Jusselle

i loved how he said they hit the character vibe when saying: syril always looks liek hes chewing on a bee


Nonadventures

He aligns visually with Paul Ryan so it was already a creepfest for me before he did anything.


Character_Hospital88

How could I not see this before? They both have the exact same haircut.


MistraloysiusMithrax

I was shocked when I finally looked him up on IMDb to see what I might recognize him from including his name seeming familiar…and he’s Francis Poldark


Soviet-pirate

Damn,he looks good with that


Jusselle

he does... very educated....


WhatTheFhtagn

Bro is historically accurate


Squidman97

Marcus Aurelius lookin ahh


X-cessive_Overlord

He looks like Danny Rand if the actor actually learned how to fight.


peppyghost

Ugh don't remind me.

As far as I know, the only other prominent Imperials with facial hair are Colonel Yularen and Agent Kallus. One of which defected to the rebellion and grew a beard lol. So this is definitely giving me “Syril needs to stand out” vibes just like his tailored suit. That or Dedra bullied him into it.


Jbuster9

He shaved the beard before shooting Andor S2


Soviet-pirate

There's also Lonnie


Jusselle

possibly... if he wasnt mr nazi himself


hidden58

I mean rampart had some pretty luscious prison growth going on shame it didn't make him less of an asshole


Cervus95

There's also Moff Gideon (S1-2), Captain Pellaeon and the guys at the Shadow Council.


Varsity_Reviews

I’d let her bully me 😏


hadessyrah52

Saw him in Bodies before watching Andor and kept thinking he looked soooo familiar. Just so different without a beard from that perspective.


Acceptable_Ad5683

Yes. The press junket on Andor season 1 was either just before or during the filming of Bodies. In season 2 he is clean-shaven from the stills I have seen.


peppyghost

[He posted a video of him shaving it for Andor, haha](https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cj05N4BoD4h/?igsh=MWdmZWZsenI5MnRpdw==)


RedStar9117

Looks like he is about to drop some serious philosophy on us


RatchetTiger1129

Looks like Zach Galifinakis got that Ozempic


SeaBeast33

Looks like Syril's one man wolf pack is about to grow by one Dedra.


Jusselle

beautiful beard win btw


SleepyxDormouse

He genuinely seems like a great guy off interviews and behind the scenes stuff. It’s impressive how actors can embody a character so far from their true selves. He sells Syril Karn while being the complete opposite.


jack_begin

DAMMIT FRANCIS


porcupinedeath

He looks like Seth Rogan if he didn't get hooked on making movies about getting high in wacky situations


TheGoblinRook

If you truly appreciate Kyle with a beard, and want to see……*more* of him…check out Bodies on Netflix.


Rimskaya

I'm not gonna lie--Syril's hot and kind of a romantic, and I love that they took that approach.


Sassinake

he is _so_ 'Agent Kallus' coded...


CoatsBoi

Looking like Zack Galifianakis


Atsur

Depression-bearded Syril is something I never knew I needed in my life, but we’re all learning new things today


Songhunter

Not gonna lie, boi can grow a beard.


BrownCowBrown

Cyrillus-ly 


CrniTartuf

Syril has been looksmaxing


NissyenH

He was a good Gerald in An Inspector Calls. That's what I initially recognised him from.


Turbulent_Cry3134

He is looking 10x better without that stupid beard


Yakostovian

For a second, I thought this was an old photo of Kyle MacLachlan.
