Louis C.K., Bradley Cooper, and the Magic of Video Archives

YouTube member GAabriel Antunes put together a weird bit of Hollywood coincidence that will take some explaining, but will blow your mind. Or maybe not, does this kind of thing happen all the time, and we just aren’t aware of it? This video is arranged in three parts.

1. In 2009, Louis C.K. talks about the wannabe actors who pose questions to movie stars, such as Sean Penn, during the show Inside the Actors Studio. No way any of those curious students will ever be famous!

2. In 1999, Sean Penn was indeed on Inside the Actors Studio, where he fielded a question from a wannabe actor named Bradley Cooper.

3. In 2013, Bradley Cooper harassed Louis C.K. onscreen when they were both in the movie American Hustle. Who's laughing now?

How anyone ever put all this together is beyond me, but I’m glad they did. (via Uproxx)
