Coffee Chats No.1 w/ Noah Centineo
In celebration ofThe RecruitSeason 2’s premiere on Netflix, Noah Centineo sat down with ScreenRant’s Liam Crowley to enjoy a siphoned, single-origin, chocolatey cup of joe and share his familial connection to coffee.
“My father owned a coffee shop when I was four years old,” Centineo said. “I was really young and he taught me how to pour shots of espresso. I have these really, really phenomenal memories of being a child in this coffee shop and spending a lot of time there working in it. Coffee’s always been a huge part of my life. Coffee’s always been there for me, that’s for sure.”
When asked who his dream Coffee Chats guest would be, Centineo once again pointed to his family.
“Honestly, my grandfather, when he was between either him being my age or the age he was when my father and his brothers were all living at home in Brooklyn in their apartment, just having coffee. That would definitely be my desert island. I’ve never really got to talk to the guy.”
Centineo also opened up about reprising the action-forward role of Owen Hendricks inThe RecruitSeason 2, a departure fromhis typical rom-com roleswith the streaming service.
“I’ve been auditioning and acting since I was eight. The only roles I could ever book was the love interest. That was just my thing for so long. I love it, and I would definitely go back to it for the right project. The Recruit just kind of came naturally. It was a dream come true, having the opportunity to step into a different genre. I don’t think it has changed too much for me. I still get to be a version of myself.”
About Coffee Chats
Presented by ScreenRant
Coffee Chatsoperates as a mixture of personal discussion through the lens of coffee as well as a dive into the guest’s latest project. Along the way, we’ll hit a Cold Brew Open, give our First Sip Synopsis, discuss our personal Coffee Callbacks, share our dream Desert Island Drinks and more.
“I pride myself on being a conversationalist, and there’s no better setting to chat it up with someone than a cafe,” ScreenRant Reporter, Host Liam Crowley said. “Back when I attended Syracuse University, I used to make’coffee review’videos with my friends on my social media. To essentially expand that 60-second concept into a full-blown production and be accompanied by some of the biggest names in Hollywood is a true ‘pinch me’ moment.”
“From the moment I reached out to Liam about joining ScreenRant’s New York team, we envisioned expanding our content offerings with engaging, in-depth interviews, including an original series,” ScreenRant Editorial, Branding, and PR Director Rob Keyes said. “Liam already had an idea for this, and Coffee Chats perfectly embodies this vision, offering a unique format that connects audiences with leading industry talent while supporting local businesses. We are thrilled to launch this series and collaborate with local establishments on this exciting initiative.”
“Over the past 21 years, ScreenRant has interviewed every star in Hollywood several times,” ScreenRant Content Director Alex Leadbeater said. “Across press junkets, red carpets, convention panels and beyond, we’ve been a constant presence in the entertainment industry. Coffee Chats builds upon this success to create a more intimate backdrop for a more personal, longer-form style of interview.”
Coffee Chats is created by Crowley, Keyes, and Leadbeater and is produced by Tiffany Loving, Laura Watson, and Jacques Reeder.
