Patrick Stewart Shares the Secrets of His Eternal Youth With Stephen Colbert on The Colbert Report

What if Gandalf, Professor X, Magneto, and Harry Potter joined forces? We’ll never know, because the Harry Potter people didn’t call Patrick Stewart or Ian McKellen to offer them a part in the movie franchise. It’s OK, Patrick Stewart. The wounds will heal with time, which you’ve got plenty of — being that you’re clearly immortal and all.

I mean, if you’re going to call out an immortal guy, I guess TV is the best place to do it. If this conversation were private, Stewart probably would’ve used his powers to melt Colbert’s mind and steal his youth. But he probably also would’ve used that energy to take more selfies with Ian McKellen, so we would’ve forgiven him.
