He’s a brilliant comedian and usually-accurate social commentator, but Louis C.K missed the mark with his remarks regarding aspiring actors on “Inside the Actors Studio.”

The “Parks and Recreation” star told Stephen Merchant back in 2008 that wannabe thespians who ask questions of bona fide stars on the A&E program “never make it.”

However, YouTube user Gabriel Antunes edited together the audio clips with a video of Bradley Cooper asking Sean Penn about one of his roles.

And obviously Cooper has gone on to have overwhelming success, as depicted in the subsequent clip of Bradley dry-humping Louis on “American Hustle.”
