W Magazine interview and screentest video

"BEST PERFORMANCES: Eddie Redmayne Taps Into His Dark Side"

Interview by Lynn Hirschberg

In the interview, Eddie talks about playing one of America's

most notorious serial killers. His performance earned him

a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actor.

He discusses his role and his attempts at being a cool dad.

"I know the world is obsessed with true crime, but I have a slightly moral opinion

of fetishizing killers. Our film is not just about this monster—it’s about the hero

who stopped him. And she stopped him by using compassion and empathy rather

than through violence. That felt like an important message."

"Jessica and I went to nursing school for two weeks, which I found hilarious.

The older you get the more you romanticize education. You go, ‘Well, maybe

I want to go back to university. Maybe that would be a wonderful thing to do.’

And then you do go back, as we did, and quite promptly, you turn into the

15-year-old version of yourself. I was leaning back in the classroom. I couldn't

really concentrate. It was all science, and none of that made any sense to me.

When I was practicing with needles, I succeeded in injecting my finger.

It was a disaster."

In the new W Magazine Screentest video Eddie talks about "sort of" being a wizard

for his children, tells stories about how he crushed a wedding, his first love scene

in Savage Grace, his first redcarpet premiere, being a Capricorn and casting.

"They've seen a bit of the trailer. They both asked, “Daddy, are you a wizard?” 

Which is tricky because one of the perks of the job is that you get to do these

cool things and be an interesting dad. You want to say yes, but you also don't

want to lie to your children, so in the moment, I said, "Sort of.”..."

"It was in a film called Savage Grace. It was based on a true story. The character

I played was gay, and his mum, played by Julianne Moore, tried to sleep with him.

There ended up being a ménage à trois with another man, played by Hugh Dancy.

It was definitely one of the more surreal experiences of my life. And it turns from

incest to violence. My early work! [Laughs] Before I found tweeds and period dramas."

Ruthie's Table 4 podcast

Ruthie's Table 4 podcast shared these nice photos on Instagram. 

Eddie was a guest on the podcast hosted by Ruthie Rogers. She wrote:

"A year ago, I used every bit of access and influence to get tickets to Cabaret

for one reason only - to see Eddie Redmayne the star of the show. And last

week, conquering my enormous fear of being afraid, I watched him in The

Good Nurse and was unnerved how beautifully he made a mass murderer

not only empathetic, but almost loveable. All of us in The River Café know

Eddie as an enthusiastic eater. On this episode we discuss his life through

food but not before we put him to work in the kitchen, fulfilling his life’s

dream and making pizzas with our chef, Jessica Filbey."

Eddie shared some personal food-related stories from his life.

He also talked about his family, favorite foods, and cooking.

You can read the transcript in the

Variety article by Daniel D'Addario:

Ana de Armas and Eddie Redmayne Bond Over Marilyn Monroe’s

Dark Side and Choosing Roles ‘Far Away From What You Look Like’

"I was astounded by your work in Blonde, It felt like you ripped open

your soul for the sake of Marilyn."

"But still terrifying when the person you’re playing is going to watch your work.

There comes a moment when you have to go, “This isn’t a documentary.

I’m getting it wrong. I’m just going to do my best and give my heart to it.”

"The weird thing about our jobs is going from job to job, city to city,

and to these new families that you make. To do our job, you have to

be vulnerable, and you become very close to people very quickly.

There’s such a complexity to that."

“I’m not Method at all. But when I arrived on the set, the director,

Tobias Lindholm, had my wrist locked up...”

"It wasn't a story about a serial killer. It was a story about

a relationship between these two people."

"I have no idea who I am." (public self and private self)

“I always say to young actors who are at drama school or university,

‘Play as far away from what you look like as you can. Because

the second you get into the real industry, you will be playing to type,’”

The quotes and my screenshots are from the video of the conversation.
