M Magazine photoshoot by Brian Bowen Smith - I'm speechless

bespokeredmayne:

Perhaps the most beautifully composed Eddie Redmayne photo ever, from the altogether perfect M Magazine shoot by Brian Bowen Smith. Eddie should make him his official photographer.

I Agree! This is my favorite too.

Playing and Being Stephen Hawking - new ToE article and stills


Must-read article about Eddie's preparation for 'The Theory of Everything' with quotes from Eddie, the director James Marsh and other cast and crew members. The empathy, intellect and dedication to his craft — and his iconic subject — is astounding. Amazing article, I embed the whole text here:
Theory of Everything: Playing and Being Stephen Hawking
September 5, 2014 by EmanuelLevy Leave a Comment (via bespokeredmayne)

James Marsh on the set
“For any actor, playing Stephen Hawking was going to be intimidating,” admits screenwriter and producer Anthony McCarten. “He’s a well-known public figure, an icon. My script called for an actor who could show the audience a man evolving over 25 years, going from being fully functional to having the use of only a few muscles – mainly one hand and some limited facial movement – and having his voice be superseded by a machine’s.”
Director James Marsh adds, “Whomever would play this part would have to do a lot of preparation. He would also have to convince as the Stephen only those close to the man knew, the shy university student.”
Producers Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner had recently worked with one of England’s rising stars, Eddie Redmayne, on the smash Les Misérables, and the actor was already aware of McCarten’s script. Marsh comments, “I was enthusiastic when Eddie’s name came up, and knew he was a great choice. The level of his commitment to the role was extraordinary, as he was fully onboard for not only the physical preparation but also the psychological preparation.”
Producer Lisa Bruce notes, “Eddie had a relentless intensity from day one. It was truly amazing to watch his evolution as he captured the many layers of both the Stephen we think we know as well as the man behind the image.”
Redmayne remarks, “When I read the script I was astonished at what this man has experienced, and done, since 1963. It was one of the most inspiring things I’d ever read. Stephen Hawking is an icon of hope.
“But this movie is also about the human being behind the icon. When we meet him in this story, he is 21, and so vibrant and athletic. He goes on to live a full life with a twinkle in his eye, and continues to do so. There are different sides to him: the wit, the brilliance, the stubbornness…I got the impression that he had a rock-star personality.”

In further researching the subjects’ lives, Redmayne learned that the professor came from a solidly intellectual family, while Jane Wilde’s decision to pursue an academic career was still considered a brave choice for a woman back in the 1960s. “They were very different people, both extraordinary yet polar opposites,” he says. “The idea of two human beings completing one another and defying all the odds I found compelling – and oh, was it romantic!”


The challenge of the physical demands required to play Stephen Hawking loomed large. As Redmayne’s friend and fellow actor – and, soon, The Theory of Everything cast member – Charlie Cox said when Redmayne told him about the role, “You have no option but to give it 3,000%.”
Accordingly, Redmayne parsed even the smallest details on the man he would be portraying. He notes, “Jane discusses in her book how Stephen had incredibly expressive eyebrows. That was something I spent months in front of a mirror working on.
“When I met Stephen, I noticed how ‘yes’ is sort of a smile and ‘no’ is almost a grimace, yet they only manifest in a couple of the facial muscles for him, so I learned how to isolate those.”

Redmayne adds, “The production surrounded me with an extraordinary team. James Marsh encouraged everyone 
to collaborate, and gave me the freedom to work closely with the different departments.
“One of the great thrills of doing this role was working with people who are at the top of their game. We were all of us taking on something we’d never done before which was quite special.”

Vocal coach Julia Wilson-Dickson and movement director Alex Reynolds were brought in early on by the filmmakers 
to work with Redmayne. Reynolds coordinated with the actor just how the various degenerative stages of motor neuron disease would be fully expressed on-screen as called for in the script.
Redmayne obtained permission to visit MND patients both at a clinic and at home. He explains, “I felt I had the responsibility of portraying this as a real condition.” The actor counted himself as fortunate to be able to meet with Stephen as well, and straight away “apologized to Professor Hawking for having chosen to study art history.”


Since there is no existing documentation of Stephen in the early stages of deterioration, Redmayne and Reynolds consulted with a doctor who specialized in motor neuron disease to more precisely chart the progression. Redmayne also shared the research with Wilson-Dickson. To carry the findings over for the 48-day shoot, Redmayne created a climbing-numbers chart that would gauge how advanced the MND was in a particular scene – a method which proved invaluable since, like most feature films, The Theory of Everything was not shot in sequence.
“Eddie prepared for months, to be ready to give multiple levels of performance,” marvels McCarten. “He had to be aware on any given day for a scene, ‘Is this stage four of my voice?’ ‘Does this mean stage three of my body?’
“He would go from ‘a 4.3 day’ for one day’s work to, for a scene set 10 years earlier and filming the next day, ‘a 2.7 day.’ Each day required all of his talent, discipline, and intelligence.”
Marsh availed himself of the chart as “a sacred text, because it demonstrated what was possible and not possible for Stephen at a moment in time. This had a big impact on how [director of photography] Benoît Delhomme shot a scene, and on how we framed it.
“We were sensitive to Eddie’s ability to engage the audience with no more than just a cast of his eyes and a small shift of the body. This is not easy for an actor to pull off, and it came at a physical cost to him. Every day he was in some sort of stress position that he had to maintain for hours at a stretch, while still projecting and making the character emerge out of the disability.” McCarten states, 
“Watching Eddie day after day on the shoot, I would see not him but rather Stephen Hawking.”
Marsh concludes, “As impressive as the technical elements of Eddie’s performance are, that he brings it all to emotional life is even more so.”

Eddie Redmayne became Stephen Hawking for the ToE movie - captures, articles, links





edited screencaptures from the trailer and a documentary

The Theory of Everything was screened for entertainment writers in Toronto yesterday. Their reviews are embargoed until Sept. 7, but we got this early preview from the Huffington Post Canada entertainment editor, whose enthusiasm for Eddie Redmayne’s performance could scarcely be contained. - source: bespokeredmayne (x)


Guardian Liberty Voice: Stephen Hawking Movie Covers Everything
...The actor playing Hawking has felt the weight of the part, calling it a “hefty” challenge from a physical and mental standpoint...Redmayne also hopes to achieve the sense of wit and humor a young Hawking had before his disease robbed him of many of those faculties.
The movie itself will not just cover scientific discoveries made by Stephen Hawking, but everything that made him the person he is today. That includes the deep love Stephen and his first wife, Jane, had while both studied at Cambridge University. Jane Hawking, played by Felicity Jones, fell in love with her fellow graduate student, Stephen, only a short time before his diagnosis with A.L.S. in 1963. 
...“Our film is about how they defied all the odds,” Redmayne says.
The director of the film, James Marsh, wanted to have a sense of authenticity run throughout, basing many scenes off archival pictures of Hawking on his wedding day and elsewhere. “We tried to reproduce them as best we could,” Marsh says. Redmayne was studious of the photos, noting the smiling faces on Stephen Hawking that revealed just how happy he was at the wedding. Other pieces of the wedding photos were interesting to Redmayne, as they showed that the disease was already pushing him to decline and taking away his ability to stand....

We Are Movie Geeks: 
Jóhann Jóhannsson Provides The Beautiful Score For Focus Features’ THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING
...The film boasts a beautifully poignant score by Jóhannsson depicting the ups and downs of their love story as Hawking faces a virtual death sentence from ALS.
Jóhannsson’s lovely score includes his signature blend of acoustic instruments and electronics. A keystone composer in the modern classical movement, Jóhannsson is distinguished by his ability to create soundscapes by electronically manipulating orchestral instrumentation, with an emotional range that spans from inspirational to harrowing....

Huffington Post: All The Movies You'll Want To See This Fall
Why We're Excited: The trailer is incredible and Eddie Redmayne deserves a big, meaty lead role like Stephen Hawking. Bonus excitement: Will the movie detail how Hawking left his wife (played here by Felicity Jones) in 1990 and married his nurse? If not, will that nugget be used during an awards-season smear campaign by another studio?

"The Theory of Everything" has a bit more going for it than just fancy period clothes. Director James Marsh ("Man on Wire") helms the tale of Stephen Hawking, focusing a keen eye on his relationship with his wife Jane. Eddie Redmayne ("Les Miserables") plays the brilliant physicist and Felicity Jones ("Like, Crazy") co-stars as Mrs. Hawking. The fine young actors have a chance to establish themselves even further here, with Redmayne facing the challenges involved with portraying a highly intelligent man who's also mad with love and physically limited.

Director James Marsh has scarcely put a foot wrong in his eclectic career thus far, so one dares to have real hopes for The Theory of Everything, starring Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones as Stephen Hawking and his wife.

The Lion Press Night

Eddie Redmayne attended the Press night of TheLion on 21st August in London. Hannah and his brother Tom Redmayne was there with him too.

About the show:
...The show, directed by Sean Daniels, is described in press materials as featuring "one man, six guitars and an incredible story of love, loss and survival."...

Review from Christopher Hong (ThePublicReviews)
...This is a performance at its simplest: just Scheuer and six guitars, telling us about his life. It is also storytelling and music at its best: direct, entertaining and engaging.

  …Yep that’s a pretty solid standing ovation. Many congrats @BenjaminScheuer @seandaniels (x)
