I was surprised when I first read the Chicago Film Festival program and haven't seen

Eddie on the guest list. I knew that he's in the city filming 'The trial of the Chicago 7.

I thought that he will be there, and yes, he was. I read the announcement on the festival's

Twitter account last minute, that he joined director Tom Harper at the premiere.

The glasses are cool if Eddie wears them (source)

@scenaristic: Standing 10 feet away from Eddie Redmayne. No big deal.

In this redcarpet interview, Eddie Redmayne talked about his harrowing
ballooning experience in the film

Another redcarpet interview video here
Eddie Redmayne and Director Tom Harper tell MoviesandShakers how drones and
helicopters were used to stage and shoot the balloon flight scientifically based to test
atmospheric change. Redmayne admits that Felicity Jones had the most physical role,
developing a 6 pack climbing all over the massive balloon. Harper points out
Redmayne got his share of bruises, too, even though they also used CGI blue screen.

My First... Eddie Redmayne & Felicity Jones interview with British Vogue

Eddie Redmayne & Felicity Jones share their “firsts” – from kisses to hangovers – with
British Vogue. Discover more about Jones's teenage crush, Redmayne's first job serving
drinks to the cast of Hollyoaks, and his enduring penchant for Disney characters.

“Now I have a really crap memory, so - I don’t know if you were asking Felicity
this question as well - but she might come up with a different answer. It was either
at a mutual friend Polly Stranham’s house. And I remember going and having a
night out there, and I think I met Felicity there, but also then met at an audition…
and the director wanted to see if we had chemistry, so he just told us to stare at
each other, so we just stared at each other.for about an uncomfortable minute
and a half and I never got a callback. So I don’t think that went pretty well.”
- Eddie Redmayne about his first meeting with Felicity Jones

First hangover: "My friend & I stole a bottle of Jack Daniels & got very, very drunk.
My friend ended up being sick over the singles section in Our Price. Left him outside
his front door. I got home & fell asleep & woke up to a cracking hangover with my
mum screaming up the stairs, telling me that my friend’s mum was on the phone and
what had I done to her son."

Film you watched: "It remains one of my favourite films & I just showed it to my daughter

the other day & it was the Disney cartoon of Robin Hood. Still so brilliant. I love it."

I’ve made it moment: "I’d done a television series called Pillars of the Earth and

I came outside on Broadway between two shows and there was a massive poster

for Pillars of the Earth on Times Square. That felt like quite a big deal. Then

trying to do a sort of sly selfie of you in the foreground with the thing in the

background without anyone noticing that you’re taking a photo of yourself and

a big photo of yourself. But actually, I had so much spray tan on in that television

series that I don’t think I looked recognizable anyway."
