Little White Lies interviews Eddie Redmayne of My Week With Marilyn. I love it when actors actually talk about the career management portion of their job:
Informally you’re part of a group of up-and-coming British actors making waves in the States right now. Is there a sense within that group of having made it?
Yeah. Well… Working and spending time in the States, it’s interesting to see the group of actors and actresses from my generation, who all started around the same time, getting so much respect. It’s wonderful, and at some point I’d love to work with some of my mates in that capacity, because it’s exciting, having started off as jokers trying to get a gig, thinking that our paths could meet.
Who are we talking about, exactly?
Dom Cooper, Andrew Garfield, Ben Whishaw, Charlie Cox… We’re not best mates, I’d say more close peers.
And what a fine group they are, right?

THR Hugo looks to be overperforming a bit at the box office in a nice surprise.
Awards Daily Samples from the Hugo soundtrack. Do you think Howard Shore will see another nomination?
Finally, Sons of Norway reports that Martin Scorsese may take on the adaptation of the novel The Snowman soon. But a word of caution before you race out to buy the book in the hopes of getting a jump on a future Scorsese. This is one busy busy busy 69 year old man. The IMDb, while not 100% reliable on such things as future projects, lists over a dozen projects on his current docket and since he's not as fast as Eastwood and Allen, he'll be in this 80s before we've seen them all. I respect the author Jo Nesbø's approach to a film adaptation; he wouldn't sell without director approval. Scorsese was at the top of his dream list of five.

My ovaries are exploding reading Eddie Redmayne analyzing Andrew Garfield's career path.
Oh dear, I fear Sasha Stone won't be shutting up about Hugo anytime soon.

Okay Hollywood (or BBC, I don't care) I need a film that stars Eddie Redmayne, Dominic Cooper, Andrew Garfield, Ben Whishaw, and Charlie Cox. I don't care what it is about, I just need it to happen. The world deserves it.
