puff 456 Who would want to bully Jude Law?
Biography
[edit] Early life
Law was born in Lewisham, South London, England to teachers Peter and Maggie Law, who run a drama school. His sister Natasha is a well regarded illustrator and artist. He was educated at John Ball Primary School in Blackheath and Kidbrooke School in Kidbrooke then Alleyn's School in Dulwich. He was removed from Kidbrooke by his parents due to alleged bullying and being held out of a window at the school. He started acting with the National Youth Music Theatre at the age of 12 and, at 17, he dropped out of school completely. He trained at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, though he later dropped out.
[edit] Career
Law's first major stage role was as Foxtrot Darling, the sexually ambiguous and manipulative teenager in Philip Ridley's The Fastest Clock In The Universe. Law went on to appear as Michael in the West End production of Indiscretions, an imaginative re-working of Jean Cocteau's tragicomedy Les Parents Terribles directed by Sean Mathias, a role he subsequently played on Broadway opposite Kathleen Turner, Roger Rees and Cynthia Nixon. After minor roles in British television, including a two year stint in the Granada TV soap opera Families, Law had his breakthrough with the British ram-raiding drama Shopping which also featured his future wife Sadie Frost. He shot to fame in Britain upon the release of Wilde, in which he played Lord Alfred Douglas, the glamorous lover of Stephen Fry's Oscar Wilde.
Law subsequently moved to Hollywood; his performances include Gattaca, as a frustrated Olympic medalist bound by a wheelchair, in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil as the ill-fated lover of Kevin Spacey's character, in Road to Perdition as a sadistic hitman in a critically-praised performance. He has been nominated for an Academy Award twice; once as Best Supporting Actor for his performance in The Talented Mr. Ripley in 2000, and then again as Best Actor in a Leading Role for Cold Mountain in early 2003.
Law's career suffered a major decline during 2004. The remake of Alfie was a box-office flop, earning only about half of its estimated $60 million budget.
Law's career woes dogged him through, pretty much, the rest of the year. Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, and I ♥ Huckabees were box office failures, even while obtaining modest critical praise. Law was famously the butt of a joke by Chris Rock at the 2005 Academy Awards.
Law is a fan of the graphic novel Watchmen, by Alan Moore, so much so he has a tattoo of the Rorschach character. He has maintained an interest in being involved in a feature film production of the series, especially if it were directed by Darren Aronofsky. He has said that he would most likely play the character Ozymandias. He was, at one point, courted to play either Batman or Superman in Batman Begins, Batman vs. Superman, and/or Superman Returns.
In addition, he was asked by Superman Returns director Bryan Singer to play General Zod, but the character was eliminated from the script.
In 2005, he was one of many actors rumored to be a possible choice to assume the role of James Bond, as MGM decided not to renew Irish actor Pierce Brosnan's contract. Law decided against auditioning for the role, stating that he didn't feel as though he was fit for the part and would prefer to play a villain in the popular franchise. The role would eventually go to fellow Englishman Daniel Craig.
[edit] Personal life
Law married Sadie Frost on September 2, 1997. They have three children together: son Rafferty (born October 6, 1996), daughter Iris (born October 25, 2000) and son Rudy (born September 10, 2002). For a time Frost and Law were central to the so-called 'Primrose Hill set' of young British actors.
They finalized their divorce on October 29, 2003. In 2005, Frost and Law reached a divorce settlement after nearly two years of negotiations. Frost kept the couple's $4 million London house in Primrose Hill, and received payments from Law totalling $2 million.
Law became engaged to Sienna Miller, his co-star in Alfie. On July 18, 2005, he issued a public apology to his fiancée for having an affair with his children's nanny. Law and Miller reconciled. Reports from May 29, 2006 stated that Miller and Law were "working things out". On November 12, 2006 Miller and Law made public their relationship was over.
Hosted Saturday Night Live on October 23, 2004, which is now notorious for Ashlee Simpson's lip-synching gaffe on her second performance.
On November 17, 2004, Jude Law was named People magazine's sexiest man alive.
A song by the band Brand New is titled "Jude Law and A Semester Abroad".
Law is a fan of the legendary English stage and screen actor Sir Laurence Olivier. It was his idea to use archive footage of Olivier (who died in 1989) in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow so the deceased actor could "play" the film's villain.
Jude Law is a supporter of the English football club Tottenham Hotspur .
Jude Law was honored with the César Award (César d'honneur 2007) for his film work on February 24th, 2007.
Jude Law was awarded l'Ordre de Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres by the French Government on Thursday, March 1, 2007 in recognition of his contribution to World Cinema Arts.
