‘I had to spit in the face of Michael Caine’: Jack O’Connell on Skins, Impostor Syndrome and Stripping | Jack O’Connell

Your new movie, SinnerSounds scary. What scares you? MrSobaldrick
Loneliness.

I’ve always wanted to actBut I never won the jump. Has there been a role where you felt? pushed a dive From your comfort zone? Aliciagrace1
The portrayal of an American comes with inherent impostor syndrome, because so many other American actors can play the role. The roles that I played in the US have greater awards of my experienced experiences than some of my other roles. But it can be longing and fulfilling to do something that is very different, so it works both sides.

’71 was A hell of a ride with white knuckles Around the backs of Belfast. Have you got that feeling of urban claustrophobia when filming? AUBREY26
We actually didn’t film it in Belfast. I think it would be pretty insensitive to shoot that kind of story on the streets where, not so long ago, that wild, urban conflict was really lived. You cannot take that off without making people upset. We shot a lot on the border of Derbyshire Yorkshire.

Held The screenwriter ’71, Gregory Burke, Set up the scenario to match your background, For example, the line about Derby and Nottingham Folk not on? InverclydediaSpora
Yes, dead. Originally my character was Sheffield. I think the original line people from Sheffield and Leeds did not come through, but that local rivalry is relevant all over the country.

Michael Caine really shouted: “Star of the Future!” With you during filming Harry Brown? And did Angelina Jolie Really hire a helicopter to participate in a family dinner in Derby during filming Unbroken? Turaholeela2
Michael Caine let me be tied to a chair and asked me. I had to spit in his face, which was extremely daunting. I think it did that made him come out with that. I didn’t forget. It was completely amazing for a 19-year-old to work with someone like Michael Caine, a hugely important actor for young actors in the working class.

We prepared for unbroken. I had to lose a lot of weight [to play the Olympic runner Louis Zamperini]So I hung down in a hotel in Ascot, diet and learning my lines. Before we started shooting in Australia, Angelina wanted to meet my family, my nearest and dearest. We came together somewhere on the outskirts of Derby who was national enough to land a helicopter. Everyone just buzzed. My Nana chose a moment during the meal to get up to say a few words, that way old-school Nanas would do that, and I think that really stayed with her [Jolie].

How did you prepare for your role in? Starred up? Exilecuclachy
Jonathan Asser [the writer] Was generous enough, once we had been cast and rehearsed a few times, to take a step back and give us license to find things out and bring new things into the fold. We filmed consecutively, so it was very organic. We shot it on this empty, crumbling Victorian prison in Belfast and had free rein there, apart from the strange tour. It can certainly be a challenge if the subject is dark because you are dealing with trauma. It helps yourself to rest with as much information as possible to do justice to what you are trying to portray.

WHO Is your favorite character you played? Jessputnam
It was impossible for me to say it. I was lucky. I think it is clear with which character people associate me [Cook from Skins]But I don’t mind – it’s a huge compliment. I think by the time we showed up [the second iteration of characters in season three]We knew that we were on our way to something that felt culturally important. I am surprised that people are still talking to me about it, 15 years later.

You made your directing debut last year, Direct the video for Paul Weller is nothing. Are you a big fan of the Modfather? Verulamium Parkranger
Always been: the jam, the style council, are solo material. It was a huge honor. We shot it for three or four days and I loved every second. It made me hungry to do more. He originally asked me to be in one of his videos. Then I came down my hand and said, “I could direct one?” He obliged me and I tear myself.

I saw you in cat On a hot tin roof. How did the naked night after night perform? Kellyshero1970
There is a nude scene at the start of the piece and another at the end. The piece starts in the shower. It would be very strange to be in the shower with clothing. So I just accepted: I will be naked. You just burst on. But I think that for the audience, that will be met with the image that I am naked … I remember a few panting in the Matinese of the coach Trippers. They were not there after the interval.

What was it like to work with Danny Boyle on 28 years later? Top tramp
A dream come true. We have made two films – the sequel and the sequel to the sequel [28 Years Later: The Bone Temple]. Growing up, his work meant a huge amount for me. What his films have done for Cinema, British cinema and culture, is difficult to capture. On the set I was all eyes and ears, absolutely next to myself. He is there at the cameras, in the trenches. He is not on a hilltop that is fed blueberries. He is one of them and it’s all very immediately.

What Derby County Player Would you prefer to play in a biopic? I think the Marco Gabbiadini Story is worth telling (goals! Glory! Caravans! B&BS!) But that can be a bit for your time. Loumo
I love this question, man. I go for [the Italy striker] Fabrizio Ravanelli, for the glitter and glamor, as long as we have the [1996-97] Middlesbrough era. I expect the offer to come in now. That is usually how it works. I say something in the guardian, tongue in the cheek, then someone will write a script.
