Tudors 3 premieres in New Zealand

An intriguing article by the New Zealand Herald was recently released.

Jonny says:
"I look like a pretty intense person," reasons the actor. "I've got big eyes and so they seem more intense than they really are. And for some people it's, you know, almost harrowing. But I try my best to be as convivial as possible."

Tudor Diet

Jonny talks about the eating and drinking habits during Tudor times in an article by the Winnipeg Sun:

"The average man would imbibe 22 litres of alcohol per week, the average woman 15. So when you see portraits from that time and everybody looks a little worn? That's why they look worn."

We hear you Sherri!

Sherri Shepherd of The View said in a recent interview:

“I love the gorgeous men who come through and that I get to put my hand on their thighs. The guys love it. Robert Downey Jr. put my head in his lap. And they kiss you. What kind of job do I have? Every man I love turns around and gives me a kiss. When [Barack] Obama showed up, I was like, this is it, I am done. And Jonathan Rhys Meyers? I am like a predator cougar on that boy. I will hurt you.”

I know the feeling, Sherri! LOL

Favorite TV show, singer and crush!

Jonny shared with TV Guide Magazine:

...that he "hates computers" and only uses it for iTunes. "I'm into world music," he said. "Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan from Pakistan is the greatest singer of all time."

But he admitted that he "loves television" and his favorite show is Law & Order: SVU. "Mariska Hargitay," he says, placing his hand on his heart, "is my crush."

More interviews

Jonny talks Tudors with SheKnows.com, saying about Henry's relationship with Jane Seymour:

"He felt very comfortable with Jane Seymour. After Anne Boleyn, it was like, 'Whew. I can use a break.' Jane Seymour was the break. She was the ray of light. She was the ice in your soft drink."

We get some insight from an article with the NY Daily News into how Jonny handles the intense shooting schedule of the Tudors, and what he was reading on his recent vacation. He also reveals that he writes poetry and may consider publishing it when he's "a lot older."

Tudors buzz

Here are two new articles about the upcoming Tudors season:

First, from The Futon Critic, an interview with Michael Hirst. Among other things, he talks about Jonny's development as an actor in the series:
"...I think this is his series. This is when Johnny is incredibly powerful. Even if you look at the posters [over the three seasons] you can see that he's changed from a boy to a man. There's a wonderful scene when he goes into the Tower of London to talk to the leader of the Pilgrimage and he looks like the Godfather. Now you're beginning to see how dangerous he is. The future wives have got to be a little careful."

Also, from the Philadelphia Daily News, Jonny answers questions about the 3 new wives this season and says that "every day's a school day."

Dancing with JRM?

Kristina Rihanoff of BBC One's Strictly Come Dancing (the UK version of Dancing With the Stars) has expressed interest in Jonathan as her next dance partner.

She told the Daily Record:

"I have a dream partner, but I don't think he's ever going to do Strictly," she said. "It's the actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers, I like him. It doesn't matter to me whether he's any good at dancing, I can teach him."

I think he would do great on a show like this! But of course I'd rather it be the US version...otherwise I'd have to find a way to see the overseas episodes. ;-)

"Princess Mary" looks up to JRM

Sarah Bolger, who plays Princess Mary in The Tudors, told Herald.ie that Jonathan is like her "big brother" on the set.

"He's so much fun on-set and he always has me in fits of laughter," she said. "I love the show so much."


Lucky girl!

Sarah, like Jonny, is an IFTA nominee. The awards will be given out this Saturday, Feb. 14.
