Jude Law reflects on his lack of social media, noting, 'For me, one of the joys of acting is surprising people and playing roles that make them believe you're someone other than who you are.' He emphasizes the importance of maintaining a 'certain degree of mystery' to his persona, acknowledging that while people may think they know everything about him, they actually don't. This perspective informs his approach to acting and public image.
Discussing recent projects, Law expresses excitement for his upcoming works: 'I recently presented The Order at the Venice Film Festival, a thriller by Justin Kurzel inspired by a white supremacist terrorist group that terrorized the U.S. in 1983.' He feels that it's important to explore such themes, especially as the rise of far-right extremism resurfaces in contemporary society.
Receiving a Hollywood Walk of Fame star deeply touches Law, who admits, 'I feel honored, very excited... it leaves me speechless. It means a lot to me.' He reflects on the significance of this recognition, stating, 'I'm old enough to realize how long I've been working and it makes me feel proud.' This moment is not just a personal achievement but a reflection of his enduring contributions to cinema.
Regarding his collaboration on the film The Order, Law mentions, 'Zach Baylin, the screenwriter, read The Turner Diaries, the controversial 1978 novel, as part of the research. The plot references the rise of far-right ideologies, establishing parallels between the 1980s and today's political climate.' He believes the film can serve as a cautionary tale that highlights the consequences of extremism.
