I have added some new photos of Felicity Jones to the gallery. Go there to enjoy the pics!
Who hasn’t dreamed of going up to the sky and touching the clouds? In 1962, James Glaisher and his pilot, Henry Coxwell, went up to a record-setting 36,000 feet. The journey undertaken by these scientists is dramatized in the new film, The Aeronauts. Directed by Tom Harper, The Aeronauts stars Eddie Redmayne as Glaisher and Felicity Jones as a fictional character, Amelia Wren, who is based on a composite of several real-life balloonists, including Sophie Blanchard and Coxwell himself.
The Aeronauts is at once an intimate story about two people trying to find their place in the world, a celebration of the scientists who push the boundaries of what is possible, and a harrowing thrillride with some of the most creative and amazing action of any film this year. Jones and Redmayne are perfectly paired as misfits on a mission to prove themselves to anyone and everyone who ever doubted them, while the jaw-dropping special effects speak for themselves.
While promoting The Aeronauts, Felicity Jones sat down with Screen Rant to discuss her work on the film, from reuniting with her co-star from The Theory of Everything to tossing a dog out of a hot air balloon (don’t worry, the pooch is fine!). She discusses the pressures of acting in such a confined space as a balloon basket and the challenges that come from filming action scenes while surrounded entirely by blue screens.
The Aeronauts is out in theaters now, and releases on Amazon Prime streaming on December 20.
I know you shot some stuff up in the air in an actual balloon, but I imagine a lot of the movie is you and Eddie in a box surrounded by blue screens.
Yes. It was an interesting juxtaposition, actually. They built a balloon for real, hand-made, that we took on a flight on our first day, doing these helicopter shots, wide shots of us in the initial scenes where they’re taking off. So we kind of went from this incredible, absolutely real experience to something that was Eddie and I in a blue room with blue walls and blue carpet for hours and hours in a very small space. We’re definitely an experience in extremes.
I really don’t like to talk about private life of Felicity Jones, but I think this is a good new to share with all the fans. Congratulations!!!
The ‘On the Basis of Sex’ actress and ‘The Uninvited’ director tied the knot in July 2018.
Felicity Jones and Charles Guard are expecting their first child together, a rep for Jones confirms to The Hollywood Reporter.
The Oscar-nominated actress and the British filmmaker, best known for his 2009 psychological horror movie The Uninvited, dated for three years before tying the knot on July 2018 at Sudeley Castle in the Cotswolds, Oxfordshire, in England.
Amid her expectant news, Jones stepped out Wednesday in New York City alongside Eddie Redmayne for the premiere of their new film, The Aeronauts.
Jones, best known for playing Ruth Bader Ginsburg in On the Basis of Sex and Jyn Erso in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, has been private about her life with Guard.
Yet during a December 2014 interview with The Telegraph, the actress opened up about her outlook on love.
“I am definitely romantic, and I love romantic stories — that’s why I keep making romantic movies. It’s funny how seeing a love story never gets boring, because it’s the dream, isn’t it?” she said at the time. “It’s the dream to have a true connection with another human being.”
Felicity Jones attends the premiere of “The Aeronauts” at SVA Theater on December 04, 2019 in New York City. You can go to the gallery to take a look to the photos.
Three days before “The Aeronauts” opens in theaters, Felicity Jones will appear on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”
NBC confirms the Oscar-winning actress for the December 3 edition of its flagship talk show. She will be the lead interview guest.
The episode will also feature a chat with Tomi Adeyemi and a performance by Burna Boy. [Source]
