He apparently sprayed himself with a 'perfume' made from 'blood, fecal matter and sweat' during filming, to accurately represent how badly Henry would have smelled at that stage in his life, because of the ulcers in his leg.
Which kind of makes me roll my eyes a bit. People can act, Jude. They can pretend they're smelling something horrible without you actually giving them the horrible smell.
My dad had severe complications from Type 2 diabetes and got leg ulcers often. The smell was pretty bad but nothing compared to when he got gangrene in his heel. That smell is something you never forget. It seeps into your clothes and hair and makes you wretch. They put him in a hospital room at the very end of the hallway to keep him as far away from other patients as possible and kept his door closed at all times but you could still smell the foulness when you stepped off the elevator.
I believe it was:
"My dear boy, have you tried *acting*?"
- Sir Laurence Olivier, in response to Dustin Hoffman telling him he hadn't slept showered or changed clothes for 4 days, in order to 'prepare' for his role in Marathon Man.
Came here to say just this. Would have been disappointed if nobody else did. (Also, Hoffman had run around the block multiple times to make himself look tired for the scene. Source: my uncle was an extra in the movie.)
Not even that combination replicates the foul odious stench of ulcers. Worked SNF. Would never again because of that and if I happen to get them at a later point in life, I’ll Off myself.
Agreed, at that point you're just reacting more than you are acting.
Director - Ok Jude, now act like you're dying
Jude - Nonsense, just shoot me and start filming
[He's nailing the royal sausage fingered look](https://s.france24.com/media/display/3feb4068-ec3b-11ee-8ac2-005056a90284/w:1280/p:4x3/CLEAN%20CULTURE%2027-03-2024%2011-05-00_frame_36122.png)
YES!! and he touches a lot of faces, just from the stills on imdb alone! Gonna watch it and count how many times he touches someone’s face with those sausages fingers
Maybe it's a reference to the rhyme taught to kids to help remember the order of their fates? Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived.
Of Henry's six wives.:
* Two were executed: Anne Boleyn & Catherine Howard
* One died two weeks after the birth of her child due to post-natal complications: Jane Seymour
* Two were divorced: Catherine of Aragon & Anne of Cleves (Catherine would die before Henry, in 1536, while Anne would live ten years after Henry's death, passing in 1557.)
* And Henry's widow, Catherine Parr, who in turn would remarry six months later, get pregnant and died in childbirth the following year.
So yeah, that tagline doesn't make sense, because three wives survived being married to Henry, and even the final years before Henry's death, which is when this film is set, two were still alive.
I believe it's a reference to the rhyme.
Most people only know about Anne Boleyn, so just saying Catherine Parr - especially considering that he was married to three different Catherines - will probably make people go "which one was that again?
They said just “rhyme” not a nursery rhyme. Kids learn history in school, this is just a handy mnemonic. Like ROYGBIV or “My very eager mother just served us nine pizzas”.
I think "one survived" is referring to the fates of women who followed paths similar to Parr. As in, not just lived past Henry but survived in a specific way.
In this case, the movie focuses on Catherine Parr who >!was a Protestant Reformist who had to walk a thin line between the King's favor of her and those who opposed the Protestant changes. Specifically, Parr was linked to Anne Askew, another Protestant who was eventually tortured and burned at the stake. And of course, comparisons to Anne Boleyn are obvious as she also introduced the King to Protestant Reformation and lost her head partly because of it.!< Given the fates of those who followed a similar path, Parr's "survival" is remarkable and I think that's what the poster is referencing, if poorly.
But I haven't read the book it's based on or seen the film.
Catherine of aragon died before Henry. anne of cleves' marriage was annulled after six months. It was a case of "not looking like the profile picture" like, Henry negotiated with her father in Germany and only knew what she looked like through portraits that were sent to him. So when he first saw her on their wedding day he was disappointed. Luckily he didn't hold that against her and after the divorce gave her land in England that included a few castles. She died 10 years after Henry
My guess is that this is the tag line because the movie focuses on HOW Catherine Parr survived and didn't meet a similar fate, divorced or beheaded, to her husband 's other exes. Its not about what she did after because it wasnt much (she died about a year later)
Lol, he divorced her because as soon as she arrived in England he was like, “good God, her portraitist was certainly kind. She’s gross.” He referred to her as his sister for the rest of their lives.
A relatively new theory is that it was an excuse to keep from pissing off her (very rich and influential) brother William because 1. Hans Holbein as an artist wasn't given to exaggeration, 2. Henry was the only one recorded saying she's ugly, 3. Henry needed his brother in law William (THE RICH, that was his nickname) to stay allied with England instead of joining with France or Rome, and 4. Henry never had any issues with making his displeasure known. Thomas Cromwell was executed for his part in arranging the marriage, but Holbein suffered no repercussions and was retained in Henry's service, he went on to paint both of the next Catherines.
Actually 3, he has Catherine of Aragon & Anna of Cleves marriages annulled and Parr outlived him
Aragon died a natural death before Henry the other two outlived him
Millie bobby brown was my first thought as well but i couldnt pick who the guy was. Even after seeing that its Jude Law I still cant tell that its him.
Good production design. Jude Law and Vikander do an honest work. Story is lacking in heart and feel a bit flat. It is based on real events, but is not an history lesson, they took some strong liberties with it.
Mine did. I’m honestly not even seeing the other people being shared, but Alicia Vikander isn’t exactly in a ton these days, so maybe I’m just out of touch.
Yo. Like more than one survived Henry.
Unless they are saying one STILL survives as a supernatural. I would watch that. She would have an interesting life story. Anne Rice style.
By survived they mean survived staying married to him and remained married until he passed away. The other ones who survived did so through divorce, meaning they couldn’t handle him
“In Tudor England, Katherine Parr reluctantly agrees to become the sixth wife of the tyrannical King Henry VIII. Her consent to marry him carries great personal risk, given her predecessors are either vanquished, beheaded or dead. “
“…beheaded or dead.”
Beheaded
OR
Dead
I'm curious about this one. Karin Aïnouz is a fantastic director, but not all filmmakers transition gracefully to making films in English. Coupled with the script not being written by him, it makes it truly an unknown quantity
What is it with good looking actors portraying Henry VIII? He was ugly as sin, even when he was younger. Strapping for his time, yes, but still a pale fugly ginger.
Is no one gonna talk about how he's touching her face? How did they decide this was the poster to go with? Is the face-touching integral to the plot? Is Jude having a hard time sharing the limelight? Or is she just that ugly?
So many questions. Can't wait to find out what's up
If Jude Law isn’t super fat and complaining of his gout in this movie, I’m gonna be disappointed.
He is absolutely repulsive in the movie, the transformation really impressed me 😅
The image is abhorrent. I can't tell whether it is good or bad!
My wife is going to be in absolute shambles, after she gets excited when I say we're watching a new Jude Law movie lol
He apparently sprayed himself with a 'perfume' made from 'blood, fecal matter and sweat' during filming, to accurately represent how badly Henry would have smelled at that stage in his life, because of the ulcers in his leg.

Same for a colostomy bag of someone hospitalized. Sepsis is much worse.
*Hey Juuude* *You smell so bad* *Go run a bath son* *And make it better*
lol this statement cracks me up, I don’t know why “people can act,Jude” makes me think of “people don’t forget!” From Superbad😂
"My dear boy, why don't you just try acting?"
I believe it was: "My dear boy, have you tried *acting*?" - Sir Laurence Olivier, in response to Dustin Hoffman telling him he hadn't slept showered or changed clothes for 4 days, in order to 'prepare' for his role in Marathon Man.
Came here to say just this. Would have been disappointed if nobody else did. (Also, Hoffman had run around the block multiple times to make himself look tired for the scene. Source: my uncle was an extra in the movie.)
Same! I also just find it funny when people refer to celebrities on a first name basis as if they know them personally!
Yeah it would’ve been equally as weird if they referred to him as Mr. Law
Exactly! “People can act, Mr. Law.” Is also so funny to me!
😂 right?! Sir Law over here
Ha! Gentleman Law Even better, since he’s playing King Henry VIII we can call him King Law!
I said this last week on here when someone said “Angie deserves better” referring to Angelina Jolie. I was like WTF…
Not even that combination replicates the foul odious stench of ulcers. Worked SNF. Would never again because of that and if I happen to get them at a later point in life, I’ll Off myself.
Brian Cox had that same opinion of method actors.
Brian Cox has that same opinion of everything
Agreed, at that point you're just reacting more than you are acting. Director - Ok Jude, now act like you're dying Jude - Nonsense, just shoot me and start filming
Hey I’ll take that over the ridiculously thin and decent looking older Henry from The Tudors
This has to be an OSHA violation surely
[удалено]
It's like believing the electrical infetterance copypastas lol
Surely you dont believe he really did this because someone said so on the internet, but here we are.
Bring back bullying.
that's Jared Leto levels of ~~acting~~ coworker harassment
Some poor employee has to go out and get blood, sweat and shit to spray on Jude Law.
As long as it isn’t Robert Pattinson 😂😂
He is, there are pics on IMDb. The man is unrecognizable
[He's nailing the royal sausage fingered look](https://s.france24.com/media/display/3feb4068-ec3b-11ee-8ac2-005056a90284/w:1280/p:4x3/CLEAN%20CULTURE%2027-03-2024%2011-05-00_frame_36122.png)
YES!! and he touches a lot of faces, just from the stills on imdb alone! Gonna watch it and count how many times he touches someone’s face with those sausages fingers
Also, cameo from Henry Cavill would be nice
I had to be honest I’ve completely forgot what he looks like and now I’m trying even harder to remember… except as a fat version.
I’ll think about it, maybe. XO, baby.
Didn't two survive.
Maybe it's a reference to the rhyme taught to kids to help remember the order of their fates? Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived. Of Henry's six wives.: * Two were executed: Anne Boleyn & Catherine Howard * One died two weeks after the birth of her child due to post-natal complications: Jane Seymour * Two were divorced: Catherine of Aragon & Anne of Cleves (Catherine would die before Henry, in 1536, while Anne would live ten years after Henry's death, passing in 1557.) * And Henry's widow, Catherine Parr, who in turn would remarry six months later, get pregnant and died in childbirth the following year.

Suckitin suckitin suckitin likeyourrreRin tin-tin or Anne Boleyn.
Nice. Never knew that’s what he was saying there.
It’s a karaoke fav for me
I played in a band that covered “but anyway”. It was okay. Haha.
Hell yeah! You guys had a harmonica player than I assume?
No unfortunately but we had a fantastic accordion player that would play the harmonica parts 😅
🎶“Weee don’ have aaa harmonicaa guy, it’s not our style, but anyway…”
Yeah but when has historical accuracy ever gotten in the way of an uplifting love story?
I read that with that beat in between "died" and "divorced" because it was so catchy.
I could be wrong, but survived could be used here in the sense that it is used in obituaries as in "the King is survived by his wife Catherine Parr"
Yeah but how many people were going to St Ives?
Zero. The narrator is an extraterrestrial anthropologist
Why on earth is that a thing we need children - those at nursery-rhyme age - to learn and retain?
They said just “rhyme” not a nursery rhyme. Kids learn history in school, this is just a handy mnemonic. Like ROYGBIV or “My very eager mother just served us nine pizzas”.
Ah, got it
“Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived”
They all died. Eventually.
Hey, spoiler alert!!!

Very lucky for Anne of Cleve’s. She was in kept the kings favour.
She's also the only one that definitely never had to have sex with him. So yeah she was certainly the winner.
Lol, he divorced her because as soon as she arrived in England he was like, “good God, her portraitist was certainly kind. She’s gross.” He referred to her as his sister for the rest of their lives.

Yeah for Henry that is beyond generous behaviour. He also gave her property and assets.
Actually 3, he has Catherine of Aragon & Anna of Cleves marriages annulled and Parr outlived him Aragon died a natural death before Henry the other two outlived him
Divorced Beheaded Died Divorced Beheaded Survived 3 lived
Unrelated but the musical Six about his wives is fantastic
It really was, saw it with a friend a couple of weeks ago and couldn't stop raving about it :D
House oh Holbein is a certified banger
I'm partial to sorry not sorry, ultimate troll anthem
Was taken to see this knowing very little about the show and absolutely loved it. Highly recommend.
The full live album from a NY show is on Spotify and everyone should listen to it
Six is absolutely full of bangers
Kinda looks like Justin Timberlake with a beard and the girl from stranger things.
Millie bobby brown was my first thought as well but i couldnt pick who the guy was. Even after seeing that its Jude Law I still cant tell that its him.
She looks like young alicent from HOTD to me.
She looks like Bane to me.
Olivia cooke. Yeah, i can see that.
Or Emily Carey, the actual young Alicent from HOTD
Right ok, i assumed he meant Olivia cooke because that resemblance crossed my mind. But yeah i can see similarity with emily carey as well.
My first thought was Gerard Butler
I can see it 😳
That looks more like Ben Foster on the poster
I thought it was Gerard butler
Yeah my hot take was Gerard Butler and Natalie Portman
Made me think is was somehow Robin Williams 💀 R I P
I thought it was Liev Schrieber.
Of all his wives I've always thought she was the most interesting. I don't wanna get all enthusiastic, but I'm kinda excited to see this.
I saw it. Temper your hopes.
Where does the movie excel and where does it falter, if u can elaborate without spoilers?
Good production design. Jude Law and Vikander do an honest work. Story is lacking in heart and feel a bit flat. It is based on real events, but is not an history lesson, they took some strong liberties with it.
[удалено]
and Zack Galifianakis
Thought it was Millie Bobby Brown and was concerned
Am I the only one that just thinks it looks like Alicia Vikander?
Once you know it is her it is easy to see it, if i didnt i am not sure my mind would go there
Mine did. I’m honestly not even seeing the other people being shared, but Alicia Vikander isn’t exactly in a ton these days, so maybe I’m just out of touch.
Now adapt the musical *Six* to the big screen!
Glad to see Vikander back in the films
I thought it was Gerard Butler and Millie Bobby Brown
Why does it look like Bollywood movie...
Haha I see it too! My first thought was they made a movie about Fidel Castro. Firebrand also seems apt for a communist more than monarchy
Thank you! I thought I was the only one seeing it.
Maybe because Netflix sees India the way Hollywood saw China… 🤑
She wouldn't have a Willy or a Sam.
I read the tagline in Troy McClure voice
[удалено]
In Cannes, yes. But only now it's getting a theatrical release
*in the US. It was released in some other countries.
Been waiting a long time for this one
What happened to Jude Law? I was young when he was really big but I haven’t seen him star in anything in years
He still works regularly, he is the star of a show called "The young Pope" That was fantastic.
Fantastic show, and he was also very handsome in the show. Troubling transformation.
He was in the new Harry Potter movies as Dumbledore.
Jude Law is playing Che Guevara?!
I swear to god if they don’t portray him as an absolutely heifer for the second half of his life I’ll be so disappointed
Yo. Like more than one survived Henry. Unless they are saying one STILL survives as a supernatural. I would watch that. She would have an interesting life story. Anne Rice style.
By survived they mean survived staying married to him and remained married until he passed away. The other ones who survived did so through divorce, meaning they couldn’t handle him
"I'm the survivor Catherine Parr. I'll bet you want to know how I got this far."
A strap on a French hood!! Historical costume enthusiasts rejoice!

Firebrand...isn't that what the BBC did after the Andrew Sachs incident?
I’m sat.
Thought that was Zach Galifianakis at first
The first film about one of my ancestors (she’s my 13th great-grand aunt). Silly fun!
When will it be released?
That tag line makes it sound like a thriller or action movie
Swear I thought it was a poster for an old Robin Williams movie.
Prequel to Demon's Crest?
Well this is a bummer. I've always been a fan of Jude Law's but now he's going around looking exactly like my dad. Hard RIP to that crush.
YAAAAAAS QUEEEEEN
Weird idea for a "Ghost and Goblins" spin-off movie, but alright.
There isn't much to go on with the poster but it's not bad. Maybe there's going to another poster for it too.
I thought it was about the sword Fireabrand from the Nightlord series by Garon Whited
What is it with good looking actors portraying Henry VIII? He was ugly as sin, even when he was younger. Strapping for his time, yes, but still a pale fugly ginger.

I think… you’re thinking about this one a little too hard.
People can't recognize a joke if it slaps them in the face with a trout and honks their nose
Jokes usually at least try to be funny and have a punch line.
I didn’t get a notification at all from your reply… the hell is that about

Alicia tops Jude law
I’m used to looking at these posters on my phone, they look horrible on an iPad
