Right, movie buffs – here’s your chance to get proper nosey with one of the most versatile actors of our time. Guy Pearce, the chameleon-like legend who’s gone from Ramsay Street heartthrob to Hollywood heavyweight, is ready to spill the tea on his incredible 40-year career.
Remember when you first spotted Guy in Neighbours? (For me, it was during those classic late-night UK repeats, sprawled on the sofa with a packet of Hobnobs). Now he’s absolutely smashing it in the hard-hitting prison drama Inside, proving yet again why he’s one of the most fascinating actors of his generation.
But here’s the thing – how does someone go from playing Mike Young in Neighbours to becoming Christopher Nolan’s go-to guy for mind-bending narratives? Whether you’re still buzzing about his turn as Leonard in Memento (backwards storytelling – proper clever, that) or you caught him breathing fire in Iron Man 3, Pearce has probably popped up in more of your favourite films than you realize.
Fancy this for range: One minute he’s strutting through the outback in heels as Felicia in Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (still an absolute banger of a film), the next he’s bringing the heat as Ed Exley in LA Confidential. He’s done everything from space horror in Prometheus to period drama in The King’s Speech – and let’s not forget his brief but brilliant appearance in The Hurt Locker.
Now’s your chance to get those burning questions answered. Maybe you’re curious about his preparation for Inside? Or perhaps you want to know what it’s really like working with some of cinema’s finest directors? Did the Time Machine actually make sense to him? (Because I’m still scratching my head over that one, if I’m honest).
