JUDE LAW Jude Law was born on December 29, 1972 – just 18 months after his sister, Natasha. The family lived in a big Victorian house in Southeast London. Jude’s parents were always taking their children to the theater, and after years of participating in youth theater groups, Jude dropped out of school at age 17 to join the cast of a British soap opera and pursue a career as an actor. Law first grabbed the attention of Broadway audiences in 1995, with his Tonynominated performance in Jean Cocteau’s Indiscretions. But it wasn’t until his Oscarnominated performance as Dickie Greenleaf in Minghella’s The Talented Mr. Ripley that Jude Law entered the ring as a major player. Key roles in Spielberg’s A.I. Artificial Intelligence and Sam Mendes’s Road to Perdition followed. Meanwhile, Law, who can now command $12 million a movie, continued to accept roles in small-budget productions and to work in the theater. For his next project – a new adaptation of All the King’s Men, a novel about political corruption in Louisiana- Law will act alongside Sean Penn, one of Hollywood’s most politically outspoken actors. “These are very important times” Law says. “It’s a time when everyone has to ask, “What do I want to happen in the world, and what do I want for my children?” Timely for a film like All the King’s Men” Jude Law actor británico, nominado 2 veces a los Óscar. drop out abandonar to join unirse cast reparto soap opera telenovela pursue continuar grab captar performance actuación budget presupuesto alongside junto a outspoken franco, sin pelos en la lengua Timely oportuno CUESTIONES 1.- Answer the following questions.
