Hello everyone,

With regards to the previous entry, here I have the Behind the Scenes of the photoshoot for InStyle UK. Unfortunately, Tom is not interviewed, but you do see Tom doing his thing. Also, thanks to stumetom for linking me to this!

Have Your Say!

Edit: After letting Glamour know of the typo error (read below), they have made the amendments! End edit.

Hello everyone,

Tom has been listed in Glamour Magazine’s list of Faces to Watch In 2010, and this is what they had to say about him:

Tom Sturridge – Age: 24

After Jamie Bell [Hayden Christensen] stole the lead role off Tom for Jumper back in 2006, he finally managed to cause a Hollywood buzz last year, shaking things up with The Boat That Rocked. Being bestfriends with Robert Pattinson has helped him to secure a slot on girl’s bedroom walls. This year he stars in Waiting For Forever. Let’s hope he gets his kit off.

I am not sure why they had said Jamie Bell stole the role, but I took the liberty and replaced Mr Bell with Hayden Christensen, cos it was he who replaced Tom.

I believe this is a new photo along with this new interview from when Tom did Teen Vogue:

It almost wasn’t a job,” Tom Sturridge says about his upcoming 1966-set film, Pirate Radio. “We’d wake up every morning at six–Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix blasting over the speakers on the boat–sail into the middle of the ocean, and watch the sun come up.” Tom plays Carl, an unruly teenager who, after being expelled from prep school, is sent to live with his godfather (Bill Nighy) on a rusty trawler in the North Sea. It’s hardly punishment, though: The ship, which broadcasts an illegal but hugely popular rock ‘n’ roll station, is helmed by a motley crew of rambunctious DJs (Philip Seymour Hoffman, whom Tom calls “a god,” stars as the leader of the pack).

The 23-year-old Brit, who has appeared in Vanity Fair and Being Julia, shares some similarities with his character, Carl: Tom dropped out of high school and never graduated. “I hated it so much,” he says. “It just wasn’t for me.” Such antipathy towards academia also helped him get into character recently; he has spent the past couple months garnering brilliant reviews as the lead in the U.K. production of Punk Rock, a play about rebellious private-schoolers that’s been compared to Broadway hits The History Boys and Spring Awakening.

Before taking the stage for Punk Rock, Tom lived in a tent with his aunt and cousins in Botswana, couch-surfed around Manhattan and Los Angeles, and filmed the indie romantic comedy Waiting for Forever–which is expected to debut at Sundance this January. In it, he stars as Will, a homeless street performer in pursuit of the girl (Rachel Bilson) he’s loved since he was six. “I had to learn how to juggle to play that part,” he says, laughing. “I thought I was good, but it turns out I was really terrible.”

It seems he may be having his Hollywood moment, but Tom–with his almost studied nonchalance and carefree disposition–is certainly taking it all in stride. “Some people are defined by what they do,” he says while tugging at his mop of thick, dark hair. “But for me, it’s just a gig, a few months here and there. I spend the majority of my life not acting.”

And dont forget to keep checking back to the video interview post I made a while ago, Im still compiling them as I find them! Heres a link if it disappears ;D at LEAST check out the last one, its my favourite and very funny!

I did get attacked in the theater the other day, which was surreal. Yes, by middle-aged critics. No. There are these coaches of girls from the school. I think the coach journey was very long and they were a bit wired. They literally broke down the stage door and, genuinely, 70 girls charged and threw me up against a wall. They stole my hat and my bag. The Royal Exchange is a bit of an old-school theater. They have no sort of notion of this type of situation. They had no idea what to do.
