Étiquette : gillian anderson

hi! do you have a link of when gillian said working with david had been like an abusive marriage (2005)? thanks love your blog!

No, because the actual quote is “forced marriage”, not “abusive” which is completely different. What she says is actually very sweet and thoughtful about their relationship:

“David and I are closer now than we have ever been. Look, when you are working with somebody for such an intense period of time, of course you don’t want to see them outside work. I didn’t want to see the girl who was doing my hair every day, either. There are inherent complications in such forced marriages. In other countries the men get to beat the women; thankfully, that doesn’t fly in America. It was an important time for both of us. So we worked a lot of things out together in a psychological and metaphysical way.”

gillian won’t get a part in the crown when she’s up against all those other actresses, and i doubt she’d do a leading role in a show that takes 9 months to shoot (per claire foy the other day at the radio times chat). gillian is too sculpted and fine-boned to play the queen anyway. i think either olivia colman or emily watson would suit the part.

Maybe! Or maybe she’ll take a smaller part. We’ll see. It won’t be officially announced before a few months anyway, so we’ll have to be patient and a lot can happen since it’s announced.

But personally, I totally can see her taking this part. It would be a big commitment, but it would be for two seasons maximum. They film in London and in Vienna, so it would allow her to stay with her family while working everyday for one of the biggest Netflix show.
Also, she’d admitted herself she wouldn’t mind receiving an Oscar, and seeing what’s happening to Claire Foy now, I think it could be a good tremplin for her to get bigger leading roles in Hollywood and finally get an Oscarable role.
But it’s just my opinion… 🙂

I think that GA’s appearance in « The Crow » is not a proof that she’s not dating PM…I’m not saying she is, but we also can’t say that she wouldn’t do that, because, frankly, we can’t be sure of anything about her. After all, she’s « doing whatever the fuck she wants ».

True. But If she will indeed get a part on this show, I think she may clarify the situation because if not, journalists will go there on every interview, and speculate and it could be bad for her image. Accusing her of getting work done on her face is something, and we know that it affected her enough to tweet about it. So I’m sure she doesn’t want any paper, even if it’s only the crappy ones, to accuse her of couch-casting. As fans, we will know it’s not like that, but you can’t help journalists to go there, we all know that. 

So you’re saying that the only reason why Gillian would get a role on the crown is because she’s sleeping with peter? That’s degrading of her character and you are definitely NOT a gillian fan.

Didn’t I say the exact opposite actually? You may have noticed that I don’t believe at all she has any kind of personal relationship with Mr Morgan, hence if she’s getting that role, it’s due to her talent and who she is, and probably a little bit of networking yes, but there’s nothing bad in networking, anon. 

‘American Gods’: Gillian Anderson Talks Judy Garland, ‘Hannibal’ Reunion

“His pitch to me was probably a description of the opportunity of getting to embody some pretty extraordinary characters, and whether I was up for that challenge,” Anderson tells EW of reuniting with the Hannibal creator. “And that’s probably all I really needed to know. Even though I hadn’t read the book, I’m a fan of Neil Gaiman’s work, so ultimately it was those two things… no matter what it looked like on the page, it was going to be something that I wanted to be involved in.”
