When it comes to Jason Isaac, it may take a moment to think about who he is.
But if you talk about Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter series of movies, I believe that his face will immediately appear in everyone's mind.
Friends familiar with the European and American entertainment industry know that Jensen Isaac is a famous sexy male star. He was ranked 54th on Empire Magazine's 100 Sexiest Movie Stars list.
Today, we're going to do 10 things to get to know you more about Jason Isaac.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" >1, as a Jew, he did not have a happy life as a teenager</h1>
Jason Isaac moved to London with his family at the age of 11. However, it was at a time when the far-right national front was unleashing a wave of anti-Semitism.
In an interview with The Independent, Isaac recalled: "At that time, someone always hit them or smashed the glass of his house. When they were 16 years old in secondary school, FNI people would hand out leaflets in schools and follow them. ”
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="5" >2, his childhood was spent in Liverpool</h1>
Before the age of 11, Jason Isaac lived in Liverpool, England. But when he moved to London, people around him would laugh at his Liverpool accent, so he imitated the accent of London's East End.
He later studied law at the University of Bristol. At school, celebrity alumnus Hugh Grant is often discussed. It took Jensen Isaac to learn the local accent in just a week and joined the discussion with his classmates about Hugh Grant.
In an interview with Backstage, Isaac said, "Accent is both my weakness when socializing and my strength. ”
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="7" >3, he was plagued by alcoholism</h1>
Jason Isaac tweeted about getting rid of drug dependence and alcoholism.
The gist of the tweet was: 22 years ago, I decided to quit my dependence on drugs and alcohol. I've been sticking to it for decades, and the decision was so wise that I could successfully take control of my life. I must say that I could not change my life without everyone's help.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="9" >4, becoming an actor is something he didn't plan for</h1>
Jensen Isaac majored in law at university. In the eyes of outsiders, he is confident, handsome, excellent in achievements, and has great prerequisites for the future. But only Isaac himself knew, because of his Jewish background, he was out of place with his surroundings, which also led to his inner insecurity.
In an interview with Time magazine, Isaac said he was confused to see other people comfortably blend into their surroundings. He wondered how they did it. It wasn't until he once went to an audition half-drunk, half-conscious, that the moment he walked into the room, he suddenly realized that he should belong here completely.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="11" >5, starring in "Peter Pan" almost made him give up acting</h1>
In 2003, Jason Isaac starred as captain Hooke, the villain in the film Peter Pan. It's a big production, and someone said to Isaac — this movie will change your life.
However, after the release of the movie, it hit the street. This dealt a deep blow to Isaac's self-confidence.
He confessed in an interview with The Guardian that for a time the failed film brought his acting career to a halt. But he still wanted to open up later, "I should be grateful for everything I got, not upset about what I didn't get." To complain about oneself is to waste one's life. ”
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="13" >6, he enjoys filming on set</h1>
An important reason Jason Isaac likes acting is that he is very free on the set.
In an interview with The Independent, he said:
"If you go on set, you might think, 'Who's that idiot over there?' He was constantly joking, fooling around like a 5-year-old, even if he was stepped on by someone...'In fact, a lot of actors are like me, on the set, we can let ourselves go.'" ”
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15" >7, will not take any role for money</h1>
Jason Isaac's play path is very diverse, any type of role can be mastered, but there are some roles he will not take, even if the other party gives him more money.
Also in an interview with The Independent, he said, "There are jobs that make me a lot of money and make my family rich." However, after the release of the work, it will bring malignant effects, especially discrimination against women, which will affect everyone's words and deeds in some ways. ”
Of course, Isaac will not reject those deep villains because of maintaining his positive image.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="17" >8, almost missed Harry Potter</h1>
When Jason Isaac interviewed Harry Potter, he tried two roles, one for Lucius Malfoy and the other for Gilderoy Lockhart.
He himself didn't really want to play Lucius Malfoy, because he had already played the villain in "Peter Pan" and didn't want to play another one, and he really became a bad guy in the eyes of the children.
However, just after he declined, his godson, the children of his friends, his nieces and nephews, his nieces and nephews... Or advice, or requests, or warnings, in short, they all called him to take over the role of Lucius.
In an interview with the Liverpool Echo, Isaac recalled the story, laughing and saying, "I am so grateful to them that they proved how wrong my intuition was." ”
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="19" >9, singing is as sexy as it looks</h1>
Although Jason Isaac has not officially released an album, he has also had many opportunities to show his singing voice when he appears in TV series and movies.
In the 2001 film Last Minute, he sang Percy Sletch's classic "When a Man Falls in Love with a Woman" by Percy Sletch (an American male singer of the 1960s and 1970s).
As it turns out, his singing voice is magnetic and has the potential to be a professional singer.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="21" >10, daughters don't want to see dad's play</h1>
There was a celebrity dad who didn't seem to excite his daughters much.
Jason Isaac "poured bitter water" on the New York Post reporter, and his two daughters didn't even want others to know that their father was Lucius Malfoy.
When they heard that dad had participated in their favorite American drama "Sex Education", the two daughters were terrified. It wasn't until Isaac said he didn't have those big-scale scenes that they breathed a sigh of relief.
