Today is the 45th birthday of British actor Martin Freeman.
The fourth season of "Sherlock," which just finished filming last month, recently released the latest stills, and at this year's San Diego Comic-Con, the creators revealed that the fourth season will be the darkest season.
The main villain, Professor Mo Niang, Isleotti, is back in the limelight.
Sherlock, played by Curly Fu, and Watson, played by Martin, will face the biggest challenge.
Each season has only 3 episodes, so far it has aired 9 episodes of "Sherlock", based on the classic novel of Conan Doyle, and after it aired in 2010, it received unanimous praise from land, sea and air, with the first two seasons of Rotten Tomatoes scoring a perfect score, and the third season of Rotten Tomatoes 97%. The third season in 2014 averaged 11.82 million viewers, the highest-rated TV series in the UK since 2001.
The Los Angeles Times and Variety magazine commented on the wonderful story, the wit of the dialogue, the warmth of the actors' performances, and USA Today called it the best drama of the year!
However, for fans, one of the most basic feelings of the corrupt country is everyone's favorite!
(We're not a couple.) ）
If there is no Watson's obedience and faithfulness,
A roll with a very high IQ but a negative emotional intelligence score,
How can you successfully solve the case and turn the danger into a disaster?
No wonder that at the 66th Emmy Awards, the two won best actor and best supporting actor in miniseries and TV movies together, and the real hammer international certification.
In addition to being emotional, Martin's real-life counterpart, actress Amanda Abbington, played John Watson's wife, the later blackened Mary Morstan, in the third season.
In real life, this couple, who chose not to marry, held a wedding in the play.
The area of psychological shadow of the pleasurable blessing.
Born in Hampshire, England, Martin Freeman was the eldest of five children, his parents divorced at an early age, martin's father died of a sudden heart attack when he was 10 years old, and he returned to live with his mother. Martin had asthma as a child, but was very athletic, and was a member of the British National Youth Squash team between the ages of 9 and 14, touring the country.
The Martin family is very artistically germ-like, with older brother Tim being a member of the 80s pop music group Frazier Chorus and another older brother Jamie being a musician and website designer. Cousin Ben Norris is a comedian. He said, I can be an actor, which is not surprising at all. At the age of 14, he joined the local Youth Theatre and then studied at the Central School of Speech and Drama in London.
Martin's earliest well-known role was Tim Canterbury in the British version of "The Office", which began in 2001, which was not only well received in the United Kingdom, but also changed to a national version, martin also received nominations for best comedian at the British Academic Television Awards and two British Comedy Awards for best comedians for "The Office".
Martin said that after the broadcast of "The Office", everyone thought that I was a stand-up comedian, and the impression in the audience's subconscious would stay for a long time, and I didn't want to be the kind of actor who only played one kind of person in my life.
The success of the British version of "The Office" has brought Martin to hollywood attention, and the 2005 adaptation of the science fiction novel of the same name by British science fiction novelist Douglas Adams and the Anglo-American co-production film hitchhikers's guide to the galaxy, Martin plays the male protagonist, the homeless Englishman Asel Dent, shaking a lot of British baggage.
(Handed to me, I'm British and I know how to get in line.) ）
The film quickly grossed over 100 million after its release, and Martin became another signature actor exported from the UK to Hollywood, but he said, I didn't become an actor to be famous, I did it because I loved the job.
You may not know that Martin took two rounds of interviews to get the role of Watson. Mark Gatiss, one of the originals, told The Observer that finding watson's actor was more difficult than finding Holmes: You have to make the audience realize they're a pair of partners the moment they walk into the room.
And Curly Fu is the only Charlotte candidate (proud face) considered by the crew.
The pilot episode of the first season of "Detective Charlotte" was also killed by the BBC and remade!
(How can this be?) That's it. ）
He has also acted in "True Love Supreme", which countless people like.
Played the boat scene stand-in John, which was cut off when it was too dirty to be released.
(However, it can be seen in the unedited version.) ）
Martin had auditioned for a pedophile in Peter Jackson's "The Lovely Bones" and was unsuccessful. Stanley Tuzi got the role.
Because everyone always thinks that Martin is the best person to play a good person! Even he himself said that I became famous for playing a kind and decent role, which actually brought me a lot of shadows. 6 or 7 years ago, my choices were not as much as they are now, and I asked a very close friend: Am I a good actor? Or am I just stubbornly banging my head against the wall? I was already famous at the time, but I still doubted myself until I got another job.
Later I told myself that whether you were making TV or movies, you had to convince the audience that the moment you were performing was really happening.
(Hahahahahaha
Released in 2012, "The Hobbit" tells the story of Bilbo Baggins, the uncle of The Lord of the Rings protagonist Frodo Baggins, who joins an adventurous team of 13 dwarves to reclaim the lonely mountain, the treasure of the dwarves, led by The Gray-robed Gandalf.
When director Peter Jackson first invited Martin to star, Martin decided to quit "The Hobbit" because the filming schedule conflicted with the timing of the second season of "Sherlock". But Jackson, after watching auditions for other actors, decided that Martin was the only candidate, and finally decided to adjust the shooting schedule - Martin spent four months shooting "The Hobbit", then took two months off to return to the UK to shoot "Sherlock", and then returned to New Zealand to continue shooting after filming.
The director didn't pick the wrong person, and both "The Hobbit: the Unintended Journey" grossed $1 billion worldwide in 2012 and "The Hobbit: the battle of the five armies" grossed $950 million worldwide, surpassing the first two "The Lord of the Rings" in 2014.
Last year, Martin went on "Saturday Night Live" and made a short film called "Hobbit Office" hahahahahaha.
Also last year, the 44-year-old Martin finally got his wish to play a bad guy. He collaborated with Oscar-winning actor Billy Bob Thornton on the Coen Brothers' film adaptation of the black humor crime series Fargo of the same name. Martin plays Lester, a 40-year-old insurance salesman, whose life is very unsatisfactory, and his wife feels that she is in a pocket, and after accidentally encountering Malvaux, a serial killer played by Billy Bob Thornton, she is successfully blackened.
Unable to bear his wife any longer, he became a wife killer.
The story is set in Minnesota, and Martin has worked hard to learn the Minnesota accent. He said that my ears are still sensitive and I can learn things faster, but this is far from enough, I hope to do it until it is right, not hastily coping. I spoke with the accent of the play all day while filming, and you had to turn it into a habit, into your muscle memory.
The first season of "Ice Storm" aired on Rotten Tomatoes by 98%, and Martin was nominated for Best Actor in a Miniseries with an Emmy Award, a Golden Globe Award, and a Critics' Choice Award. Martin admits that the role of Hobbit made his dream come true. He said, without Hobbit, I might have to break through several levels. But now he can proudly say: you, Lao Tzu has won the British Academy Award!
In real life, he and his partner Amanda have been dating since 2000, giving birth to a son and a daughter, and they are so beautiful. He said I wish my father had a chance to meet my children and I wanted to drink with him until I could. But my family is very proud of me, and that's great.
Martin doesn't use computers much, likes to mail scripts home, and doesn't like to play with celebrities. He said I wanted some of myself to stand out, but I had to keep my private life. He loves music and loves collecting vinyl records.
He told The Guardian that his ideal day was to wake up late in the morning, have breakfast with his family at his favorite restaurant, drive to the beach, visit a record store, eat fish and chips, and then go home to watch a DVD.
It doesn't sound "bad" at all!
That's it today, we'll see you tomorrow!
