Harvey Weinstein’s ex Georgina Chapman goes red carpet official with Adrien Brody
WHEN Adrien Brody became the youngest winner of a Best Actor Oscar at 29, one of Hollywood’s biggest stars should have been born.In fact around a decade ago it had become so hard to get the right role that the 51-year-old American — whose hit movies include The Grand Budapest Hotel and Peter Jackson’s King Kong remake — gave up acting to become a painter.
"I gave up my place to live. I wasn’t living with my girlfriend any more. I sold my car. Everything was in storage.It could have been a case of too much, too soon for Adrien, when his Oscar win left him overwhelmed. Adrien recently confessed that he “hadn’t been asked” back and that the show’s creator, Lorne Michaels, “wasn’t happy with me embellishing”.None of that seemed to hurt his career at the time, because he grabbed the romantic lead role in £500million blockbuster King Kong.He dined on ants and worms while making Wrecked, learned ventriloquism for Dummy and joined a strike in preparation for Ken Loach’s Bread And Roses.
Despite being busy with acting, few of Adrien’s roles won critical acclaim, apart from Wes Anderson’s 2014 comedy The Grand Budapest Hotel.
