Director Karim Aïnouz discusses emFirebrand/em, starring Jude Law and Alicia Vikander, in this interview.
The Big Picture Brazilian filmmaker Karim Aïnouz admits that the Tudor England historical drama Firebrand isn't exactly in his typical wheelhouse. He tells Collider's Steve Weintraub that the story of King Henry VIII and his final wife, Katherine Parr, played by Jude Law and Alicia Vikander, was "a big challenge for to imagine how to tell a story that was very far removed from experience.
Release Date June 21, 2024 Director Karim Ainouz Cast Jude Law , Alicia Vikander , Eddie Marsan , Erin Doherty Runtime 120 minutes Main Genre History Writers Henrietta Ashworth , Jessica Ashworth , Rosanne Flynn , Elizabeth Fremantle Expand COLLIDER: If someone has actually never seen anything you've directed before, what is the first thing you'd like them to watch and why?
AÏNOUZ: I think it was a movie called Mariner of the Mountains. It's an essay film that I did in 2020. It was a movie that we started. It's a mix between documentary and fiction. It’s a very autobiographical film. When I started, it was very funny because I told the producers, I said, “I need like a year of editing,” and they're like, “This is impossible. It's out of line,” blah, blah, blah.
Jude Law Kept Rotting Odors on the Set of 'Firebrand' "With the smell, it was really, really wonderful what we achieved." I read that Jude had someone come in and keep odors on set to reflect the rotting skin on his body. Did he tell you he was gonna do this, and what was your reaction when he did it?
