Rupert Everett Then
Rupert Everett won a BAFTA for his breakthrough performance as Julian Mitchell in Another Nation in 1984. He played an openly homosexual pupil at a 1930s English school. He was renowned for playing bad guys, and his smoldering good looks helped him secure jobs in films throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Everett sought (unsuccessfully) to turn his popularity into a music career as a pop sensation with his song, Generation of Loneliness. But it was too late; the public still thought of him as a wonderful performer, and admirers disregarded his creative endeavors. He won his second BAFTA and his first Golden Globe for My Best Friend’s Wedding in 1997.
Rupert Everett Now
Rupert’s present look is fine since he no longer resembles the fresh-faced boy who once graced the silver screen. He is, however, still acting as regularly as he used to. This year, he starred in Tim Burton’s Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, and he previously acted in the Shrek flicks and the Chronicles of Narnia. He’s also dabbled in fiction, publishing two memoirs and a book. In addition, he has spoken out on a variety of political and social issues, including the legalization of prostitution and same-sex marriage. Clearly, there has always been more to this new Renaissance man than meets the eye.
