Emotional Anne Hathaway & Nicholas Galitzine Get Support From Producer Gabrielle Union at 'The Idea of You' SXSW Premiere

Amelia Gray is celebrating the release of her new Frame campaign with support from her family!

Alison Herman TV Critic It’s hard to get a handle on “Mary & George,” the 17th-century historical drama that premieres on Starz this week after last month’s initial run in the U.K. The tale of how the title characters (Julianne Moore and Nicholas Galitzine) enmeshed themselves in the court of King James I (Tony Curran) through George’s seduction is intricate enough on its own, packing a dizzying array of alliances, betrayals, breakups and reconciliations into seven 50-minute episodes.

Nicholas Galitzine opened up in a revealing interview with Variety.

Marc Malkin Senior Editor, Culture and Events Nicholas Galitzine may have told his parents that he has a lot of sex scenes in “Mary & George” with both women and men, but that didn’t keep things from getting awkward when his mom and dad were by his side at the series’ London premiere. “I was kind of in hysterics because there is nothing more uncomfortable than watching your son bed a number of characters even within the first few episodes,” the British actor, 29, tells me during a wide-ranging conversation on this week’s “Just for Variety” podcast.

It’s easy to appreciate the investment of time and effort that go into constructing any period piece, a balancing act between capturing the atmosphere of a bygone age and finding a middle ground equally satisfying to both the casual viewer and the history buff. And so, brimming with more than a handful of nods to spiritual siblings “The Tudors” and “The Favourite” both in tone and ambiance, the new STARZ limited series “Mary & George” finds the right mix and a seat at the table with relative ease.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Anne Hathaway revealed in her new Vanity Fair cover story that she was told she had zero sex appeal when she was a young actor just starting out in Hollywood. Not that she ever bought into the claim: “I was like, ‘I’m a Scorpio. I know what I’m like on a Saturday night,’” she said.

Anne Hathaway is getting real about which movies she chooses to star in!

Given some of the star-studded titles that have closed out SXSW in previous years, a romantic comedy that could best be described as Harry Styles Wish Fulfillment might seem like an odd choice to round out the festival. But “The Idea of You,” a Michael Showalter adaptation of Robinne Lee’s book of the same name, proves that romantic comedies, when done well, are every bit as deserving of the red carpet rollout.

Nicholas Galitzine is opening up about his chemistry with Anne Hathaway in their new movie The Idea of You!

In Michael Showalter’s The Idea of You, based on the novel by Robinne Lee, Amazon/MGM brings to the screen a narrative that tantalizes with the prospect of exploring the complexities of love, age disparity, and the pursuit of happiness in the digital age. Anchored by Anne Hathaway’s Solene, a single mother and art gallery owner, and Nicholas Galitzine’s Hayes Campbell, a young pop star from the fictional band August Moon, the film sets its sights on charting the course of an unconventional romance, but the script muddles it all up to produce a somewhat funny, somewhat entertaining, albeit overly long romantic comedy.

Selome Hailu At the first moment of physical contact between Anne Hathway and Nicholas Galitzine in “The Idea of You” — a light touch of the hands — the crowd at the film’s SXSW world premiere completely lost it. By the time the actors were kissing, the gasps, shrieks and applause were deafening. Hathaway was overcome with emotion as she took the stage for a post-screening Q&A at Austin’s Paramount Theater.

Caroline Brew editor Nicholas Galitzine recently addressed the comparisons between Harry Styles and Galitzine’s character in “The Idea of You,” where he plays the 24-year-old lead singer of a popular boy band who falls in love with Anne Hathaway’s character — a 40-year-old single mom. “It’s funny because it’s not a comparison that I’ve ever made,” Galitzine told Variety’s Marc Malkin at the Vanity Fair Oscars Party. “But people really like to make it.
