Jude Law Says Becoming Henry VIII for Firebrand Took Months

Jude Law opened up to Us Weekly about the ‘very long, slow’ process of channeling Henry VIII in ‘Firebrand’

Law, 51, described the “very long, slow” process of becoming the royal while speaking with Us Weekly exclusively at the film’s Tribeca Film Festival premiere on Tuesday, June 11. “Growing the beard, we planned it very carefully, Jenny Shircore and I,” he explained. “We decided early on I didn't want to wear prosthetics, I didn't want to wear a mask.”

It took four to five months for them to get it right, Law added, but it was a “satisfying” day when they finally did. “I think over the past few years all of us have seen him taking on some pretty remarkable roles where he really does transform himself, and this was yet another step,” she shared. “Of course, he had this big beard that covered part of his face. But just to see how he physically embodied him was pretty remarkable when I saw him walk on set on the first day, it was quite daunting.”
