I searched but no thread. I think he's gorgeous and would have been the perfect Robert Langdon in The Da Vinci Code. He was the only thing I liked in Gosford Park, Enigma or Henry James' Golden Bowl. He was great in Emma and captured Dean Martin perfectly in Martin and Lewis.
He's currently filming a movie about Henry VIII starring Jonathan Rhys-Meyers and Sam Neill. He just finished a film with Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig, called The Visiting, about an mysterious disease that turns out to be an alien epidemic. Sounds dubious but he's a great actor, as is obviously Nicole Kidman.
Talk about this hugely under-rated actor here.

I was so shocked that he could sing, and so well, in Gosford Park.
He has sold out a bit I think, at least in my books. I don't hold him in the high esteem I do other Brit actors. Don't know why.

Do we have to take this outside?! I have no idea who he is really, but he was fantastic in Gosford Park.

Robert Altman's films just irritate me. But Jeremy Northam? Wonderful! (Am I spared now from putting on my boxing gloves? ;D ) |

Thought he had great chemistry with Sandra Bullock in The Net.
Also liked him in something others propbably won't have heard of - a TV film with Joely Richardson and Anna Friel called The Tribe.
O m GOD yes he would have been great in the DV Code. Especially with Auderey Tatou. But then any one would ahve been better than Tom Hanks who i hate.

Thought he had great chemistry with Sandra Bullock in The Net. I agree. Whenever Happy, Texas is on Comedy Central, I am glued to the tv. |

Jeremy Northam is my movie husband!!! And yes, I have a very active imagination!
I first noticed him in the Net (he's SO young looking in that), and I think he's aging well. I noticed that the movie "The Winslow Boy" hasn't been metioned, well worth renting if you haven't seen it because JN is perfect and owns the role.
After that, I agree that "Happy, Texas" is something I have seen probably 10 times, it's the polar opposite of The Winslow Boy, it was fun to see him in a comedy. I'd like to see him get more roles like Colin Firth has had, but in time perhaps he will.
I even suffered through that movie he did with Mira Sorvino, something about giant cockroaches taking over the city...but that one I could only do once!

Mimic - what a POS - but Jeremy wasn't dragged down by it.
He was wonderful in The Winslow Boy, sang beautifully in Gosford Park and will always me "my Mr. Knightley" as Emma would say. :-)

He and Ewan were the best thing in Emma. I loved him as Dean Martin. Great actor, definitely under-rated, pretty hot too. Can't wait for the alien pic with Kidman and Craig.

I love everything I've ever seen him in. Hasn't been mentioned yet, but An Ideal Husband was a movie I really enjoyed and he was great in it (as was Rupert Everett). Also, he was in a movie about Enigma (was it called Engima? can't remember) the code cracking team in WWII England. Also there was a movie (I think) he was in with Julian Wadham; it was wonderful because I love them both. Not a clue as to what it was. Off to look.
