CANNES — Matthew Goode is playing rough with a bevy of beauties including Bojana Novakovic, Rachel Griffiths, Essie Davis, Kerry Fox, Kate Beahan and Gia Carides in writer-director Jonathan Teplitzky’s “Burning Man.”
Goode plays Tom, an English chef with a chic restaurant on Bondi Beach trying to put his life and his relationship with his son back on track while surrounded by women.
Produced by U.K. producer Andy Paterson and Teplitzky, the film shoots on location in Sydney, with backing from Screen Australia, Screen NSW, Standard Chartered Bank and the Australian Producer Offset. Read the rest of this entry »
Just found this new photoshoot of Matthew and Sophie together, which was taken during the Orange British Academy Film Awards last month. I also added some old photos from the presentation of ‘Al sur de Granada’ in May 2002.
Actor Matthew Goode has said he was “blown away” to get offered a part in Ricky Gervais’s new film Cemetery Junction.
The comedy-drama is co-directed and written by Gervais and Stephen Merchant, and is a coming-of-age tale of three friends working in the insurance industry in the 70s.
“Him and Stephen called me up and asked me if I wanted to do it,” says Goode. “It’s to play the second in charge, underneath Ralph Fiennes who heads the company. Read the rest of this entry »
Watchmen star Matthew Goode is the latest actor to try out for the lead role in the upcoming Lord Of The Rings prequel.

Matthew and his wife attended the Orange British Academy Film Awards 2010 at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London yesterday. I’ve just uploaded some high quality photos from this event to the gallery.
I uploaded a new photoshoot that Matthew did for Wonderland (UK) Magazine last year. Unfortunately, the quality is not good. If anyone have them in better quality and would like donate to this site, I’ll be grateful.
Matthew Goode, 32, has starred in Woody Allen’s Match Point, Brideshead Revisited and Watchmen, and last year produced his greatest work, daughter Matilda. Now he plays lover to Oscar-nominated Colin Firth in Tom Ford’s film of love and grief, A Single Man.
Did you feel a bit of a fraud being cast as the cleverest man in the world in Watchmen? There were many reasons I shouldn’t have been cast in that film and I think people were quite p***ed off. I’m lucky I don’t own a computer.
Really? No, I don’t have one. But trust me, the negative feedback was relayed quite well by friends of mine: ‘Oh my God, everyone hates you, man. It’s awesome.’ When I got there to start filming, all the artwork still had Jude Law’s face on it so I figured he was meant to be doing this but was too expensive. That was good for me.
Are superheroes your way forward now? I’m not built like that; I’m not really that leading man thing. I’m sure I’m more likely to end up playing a teacher on some sort of Rhodesian farm in the 1930s drinking gin Martinis. I hope so, actually, that will be quite fun. Read the rest of this entry »
