Feb 16th, 2010 Matthew Goode: there were many reasons I shouldn’t have been cast in Watchmen
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 »
