Of course, with it also comes people all over the world swooning over Eddie’s boyishly cute looks and charming demeanour and as such, we have come up with a list of other Eddie Redmayne movies you can check out and other roles of his we absolutely loved on screen.
3 Brilliant Eddie Redmayne Roles We Love
3. Einar Wegener and Lily Elbe in The Danish Girl
Just last year, Eddie played the role of Einar Wegener and Lily Elbe in ‘The Danish Girl’ and, as always, he blew people away – enough to score him another Academy Award nomination. He was really convincingโฆ but then again, if you’ve seen Eddie act, you should know by now that he does all of his roles justice.
2. Marius in Les Miserables
I first fell in love with Eddie in the on-screen adaptation of the musical ‘Les Miserables’. What was not to love, really? He could sing. He was charming. And he looked at Cosette like he was really, really in love with her. I ended up listening to the Les Miserables movie OST after watching ‘Fantastic Beasts’. :p
1. Stephen Hawking in ย The Theory of Everything
Of course, this is a must-see. After all, Eddie did win an Oscar for his role as Stephen Hawking in ‘The Theory of Everything’ and I think this is where people started to see him as a more serious actor.
So, if you’re currently crushing on Eddie because of ‘Fantastic Beasts’, make sure to watch him in these older movies of his. They are all worth your time – take it from me! ๐
