Did he really get sick in the middle of the show? He looks good though.

Eddie Redmayne's BAFTA Awards Were Sick—as in Food Poisoning
This probably wasn’t the sort of awards show recognition Eddie Redmayne had in mind. Still, the Les Misérables actor—or, more accurately, the health of the Les Misérables actor—was certainly the talk of yesterday’s BAFTA Awards.
That’s because after the Brit’s dashing red carpet arrival at the London ceremony, he was doing a different kind of dashing altogether. Namely, to the backstage bathroom after falling ill with a bout of food poisoning.
Lincoln’s Sally Field was first to mention his absence onstage at the Royal Opera House after her would-be copresenter was MIA during their category, leaving her to do the honors solo.
“I was supposed to be out here with Eddie Redmayne, he seems to be puking his guts up back there,” she said.
So much for delicacy.

Aww.... poor guy. I wouldn't want everyone to know I was ill, especially if it occurred in a venue filled with Hollywoods elite. Love the gif of Eddie and Tom, they've probably known each other since their Eton days, must be a bit surreal then to be experiencing fame/popularity around the same time too. And finally, as for Eddie's suit last night, he looked so dashing in it. By this point in the awards show season I just about wanted to say to all the men in Hollywood, "give up and go home cause Eddie Redmayne will always end up looking the best in his unique, dapper suits."

I thought the Bafta suit was black yesterday. It looks so much better with the right lighting, the shade is amazing. He's been the best dressed of the cast of Les Misérables since the beginning of the tour IMO, way better than the girls and not one bad note.

Oh and those gifs with Tom made my day

Thanks Heather for the better image! His suit is a great color now that you see it with that lighting.

Aww poor Eddie! That's really awful of Sally to mention it so crudel, should't have said anything.

 

[Alvedansen]

^well in Sally's defence...Anne also mentioned it during her acceptance speech (how she would hold back his hair)

btw, don't know if it's been mentioned, but he said he would go to the Oscars this year, so at least one more appearance from him to look forward to.

This sounds great!

Leo Tolstoy's War And Peace To Get BBC Adaptation

40 years after previous version BBC turn to Russian epic

Eddie Redmayne will star in a remake of Leo Tolstoy's epic Russian novel War and Peace, which will be brought to television by BBC Wales, 40 years after the last time that an adaptation came to the small screen.

The novel is a notoriously difficult book to film, coming in at roughly 1500 pages and with long passages devoted to battles in the Napoleonic Wars, alongside the epic intertwining love stories set in Russia in the early 19th Century.

According to the Beeb the script will be written by the scribe who wrote the 1995 TV adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, famously featuring Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle.
Redmayne will continue his history of starring in historical epics, cutting his teeth on channel 4's The Pillars of the Earth and most recently starring in Les Miserables.

The novel is regarded as one of the world's most important literary works, and according to the BBC, Davies said it was, ""Not just a great novel, it's a wonderful read and it'll make a wonderful serial."

He added: "The characters are so natural and human and easy to identify with and Natasha Rostova (the main female protagonist of the novel) just beats Lizzy Bennet (Pride and Prejudice's heroine) as the most lovable heroine in literature," he added.

The 1972 series featured Sir Anthony Hopkins as the aristocratic dilletante turned wealthy landowner who features as the novel's moral and philosophical heart.

He's so sexy. He truly knows how to wear a suit. DAYUM!!! I love him.

And YAY @ the War and Peace Adaptation. I'm so thrilled at how well his career is going. He really deserves it.

So happy for Eddie!

However, I don't get all that "40 years after the last time that an adaptation came to the small screen" stuff, there was an adaptation in 2007, with Clémence Poésy as Natasha.

 

[YoninahAliza]

So excited about the War & Peace news! It sounds like a great project for Eddie. His career is shaping up quite nicely! I wonder who else will be cast for this adaptation? And I love Davies adaptations of Pride & Prejudice, he also wrote the script for Bleak House which the BBC did a few years ago and I thought was wonderful. Hopefully, since it'll air on PBS around the same time, I hate having to wait for British shows to air over here.

great news, i love how much work he's getting lately.
maybe it's time for me to finally read that book now

Glad he's feeling better and glad he'll be there Sunday.
To be fair after seeing Les Misérables I'm quite surprised he didn't get more recognition or even a nomination for his performance. Anne's buzz and wins were built up on her "I dreamed a dream" scene well Eddie take on "Empty chairs and Empty tables" was for me as impressive and heartbreaking if not more...
