Discuss Jude Law here...

In Brief:

The son of two teachers, Law was educated at John Ball Primary School in Blackheath. He started acting with the National Youth Music Theatre at the age of 12 and, at 17, he dropped out of school completely.

Bio:

After minor roles in British television, Law had his breakthrough with the British ram-raiding drama Shopping which also featured his future wife Sadie Frost. He shot to fame in Britain upon the release of Wilde, in which he played Lord Alfred Douglas, the glamorous lover of Stephen Fry's Oscar Wilde.

Law subsequently moved to Hollywood; his performances include Gattaca, as a frustrated Olympic medalist bound by a wheelchair, in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil as an ill-fated lover of Kevin Spacey's character, in Road to Perdition as a sadistic hitman. He was nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in The Talented Mr. Ripley.

Law's career suffered a decline during 2004. The remake of Alfie was a box-office flop, making back only about half of its estimated $60 million budget, and was voted one of the worst remakes of all time by subscribers to Screen Select. Other films of his in 2004, such as Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow and I ♥ Huckabees also flopped. Law was the butt of a joke by Chris Rock at the 2005 Academy Awards that reportedly led to Law leaving the Creative Artists Agency. Writing in the Daily Mail in 2005 Laura Benjamin contended that though Law had been effective in supporting roles, his appeal was too limited to carry a film on his own.

Law's classical good looks have made him a leading 'heart throb', but he has sometimes chosen to hide his looks in unglamorous roles such as the evil, balding hitman in Road to Perdition.

Law is a fan of the seminal graphic novel Watchmen, by Alan Moore, so much so he has a tattoo of the Rorschach character. He has maintained an interest in being involved in a feature film production of the series, especially if it were directed by Darren Aronofsky. He has said that he would most likely play the character Ozymandias.

Law married Sadie Frost on September 2, 1997. They have three children together: son Rafferty (born October 6, 1996), daughter Iris (born October 25, 2000) and son Rudy (born September 10, 2002). For a time Frost and Law were central to the so called 'Primrose Hill set' of young British actors. They finalized their divorce on October 29, 2003.

Jude Law became engaged to Sienna Miller, his co-star in the remake of Alfie. On July 18, 2005, Law issued a public apology to his fiancée for having an affair with his children's nanny, Daisy Wright, in New Orleans. Law and Miller reconciled after that, but in October 2005, Law learned that Miller was conducting a relationship with Daniel Craig, while expressing feelings of betrayal and upset at Law's affair. He reportedly threw her out of their North London home in disgust of the news and ended their engagement. This was ironically familiar to his character in Closer.

On November 17, 2004, Jude Law was named People magazine's sexiest man alive.

In 2005, Law and his ex-wife Sadie Frost reached a divorce settlement after nearly two years of negotiations. Frost will keep the couple's $4 million London house in Primrose Hill, and receive payments from Law totalling $2 million.

In August 2005, Law was photographed nude while attempting to put on his bathing suit at his mother's home in Vaudelnay, France, and the pictures instantly began circulating on the internet.
