Los Angeles Times

Jonathan Rhys Meyers: Creating a king By Denise Martin Los Angeles Time, June 4, 2008 Jonathan Rhys Meyers gives King Henry VIII chiseled good looks and an intensity to boot.

They do all the pre-production and post-production together, but each directs every other day and serves as “best buddy” on the off days. That is how they’ve been...
