INTRODUCING… CHARLIE ROWE


, first published

Charlie Rowe has worked with Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Rhys Ifans, Anna Friel and Bob Hoskins, appeared in hit films The Golden Compass and The Boat That Rocked, won an award for a short film and boasts more than 23,000 followers on Twitter. 

For any actor, this would be quite some achievement, but for one who is only 16-years-old (he’ll turn 17 next month), it’s pretty extraordinary. When I met Rowe during rehearsals for The Winslow Boy,  he was the youngest person I’d ever interviewed – well apart from the Matildas, but they always come in fours so it sort of amounts to interviewing one very excitable 40-year-old – and I wasn’t sure what to expect. What I found was a frighteningly eloquent young performer, genuinely passionate about learning everything he can from working at the Old Vic theatre and filled with enough ambition and drive to ensure he’ll probably not only ace the A-Levels he’s about to take but also wow critics with his first leading stage role.

On a rare break from rehearsals, homework, making videos for his fans and indulging his other love for music, Rowe told Official London Theatre what it feels like to be a teenager with a (very female-heavy) fan base, why theatre is in his blood and how his ultimate dream lies behind the camera.

CV in brief:

2005: Makes theatrical debut in The Snowman at the Peacock theatre
2007: Makes film debut in The Golden Compass
2009: Appears in Richard Curtis’ The Boat That Rocked
2010: Makes appearances in films Never Let Me Go and The Nutcracker In 3D
2011: Stars in TV mini-series Neverland as Peter Pan
2013: Stars in The Winslow Boy at the Old Vic theatre

Where did you grow up?
I was born in Islington and live in North London still. I’ve got one little sister called Mattie.

What first sparked your interested in performing?
It’s in my family; my Mum teaches drama, my Dad writes stuff, my Aunty is in the theatre and so is my Grandma. I started out doing the whole jazz hands, tap dancing courses at drama schools and then it progressed from there.

You were in The Golden Compass when you were only 10-years-old. Was that your professional debut?
No, I did a few commercials and billboard photos and stuff like that before. I also did The Snowman at the Peacock theatre, but The Golden Compass was pretty big and it felt ridiculous and exciting.

Did that give you the acting bug?

Yes, it definitely kicked it off. I got to meet Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman, it was unbelievable. 

Tell me about your character in The Winslow Boy.

He’s been expelled from Naval College for stealing some money. He’s his father’s last chance at having a respected son and a son who is doing well in school, and I let him down and I’m just incredibly scared.

Are you enjoying playing him?

I am yes. I can sort of relate to him, that whole thing about being told off by teachers and just being slightly nervous of your father [laughs]. I think we all are!

So you’re naughty at school then, is that what you’re saying?

This happened last time I was interviewed! I need to stop saying it; I’m not naughty at school, I’m perfectly behaved! I’ve never been expelled, I’ve never been suspended, I’m a good boy in school, but everyone’s been told off once or twice…

You’re doing your A-Levels at the moment. How do you balance acting and school?
By working very hard! It’s quite tough, but I’m getting there. I’ve got exams during the run of this show and I’ll be going to school every day and then doing the show at night. 

This is your first leading role on stage. It must feel like quite a new experience.
The Snowman was dancing, it was movement, I had one line in it and that was “Boo”, and there were three other boys doing eight shows a week on rotation. This is just me, at the Old Vic and it’s a serious play.

Are you nervous?
I’m really scared! But very excited and I know I can do it, so that’s fine.

What drew you to the play?

The fact that it was theatre, it was at the Old Vic and it was Lindsay [Posner, the director]. I’d been doing a lot of film and this was a chance to do something English and theatre is just incredibly respected. Already it’s been a crash course in the craft. It was that whole idea of ‘I’m going to learn so much here’ which drew me to it.

So are you a big theatre fan?

Yes. The last thing I saw was Uncle Vanya, directed by Lindsay. Anna Friel, who is a friend of mine, was in that. We try to go as much as we can.

Has your co-star Henry Goodman given you any advice?
Everything he does is advice. He’s incredible, he really is. Just the way he studies his character, learns his lines, he’s very professional and he can just snap out of it, come out here and have a laugh with us in the breaks.

You already have lots of fans and thousands of Twitter followers [the total stands at 23,664 at the time of going to print]. How does that feel?

It’s a bit surreal. It’s weird because you get stuff sent in the post and things like that.

What’s the strangest thing you’ve been sent?
I got a sock sent to me in the post once. Just one sock. A baby’s sock… very strange! But it’s nice, they all support what you’re doing and it’s great because you can promote yourself and your colleagues and what they’re doing. I don’t Tweet all the time, but it’s nice that people are interested in my career.

The Old Vic theatre has a great scheme for young theatregoers. Do you think this play will attract a younger audience because of your fan base?
I hope so, it’s really exciting and hopefully younger people will come to the theatre. I’m sick of going to the theatre and it just being filled with elderly folk [laughs]! I’d like more kids to go and see theatre because it really is amazing.

Did playing Peter Pan in the television show Neverland feel like a big break for you?
It was a leading role, an iconic role, and it was definitely something new. I’d never really done a scene where I was playing a challenging character with an incredible actor and this was a chance to work with Rhys Ifans and Anna Friel and Bob Hoskins and people like that; it was just fantastic. 

Everything’s exciting, every film feels like a big break and this [The Winslow Boy] feels like a big break as well.

You’ve already worked with lots of famous actors. Do you have any particular favourites?
It’s hard to single one out. I’m so lucky to just meet them and work with them. Rhys and Anna were pretty incredible because of the fact that we did have a lot of scenes together and I spent a lot of time with them. They became my mum and dad on set. 

Looking forward, do you want to carry on education and go to university?
I definitely want to complete my A-Levels, just because this career is so unreliable really. I’m not so sure about university. I’ve got time, whether it’s university, film school, drama school or I just head out there into the big wide world…

You also sing and write songs. Is that something you’d like to do as a career?

I’ve always been interested in singing. My sister’s a fantastic singer and it’s just something that’s always been around. I play saxophone and guitar. I’d definitely like to pursue it and it’s something I’d like to keep going, if not as a career then as a hobby. 

What about combining the two and doing a musical?
Oh hello! There we go. Whatever comes up, I’m up for!

What’s been the most memorable point in your career so far?

Every time you get told you get a part, it’s just wonderfully soothing and incredibly fantastic and healing. You have a bad day at school, you come home and get told you’ve got a part in something and it’s just like ‘Yeah, it’s all worth it’. 

I did a short film called Disco and won an award for Best Supporting Actor at an indie film festival and that was nice. Hopefully there’s lots more to come.

What do you have coming up next?
There’s a film coming out in December, Walking With Dinosaurs, and then possibly a film [400 Boys] we’d be going off to China to film. But it’s been postponed for a bit so it just depends. 

Are there any particular roles you’d like to play in your career?
I think every boy would quite like to play James Bond!

Who would be your dream Bond girl?

Oh no! [Laughs and thinks for a split second] Mila Kunis is gorgeous so it would have to be her.

What drives you? Awards, the work, fame?

I’ve never really thought of doing anything else but this. It just seems so natural and I love it. I love the fact that I can work here every day and go home and stay up doing my homework, I like my days being packed. I don’t see myself doing anything else; I just want to be successful with this. If fame comes, then so be it, I’ll try and enjoy it.

If you weren’t an actor, what would you be?

I want to direct films ultimately. Hopefully I’ll have a fantastic career in acting and then go on to do that. That’s my dream, that’s the ultimate goal.

MARGARET NAGLE INTERVIEW!!!!

Here we are with Margaret Nagle, the rewritter of the Catalan TV show "Polseres Vermelles" (Albert Espinosa), the creator of its american version, called RED BAND SOCIETY


Hi Margaret, welcome to Red Band Society Blog! Have you seen our blog?

Yes! I love it!

What is your role in Red Band Society?

I wrote the american version of the TV show created by Albert Espinosa, "Red Band Society".

When does it starts?

September 17th.

And what is this TV show about?

It narrates the story of a group of boys that live in a hospital, and they get together to have a better life. If you want to know more about it, just watch it. ;)

Who is your favourite character? Who is the most important character?

I think they are all important, but maybe Leo, Jordi, Emma and Charlie are the most. My favourite character is Dash; Dash is me.

Interesting... so, will we cry watching Red Band Society?

If you cry it won't be because you expect to, it's because you didn't. Mostly you will laugh, I hope.

If you could travel anywhere right now, where would you go?

Ireland with Albert Espinosa. He has the deep soul of an Irishman. We would fit in there great together.
First we would go to Dublin. Then we would visit the Temple's Street Children Hospital and eat at Il Posto.

Songs of episode 1

BRACCIALETTI ROSSI

Did you know that Italy also has its Red Band Society? They are actually on its second season! It is called Braccialetti Rossi, and here you can see their characters! 




Saturday, September 27, 2014

1. Red Band remade…
Red Band Society is based on a Catalan television show Polseres Vermelles, which debuted in 2011.

2. Is there a doctor in the house?
Mimoun revealed that the Red Band Society crew has not one, but two doctors on staff—one in the writer’s room in Los Angeles, and the other on set advising in Atlanta, where the show is filmed (and where we presumed most of the cast were filming during the Paley event).

3. Two parts reality, one part magical realism…
The omniscient Charlie narrates the series from his hospital bed—where he lies in a coma. The pilot episode features a scene where Charlie is shown caught between two worlds with another one of the patients. Mimoun says that the show revisits “Charlie world” again after the pilot.

4. My So-Called Life
Cruz said he’s still asked about his other coming-of-age TV series, My So-Called Life, which starred Claire Danes and Jared Leto. “It never gets old,” he said of the beloved, but short-lived show. Cruz also shared this jaw-dropping tidbit of trivia:My So-Called Life just celebrated the 20th anniversary of its premiere (August 25, 1994).

5. No vampires.
Cruz was dropping one-liners and zingers throughout the night, and when the panel discussed the ways in which Red Band Society was tapping into a teen zeitgeist that leaned more toward The Fault in Our Stars than Twilight, Cruz quipped, “Mortality is the new immortality…we do take blood, though.”

6. On scrub love…
While teen angst and relationships are a big part of the storylines, the adults will have their own sexy entanglements, too. Rittenhouse, who plays the newbie nurse in her first TV role, teased the audience that her character might be “developing a crush” on someone at the hospital. Hmm. Paging, Dr. McAndrew…

7. Malpractice, anyone? 
Speaking of Ocean Park’s resident [adult] hottie, Mimoun did mention that Annable’s character “makes a huge mistake at the end of episode two.”

8. Mysterious Nurse Jackson
Although Nurse Jackson can put her Nurse Ratched face forward, Spencer’s character is a softie when it comes to the kids on her floor. Mimoun said that Jackson “broke rules in the past…and present.” Her history and home life will be explored later in the season to provide a little context to the nurse she’s become. And later in the season, Jackson and McAndrew clash over comatose Charlie.

9. On the grim reaper, reaping…
While the show has a mid-season hiatus because of the World Series, Mimoun said the first 13 episodes take place over three weeks “in hospital time.” Since the show is set in a pediatric ward where the patients are fighting cancer and other diseases, she offered this sobering reality: “Someone may die.”

The words "scary bitch" next to Octavia Spencer cause big controversy

19.09.2014
An advertising campaign in the subway and on buses in Los Angeles to promote the series "Red Band Society", adapted from the Spanish "Polseres Vermelles", has been withdrawn after anger woke of numerous activists, as reported by ABC.
The conflict was caused by the placement of the words "scary bitch" next to the actress Octavia Spencer. As some point out, the only insult the poster, which defined in a few words various parties, appeared right next to the only black cast member. In the picture, the other characters were qualified with much milder words: the sexy doc, the coma boy, the rebel, the girl next door, the player...
They point to Spielberg and Fox as responsible
Some point to Steven Spielberg and Fox Studios as responsible for allowing a form depromoción thus mistreating black women. In addition to removal of the poster, which has already occurred in the Metro, the National Action Network are requested requires apologize for what happened. 
A spokesman for the city's subway angelina said authorities had decided to pull the ads because "denigrated women." "The message spoke for itself. It was not acceptable," added the source to Los Angeles Times. The company is now working to remove the 190 ads placed as soon as possible.
Fox apologises
A spokesman for Fox, meanwhile, explained that once knew the impact of the campaign had immediately offered to remove the offending words. "We deeply apologize if the poster has upset someone," he added.

Funny thing

A funny thing about Red Band Society is that the 4 Executive Producers are Darryl Frank, Justin Falvey, Steven Spielberg and Sergio Agüero, a guy named exactly the same as Manchester City's striker, Sergio Agüero, from Argentina.
