Description
The Michael Anthony Show returns this week for Episode 136 in which actor and author Rupert Everett joins the show. Fascinating in equal measure for both his unique life as well as his on screen career, Everett delves into numerous topics as he takes us on his journey from a stiff upper lip old English militant background, to Hollywood fame.The ever philosophical and reflective sixty-two year old opens up on sexuality, gender, the declining nature of the arts, changes in the gay community, the effects of technology on society, mortality, his experiences with Harvey Weinstein, as well as his love for Oscar Wilde and more.Having hit worldwide fame following his role as George in 1997's 'My Best Friend's Wedding', Everett discusses his decision not to spend his career dining out on the gay best friend character, and tells us of his regrets as well as struggles in the unforgiving and often isolating world of show business. A man with an intriguing view on how we interpret the concepts of love and individualism, Everett's path has included brushes with sex work, heroin use and decades of promiscuity. 'The Happy Prince' creator is resilient, a character of his generation. A generation that he now longs for in an ever virtual world.Out now on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
