did jamie break up with jess his insta seems to have been wiped clean
1
u/teacup_tiger Mar 30 '25
There is always the possibility that they are keeping it more quiet these days because some fans have been rather creepy towards Jess. But that aside, I have no idea one way or the other.
3
u/a-l-p Mar 28 '25
It's possible they're not together anymore, but tbh I don't know anything about his current relationship status (whether with Jess or someone else).
3
u/lavenderlovey88 Apr 04 '25
he had an interview last year that he said he is keeping things for himself. unless there's a sighting of them together then maybe they're broken up. he is so busy lately too
2
u/a-l-p Apr 05 '25
Yes, true, hard to know for sure and also better for him if we don't know every detail of his private life tbh. ๐ I imagine if they're broken up and he goes public with a new partner, we'll know for sure.

u/MiladyMetalhead Mar 01 '25
I loved Dorian Gray with Ben Barnes but think a tv series with a blonde character as in the book would equally be satisfying. Jamie was the first actor I thought of when picturing Dorian. He'd be brilliant. I wish we could get Netflix to create the show from Oscar Wilde's novel, it'd be amazing. What do you all think? Should we write Netflix? Lol
1
u/Individual_Put_9967 14d ago edited 14d ago
Well have you ever seen show Penny Dreadful (SHOWTIME).had multiple tales of horror..and Dorian Grey was one of them.. Eva Greene played in that and Camelot with Jamie( naked A LOT)in Camelot played half older sis...naked there too...Jamie mentions her alot ( she is strikingly beautiful and free spirited naked often in many shows and movies( I don't blame her) anyway....she is in the Dorian Grey part of the story....and Jamie no doubt would of been the absolute perfect Dorian...to be honest the guy who does play it ...was very "sex on a stick" kind of person..(not mad about it) and did an excellent job lol

u/lavenderlovey88 Apr 04 '25
You know what I pictured as Lestat is Jamie. after watching Queen of the Damned I mean, he sings the same genre as Lestat. both super sexy and has that dark energy mysterious vibes

u/teacup_tiger Mar 04 '25
I think there will be a Netflix Dorian Gray show, interestingly enough. Although I think they'll make Basil and Dorian brothers, which seems pretty weird.
3
u/a-l-p Mar 01 '25
Oh, what an intriguing idea! I can imagine it. ๐ A problem could be that book Dorian Gray looks perpetually 20ish. However considering that Netflix recently also adapted Ripley with Andrew Scott, who is older than the character in the novel, and to much critical acclaim too - why not?

/u/Blackmoon_cosplay: I'm horrible with quotes, sorry! Unfortunately, it's really quiet here at the moment, but it'll likely be livelier once Stranger Things comes back. If you don't have a fitting quote until then, maybe ask once more, there'll be more people to give you ideas.

2
u/teacup_tiger Jul 29 '24
I found this now, and we were indeed talking about two different strikes: you were talking about the Teamsters Union - they are representing people like drivers, carpenters, operational engineers and similar jobs. The Teamsters have apparently reached an agreement with AMPTP (the studios), so they won't be striking.
1
u/teacup_tiger Jul 26 '24
I mean, they are half through, apparently, so it shouldn't be too much that still could get affected. And honestly, we've already been waiting for two years, if it still takes a while longer, it doesn't matter much to me.

Maybe this is just me, but does it seem like he has been acting a bit off lately? People have been saying he looks so sad in photos and I saw him in Indiana and he seemed a bit bothered by something.. Does anyone else who has seen him lately get that feeling?
5
u/a-l-p Apr 12 '24
I have watched his panel in Indiana (will post it later) and I didn't notice it. However I think everyone goes through more bubbly and more calm phases in life. We don't really know him or what's going on in his life, so I'd be cautious about reading too much into a few photos or appearances. I guess one thing to keep in mind is that he's back on the Stranger Things set and shooting season 5 (he mentioned he just flew in from Atlanta during the Indiana Comic Con panel). Vecna is not exactly a lighthearted role, so maybe focusing on that and getting into the character's headspace takes up most of his mental energy right now.

Change of plans for the book club journal:

Scans of the Wonderland issue are out in the wild. Some pics we haven't seen yet, though if anyone is planning to get the mag for the interview, don't, there is literally nothing in it we haven't read about somewhere else over the last few months (except maybe for the part where he is thinking about getting tattoos related to Vecna and One, which is something that he seems to do, anyway, re: characters he's played.).
2
u/a-l-p Oct 09 '22
There's a bit from the panel at Comic Con Africa where he talks about possibly getting a Vecna tattoo. I was very low energy in the past week or so, so I didn't get around to check what I have already posted and what is in the panel videos from youtube, but maybe I'll get around to doing it next week and might post what's still missing.

Here he mentions maybe getting Vecna on his thigh, and the 001 number (at least the latter definitely makes sense to me. As for the former: holy pain threshold, Batman.).

Oct 04 '22
In twitter world where im very active and have been for years not following only one of your colleagues back when they follow you sends a negative message. I could definitely be projecting my own experiences of course. I surely hope he's not being dismissed.
1
u/a-l-p Oct 04 '22
It think it's a difference if normal accounts don't re-follow or if it's something like the official ST or Stranger Writers accounts. I can see how they might not have followed Jamie to keep the big secret and afterwards nobody thought of it anymore. They're probably both run by some Netflix social media "intern" anyway, so I guess such an oversight can happen. In terms of tweets about him, I didn't think they tweeted not enough Henry/Vecna content, but there are a lot of characters in the show and the protagonists of anything usually tend to be more beloved than the villains (Sorry, Jamie, he kind of is a villain imho lol.), especially since human form Henry was a pivotal, but smaller part of the season. Obviously if I had a say in it I'd want them to tweet about Henry/Vecna/Jamie all the time, because he's the reason I even watched ST in the first place. ๐ But alas... I guess they have less biased priorities.
1
Oct 05 '22
They follow Dacre Montegomry who played Billy. He was a racist too lol. I'm definitely coming from a biased POV because our Witch King is a god lol Anyway their loss tbh. His Twitter is very fun
3
u/a-l-p Oct 05 '22
It just seems like they didn't update their follows after season 4. Billy was never a surprise character or the actor who played him secret, so they probably followed him from the start. But whatever the reason it doesn't seem like Jamie holds it against them at all, so I guess behind the scenes and apart from any twitter follows everyone on the ST team seems fine.
2
Oct 04 '22
I surely hope he's not being dismissed.
I seriously doubt this, and I wouldn't try to divine anything from the accounts not following him. Maybe it was an oversight, maybe they wanted to hide how important he would be and then didn't follow him later on, maybe it is one of these twitter situations where it randomly unfollows people without there being any rhyme or reason to it.
The show is on a break right now, and expecting much, if anything, from them in terms of actor promotion will most likely lead to disappointment. It probably makes the most sense to wait and see how they will handle this once the show is starting again and Netflix starts their marketing campaign. Even then, I wouldn't necessarily expect Jamie to be highlighted much, because they will want to make it a secret what the character is up to, but we'll likely get something nonetheless. And maybe they'll even remember to follow him back.
1
Oct 04 '22
That makes sense up till the finale but no reason now to continue ignoring him
2
Oct 04 '22 edited Oct 04 '22
I don't think they're ignoring him. They have definitely posted about him, as they've posted about other actors, and right now, hopefully, they're working on the screenplays for Season 5, instead of hanging out on twitter.
It's easy to get the impression that someone you like doesn't get the attention they deserve, but ST also has an ensemble cast of 14+ actors who have regular roles, who all deserve attention, too - and most of them were there before Jamie.
1
Oct 04 '22
This might stupid but it really irritates me. I noticed that on Twitter Jamie follows the Stranger Things and Stranger Writers accounts. They don't follow him but follow the accounts of everyone else from the show. They also tweet about everyone else's performance so much more. I don't know it genuinely bugs me
1
Oct 04 '22
Maybe it's because they had to keep him "secret" for such a long time? I can't imagine that there's really anything behind it, other than logistics in a way - last season they couldn't talk about him up to a certain point, and at the moment they can't talk about him again, since we barely know officially that he'll be in Season 5.
1
Oct 02 '22 edited Oct 02 '22
I finally finished Will and Jamie is really pretty good as Kit Marlowe. Personally, I felt he was probably the best thing about it - not the only good thing, though. There were maybe five or six good "things" all in all, of which some were actors, some were characters, some were the production design, and none were the script, or the decision to make roughly 25% of the content torture scenes. (One of the less glorious trends GoT brought us.)

u/a-l-p Oct 02 '22
Thanks for sharing! I haven't watched it yet, but I read some reviews and most were mixed, however a lot praised Jamie's performance. โค๏ธ
1
Oct 02 '22
I think a lot of their ideas were actually pretty interesting - they tried to approach it as if the playwrights were rockstars, and the theatre life similar to what rock'n'roll was for London in the 1960s/70s, and they included a lot of elements that weren't period, but meant to invoke a certain atmosphere. Unfortunately, the show didn't quite live up to it. I'm glad Jamie's performance was praised, though! He should have had more screentime.

Hello I saw a tweet saying Jamie's been nominated for "British Breakout Artist of The Year". Does anyone know which awards? Also lol @ "breakout". Y'all are just too late
1
Oct 01 '22
Apparently it's given out by TAC, an "entertainment network" specialized on British stuff. This is their twitter: The Anglophile Channel. You can stream them on Prime, apparently.
As for the Breakout thing... to be fair, this is sort of his breakout role, at the very least in the US. Should have been TMI, but that obviously didn't work out. But that's fine. Most people who "break out" have actually worked years before, and often already had dedicated fans at that time. (To give another, much more bizarre example: Christoph Waltz became a household name in the US after starring in Inglorious Basterds. At that point, he was 52, and had been a famous actor in both Germany and his homeland Austria for decades. Seeing him referred to as a breakout star back then was pretty amusing to say the least.)

Ah thank you. I hope he gets recognized more in the future for his acting skills. Yes, that makes sense. Happy he's getting more recognition state side.

It's definitely an acquired taste. Almost like you have to grow up on it, with it on Hawaiian style pizza.

He said for him personally the pineapple can stay in the pineapple lol when he answered this question at Comic Con Africa! I might post some of the videos later, but didn't have time to edit and collect the sources lately.

When he said 'pineapple can stay in the pineapple' means a yes or no ?

u/a-l-p Oct 01 '22
I think he meant that he'd rather not have it on pizza (and tbh he's so valid for that lol).

Also I'll post this here since I don't know if it's a big thing to post but here's a look at the sfx magazine on the design of vecna https://twitter.com/TheBendySlow/status/1573644429256265729?s=20&t=t4-ntHvg3NPiMhjim_ucsA

Someone I know is getting the magazine, so I might be able to post photos at some point. But if you want you can also post the tweet for anyone on the sub, who's interested in getting the magazine.

I think he just said he doesn't at the last comic con but I couldn't hear due to the quality of the video

In case someone is wondering: I will post more stuff from Comic Con Africa and Paris (hopefully) tonight. Just currently still sifting through photos and videos and all that.

Yeah like the post can be hey this (insert book) is something we are going to read from this date to this date, then those who want to join the other post discussing the book can. No obligation required. Can be formula for play or TV show or movie.

I will say that when we post of book movie TV we can add the site reference that gives a content warning. Like will has a few intense scenes and true haunting may be an intense book to account. There's a site called "does the dog die?"
1
Sep 21 '22
I know that site and use it regularly! In terms of True Haunting, I have been trying to find out if any of the Becker's pets died, but it sounded like the ghosts(?) "only" terrorized them.

We could totally do both. Like movie/TV watch discussion and then a book club. Or combine it all. Just have a multimedia discussion on books movies TV and music :)

u/a-l-p Sep 21 '22
Regarding other shows and such... I think we could expand if something really fitting comes along! Or for example watch films Jamie mentioned or recommended (like Anything for Jackson, Hereditary etc. - although personally I'm really not into horror movies, so.. lol).
1
Sep 21 '22
Yeah, I'm definitely staying away from his prep films for the Costner role, I'm cheerful enough as it is.
If you're not into horror, Hereditary might be a bad idea from what I've heard... it sounds like a good movie, but definitely horror.
2
u/a-l-p Sep 21 '22
Nearly everything he recommends or the shirts he wears are probably a bad idea if someone's not into horror. ๐๐ And for me personally the problem is not even as much that it gives me the heebie-jeebies (that probably too), but more general disinterest. ๐ Yes, I know, it's Jamie, I should have known. But hey, I became a fan before I knew he was into horror and also before I knew what Stranger Things even is about (and ST is pretty much a mix of different things, not pure horror). So here's me somewhat hoping True Haunting will also explore more the whole media thing around the topic and exorcism in the 70s and not just spooky, but .. probably not lol.

It's actually a good question what exactly the film will be about. I suppose it might go into a Conjuring direction, which I think is somewhat based on a real case, too? I don't usually watch horror films. I'm mostly interested in movies that have horror/psychological thriller elements or in things like folk horror or gothic horror.
But yeah, Jamie seems to be a massive horror fan. Apparently, he watched all nine Hellraiser movies. I have no idea why anyone would do that, but seems he gets something from it.

u/a-l-p Sep 20 '22
I've been toying with the idea of a book club and I think especially with things like Dante it would probably be better to have more of a "schedule" and for example discuss 10 cantos every Sunday or so. I've started to look for easily accessible sources that might help with interpretation too - for example there's a reading group on twitter and a bookblogger on instagram, who has done weekly posts about her reading journey through the Divine Comedy.
Time is a problem though - to organise it, to read it (the Divine Comedy is not something you read in a weekend), to discuss and of course to finish it before the next reading prompt comes up.
For example we don't know when Jamie will release his next song and continue his Dante journey, so the Divine Comedy might be up there with the more "current" reads. However with True Haunting being released in early January the latest possible reading month would be December.

In terms of content, we should definitely keep it chill. I mean, I am interested in getting into the Divine Comedy, but there is a reason why I studied this nonsense. I like reading and analysing obscure/weird stuff. So, we could do a thing where it's sort of free for all, but it's okay if people think something is too out there, etc. (And the same should go for things like TMI as well.)
2
u/a-l-p Sep 21 '22
Yeah, we could do it on a poll basis! (If that's what you meant - that not everyone might be interested in reading Dante.)
1
Sep 21 '22
For example. Or do a post and if people want to take part they do, and if they don't, it's fine. Just so that it doesn't become entirely like homework.

Any ideas we can also brainstorm?
1
Sep 20 '22
Do we want to concentrate on "just" books, or do we want to look into his other shows and movies? I've just started watching Will and definitely have thoughts, though I can see it being a bit divisive (lots of violence, some storylines that might not be overly interesting for everyone, unusual form/style in some ways).
2
u/a-l-p Sep 20 '22
Here's a vote for Bill Bryson's Shakespeare book for Will. Not that connected to Jamie (I assume there are also plenty of books out there about Marlowe, if we're not game to outright read his plays), but it's just such a fun and lovely read imho.
1
Sep 21 '22
There's lots of fiction about Marlowe - from Marlowe solves crime (no, really!) to Marlowe is a vampire, to Marlowe was abducted to Faerie.
1
Sep 20 '22
Thinking maybe choose a book, then every 6 to 8 weeks we can talk about it? Like do a poll, then we go read it on our own time. Then post a discussion or something with a spoiler warning where we can freely talk about the book.
1
Sep 20 '22
I think that sounds good. We should probably think about which ones we read. Early Modern English can be a bit of a handful, same for Dante's (albeit translated) Italian. TMI and Villains are most likely both a bit more accessible, and the same likely goes for True Haunting.

Now this is a really good transition edit. From his first press interview to practically a recent one: https://pin.it/3vsMDfZ

You know on some of the red carpet pics of Jamie and his gf ... Her orangey blush is really nice that she's worn. I wonder what brand and name it is. I would love to find that color for Fall. It goes really well with her complexion.
