From: Favorite Hunks & Other Things
I was a big Jude Law fan, but lately...not so much. Lets look at what happened, and how we might get his career back on track!.
The Beginning
Jude Law began acting on British television in the late 80's. Throughout the early 90's, Law began developing a following appearing in other projects on British TV and movies. In 1997 the gay community took notice of Law for his role in Wilde. His walk across the room naked, with the near perfect ass caused a flurry of screen caps to be posted all over the net. Law went on to other movies, taking both leading roles and smaller character parts in interesting projects such as Midnight In The Garden of Good and Evil, The Wisdom of Crocodiles and Gattaca. These roles in smaller, critically acclaimed projects created a name for Law in Hollywood. During this time, his fan base continued to be heavily populated by gay men due to not only the parts he chose, but also his amazing looks and willingness to shed his clothes in many of his projects. There is always a bit of a mystery about actors from the UK. Even though in the UK they may be on daytime soaps or TV shows, to us in North America they hold a mystery and many are able to move from TV to major motion pictures just by crossing the Atlantic.
