Rupert Everett Then
Rupert Everett won a BAFTA for his breakthrough performance as Julian Mitchell in Another Nation in 1984. He played an openly gay pupil at a 1930s English school. He was known for playing bad guys, and his smoldering good looks helped him secure jobs in films throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Everett attempted (unsuccessfully) to turn his popularity into a music career as a pop sensation with his song, Generation of Loneliness. But it was too late; the audience still thought of him as a wonderful performer, and admirers ignored his artistic endeavors. In 1997, for My Best Friend’s Wedding, he got his second BAFTA and his first Golden Globe.

Rupert’s current appearance is fine because he no longer resembles the fresh-faced boy who once graced the silver screen. He is, however, still behaving as regularly as he used to. This year, he starred in Tim Burton’s Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, and he previously acted in the Shrek flicks and the Chronicles of Narnia. He’s also dabbled in fiction, publishing two memoirs and a novel. He has spoken out on a variety of political and social issues, including the decriminalization of prostitution and same-sex marriage. Clearly, there has always been more to this new Renaissance man than meets the eye.
