Jonathan Rhys Meyers: I Look Like a Bad Guy
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, NBC, Features,
Jonathan Rhys Meyers thinks he looks like a bad guy.
The Dracula star, who has been to rehab three times for alcohol addiction, is always looking for "some sort of balance" in his life, but believes his inner conflict makes him a better actor.
"I'm cast as a bad guy because I look like one. And I can convey that sense of conflict because I'm a guy who lives with conflict a lot of the time. It's not something that I have to search for - that sense of looking for some sort of peace, looking for some sort of balance. It's evident in me regardless of what I do, so maybe it just suits the parameters of Dracula," the 36-year-old star said.
The Irish actor has had a tough time over the past 12 months since signing on to star in the new TV series, which is produced by both NBC and Sky: "I've gone to two funerals. My grandfather and my best friend passed away during this production. So I went back and put them to rest. I don't get many breaks."

Casting Announcements for The Tudors
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Cable, Showtime, News,
Look for a few celebrities to be donning their best period garb in the new season of The Tudors.
Although she is better known for her soulful voice, Joss Stone will be venturing further into the acting world on the cable series. The British singer, in her first major role, will star opposite Jonathan Rhys Meyers (Henry VIII). Stone will play Anne of Cleves, the daughter of a German nobleman whose marriage to Henry is eventually annulled. Believing she doesn’t live up to the portrait he saw of her, the king quickly has his fourth wife sent away.

‘Tudors’ Star Breaks for Rehab
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Drama, Cable, Showtime, Cable/Satellite, Gossip, Rumors,
Rehab seems to be the way of many young stars these days. At least they’re getting help, but it seems almost “the thing to do.” The latest to hit the rehab circuit is The Tudors star Jonathan Rhys Meyers. His rep, Meredith O’Sullivan, said of Meyers decision to enter rehab, “After a non-stop succession of filming, Jonathan Rhys Meyers has entered an alcohol-treatment program. He felt a break was needed to maintain his recovery.” Indeed, he’s been busy—playing Henry VIII on Showtime’s The Tudors, as well as the miniseries Elvis. You may have also caught his pouty lips in Bend it Like Beckham, Match Point, and Mission: Impossible III. Meyers will be back filming The Tudors once he has finished his rehab program.
