Irish film star sizzles in Jane Eyre
The X-Men: First Class and Inglourious Basterds star has just stepped off the plane from the Venice Film Festival, where he’s promoting two films, not one. Those would be Shame, director Steve McQueen’s hugely anticipated follow up to Hunger — another virtuoso Fassbender project — and Steven Soderbergh’s A Dangerous Method, in which Fassbender stars as Carl Jung alongside Viggo Mortensen and Keira Knightley.
Oh, and he’s had a busy summer in the Scottish highlands filming Ridley Scott’s science fiction epic Prometheus.
