The Six-Movie Season That Turned Jude Law Into an Oscars Punchline
VultureStory by Unknown
scrn logline
The wild six-movie blitz that turned Jude Law into an Oscars punchline, chronicling Hollywood's struggle to forge new stars.
beat sheet
- In 2004, Law starred in 6 films in just 3 months - a breakneck pace that backfired, with most of the movies flopping and turning him into a symbol of Hollywood's failure to launch new A-listers.
- Even acclaimed films like 'Closer' and 'The Holiday' couldn't save Law from being reduced to a punchline, as the public became fatigued by his ubiquity and the perception that he was overexposed.
