Ralph Fiennes News

Jessica Lange, who is currently starring on Broadway in Mother Play, will be receiving the CineMerit Award this summer at the Munich International Film Festival. The award recognizes high achievement in the world of cinema. Past winners of the award include Ralph Fiennes, Antonio Banderas, and Emma Thompson.

Simon Godwin is no stranger to the work of Shakespeare. Until May 5, his production of Macbeth is playing in D.C. with a cast led by Ralph Fiennes and Indira Varma. The film version of this same production will hit theaters on May 2. BroadwayWorld sat down with Godwin to discuss his take on Shakespeare’s tragedy, Fiennes’ performance, and what the play means for contemporary audiences.

Established by theatrical producer Barbara Whitman in 2021, this award recognizes a woman, trans, or non-binary director who has developed a clear and distinctive artistic voice and demonstrated unique vision in their theatrical work.

Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Ralph Fiennes are all in talks to star in the 28 Years Later, which serves as a sequel to the 2002 Boyle horror flick. Boyle is returning to direct, which features a script by Alex Garland who also penned the original. At this time, it is unknown who the three actors will play in the film, which is said to be the first of a new trilogy.

Director Simon Godwin's brand-new critically-acclaimed  production of Macbeth starring Tony and BAFTA Award winner Ralph Fiennes and Olivier Award winner Indira Varma will be released in cinemas from May 2. In this exclusive video taken from his first soliloquy in Act 1 Scene 3, a battle-scarred Macbeth wrestles with his conscience after the Witches' prophecy that he will become Thane of Cawdor comes to pass.

STC’s Macbeth highlights brutal pairs: war and domestic life, grief and humor, brief words and permanent consequences. While the setting could feel unassuming—indeed, audiences must make their way through the parking lot of a Home Depot when arriving via metro—it also shows how extravagant it is to create a theatre space from scratch. This over-the-top, hollowed-out aesthetic fits the world of the play, where titles and status belie a fear of impermanence. Combined with raw, vulnerable performances, this is a powerful take on the timeless tragedy.
