What a blessed day today is turning out to be -- I get to post about Jake Gyllenhaal, Morgan Spector, David Lynch AND now Oliver Jackson-Cohen? A Hump Day for the ages. The Olly news is as follows -- he is starring in a new Agatha Christie adaptation! Specifically an adaptation of her 1944 murder mystery Towards Zero, this is a three-part event series for the BBC and it'll co-star Anjelica Huston and Matthew Rhys among many others -- per usual it's a great big cast so you have trouble guessing the killer. You know how such things go by now. Anyway the most important bit here is that Olly is playing a tennis star! If at any point in this series they put Oliver Jackson-Cohen is short white tennis shorts I will probably drop dead on the spot, y'all. And it'll be a happy death!
Kahlil Ben Gharbia is in it too. I want to see them play doubles.
ReplyDeleteOh shit! I still haven't gotten his name planted in my memory place so I didn't realize who that was. YES PLEASE
ReplyDeleteOJC, Matthew Rhys, and an Agatha Christie adaptation? Yes, please.
ReplyDeleteunfortunately. in 1936, he'll probably be playing in trousers [whilst carrying a bottle of champagne]
