[tps_header]Too DOPE for our feeble minds to comprehend: Eddie Redmayne as Balem Abrasax in JUPITER ASCENDING [/tps_header]
Most people live their lives going with the flow, following the heard and dancing to another drummer’s beat. Then there are those so far out in front of society, we can’t appreciate their dopeness. Ladies and gentleman, I present to you Eddie Redmayne in Jupiter Ascending. Dude goes through each scene sounding like he spent the previous night as the lead singer in an Adele cover band. My man is hoarse. I’m open to conceding that he kept his voice at such low decibel levels so as people wouldn’t notice him in his scenes. However, I prefer to see his performance from a glass is half full perspective. Maybe Redmayne actually met a human-looking alien named Balem and that’s how the homie spoke so when he read the Jupiter Ascending script and it featured a human-looking alien named Balem, he knew it was up to him to bring truth to the role with Daniel Day-Lewis level method acting force.
