Edward John David Redmayne OBE (born 6 January 1982) is an English actor and model. He is the recipient of various accolades, including an Academy Award, a Tony Award, a Golden Globe Award, a Screen Actors Guild Award, and a British Academy Film Award. He began his professional acting career in West End theatre before making his screen debut in 1996 with guest television appearances. His first films were Like Minds (2006), The Good Shepherd (2006) and Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). On the stage, Redmayne starred in the productions of Red from 2009 to 2010 and Richard II from 2011 to 2012. The former won him the Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Play. Redmayne's film breakthrough came with the roles of Colin Clark in the biographical drama My Week with Marilyn (2011) and Marius Pontmercy in Tom Hooper's musical Les Misérables (2012). He garnered consecutive nominations for the Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayals of physicist Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything (2014), and transgender artist Lili Elbe in The Danish Girl (2015), winning for the former. In 2016, he began starring as Newt Scamander in the Fantastic Beasts film series.
We follow the story of the heroic warrior Xena, who tries to make amends for her dark past, and the story of the hero Hercules, son of the powerful god Zeus. Both of them, together with their friends, wander through ancient Greece, trying to fight the forces of evil and protect the weak against both the will of the gods and all sorts of monsters and tyrants. Xena is accompanied by her loyal friend and fellow warrior Gabrielle and Hercules by his best friend Iolaus. Their paths cross from time to time and sometimes they even join forces to fight their common enemies. We probably all remember Xena: Warrior Princess and Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. If a remake were to ever come out, I would keep everything that was best about those shows. I would definitely avoid any over-the-top modernization except for the trick scenes, the sets, and the overall cinematic scale.
