Double Olivier Award winning actor Andrew Scott talks to Graham Norton ahead of returning to London’s glittering West End to star in a new adaption of VANYA. Co-created by Scott, along with Simon Stephens, Sam Yates and Rosanna Vize, the story follows Chekhov’s closely, although Stephen’s adaptation is in modern vernacular with anglicised names and not a samovar in sight.
FLEABAG’s hot priest, Andrew Scott, is about to take on his most liberating role yet: a one-man show of Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya in which he will play all nine roles, male and female. In the coming months, Scott will be everywhere: a trick of scheduling, rather than by design. VANYA will be followed in December by the release of ALL OF US STRANGERS, a film in which he stars with Paul Mescal and Claire Foy.
Two of Ireland’s best-rising stars are set to appear together in a drama-fantasy film that’s got us hooked. Paul Mescal (NORMAL PEOPLE) and Andrew Scott (FLEABAG) play two men living in London whose first meeting changes their lives and sets in motion a series of surreal events. The film will revolve around the performances of Mescal and Scott, who’ve both been breaking into Hollywood with films like AFTERSUN and CATHERINE CALLED BIRDY respectively and is set to release on 22nd December.
FLEABAG hot priest Andrew Scott is set to play every role in the new production of VANYA on the West End this Autumn. Scott’s name is most renowned for his appearances on Television, with starring roles in FLEABAG and SHERLOCK, as well as an appearance in Netflix’s BLACK MIRROR. Scott has also appeared in movies such as war thriller 1917, and SPECTRE, Daniel Craig’s fourth Bond film, where Scott appeared as a nemesis of the infamous British spy.
SHERLOCK alum Andrew Scott is among the latest stars to join Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx’s upcoming Netflix movie BACK IN ACTION. According to Deadline, Scott will be joining the project alongside his FLEABAG co-star Jamie Demetriou, who played Bus Rodent on the acclaimed comedy-drama series. Scott is best known for his role as Jim Moriarty in the BBC series SHERLOCK, for which he won a BAFTA. He also earned a Golden Globe nomination and won a Critics’ Choice Television Award for his role as The Priest on FLEABAG.
Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal are going to play lovers in the upcoming film STRANGERS. And it sounds like this will not be your typical queer drama—it’s part surreal ghost story, part existential mystery, and part steamy romance. According to Variety, the film is being helmed by director Andrew Haigh, creator of Looking and queer indie darling Weekend. The plot is loosely adapted from Taichi Yamada’s 1987 novel of the same name, which follows a Tokyo TV writer’s encounter with the ghosts of his parents.
Now on Amazon Prime, CATHERINE CALLED BIRDY stars Dublin-born actor Andrew Scott. Scott plays Lord Rollo, a man of supreme leisure who dresses like the founding father of medieval comfort. He swans around in silky robes over silkier caftans, lounging his days away on soft, fluffy poufs as he plots ways to marry off his teenage daughter (the titular Birdy, played by Bella Ramsey) to a wealthy suitor.
Andrew Scott, beloved Hot Priest on Fleabag, has joined the cast of STRANGERS, based on the 2004 English translation of Taichi Yamada’s 1987 novel. STRANGERS will follow Adam (Scott), a screenwriter who lives alone in a tower block in London. Adam’s life begins to get knocked off course after a run-in with a mysterious neighbor (Paul Mescal). After the pair grow closer, Adam discovers two people who look like his parents (Claire Foy), who died over thirty years prior, living in his childhood house.
