Garrett in L'Uomo Vogue
Garrett Hedlund
The star of "Tron: Legacy" will play a country singer alongside Gwyneth Paltrow and Dean Moriarty in Walter Salles’ "On the road"
In Garrett Hedlund’s dimension, that is, Roseau, Minnesota, in the agricultural heartland of the US, there are no virtual worlds or flaming Ducatis, just fields of wheat and tractors.
To tell the truth, there's not even a real cinema. The nearest one, in the town 30 miles from his farm, only shows one film a week, while the nearest multiplex cinema is a three-hour drive away. His Tv only gets four channels, and the only decent show is Cheers. The star of Tron: Legacy learned about film by ruining his parents’ video recorder watching movies over and over again ("I used to love Peter Sellers' Being There).
He learned to act playing Patroclus in Troy. Garrett has never stopped since. "It's incredible, what has happened to me has gone beyond my wildest expectations. Director Joseph Kosinski comes from Montana; as soon as we exchanged glances we had an understanding. Jeff Bridges is a great actor, and Olivia Wilde was perfect, also because of her athletic abilities. I got ready for the film practicing parkour and the martial arts, as well as training in the gym, to the point that I gained ten kilos and discovered muscles I didn't even know I had. It's fantastic to see your image projected on a screen in 3D and interact with it".
