Tolkien: Patrick Gibson, Anthony Boyle and Tom Glynn-Carney Interview
123Tolkien: Patrick Gibson, Anthony Boyle and Tom Glynn-Carney Interview
Recently Fox Searchlight brought Collider and a few other journalists to London to visit the shooting location of their upcoming J.R.R. Tolkien biopic: Tolkien.
Tolkien hits cinemas on May 10th, and we were fortunate enough to speak with several people who worked on the film, including Tolkien cast members Patrick Gibson (The OA), Anthony Boyle (Derry Girls), and Tom Glynn-Carney (Dunkirk), who portrayed Robert Gilson, Geoffrey Smith, and Christopher Wiseman respectively.
We spoke with Gibson, Boyle, and Glynn-Carney together about bringing this iconic group of friends (self-styled the “TCBS” or “Tea Club, Barrovian Society”), to life on the silver screen. Although some of their characters suffered untimely deaths, each influenced characters in Tolkien’s most famous works. Each of these young men were as formative to Professor Tolkien himself as they are to the expansive narrative Tolkien brings to life. We discussed the sense of fellowship between the three actors and Tolkien’s leads: Nicholas Hoult and Lily Collins.
Check out what Patrick Gibson, Anthony Boyle, and Tom Glynn-Carney had to say in the player above.
