At 24, Edouard Philipponnat has already worked with powerhouse director Ridley Scott twice and his latest project Napoleon has him going toe to toe with the likes of Joaquin Phoenix and Vanessa Kirby.

The rising French-Finnish actor chatted with JustJared.com about the experience shooting his new film, a spectacle-filled action epic that details the checkered rise and fall of the iconic French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte.

Edouard tells us that co-star Joaquin is “intimidating in his nature because he is that good” but is “so generous and kind as a performer. He helps you bring everything out of the scene.”

As for Vanessa, Edouard says that there was “a lot of laughter and toe stepping was involved. She was a class act. I think she pretended like it was hard for her too to make me feel better.”

“When the legend becomes fact, print the legend” – one of cinema’s most famous quotes from John Ford’s 1962 classic western The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. That quote can be used to describe how Ridley Scott has chosen to approach the story of Napoleon. Scott has chosen to ignore much of the historical accuracy in this historical biopic and that has caused historians to be irate and critics to be torn.

Joaquin Phoenix is Napoleon and throughout the film we get to witness his rise and fall across 32 years, from the beginning of the French Revolution to the eventual death of Napoleon in 1821. The first instance we get to see what Napoleon is all...

En garde. A connoisseur of the onscreen battle, Ridley Scott stepped away from production on his anticipated Gladiator 2 to usher in the latest depiction of a power-hungry, pitifully-in-love Napoleon Bonaparte on Thursday night.

Napoleon, following the meteoric rise and fall of the 19th century French emperor — produced by Apple and theatrically distributed by Sony — premiered in London’s Leicester Square with frontman Joaquin Phoenix leading the troops on a rain-soaked red, white and blue carpet.

“It was such a shame not to be able to have show business at its biggest and its best for all those months [during the recently concluded writers and actors strikes], so it feels really fantastic to be back,” Tom Rothman, chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures’ Motion Picture Group, told The Hollywood Reporter.

It wasn’t long before Rothman was hailing Phoenix’s performance: “You couldn’t do a legendary figure without a legendary actor.”

As captivating as Phoenix’s Napoleon is — a man for whom,...

Paris hosted the world premiere of Napoleon, a historical action epic featuring Joaquin Phoenix in the titular role of French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte.

Against a stunning backdrop of large-scale filmmaking orchestrated by legendary director Ridley Scott, the film captures Bonaparte’s relentless journey to power through the prism of his addictive, volatile relationship with his one true love, Josephine (Vanessa Kirby).

Movies about the infamous French military commander Napoleon Bonaparte have always been massive undertakings. After all, the wars and battles he unleashed were some of the biggest and deadliest in European military history. You can't exactly be frugal when adapting these battles to the big screen, and since they're such a significant part of Bonaparte's legacy, you shouldn't even think of skipping them. This is partially why Stanley Kubrick's biopic of the commander wound up in development hell and never found its way out during his lifetime.

However, it seems Ridley Scott has finally done what was previously thought to be nearly impossible: He has directed a biographical action epic based on Bonaparte's life, simply titled "Napoleon," and it is coming out later this year. Starring Oscar-winner Joaquin Phoenix as the commander, it marks the actor's first collaboration with Scott since their acclaimed team-up on 2000's "Gladiator." While...

Napoleon is an historical drama movie directed by Ridley Scott, starring Joaquin Phoenix as Napoleon. This will the first production collaboration between actor and director since Gladiator (2000). Initially titled ‘Kitbag’, in early 2022 it was decided that ‘Napoleon’ should be the film’s ultimate title.

You can look forward to a grand scale film, with several big battles being featured, and a close look at the dynamics between Napoleon and his wife Josephine.

The movie will be released on Apple TV+ this year.

Cameron Douglas gives a deeply felt performance as a cynical cop who strong-arms a teen screwup into helping with a bust

A high-society princeling trying to drown inner demons with drugs by the bucketload: it could have been a role written specifically for Cameron Douglas, son of Michael. But, befitting his newly sober and reformed status, Douglas takes the paternal cop role in The Runner, while French-Finnish actor Edouard Philipponnat (soon to be seen in Ridley Scott’s Napoleon) is a teenage drug-dealing screwup; both give robust performances in this deeply felt but somewhat cumbersome thriller.

It plays a bit like Hamlet, if Hamlet was constantly bumping coke and hawking every substance going around. Gilded high-schooler Aiden (Philipponnat) is busted by the no-nonsense Detective Wall (Douglas), who releases him on the proviso he helps take down a local big-shot dealer. Aiden steers his partner Blake (Nadji Jeter) into inviting the...

The Runner follows a troubled teenager, Aiden, who the law enforcement enlists to go undercover to take down a drug king pin.

Edouard Philipponnat, who plays Aiden, recently sat down with uInterview founder Erik Meers to discuss what it was like working with Cameron Douglas, the son acting icon Michael Douglas.

“I love him! He’s my older brother, he’s incredible,” Philipponnat enthused. “I think the first day was his birthday, too, so it was just a really lovely feeling to it. We did some rehearsal where we went all out, especially that scene by the car outside, we did all of that pretty much realistic and everything. I don’t speak on his behalf, but he knew this world a lot and even these places we were shooting, he was familiar some of them.”

“He really took me under his wing and he saw the shape I was...

As the sting operation begins to fall apart, it threatens Aiden’s deal and his very survival.
