“Franklyn” opens in the UK on January 30, 2009 and Sam Riley is already promoting it.
Here is interviewed in this Sunday’s Daily Mail and talks about “Franklyn” and working with Eva Green. There’s also a new still from it, which shows Sam with James Faulkner:
After the red carpets of New York, Cannes and Hollywood, he moved to Berlin to be with his girlfriend, the German actress Alexandra Maria Lara. He turned down several leads and waited months before signing up for sci-fi film Franklyn.
‘After Control I was offered a lot of lead roles as more suicidal young men,’ he says. ‘The answer was always, “Noâ€.
‘I did Franklyn for the simple reason that it was good. A great story, a great script and something completely different, it has this incredible unexpected twist that merges two completely different worlds together. I loved it.’
The film is an otherworldly thriller romance.
‘There isn’t any film out there like Franklyn,’ says Riley. ‘I love the idea that you don’t know what’s real or not, and the whole idea that the film doesn’t have any of the usual love scenes – a relationship that’s just incredibly romantic was so different.’
It seems strangely unbelievable that after Control Riley would shun Hollywood. But Riley clearly likes to do the unexpected.
(…)
The buzz for Franklyn, which stars Eva Green and Ryan Phillippe, has already started.
‘It was massively important for me to play a second lead,’ says Riley. ‘I’m new, I’m learning. It’s the way you do it if you want to do it right. Eva was amazing to work with, she has this incredible energy and confidence.
‘But the biggest thing for me was to watch these two guys on set. Franklyn was massive learning curve for me. It’s not a film you can explain, you just have to see it. The look of it is unbelievable.’
In the September 2008 issue of InStyle Spain, MarÃa Valverde (official website can be viewed here) talks very briefly about “Cracks”:
“She talks excitedly about ‘Cracks’, Jordan Scott’s first long feature film. She was the only Spaniard in the cast, the filming took place in English — in England and in Ireland — and the gorgeous Eva Green was among her co-stars. ‘It was my first experience that’s close to Hollywood’, she says. ‘Because of the technical means, the silence, the way of filming… Spectacular!’”
Dear loyal Eva Green Web visitors and Eva Green fans:
May all the dreams in your eyes, all the desires in your heart and all the hopes in your life blend together, to give you the most spectacular New Year ever.
Last but not least, the January 2009 Calendar Wallpaper is already in the Fanart Gallery. Credit goes out as usual to the lovely and amazing mata!
We want to say a big thank you to Marlène for sending in a scan from the Reporters Sans Frontières Book. This book is a compilation of portraits of 100 stars for the freedom of the press. While Eva’s photo isn’t new and was taken in 2004, we definitely appreciate Marlène’s kind contribution! And new or old Eva photos and articles are always welcome.
I’m back bringing you a gorgeous and fun photoshoot taken the night of the BIFAs. Eva isn’t vampy in it, but goofy and funny. And the session has a Christmas vibe to it, right? So it’s very appropriate for this time of the year.
Our lovely mata and I are thinking about using it as the next gallery header…
I’m slowly getting back to “normal life”, but Holidays Season is never like normal life, right? So please bear with me! I have to read plenty of emails and try to get back on track! Thanks for the emails, support, contributions!
So… did you miss me much?
In the meantime I’ve added a scan from Madame Figaro Russia scanned by deydi and sent in by Elmira.
Franziska was lovely enough to send us a link to a Swiss article in which Eva says that she loves Switzerland and wants to buy a farm there after she retires from acting. Unfortunately Franziska is too busy to provide a full translation. But Maria from Magnifique Marion Cotillard was a sweetheart and translated it for us!!! Thank you Maria!!
PS: If anyone has the Reporters Sans Frontières book please send in a scan to share with other fans!
In Casino Royale she was still in love with James Bond. Now however actress Eva Green has fallen hard for Switzerland.
Elegant wardrobe, carefully (elaboratively?) coiffed hair, deep black mascara: the woman who is sinking into a dark leather sofa of a Genevian jeweller establishment comes across as mysterious and very very sensual.
My dear friends and visitors. Do not worry because your emails are probably in my mailbox. I’m still on my break and only updated yesterday because it was a brand new event so I wanted to provide a full coverage. Thank you for the emails, collaborations, visits, comments and continued support! The EGW “family” rocks!
Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire was the big winner at this year’s British Independent Film Awards.
The film won both best film and best director at the BIFAs, hosted by James Nesbitt at London’s Old Billingsgate Market. Slumdog Millionaire actor Dev Patel was also named newcomer of the year.
Boyle were presented with the awards by Joe Wright and Eva Green. He dedicated the awards to the people of Mumbai, where the film was made.
Another big winner on the night was Steve McQueen, whose feature debut Hunger won the Douglas Hickox award, best actor for Michael Fassbender and best technical achievement for cinematographer Sean Bobbit.
Best actress was Vera Farmiga for The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. Both best supporting actor and actress awards went to stars of Mike Leigh’s Happy-Go-Lucky, Alexis Zegerman and Eddie Marsan.
Martin McDonagh won best screenplay honours for In Bruges. “Apologies to the people of Bruges. It isn’t really that shitty,” he joked.
Many thanks to our marvellous Russian friend Olga Iv. I’d also like to thank Penphiselea for sending a scan from the index page, which was her fave from the entire shoot! Eva’s smile is really beautiful, don’t you all agree?
I’ll comment more some other day or later, who knows. I’m busy with my break.
Eva is on the cover of the December issue of Tatler Russia (thanks to spot for the heads-up)!!! Russian friends, we need your help to get scans from it!!! Here’s what the cover looks like (thanks to Lola):
Self confessed “eccentric dresser” Eva Green has earned something of a reputation for her unusual red carpet choices. And in Beijing for the opening of a new exhibition the 28-year-old Casino Royale star didn’t disappoint, turning up in a show-stopping lime-green affair.
Beijing may have drawn sports fans for the Olympics this past summer, but this weekend, an altogether different crowd is flying in. On Saturday, Charlize Theron, Eva Green, Marion Cotillard, Michelle Yeoh and Maggie Chung attended an opening reception and gala dinner to celebrate the exhibit “Christian Dior & Chinese Artists†at the Ullens Center for Contemporary Art.
EDIT: I’ve added 4 new MQs thanks to shadowyxu.
Last but not least, as you’ve probably noticed, we have a brand new gorgeous layout! Many thanks to Frederik for his amazing design skills and Annie for the coding!
Get to know Miss G’s bedroom, her swimming class, her students Di Radfield, Poppy and Fiamma (played by MarÃa Valverde), the one she’ll fall for.
Thanks to Sandrine for the heads-up and Tango_down for the scans!

Visit on the set, in Dublin, of Jordan Scott’s first movie, Ridley’s daughter. She directs Eva Green in Cracks, the feverish and sensual story of an English teacher in the 40’s who’s going to live a love passion for one of her students.
Vanity Fair (Spain) - November 2008, thanks to Astrea –> Two pages about Eva’s recent appearance at the Seville party where she used the same dress as in Moscow. The words in Spanish says: The French actress Eva Green did a spectacular entrance in the “Casa de Pilatos” (Pilatos’ House).
I absolutely love contributions! Thanks to everyone who contributes and comments. It’s a pleasure to run a site that has so many lovely and loyal visitors that helps this site get better and better and also a friendly place!
“We started off something in Casino Royale. We had a great storyline, we had a great book, we had a novel by Ian Fleming that was solid and had a love story in it — a really strong love story. And Eva Green played this great part, a wonderful performance, and when it came around to shooting this movie it was like, we can’t just push that aside. We have to develop that; we have to tie up the loose ends here. And that’s what Quantum of Solace is about — it’s him finding his quantum of solace. He’s not on a vendetta. He’s not after revenge. He’s after finding his place.”
Inside the brand new issue of the Italian VANITY FAIR #45 12-11-08 there is a full page size photo of Eva Green (see the preview). If anyone can donate a scan, please email me! Francesca kindly sent me a scan! Thank you!
Starting next week I’ll be taking a break for two weeks. So, during this time, there’ll be most likely no updates. I will however ask a dear friend of mine to moderate the comments, and, maybe, upload new pictures of Eva attends a new super important event. If she takes a little longer to moderate the comments than I usually do, please be patient. By the way, sometimes links go into the spam folder. So if you’re a legit member with a legit link and your link wasn’t added to the comments page, leava a friendly comment without links saying that you’ve sent another one with links. This way we’ll look into the spam folder. I may still pop up to say hello during my absence, but it’s not sure yet. Anyway, keep visiting, chatting here in the comments section, browsing the site, etc.
I know that not everyone likes “Twilight” here but some do. A good friend of mine’s just opened this fansite today, so I’m posting her link here to support her and let the world know about her brand new site.
And new or old Eva photos and articles are always welcome. 
I’d also like to thank Penphiselea for sending a scan from the index page, which was her fave from the entire shoot!
