As you may already know, Nicholas came to our ‘attention’ as prince charming in Prime Video's 'Cinderella' with Camila Cabello, before he literally stole out heart alongside Sofia Carson in Netflix movie, 'Purple Hearts.' But it was playing the closet gay prince Henry in 'Red, White and Royal Blue' that he really captured our hearts, as the Prince fell for the son of the first female president of USA, played by Taylor Zakhar Perez.
Now he's starring in new TV show from Sky, 'Mary and George' which is the story of King James I's lover, George Villiers played by Nick and his scheming mother played by Julianne Moore.
But it's another Nicholas Galitzine rom-com movie that is REALLY getting us talking and our pulses raising. Based on fan fiction about Harry Styles, Amazon Prime Video's 'The Idea of You' sees Nicholas's Hayes Campbell fall for Solene, a single mother of fan, played by Anne Hathaway. It's GREAT and you will love it!
Today Nicholas talks about everything from the need for more men to be better allies to women (HERE, HERE), to dealing with teenage anxiety overcoming imposter syndrome and finally feeling comfortable in who he is and his identity.
What I love most from this Nicholas Galitzine interview, however is his words on becoming your own cheerleader!

I can't believe that people don't realize just how much Nicholas himself did in the Red, White and Royal Blue. I can say this with confidence, having been on stage for almost 40 years and working with many different actors and singers. I was shocked when I saw him perform, how good he was.

He was an amazing star in that film. It brings me to tears of sadness and joy, and I've watched it many times for the good feeling I have at the end.

Thank you so much for giving Nick his due! I agree that he isn't just talented . . . he is madly gifted. And he embraces roles that force him to grow as an actor/singer and learn new skills. He has charisma, he has stage-presence, and he is most of all HIMSELF. I hope to see him in a stage musical one day!

Purple Hearts was my first viewing of Nicholas G. Loved it. Then, The Idea Of You was my 2nd viewing. I’ve watched it 5 times in the last 4 days. So much goes through my mind. And yes, this IS a coming of age movie…. For each character. That was my first reaction to the movie. Why can’t a woman in her 40s experience a CoA season? Why can a young man in his 20s? Nicholas and Anne portrayed their characters’ emotions so authentically. I literally felt every emotion that Solèn experienced. I literally felt every emotion that Hayes felt. They were so good in this. So good. This movie just took the number one spot in my list of favorite romcoms. Btw, I’ve been on a Nick binge all week after my first viewing of The Idea Of You. So much skill in the arts.

I watched this movie with complete open ness as a 65 year old baby boomer. I have never seen a love story in my life I was so moved! I laugh and cried with every scene given in part with the amazing chemistry of the primary characters of this film! I've played the same scenes where the love and sadness I could feel originally can be felt over and over. Lol I eventually I think I will have the script etched in my memory. ❤

@ashelizabethart 28 күн бұрын

I'm like six minutes in and already crying because I've been trying so hard lately to go after the things that I want in my life, and it's just felt like setback after setback, feeling like I'm never gonna get anywhere, and then like y'all talked about, we're surrounded by images of people living these seemingly perfect lives or doing the things we wish we could do, and I end up falling into the comparison trap and feeling horrible about myself. I know that in reality, each setback is a learning experience which ultimately helps me go forward, but it can be hard to remember that in the moment. Sorry for the ramble- I just have a lot of feelings about this sort of stuff lol. Thanks for the awesome podcast!

100% you will achieve what you want because what you just called rambling, is a healthy recognition of your feelings, your wants, your fears, the obstacles you're facing, and then some of the steps you are taking to help you achieve your goals. Like Nick has said, be a big cheerleader for yourself, be kind to yourself. Dont apologise for how you feel, ramble away until you get what you want.

Then years later I watched Purple heart and thought I know him from another movie and I was impressed by his performance. And now I want him to play a young James Bond.

Fantastic interview so introspective I have more admiration for Nicholas he is such a wise soul at his tender young age! Have never seen Nicholas before The Idea of You have watched it everyday and have seen so many little things that he did to make his character so real and authentic his acting was superb. I then went and watched Royal and even bought Mary and George to watch these stunning performances! Nicholas is a gift to the acting world! I am a woman of age when I say his thoughts today have given me a new perspective on life!❤

I first watched Nicholas in High Strung, as times goes on his acting becomes more and more solid and more confidence, like i can really feels every time he really ground himself in those roles like we know its Nick but at the same time not and even his accent is different example Nick vs George (in Mary & George), they're both English but the tone of their voices is so different...so proud he received recognition for his works and hope he will have more success in future

I liked his acting in the characters I've seen him in, but this interview (which is the best I've seen of him) puts him in another dimension of adulthood and humanity. At the beginning I'm sorry to say that I found the interviewer leading to easy answers and in fact I think he was doing it til I think he realised that Nick has a personality of his own and then I saw respect in the interviewer and I enjoyed Nick's answers/comments inmensely. Thank you

No shade, but it's clear that they don't know much about kpop groups. BTS, Seventeen, Stray Kids, and Ateez are both boy band members and singers/songwriters. They write, produce, and compose a great deal of their own music.
