A Couple of Classics and a Rocker: Joyce’s Dream Role(s) for Damian Lewis

Hi everyone! Damianista here. Fan Fun ‘Dream Role for Damian Lewis’ series continues today with a true fan and a good friend. Joyce and I randomly met at Damian’s NY Times Talks in New York back in 2016. Well, it was not really random, was it – given that I was the first and Joyce was the second fan in the line? 😀 It goes without saying that we hit it off immediately and have been in touch since. Joyce wrote about how her first binge brought her Damian Lewis in our earlier “How did you become a fan of Damian Lewis?” project, too! And now she is giving us her dream role(s) for Damian: A Couple of Classics and a Rocker! Huge thanks go to Joyce for her brilliant imagination and story. ENJOY!

Starring as Himself: Christine’s Dream Role for Damian Lewis

Fan Fun Dream Role for Damian Lewis series continues! Today’s dream role story comes from a very special fan, Christine Wilson. You know we always talk about the inspiration Damian constantly provides for us to write about him and his brilliant work. And, in Christine’s case, this inspiration turned into a book that you may have heard earlier: Meeting Damian Lewis. JaniaJania wrote a wonderful review of the book here and we highly recommend you to read it — it is brilliant! It was our true pleasure to have Christine share with us how she became a Damian Lewis fan and how the book idea came about, well, over a bottle of wine, maybe two, with a friend a few years ago! And today she is here to cast Damian in the film version of, well, her book, of course! ENJOY! Continue reading “Starring as Himself: Christine’s Dream Role for Damian Lewis”

Fan Fun with Damian Lewis is Calling All Fans (Again!)

Hi everyone!

We aspired to launch yet another FUN  Fan Fun project last year and asked for your help. Yet, we had to take a break from the project when Helen sadly passed away. Now that we’ve resumed the project, we need your help!

What is the dream role you have in mind for Damian Lewis?

THAT is the question!

In my not-very-humble opinion, the way he uses his physicality, his mind-blowing precision as well as his incredible range collectively make Damian one of the best, if not the best, working actors that we have today. The evidence presents itself in the fantastic characters he brought to life in his acting career of more than two decades varying from WWII hero Major Winters to homeless William Keane to billionaire Bobby Axelrod.
