RHYS’ PIECES

BOOK YOU’RE READING Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut

SHOW YOU’RE BINGEING Slow Horses with Gary Oldman. It’s brilliant.

FAVORITE TIME OF DAY Sunset! I just love the end of the day. It’s like, O.K., everything’s done, there’s no more work emails, the day is done. So now we just kind of relax.

NICKNAME GROWING UP Bic. I cut myself so badly with a Bic razor that for a short period of time, I was called Bic. I was like 12, but there was nothing to shave!

BEEN GOOGLING LATELY I don’t know why I’m telling you this, because Keri doesn’t know. If she knows, she’ll kill me. But there’s no heating ¨in my shed] and it’s been incredibly cold here in New York, so today I was Googling a kerosene heater—which, in a wooden shed, is probably a terrible idea! Now Googling, “How likely is the shed to combust if I use a kerosene heater?”

LISTENING TO The last album I listened to is Rum, Sodomy & the Lash by The Pogues.

ROLE YOU’D LOVE TO PLAY There’s a Welsh Braveheart story I have been trying to get made. His name was Owain Glyndŵr; my father was named after him. He was kind of the last Welsh prince who led the rebellion against England in the 16th century. You know, big, epic sword number. I’ve been knocking on doors for years, going, “Please can we make it?”

FAVORITE WINE Either a Pomerol or a Saint-Émilion from Bordeaux. There’s a Pomerol called Château de Sales which I drink far too much of.

JOB YOU’D ENJOY AS MUCH AS ACTING Cowboy. When I lived in L.A., I became friendly with a professional rodeo cowboy. I grew up riding horses and I had my own horses when I was in L.A. I used to keep them in GriĦth Park, so I’d ride every day and I’ve spent time on ranches and just loved it.
