I had a first hand account at the San Diego Comic Con and got to see Jude law up close and personal. He’s exrodinary and really enjoyed the roll he plays as Joe “sky captain” Sullivan.
He was incredibly adorable throughout the entire panel, although distracted sometimes by a piece of chocolate
Girl: This question is for Jude Law
Jude: *silence*….Hmm? Oh goodness, I’m sorry! I’m so riveted by this piece of chocolate. I’ve never seen any white chocolate this WHITE before! *gnaws on it still in the wrapper* What was the question?
There are tons of instances where is dashing and suave, but all in all seems like an incredibly enjoyable man. Pictures were of course taken ^_^
Girl: I’ve heard rumors you’re going to be superman… is this true? Or if not, would you consider taking the roll if offered?
Jude: *completely serious face* I’m Sky Captain *gnaws on chocolate in wrapper*
AH! Those quotes are so adorable! I can totally hear him saying that. How can you not love this man? I truly hope I get the chance to meet him in person someday…
