Jude Law
- Profession: Actor
- Place/Date of Birth: Lewisham, London, 29 December 2020
- Assiociated with: Sadie Frost, Sienna Miller
"Jude and Sienna decided it was over last week. It was a mutual agreement. It is very sad for both of them," a pal said.
Cold Mountain star Jude and 24-year-old Sienna split last year after the actor admitted having an affair.
He then publically apologised but the Layer Cake actress called off their eight-month engagement and dumped him.
The lovers were then reunited but have had an on/off romance since then.
Jude speaks of nanny shame - Oct 2, 2020
Jude Law has told how he attempted to make things right with Sienna Miller after he was unfaithful.
The Alfie star split with the actress after details of his affair with nanny Daisy Wright were exposed.
In an interview with GQ, previewed in the Daily Mirror, he said: "I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I’ve apologised to the people I think matter in that situation. There’s not really an awful lot more I can do or say.
"You have to take it on the chin and learn somehow to hold your head up high and face up to it."
Mind you, he’s sorry - but only up to a point.
He said: "You can’t spend your life apologising. You can hold your hands up and say, ’I f***** up.’ You can do everything in your power to make that pain better.
"But what kind of a person would you be to then spend the rest of your life torturing yourself?"
He added: "People say ’You’re not so golden now’. I never said I was golden, anyway."
Thanks for clearing that up.
Jude Law is set to play Superman’s arch enemy - Aug 8, 2020
The ‘Alfie’ actor is in talks to appear as the Man of Steel’s most hated foe General Zod in the ‘Superman Returns’ sequel. The role of General Zod was made famous by Terence Stamp, who played the character in 1980 movie ‘Superman 2’ – and producers see a resemblance between Stamp and Law.
A source told Britain’s Daily Express newspaper: “Zod is going to be the main bad guy in the second film. Some say they should use an unknown but the director Bryan Singer is looking at Jude. The similarities between him and Stamp are clear.”
The 33-year-old has so far steered clear of superhero movies, fearing they would typecast him and ruin his chances of starring in other film genres. Just two years ago Law turned down the role of Superman.
He said at the time: “My greatest fear is that a role like that would define me. Do I want to be known from here on in as Superman? I’d feel the same way about James Bond. They are iconic characters and there is also pressure in stepping into someone else’s tights.”
The ‘Superman Returns’ sequel will see Brandon Routh return as the Man of Steel and Kevin Spacey will reprise his role as Lex Luther.
Jude has been on a date with Sienna - June 22, 2020
Jude Law has been on a romantic date with ex, Sienna Miller - watching football in a New York bar. The couple - who first got together after meeting on the set of the 2004 movie ’Alfie’ - were spotted canoodling in Fiddlesticks in New York’s West Village watching England playing in the World Cup on TV. An onlooker said: "They had a great time watching the football it seems their relationship is back on."

Jude’s early stage roles included that of Foxtrot Darling in The Fastest Clock In The Universe and Michael in Indiscrections (he would reprise this role on Broadway later in his career). Following a part in crappy soap opera Families, Jude was cast in cult Brit-flick Shopping, alongside Sadie Frost and took a part in the acclaimed Wilde. Moving to Hollywood proved, to begin with, a good choice for Law who garnered recognition in Gattaca, Road to Perdition and The Talented Mr Ripley, for which he was nominated for an Oscar (he was again nominated for Cold Mountain).
However, Law’s reign of the box office was not to last. Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow was a major miss while the remake of Alfie was one of 2004’s worst films. Jude is currently working on Sleuth and Mr Blueberry Nights. There are also rumours that he will appear in the next Superman movie.
Jude’s personal life has taken as many twists and turns as his professional one. From his turbulent marriage to fellow Natural Nylon owner Sadie Frost, which culminated in rumours of wife swapping and affairs to his on/off engagement to young actress Sienna Miller who called time on their relationship after finding out that Jude had been shagging the nanny Jude has become a legendary cad. He has two sons, Rafferty and Rudy and a daughter, Iris with Sadie plus a receding hairline which bears much resemblance to that of Phil Collins’. Just think of that next time you’re having a ’Dave fantasy’ ladies...
