John Blake Publishing is delighted to announce the publication of Eddie Redmayne: The Biography, in which author Emily Herbert delves into the background of an actor who inspired a huge and devoted fan following known as ‘Redmayniacs’.

When Eddie won the Oscar in February 2015 for his stunning portrayal of the scientist Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything, he was already a high-profile actor. He starred as Marius
Pontmercy in the award-winning 2012 musical smash hit Les Misérables and in 2016 he will play one of the first known recipients of transgender surgery in The Danish Girl.

Eddie has led a fascinating life. He gained education at the prestigious Eton and Trinity College, Cambridge, and quietly worked his way up to the heights of an international film career. In 2014 he settled down with his childhood sweetheart Hannah whom he married in a ‘winter wonderland’- inspired ceremony.

In the book, Emily Herbert offers readers an insight into the little known facts about Eddie, such as his acting debut as a teenager in Animal Ark, his stage work in London while at university and his groundbreaking work in films that confront some of society’s most explicit taboos. This book is certainly an ideal gift for admirers of one of the most exciting actors around today.
