Jacob Tremblay: a promising young actor
While you might not recognize the name Jacob Tremblay, you may have seen him in the movie called Wonder (《奇迹男孩》). He plays the role of Auggie, a boy with facial deformities (面部畸形). The director calls the eleven-year-old boy "a once-in-a-lifetime actor of his generation". So what about some background information to explain all this success?
Born in 2006, Jacob started appearing in TV dramas at the age of five. His breakthrough came in Room in 2015. In that movie, he plays Jack, a young boy who has been kept in a small room since he was born. His first-rate portrayal (角色的刻画) of this role won him a lot of praise and several important awards. People then really began to notice this very talented young actor.
Jacob impressed people again with his acting skills in Wonder. Although the movie audience can see only his eyes under the heavy make-up, they can feel the emotions of the character. People also wonder how he was able to get inside the character so successfully without a shared experience in real life.
The young actor had, in fact, done a lot of research on children with facial deformities before shooting began. He sent a video to children with facial deformities and asked them to send him letters telling him anything they wanted him to know. He always kept the letters by his side and read them over and over again between takes (录制). He said those letters helped him prepare for scenes with emotional content.
Jacob's performance on screen has made him one of the most promising actors in his age group. Hopefully, we will see a lot more of him in the future—on the silver screen or on TV.
1. Is Jacob Tremblay thought highly of by the director of Wonder?
2. When did Jacob start appearing in TV dramas?
3. Which role won him a lot of praise and several important awards?
4. How could he know children with facial deformities so well and get inside the character successfully?
5. What did the letters from children with facial deformities help him with?
