Jasper Rees

A major and definitive portrait of Sir Michael Gambon, one of the greatest actors of the last fifty years who died in 2023 
 
Jasper Rees, the acclaimed Sunday Times bestselling author of Let’s Do It: The Authorised Biography of Victoria Wood, interviewed Gambon more than any other journalist alive, and has been granted exclusive access to Gambon’s personal archive and effects. Rees is in the process of conducting over one hundred interviews with actors, playwrights and directors who across a career that spanned more than half a century were witness to some of Gambon’s most magnificent performances, including Penelope Wilton, Alan Ayckbourn, Brian Cox, Eileen Atkins, David Hare, Judi Dench, Christopher Hampton, Simon Russell Beale, Richard Eyre, Patricia Hodge, Simon Callow, Stephen Poliakoff and his closest friend in theatre, Oliver Cotton. 
 
The biography spans Gambon’s epoch-defining roles on stage, television and screen: the early years as a spear-carrier in Laurence Olivier’s newly formed National Theatre, his pre-eminence as an interpreter of Harold Pinter and Alan Ayckbourn, the triumphs in The Life of Galileo and A View from the Bridge, the screen roles that won him global fame, from Philip Marlow in The Singing Detective to Dumbledore in the Harry Potter films. It promises to be a deeply personal, moving and surprising book that will enrich our understanding of an acting legend who was as hilarious and elusive off stage – renowned for spinning mischievously tall tales – as he was mesmerising and chameleon-like on stage.

The Authorised Biography

Kyle MacLachlan

When a young Kyle MacLachlan was plucked from the theater stage to star in Dune, his first Hollywood blockbuster movie—complete with a forty-million-dollar budget and folks in his ear telling him he’d already made it big—he assumed there would be nowhere for him to go but up. But with Dune’s disappointing box office reception, a career filled with potential took a nosedive, leaving him worse off than when he’d started. Little did MacLachlan know that forty years later, the carefully curated selection of characters he’d choose over the course of his remarkable career—in provocative films like Blue Velvet and Showgirls, as well as hit television shows like Sex and the City and Desperate Housewives—would establish him as one of the most distinctive actors of his generation. 
 
In Fictional Selves, MacLachlan offers an utterly original account of his offbeat journey in Hollywood and the projects that have shaped who he is today. Insightful, refreshingly earnest, and droll, he chronicles his humble beginnings in idyllic Yakima, Washington; the lifelong hesitance to fame that shadowed him early on, manifesting in the alter ego he aptly calls “Other Kyle”; behind-the-scenes stories from his most famous roles, and lessons learned along the way; his unwavering and long-lasting relationship with late director and close friend David Lynch; on and off-screen romantic entanglements; his own take on being a father; and much more. 
 
With candor and vulnerability, these stories offer an honest look into the remarkable—and often unpredictable—life of an enduring and endearing Hollywood icon.
