Jude Law didn’t talk to Nicholas Hoult on The Order set

As a cinephile who’s had the privilege of witnessing a plethora of performances, I must say that Jude Law’s portrayal of Terry Husk in “The Order” is nothing short of captivating. The actor’s ability to immerse himself into a character, especially one as complex and intense as this, is truly commendable.

Right now, Jude Law graces our television screens as a key player in the Star Wars Disney Plus series titled “Skeleton Crew.” Interestingly, he’s not just confined to the small screen, as this week sees him return on the big screen in a fresh movie called “The Order.

Under the guidance of Australian director Justin Kurzel, this dramatic tale unfolds with Law portraying a fictional FBI agent named Terry Husk. In the 1980s setting, he is on the trail of Bob Matthews, a real-life neo-Nazi activist, who is skillfully brought to life by Nicholas Hoult.

He clarified that it seemed inappropriate to disrupt the opposition’s efforts. Additionally, it happened that he was engrossed in many of his activities, while she was occupied with her own, which were largely unrelated, almost like different narratives.

It seems that Justin seemed to appreciate it, and eventually, he subtly supported the plan to keep us separated. Eventually, our first encounter occurred in front of the cameras during the scene where we meet, with me asking, “Are you tailing me?

“You see, you cling to any shred of truth or reasonableness, which is why it seemed sensible not to sit down for lunch and discuss football. It felt like keeping our energies separate was a more respectful approach towards the narrative we were crafting.

Besides making every effort to steer clear of Hoult, an unforeseen factor that aided Law in slipping into character was coming down with a cold right before filming started.

He recalled that it was just before we started shooting in Calgary where we had been practicing, and I came down with a cold, something I rarely experience,” he clarified.

Justin exclaimed, ‘Here it is! This is him. You need to keep up the sniffly, glassy-eyed, drained demeanor.’ It seemed like he was nearly spent, and when we managed to capture that essence, we knew exactly how to replicate it.

The main character in the movie isn’t modeled after a single real individual, but rather a composite of several law enforcement officers who played crucial roles in the actual pursuit of Matthews. The film is heavily inspired by real events.

In 1983, a string of escalating bank robberies, forgeries, and armed truck heists left residents across the Pacific Northwest in fear.

In a small-town setting like Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, an FBI agent, working alone, starts to suspect that the series of crimes in the area aren’t being committed by ordinary criminals driven by financial gain, but rather by a dangerous domestic terrorist group. This group appears to be influenced and motivated by a charismatic leader with radical views, who is planning a destructive conflict against the U.S. government.
