Jeeves & Wooster In Perfect Nonsense @ Duke Of York

Matthew Macfayden (The Pillars Of The Earth, Ripper Street, The Three Musketeers) was currently playing in a play called Jeeves & Wooster In Perfect Nonsense. When the play was finished he came out of the stagedoor and signed my posters of The Three Musketeers and Robin Hood, my booklet of The Pillars Of The Earth and a few photos before posing for a picture with me.


Celebrities @ Soho Hotel

While I was waiting at the Soho hotel in London I saw a couple of celebrities with whom I made pictures with.
 
Tom Hardy (The Dark Knight Rises, Inception, Warrior) is always nice to his fans. When he left the hotel together with his dog he was more then willing to pose for a photo with me.
John Hawkes (Contagion, Lincoln) signed my poster of Contagion and also posed for a photo.
Stephen Fry (Alice In Wonderland, The Hobbit) posed for a photo.

Andy Serkis @ Random London Meet

I Met Andy Serkis when I was on my way to a theatre stagedoor. Luckily he was nice as always and stopped (although he was with his family) to take a picture with me and he also signed my poster of Tintin and my DVD-cover of Wild Bill.

Twelve Angry Men @ Garrick Theatre

I visited the stagedoor of the Garrick theatre already last month to meet Robert Vaughn and Jeff Fahey. Because my picture with Robert Vaughn wasn't really good last month I gave it another try. This time he signed my poster of The Towering Inferno and posed for a photo. Luckily for me, this time it was a good picture. Ow Yeah, and Jeff Fahey signed a few more DVD-covers and pictures...


Vale Of Health @ Hampstead Theatre

Another theatre I visited was the Hampstead theatre, where Gethin Anthony starred in a series of plays called Vale Of Health. Gethin Anthony is mostly known due to his part of Renly Baratheon in the TV-show Game Of Thrones. He was very friendly, signed my Game Of Thrones poster, a few photos and posed for a picture with me.


Other Desert Cities @ The Old Vic Theatre

 When  I was in London for the Empire Awards and the U.K. premiere of Naoh, I also visited a few theatre stage doors to meet some celebrities. One of the actresses I wanted to meet was Martha Plimpton, who is mostly known as Stef (her character) in The Goonies. Other than that she also played a mainpart in the TV-show Raising Hope amongst others. When she left via the stagedoor she signed my DVD-cover of the Goonies, a few photo's and she posed for a photo with me.


Movie Days Germany 2014

I decided to go this years Movie Days convention in Germany, mainly because their special guests were people you actually never see anywhere else. At least, I don't think most of them will soon show up at another convention. The convention itself wasn't really worth talking much about, and it clearly that the organisation tried to make as much money out of the guests as they possibly could. Considering the amount of paid visitors, it can be said with a certainty this convention lost money and a lot of it...
 
Laurence R. Harvey is, at the moment, only known as Martin (the main character) in The Human Centipede 2. Soon, he can also be seen in The Human Centipede 3 in a different role. It was really fun to talk to him about The Human Centipede franchise. I did decide to take part in the photoshoot to capture this moment forever.
 Robert LaSardo is mostly known for his parts in movies like Death Race, Leon and Out For Justice. But for me he is mostly known due his part as Escobar Gallardo in the TV-show Nip/Tuck. He was wlso very friendly and we talked a lot about The Human Centipede 3, in which he plays a role. I also did the photoshoot with him.
 Josef Altin is mostly known due to his part as Pypar in the TV-Show Game Of Thrones. He signed my poster and posed for a photo.
 Don "The Dragon" Wilson is an award winning martial arts master. He also played the main part in a few B-action movies, like the Bloodfist movies. He was more then willing to pose for a photo (for free) 
 Paul Logan is mostly known because he played the lead actor in B-horror movie Mega Piranha. He was also more then willing to pose for a photo (for free).
 Silvio Simac is mostly known due to small parts in movies like Transporter 3, D.O.A. and Undisputed 2.

Celebrities @ Covent Garden Hotel

When I was in London I decided to wait at a hotel to see if there were any celebrities staying. I decided to wait at the covent Garden hotel at the day of the Bafta's. I saw two people leaving the hotel while I was waiting for only a very short time.
 
Robert Forster (Jackie Brown, Alligator, Mulholland Dr.) left the hotel and was very friendly. He was making pictures with everybody, including me. This is certainly someone I loved to meet, as you almost never see him.
)  Amy Adams (Man Of Steel, American Hustle, The Fighter) signed my poster of Man Of Steel and posed for a photo.
