High-Rise is an entirely British affair based on the book by Mr JG Ballard that details how a 40-storey London apartment block collapses into dystopian savagery. His other film I Saw the Light sees Mr Hiddleston portraying singer-songwriter Mr Hank Williams.<\/p>\n<p><b>You\u2019ve had a busy weekend.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Yes, very. High-class problems, I guess. It feels pretty good to spend just one weekend presenting almost an entire year of work to the world. And they couldn\u2019t be more contrasting pieces.<\/p>\n<p><b>High-Rise is an orgy of booze and sex set in a 1970s concrete apartment block.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s about right. Just like everyday life.<\/p>\n<p><b>And you have some nude scenes.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I play a character who, at the beginning, is prone to nude sunbathing. So, yes, there is a degree of nakedness, which may or may not be regrettable.<\/p>\n<p><b>Whereas in the Hank Williams biopic you are a rhinestone cowboy.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I doff my 10-gallon hat to the wardrobe department.<\/p>\n<p><b>Did you ever doubt whether you, as an Englishman, could play the king of the hillbillies?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>There were moments of doubt, but all the best things I\u2019ve done have had moments of doubt. It\u2019s about commitment in the end. I went to live with this multi-Grammy-winning artist in Nashville called Rodney Crowell for five weeks who was my tutor in the ways of the blues. I\u2019d get up in the morning and run nine miles as I had to lose weight as Hank was so thin, then Rodney and I would sing for seven hours a day.<\/p>\n<p><b>How have the Williams family reacted to you in the role?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve heard from Holly Williams, who is Hank\u2019s granddaughter. She wrote me the most unbelievable letter; one of those letters you keep forever. She said: \u201cIt\u2019s not been an easy family because he left some things behind, but you treated everybody with respect and without judgment.\u201d Which was just such a huge relief for us.<\/p>\n<p><b>What\u2019s the best advice you\u2019ve ever received?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I had a teacher at drama school at RADA [Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts] who told me: \u201cNever look over your shoulder and never look back.\u201d Which is so true and applicable in so many situations. You can\u2019t compare yourself to other people, and looking back isn\u2019t helpful.<\/p>\n<p><b>What are the rules you live by?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Be kind. Be on time. Take the work seriously \u2013 don\u2019t take yourself too seriously.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"tmblr-full\"><img src=\"https:\/\/78.media.tumblr.com\/4bc13b9a745bcc24f5570b4590634389\/tumblr_inline_nutjqloTSy1sa6z36_540.jpg\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/p\/7ss7UtMVRm\/\" target=\"_blank\">Behind the scenes at the interview<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>OH MY GAHDD!
