Nicholas Galitzine talks about transitioning from roles in historical dramas to starring in a modern romance

Nicholas Galitzine's versatility shines through in his film roles. In the much-anticipated movie "The Idea of You," alongside Anne Hathaway, he portrays a young man involved in a romance with Hathaway's character, who is older. The film has garnered attention for its exploration of a romance bridging age gaps, yet Galitzine said the film is a deeper exploration of self-discovery.

"I think a wonderful movie about a woman turning 40 you know, rediscovering her sexual identity with this younger man. And I think it's a really interesting unique take," said Galitzine.

Transitioning from a contemporary setting to a historical drama, Galitzine also stars in "Mary and George," portraying George Villiers, a figure with a notorious legacy in the English court. Despite initially knowing "nothing at all" about Villiers, Galitzine was "blown away" by the character's rich history and influence.
