The Life and Many Romances of Jude Law

Also in 2001, he appeared in Steven Spielberg’s A.I. Artificial Intelligence, playing Gigolo Joe in a futuristic story about artificial life, love, loneliness, and what it means to be human. The role gave Law a stylized, strange, and highly controlled kind of screen presence.

It also kept him aligned with major directors during a crucial stage of his rise. After period drama, war film, and psychological thriller, Law was now moving into science fiction, proving his image could shift again.
