The star of the new Amazon Prime Video series spoke exclusively with HELLO! all about remaking the smash-hit French series
April 28, 2022 - 10:45 BST Eve Crosbie Remakes can go either one of two ways: they can turn into soaring successes that eclipse the original , or they can crash and burn. We have a strong feeling that the new British reboot of Call My Agent!, which makes its debut on Amazon Prime Video today, will find itself joining the ranks of the former.
However, Pirates of the Caribbean star Jack, who plays Jonathan Nightingale, one of the head agents at a fictional London-based talent agency, has not watched the original series and has no plans to do so anytime soon. "What you're trying to do is create things that haven't happened but could or might have believably," John says, revealing that the stage fright crisis Dominic West goes through in episode three was inspired in part by an old actor friend who admitted that he fantasised about walking out of the stage door and into the streets of Soho ahead of the curtains going up.
"You don't just get points for turning up," Jack says, revealing that Downton Abbey star Dominic, along with the likes of Helena Bonham Carter, David Oyelowo Emma Corrin and Bridgerton's breakout star Phoebe Dyenvor who appear as fictionalised versions of themselves were really put through their paces and asked to bring their A-game to the show.
