Jude Law is taking on the mantle of one of England's most famous monarchs in Firebrand, a movie about Henry VIII and his sixth wife Katherine Parr. He decided to go method for the role – in a way that wasn't hugely popular with his co-stars.
"I read several interesting accounts that you could smell Henry three rooms away. His leg was rotting so badly. He hid it with rose oil," Law said during the Cannes press conference for Firebrand (via Variety). "I thought it would have a great impact if I smelt awful."
