Após ter sua estreia mundial no Festival de Cannes com exibição na semana dos diretores, a sequência de The Souvenir foi tão elogiada quanto sua primeira parte.
Além de ter a honra de trabalhar com a diretora Joanna Hogg de quem é admirador do trabalho, Joe conseguiu se destacar (mesmo tendo pouco tempo de tela) e receber seus primeiros elogios vindos da crítica especializada. Abaixo separamos alguns trechos do que foi dito sobre o filme e sua atuação:
IndieWire: “ The Souvenir Part II ”, um trabalho extraordinário de meta-ficção que continua de onde o filme anterior parou e subverte a meticulosidade de sua construção para iluminar por que Hogg sentiu a necessidade de fazê-lo em primeiro lugar. Tão vulnerável quanto seu antecessor e texturizado com o mesmo sentido aveludado de devir, “Parte II” adiciona novas camadas de profundidade e distância ao espelho da autorreflexão de Hogg.
Joe Alwyn aparece para uma esplêndida rapidinha de duas cenas como um estudante editor de bom coração.
Essas pessoas vêm e vão sem muito alarde, já que “The Souvenir Part II” é – como seu antecessor, se um pouco menos – um filme quebrado em fragmentos de memória
Sreen Daily: The Souvenir: Part II é um filme para saborear, visual e sensorialmente.
Os atores aqui se encaixam facilmente neste mundo, de Joe Alwyn como o editor gay de Julie aos professores universitários que lamentam sua falta de profissionalismo (um roteiro amarrado com fita vermelha) e a decisão de não fazer um filme sobre uma família pobre em Sunderland para optar por algo mais efêmero. Os espectadores devem ficar contentes com o que ela fez.
The Hollywood Reporter: É um relato extraordinariamente revelador de uma mulher descobrindo não apenas quem ela quer ser, mas armazenando experiências, boas e más, enquanto gradualmente desenvolve a linguagem e a maturidade para transformá-las em arte. Hogg costuma trabalhar a partir de um tratamento básico com pouco diálogo, moldando cada cena com seus colaboradores à medida que a filmagem avança.
Julie (Honor Swinton Byrne) salta entre três novos homens enquanto ela luta para descobrir se ela realmente sente falta de Anthony ou apenas da intimidade do companheirismo. Ela tem um caso de uma noite com a estrela do musical de Patrick (Charlie Heaton), ela se esforça para comunicar o que deseja do protagonista masculino de seu próprio filme (Harris Dickinson) e ela interpreta mal os sinais de seu simpático editor gay (Joe Alwyn) em um momento carinhosamente embaraçoso, lindamente interpretado por ambos os atores.
Variety: Tudo está bem e nada está certo no filme de Joanna Hogg , uma sequência deslumbrante e frágil de seu atordoante semiautobiográfico de maioridade. Embora totalmente distinto em suas fixações temáticas e estéticas, “The Souvenir Part II” confina com seu antecessor para formar um dos retratos mais íntimos e expressivos do artista quando jovem.
Filmar a vida conforme Julie experimenta, no entanto, é mais fácil de dizer do que fazer. O elenco e a equipe de seu projeto de graduação têm dificuldade em perceber sua realidade, para começar, e as disputas no set que se seguiram respondem por grande parte da comédia esporádica e surpreendentemente abundante do filme. Um editor gentil (Joe Alwyn, em um cameo irônico e terno) faz uma abordagem mais diplomática ao processo idiossincrático de Julie, enquanto Hogg deixa para o espectador intuir se seu jovem alter ego está acima de sua cabeça ou não.
No twitter Joe foi citado pelo editor executivo da Variety Ramin Setoodeh: “Mesmo que ele esteja apenas em algumas cenas, Joe Alwyn é ótimo em ‘The Souvenir Parte 2’.”
The first trailers for The Last Letter from Your Lover from Netflix and StudioCanal have been released. Watch them below and check out screen captures of Joe as his character Laurence Stirling in our gallery!

Joe será Tio George descrito como amigável, gentil e que adora contar histórias. Um dos maiores subenredos do livro ocorre quando George volta para casa das Cruzadas e se apaixona pela melhor amiga de Catherine, Lady Aelis. No entanto, como George não tem uma posição elevada na sociedade, eles não podem se casar, e ambos acabam se casando com outras pessoas (George, uma senhora louca chamada Ethelfritha, que foi atingida por um raio, Aelis primeiro com um duque de sete anos, e mais tarde com o irmão de Catherine, Robert). “Conforme se aproxima o dia do noivado oficial de Catherine, ela foge para seu tio e tia. Ela percebe que ela será a mesma, não importa com quem ela se case; assim, ela permite que seu tio a leve para casa.”

Joe has an exciting new project! A 12-part series adaptation of Conversations with Friends, written by the same author of Normal People, Sally Rooney. Joe, who is playing Nick, will be starring alongside Sasha Lane (Bobbi), Alison Oliver (Frances), and Jemima Kirke (Melissa). The show films this year in Dublin, Belfast, plus international locations and will air on BBC Three/BBC One and Hulu next year (2022)! Read more about the series below, via Element Pictures:
Following the outstanding success of Normal People, award-winning production company Element Pictures (The Favourite, Room, The Lobster) has today announced the highly anticipated casting for the BBC and Hulu TV adaptation of Sally Rooney’s debut literary sensation, Conversations with Friends.
Alison Oliver, an emerging talent from Lir Academy (whose graduates include Normal People’s Paul Mescal) will play Frances, Sasha Lane (American Honey, The Miseducation of Cameron Post) will star as Bobbi, Joe Alwyn (The Favourite, Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk) as Nick and Jemima Kirke (Sex Education, Girls) as Melissa, in this unique series that is both a complex coming of age drama and a very modern love story.
Element Pictures is once again collaborating with director Lenny Abrahamson and writer Alice Birch who will work alongside writers Mark O’Halloran (Rialto), Meadhbh McHugh (Asking For It) and Susan Soon He Stanton (Succession) on the 12-part drama for BBC Three in partnership with Hulu.
Conversations with Friends follows Frances (Alison Oliver), a 21 year old college student, as she navigates a series of relationships that force her to confront her own vulnerabilities for the first time.
Frances is observant, cerebral and sharp. Her ex-girlfriend, now best friend, Bobbi (Sasha Lane) is self-assured, outspoken and compelling. Though they broke up three years ago, Frances and Bobbi are virtually inseparable and perform spoken word poetry together in Dublin. It’s at one of their shows that they meet Melissa (Jemima Kirke), an older writer, who is fascinated by the pair.
Bobbi and Frances start to spend time with Melissa and her husband, Nick (Joe Alwyn), a handsome but reserved actor. While Melissa and Bobbi flirt with each other openly, Nick and Frances embark on an intense, secret affair that is surprising to them both. Soon the affair begins to test the bond between Frances and Bobbi, forcing Frances to reconsider her sense of self, and the friendship she holds so dear.
Filming will take place this year in Dublin, Belfast and international locations yet to be confirmed, with the Oscar-nominated director at the helm of Normal People, Lenny Abrahamson (Room, The Little Stranger, Frank) returning and sharing the directorial duties with Leanne Welham (Pili, His Dark Materials).
Piers Wenger, Director of BBC Drama, says: “Lenny’s deep affinity for Sally’s writing and talent for finding actors to bring her fictional creations to life played a huge part in bringing Normal People so successfully to screen. In casting Alison, Sasha, Joe and Jemima, that same flair and instinct is in evidence and we cant wait to see how they will bring Frances, Bobbi, Nick and Melissa to life“
Lenny Abrahamson, Executive Producer and Director, comments: “I feel so excited to be collaborating with four such superb actors to bring Sally’s brilliant novel to the screen. Over the last few months it has been a privilege to work alongside Element Pictures and our extraordinary team of writers to get the scripts to a point where we all feel so excited to start shooting. I’ll be joined by a world class crew (many of whom worked on Normal People) and supporting cast and I’m particularly happy to have Leanne Welham come on board. I’ve been an admirer of her work for a long time and I have no doubt she will bring great skill and subtlety to the episodes she directs.”
Ed Guiney, Executive Producer and Company Director of Element Pictures, adds: “Alison, Sasha, Joe and Jemima are the dream cast to lead Conversations With Friends and all of us at Element are so excited about the incredible scripts from our amazing team of writers which we have been developing with the oversight of the brilliant Lenny Abrahamson. We can’t wait to start filming with Lenny, Leanne and our wonderful cast and crew to bring Sally’s extraordinary novel to the screen.”

Joe watching Taylor perform in Glendale, AZ | May 8, 2018
Is destry related to The Stephen Spielberg???
yes his daughter! she’s an actor and director
The trouble is, films can be in development for years, so contact with a director doesn't mean anything is coming any time soon. But meeting a costume director is a different matter - you only do that if you need a costume basically now lol. And we did figure out AND before any of the trade publications mentioned it, so I'm confident we will spot the clues before them lol
haha we also found out about The Souvenir Part II way before it was announced so we’ve got a decent track record
Do you think we will see joe family in the eras tour ? Need to know if his mum will attend both nights 🙈
if not tonight, then at some point definitely! would be very cute if Joe and his mom were there for opening night again 🥹
when he said "there are a couple of things I probably did just because I wanted to work" ?
in his April 2022 interview for The Guardian Saturday
Joe… [more]
We thought we had joe directed by chloe zhao and paul schrader but we have nothing 😭😭😭 also who knows when hamlet will be filmed... I miss him!
those are still possibilities! pretty sure joe’s got some things in the pipeline, we just gotta be patient unfortunately
i hope we see him soon though!
To his credit, Joe has been supportive of female directors and I’ve felt doing LLFYL played into that a little even if it wasn’t “prestige.”
and to that, I think it’s nice if Joe doesn’t always work with a well-know/distinguished director. he said in his actors on actors convo with Paul, he’d like to work with a first-time director and that would be really cool
Joe started following director Mimi Cave on instagram, and, more interestingly, costume designer Mitchell Travers just started following Joe. Don't know what for (some people are speculating it's for 'Holland, Michigan') but it does look like we might get news of something soon.
seems it’s already filming so if he’s involved should find out soon
but whether it’s that or something else, I also feel like casting news is coming soon '
Do you know why Joe did Last Letter from Your Lover? It seems at odds with his other choices and he seems to be very picky in a good way and discerning. Last Letter was not ever billed as a prestige project which all of his other jobs were. It also has neither a distinguished director nor a decent script. Not to mention it has the most lacklustre cast compared to his other projects in which he stars alonside icons.
Joe said in an interview during CWF press “there are a couple of things I probably did just because I wanted to work” …pretty sure he was referring to LLFYL
also when he was cast, the daily mail said (i know they suck lol but they’ve been accurate about Joe casting… [more]
