Aaron ‘Taylor’-Johnson and Sam Johnson

I think I've said it before but back in the day, people who claimed to work on the set used to be on the old IMDB boards and claimed she was director of NB in name only. She was seemingly too busy chasing after Aaron like a schoolgirl while wearing pigtails (something confirmed by a reporter who was on set) and sneaking away into trailers with him so it was left to others to pick up the slack. Of course, no one has ever actually confirmed it on record, but it would explain how she got such good reviews for that but has had bad reviews in most of her projects since.
Yes that would make sense. I don’t really know what else she’s made but that’s probably why if they’re all tit since nb
 
50 Shades of Grey is the only other one I know besides Back to Black.

I remember there being a big hoohaa about that. She was supposed to do all the films but the author was given free reign and kept arguing with her over the direction. In every interview, she has said how miserable it made her as she couldn't direct the way she wanted. There was also A Million Little Pieces which she did with Aaron but it was ignored apart from the fact he got naked in it and the book it was based on was a lie. A quick check on her IMDB page shows a few short films, episodes of TV series and a few music videos.

She should have stuck to art as that is where she seemed to do well. Pre Aaron, she was talked about with the likes of Damien Hurst and Tracey Emin.

Whenever the three named actor can break away from his wife, he always looks incredibly happy. Today was no different. Because the wife reads the blinds, I'm sure she will be all over him tomorrow to make it seem like everything is perfect. Aaron Taylor-Johnson/Sam Taylor-Johnson (Aaron Taylor Johnson is seen outside "GMA Studio" on December 11, 2024 in New York City)

It's true as well. He was pictured a few months ago, and those who printed the pictures talked about how happy and handsome he was. I think it was less than a week later; they were papped with her smiling at the camera with her hooks firmly attached while he looked pissed with his hands in his pockets.
 
Sam will be 60 in 3 years.I actually didn't realise how much older than him she is.

There are certain pictures that you think, eeww, as he looks so young. He was only 17/18 when they met and he auditioned, and she fought for him to get the role and spent the majority of the shoot acting like a schoolgirl in pigtails and making it clear she was only interested in him to the point other cast and crew were ignored as she made it clear to everyone he was 'hers'.

I know it's been said before, but it is 100% true that if this were the other way around and it was an older director who lovebombed a young actress to the point the rest of his cast and crew were ignored by him, there would rightly be an uproar about it, yet for some reason, she seems to get a pass with people claiming it is just jealousy that has people calling it out. Even the media is reluctant to say anything, and if it is talked about, they make out it is so romantic to the point I have only ever seen one reporter call it what it is.

So true and I feel so sad for him because he still doesn’t realise he was completely groomed and took advantage of. He lost his whole adolescence.

Look like Mother and Son in that photo.
I wonder what his parents think.
 
His career confuses me so much.

He's always worked pretty consistently, but he's had a bit of a boost these last couple of years. Bullet Train was really well received, and so was The Fall Guy even if it didn't do brilliantly at the box office.

Kraven is a massive flop but he's in Nosferatu which has fantastic reviews and some awards buzz. He's also in the upcoming 28 Years Later movies.

They have both said in interviews that if one was working, then the other stayed with the kids, and that was why he was so picky with his choices and only doing one or two films every few years, but she hasn't really had much work herself if you look at her IMDB, so I'm guessing he or rather she decided he wasn't going to go the Hollywood route many thought he would after NB, but he seems to be picking up speed again now.

There were rumours about him and Bond, with some claiming he had already agreed and signed, but now other actors names are circling again, which is probably for the best as the way she was talking in an interview a while back, she was hinting about wanting to direct one of them.
