No, I don't know it. I was just curious about this interview, I haven't looked up his birth data yet. This bit grabbed my attention: quote:
“At a certain point in your life it becomes obvious that to adhere to one strict set of rules cripples examination of everything else, because there are shutters that come down,” he says. “Religion, especially fundamentalist religion, stops you from engaging and seeing other points of view.” Absolutism is a dirty word: “Acting is about shades of grey. If I hear someone say they’re 100% certain about something, then it’s almost inevitable that I’ll take the opposite view. I guess I feel at odds with many things in society, and absolutism is always a trigger for me.”
Maybe some Sag? He could well be in the Virgo Uranus generation. So maybe Sun Square Uranus? There is definitely a strong Uranian theme somewhere. This bit is about him playing Einstein: quote:
The cast and crew described him as “focused”, “passionate” and “driven”. Asked about his obsessiveness, he explains: “Whatever I’m doing at any given moment becomes the most important thing for me. I become totally absorbed in the moment, whether it’s painting or acting; I can be pretty full-on. I’ve always been into acting as a conduit to a greater truth by moving away from myself. I’ve always had that desire for transformation.”
Later on it says he is Narcoleptic, inherited off his father. His brother also has it. Of course, being obsessed I though: Neptune. The above intensity, maybe a Neptune, Pluto theme, or perhaps some Scorpionic placements.

I can see Gem. I can sense someone who can't stand being bored. And the varied roles: King Kong, Einstein, Gollum, Rigaud in BBC's Little Dorrit. He's not exactly typecast. Being a nosey Gem mysel I am itching to check out his birth data. But I will go to bed tonight without looking. Let's see how the bidding goes! Sag, I am still leaning towards something of the Sag.

I liked this comment: quote: he rejected religion at an early age. “At a certain point in your life it becomes obvious that to adhere to one strict set of rules cripples examination of everything else, because there are shutters that come down,” he says. “Religion, especially fundamentalist religion, stops you from engaging and seeing other points of view.”
He doesn't have any but that would have been my first guess.....IP: Logged |

I looked him up too lol. I had no idea he was THAT guy! I love his work!!I would've guessed Sagittarius initially as well. Maybe even Libra because of the whole taking the other side thing (and shades of gray).

hmm reminds me a bit of something I'd say - so I'll guess Aries with Pisces Jupiter or something significant in Pisces. IP: Logged |

Zala, that's interesting. I wouldn't have thought Saturn. I just found out his Sun is exactly conjunct my NN/Venus. Nice  IP: Logged |

No Sag ~ but Sun Conjunct Jupiter in Taurus. Making a wedge with a Trine to Uranus/Pluto in Virgo and Sextile to Saturn in Pisces. Aries Mars for the energy ~ Inconjunct Neptune for the narcoplesy and his spiritual viewpoint. Mercury in Taurus. We don't rush into judgement, not often. Opposite Neptune. Imagination and spiritual fluidity. Venus in Gemini, and another Inconjunct to Neptune. Not quite a Yod though, I don't think. No time of birth so the T-Square with the Moon is a matter of supposition.

~~~~~~~~ .. And we have just seen him in BBC1’s Little Dorrit as the murderous Rigaud, a character he himself has called “a thoroughly nasty piece of work”. .. The extremes of the human condition are what Serkis plays best. It started in 1992 with his breakthrough theatre role in April De Angelis’s Hush, when he played a schizophrenic tramp who kills his pet dog and then takes on its spirit. He spent most of the play naked and barking. .. “I found that a hard role to shake off. It really messed with my head,” he says. Why is he attracted to disturbed people? “I suppose I find those characters interesting, because they’re layered, they’re complex, they’re challenging.” ~~~~~~~~ There may also be some personal truth in these brutal roles. As a child he used to have “huge rages” that required all three of his older sisters to sit on top of him to hold him down. “We used to fight like hell,” he recalls. “I was often jealous that they had more freedom than me.” When was the last time he lost his temper? “Last week,” he admits. It happened when a Land Rover cut across his Toyota people-carrier at a roundabout near his home in north London. “He started giving me verbals, and it was genuinely not my fault. I had to step out of the car at the lights to tell him what I thought, and then it started getting heated. Then people started beeping their horns because the lights turned green. I was desperately trying not to get aerated, and as I was walking back to my car he went, ‘And anyway, you shouldn’t be driving: you should be in a limo with the money you’re earning.’ And I sat back in my car thinking, ‘God, I can’t even lose my temper any more.’” ~~~~~~~~~~ being true to his sun and mars  looks as if he's got t.Pluto trining his Suni must make a point of watching BBC1’s Little Dorrit .. caught two episodes .. Rigaud sure comes accross as a nasty chracter .. :-) seems to make good use of his gemini venus .. and those squares to pluto and chiron .. with added input from that venus sextile good ol' aries mars .. my favourite performance in 'lord of the rings .. was that of the 'gollum' chracter .. thanx for posting that ~ BM ~ .. has been of interest :-) IP: Logged |
