Based on a true story of <em>1942 Prague<\/em> plagued by the rising of the Nazi Hierarchy, <strong>Dornan<\/strong> plays <em>army-in-exile, Czechoslovakian soldier<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Jan Kubi\u0161<\/em> alongside <strong>Cillian Murphy<\/strong>,&nbsp;who plays his counterpart,&nbsp;<em>Jozef Gab\u010d\u00edk.<\/em> The pair set out to assassinate <em>SS&nbsp;Reinhard Heydrich<\/em>, second in command to <strong>Adolf Hitler.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During the afternoon of July 1st, 2016, <strong>Dornan<\/strong> first met with <em>fans<\/em> and graciously signed a plethora of<em> autographs and to take pictures<\/em>. One fan recapped her experience on <em>Facebook<\/em> regarding the encounter she had with <strong>Jamie<\/strong> at <strong>KVIFF<\/strong> by saying <em>&#8220;He&#8217;s sweet, adorable, very kind and quite the shy cute Jamie. He&#8217;s interested in how his fans are and grateful and happy when you ask him how Amelia and the girls are doing.&#8221; <\/em>Proving once again that <strong>Jamie&#8217;s<\/strong> family means everything to him.<\/p>\n<p>The film then had its international premier in <em>Karlovy Vary, Prague<\/em> on <em>July 1st, 2016<\/em> where <strong>Dornan<\/strong> was indeed present. He presented the movie on the first day and attended a <em>press conference<\/em> for the film alongside <strong>Director Sean Ellis<\/strong>, <em>multiple producers and fellow cast members.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The movie was first shown on <em>July 1st, 2016<\/em> during the festival at which <strong>Dornan<\/strong> was present for and even introduced the movie prior to the screening. Dressed in a brilliant black suit and trademark bow tie, <strong>Dornan<\/strong> spoke highly regarding the importance of the film for the <b>Czechoslova<\/b><strong>kian<\/strong> people.&nbsp;<em>&#8220;We realized what an important story this is to Czechoslovakia and we felt that, you know, a huge amount of pressure to tell the story in an appropriate way and to honour the men involved, men and women involved, and I really hope we&#8217;ve done that. We&#8217;re very proud of the movie and I hope that we&#8217;ve done the country proud as well.&#8221;<\/em> He also spoke multiple times about the changes an actor experiences doing <em>period pieces<\/em> as well as a film based on a <em>true story<\/em> and the<em> level of difficulty<\/em> in portraying someone who <em>actually<\/em> existed. <em>&#8220;I&#8217;ve gone through a period where I&#8217;ve felt like I was playing people who were very much in control of what they were doing.&#8221;<\/em> <strong>Dornan<\/strong> spoke regarding some of his current and past roles, wherein<strong>&nbsp;Jan Kubi\u0161<\/strong> experiences a different level of control.<\/p>\n<p>On <em>July 2nd, 2016<\/em> <strong>Jamie<\/strong> attended the <em>Press Conference<\/em> portion of the festival in which he joined a panel of producers, fellow cast members and the director alike to answer questions regarding the film. <em>Jamie<\/em> spoke highly of <strong>Prague<\/strong>, his fellow comrades and his fans by saying <em>&#8220;The Czech people have been brilliant. They were brilliant when we were announcing the movie last year, they&#8217;ve been brilliant. I felt that we got a really, sort of very, impassioned response (from the movie) last night and the Czech audience. I think that sort of thrilled all of us. I felt that I&#8217;m very warmed by the perception the movie&#8217;s got.&#8221;<\/em> <strong>Jamie<\/strong> is also very good at keeping the limelight on the project he&#8217;s promoting. When asked about <em>Fifty Shades of Grey<\/em>, <strong>Dornan<\/strong> respectfully replied <em>&#8220;I won&#8217;t talk about that project because I&#8217;m not here to talk about that project,&#8221;<\/em> maintaining the focus on <strong>Anthropoid.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With a trailer already released, fans are more than excited to see <strong>Jamie<\/strong> in such a divergent role. We&#8217;ve seen him play everything from a <em>sadomasochistic billionaire<\/em> to a <em>serial killer<\/em>. And now he&#8217;s playing characters and pieces based off<em> real life circumstances.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jamie<\/strong> also has two other movies set to premier shortly. <em>&#8216;The 9th Life of Louis Drax&#8217;<\/em>, which got its trailer premier last week is set to debut on <em>September 2nd<\/em> in the <strong>US<\/strong> and <em>September 9th<\/em> in the <strong>UK<\/strong>. <strong>Jamie&#8217;s<\/strong> other project <em>&#8216;The Siege of Jadotville&#8217;<\/em> a <strong>Netflix<\/strong>&nbsp;original also <em>based on a true story<\/em>, is set to premier on <em>July 9th, 2016<\/em> at <strong>Galway Film Fleadh<\/strong> in <strong>Ireland<\/strong>.
