So it is the time of year for some of the industy’s prestigious awards to start announcing their nominees.  Michael has already done well this year by scooping Best Actor for both GQ and The Variety Club.

Let us hope his luck continues as it has been announced that he has been nominated as Best Actor, once again for The Damned United, by the International Press Academy.  See here for their full list of nominees. The successful nominees will be announced on December 20th

Keep your eyes peeled on the Hollywood Foreign Press Awards site, as they will be releasing their nominations for Golden Globes on December 15th.  You can see their nominations here after the 15th, and the awards will be presented 17th January 2010.

The Golden Globes are considered a reasonable indication of Oscar winners so you can be sure we will be keeping our eye on this and hope our boy makes off with some serious hardware this award season.

We have added a video of Michael Sheen on the Bonnie Hunt Show from earlier today.  Michael chats to Bonnie about his life growing up in Wales, and about meeting Her Majesty The Queen when receiving his OBE.

Entertainment Weekly interview Michael Sheen where they ask why he choose to do a project like New Moon when he is more familiar for roles in weightier dramas such as The Queen and Frost Nixon.

“I knew about the whole Twilight thing, primarily through my daughter, who’s 11 and is a big fan of the books. She’s read the books many, many times.”

Full interview here.

We have added a copy of an article into our Gallery from American Way magazine who chat to Michael about New Moon.

“When I was approached to do the film, I immediately knew it was a major way to earn points with Lily.  She didn’t come to the set because she was in school, but she definitely lined up her spot at the premiere. “
