Guests at the glitzy gala dinner, organized by the men's fashion
and style magazine, celebrated the achievements of this year’s
cover stars, actors Jeremy Allen White, Andrew Scott, Ncuti
Gatwa and musical trio Boygenius.
U.S. indie rock group Boygenius, made up of singer-songwriters
Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker, jetted to London
just days after receiving six Grammy nominations, including an
Album of the Year nod for their debut studio album "The Record".
"The Bear" star White, fresh off from premiering his new A24
wrestling biopic "The Iron Claw" in Dallas, Texas, said being
honored was taking some getting used to.
"I never thought I'd be in a room like this. I never thought I'd
be here with all these people I admire so much,” he said, adding
that his star turn in the hit show had helped open many doors.
White and his "The Bear" co-star Ebon Moss-Bachrach said Season
3 of the series would start filming next year but remained
tight-lipped on details.
"I know little things but certainly nothing I'm going to share,”
said Moss-Bachrach.
Scott, who last month wrapped up his critically acclaimed
one-man version of Checkov's "Uncle Vanya" in London's West End
and appears in the Oscar-buzzy "All of Us Strangers", said he
was "just about" recovered from the solo show in which he plays
multiple characters.
"This is my first night out! I've been very lucky to be able to
work during the strike, which I know a lot of actors can't say.”
"I'm delighted 'All of Us Strangers' comes out at the end of the
year. I'm glad that people are finally going to get a chance to
see it and that we're able to talk about how proud we are of
it.”
Other honorees of the night included "How to Have Sex" filmmaker
Molly Manning Walker, musician Jack Antonoff and England
goalkeeper Mary Earps.
