Freddie Highmore : Freddie's Facts

Hello there!

About few months ago, I posted an article about Freddie Highmore. Yes, he's one of my favourite actor. I posted about a little biography of him. And now, I'm gonna post about some of his facts. I got the informations from any sources. Mostly from internet, like his interview report, or any gossip and news about him, and some video of him from youtube. I've been watching and keep looking for his newest interview on internet no matter it is good or not :')

Freddie's Facts :

* His name is Alfred Thomas Highmore.

* His ability is already in his blood, cause his father is also an actor and her mother is a talent agent. They're Mr. Edward Highmore and Mrs. Sue Latimer.

* Freddie has a little brother named Albert Highmore or known as Bertie.

* Freddie and Bertie had played together in Woman Talking Dirty (1999) as Helena Bonham Carter's children.

* Freddie had played with another incredible actor and actress, such as :

- Johnny Depp (Finding Neverland and Charlie and The Chocolate Factory) also with Kate Winslet

- Helena Bonham Carter (Woman Talking Dirty, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, and Toast)

* Marc Forster, as the director of Finding Neverland (2004), decided to schedule one of Highmore's toughest scenes (where he tears up a book and demolishes a playhouse) on his second day of filming, deliberately so other cast members could see the child act and change their attitude towards working with him.
