BAFTA Cymru are delighted to honour Welsh actor Matthew Matthew’s trajectory stateside can be attributed to his critically Rhys with the prestigious ‘Sian Phillips Award 2011’ for his acclaimed performance as Kevin Walker in the ABC drama outstanding contribution to TV and Film, at their 20th Annual ‘Brothers & Sisters’ which he has been playing since 2006 alongside Awards Ceremony in Cardiff. Matthew takes time out of a hectic an ensemble cast that includes Rob Lowe, Callista Flockhart and New York schedule to talk to Faye Hannah about his eclectic career Sally Field. so far. “The greatest influence on me has been working with a cast of It is incredibly apt that Matthew Rhys is receiving the Sian Phillips such high calibre in the respect that I have learned so much from award from BAFTA Cymru: not only to recognise his extensive those who are absolutely at the apex of their careers and have been achievements within the industry, but also for the fact that he is also doing it for so long,” he explains. receiving the award in the name of the great actress who played his Mother in that first job all those years ago. Matthew reflects on It’s clear his time working on ‘Brothers and Sisters’ has helped coming full circle: Matthew shape and develop his craft and continue to make bold career choices, which include his transition from acting to “This award means an enormous amount to me - Sian Phillips directing episodes of ‘Brothers and Sisters’, but has this been an easy played my mother in Marc Evans ‘House of America’ which was transition? my very first job,” he says. “Starting to direct the show has been phenomenal and very hard “Acting opposite her was rather magical and it means an infinite work using an entirely different skill set really,” he reflects. amount more that it is her award- it’s such a huge honour” “It was like going back to school with so much to study and learn Since filming ‘House of America’, Matthew’s career has gone -you sit down with your folder and pencil and just crack on with it, from strength to strength, seeing him play the iconic Welsh writer I was in danger of getting too comfortable and it was good to test and poet Dylan Thomas in ‘The Edge of Love’ alongside Keira myself” Knightley and Sienna Miller which won him a BAFTA Cymru nomination in 2009.

52 MATTHEW’S CAREER COMES FULL CIRCLE

So does this talented actor’s future lie behind the camera? So what would be his perfect role? “I would certainly like to do more behind the camera that’s for “I would love to tackle a whopping great big epic about Owain sure,” he says. Glyndwr or Llewellyn – that would be the greatest challenge for me” “I enjoy it enormously as challenging and terrifying as it is – there are a number of insecurities that come with it –that people will As with Matthew’s passion to be challenged and to learn, his passion think – he’s just an actor opposed to someone doing something of for travel is just as strong which you can assume translates that he is merit, however acting and directing in the same project was sort of a man who never rests on his laurels. the juggling of two heads.” “Travelling is the thing that excites me the most- I don’t relax well You can get the sense that Matthew enjoys learning and developing lying on a beach or sitting down,” explains Mathew. and that this is an integral part of his make up. Matthew concurs: “It’s very true of acting, you don’t stop learning until the end, I like “Last year I had my perfect summer, when I went to Africa, Jordan to push myself and keep a hunger for developing and growing”. and Spain. I did a horse trip through the Wadi Rum- where they filmed Lawrence of Arabia. I don’t know if it’s relaxing but I In terms of acting in TV, Film and Theatre, Rhys’ roles are certainly certainly get to switch off,” confirms Matthew. eclectic and wide ranging but what has been his most challenging acting role so far? Despite all the travelling a magnetism seems to always bring him back to Wales, particularly when you hear him enthuse about “I certainly find Romeo very challenging, you try to bring your driving back to Cardiff: “I still get that feeling coming back, own interpretations and something different to the character and my shoulders drop as I drive home over the Severn Bridge and not make him a whingy teenager- all roles have equal challenges everything is fine again. Cardiff and mid Wales are the places I’m and I approach them with the same degree, constantly thinking most happy- my parents were raised there, and it’s so strongly how am I going to make this believable and you push yourself to associated with my childhood”. transform a little bit more- those elements are where I find the challenge.”

MATTHEW’S CAREER COMES FULL CIRCLE

It is possibly no coincidence that in his latest Film- Marc Evans “I’ve always been shooting over the last few years so I haven’t had ‘Patagonia’, that his role as Mateo- the Welsh speaking Patagonian the opportunity to make anything like that happen.” born tour guide, is perfect for him, not least because it amalgamates his three loves: Wales, travel and acting. So what advice would Matthew offer to someone starting out in the same way he was? “Marc always kept me in the loop with the idea that he had for Patagonia, but weirdly enough we were going to be there at the “It’s tough, you need incredible tenacity, you need the sensitivity same time,” he says. to be an actor, but you also need the skin of a Rhino to deal with rejections- as advice goes you just need to be tenacious in your “I was on a horse, trekking across Argentina, and we met up on the work,” he responds. plains – like two old gouchos running into each other! It was from that moment that it all came into fruition.” You understand that living in LA for the best part of the last decade, that he has seen a lot, travelled a lot and experienced a great deal, This magnet to Wales seems to draw into every part of our but what are the key attributes that have made the successful career conversation as Matthew mentions that he is off to the Met at the of this charismatic Welsh actor? Hard work, luck, talent? weekend to see Bryn Terfel in Wagners Die Walkuere, and that he recently bumped into fellow Sian Phillips award recipient Russell Matthew affirms: “I can’t stress enough, they are the big three, it’s T Davies in LA. Matthew confirms: “It’s fantastic what he is doing not that one dominated at any one time – it’s always been a strong bringing to America and bringing the Welsh actors as amalgamation of all three corresponding at exactly the same time, in well.” that moment when the planets align, you get the job I think”
