“The film is about improvement and progress and this is something I try to do in my work and life,” said Jude Law referencing his new short film The Gentleman’s Wager. “I had to learn new skills through the shooting of this film. That, combined with the places we visited and shot in and working alongside Jake and Giancarlo too, made it a truly rare experience.”
In collaboration with luxury whiskey brand Johnnie Walker Blue Label, The Gentleman’s Wager is a short film which tells the story of a man on a quest to experience the unknown in the exotic setting of the British Virgin Islands. The film, which also stars noted Italian actor Giancarlo Giannini, is scheduled for a global release in July.

“As part of his preparation for his part in the film, Jude Law went through intensive training, including learning to play the piano, picking up a saxophone for the first time in years and going to dance classes. The film sees Law don a wardrobe that harks back to his Talented Mr Ripley days, with yacht-chic outfits and sharp tailoring.” Quintessentially Lifestyle
Law, in the role of a man who despite having it all, uses a wager as an excuse to challenge himself and strive for something he wants, but can’t buy. We’re thinking that’s a guys thing…….
