Eddie Redmayne is stunning and super stylish as usual on the cover of British GQ, in an all blue ensemble, consisting of a blue suit, button down shirt and long tie.

The actor is fast becoming a force to reckon with within Hollywood, with his second oscar nomination announced just a few days ago for his portrayal in undefined.

He’s not only known for taking on complex roles that reveal the true human condition like he did in , which he won an oscar for last year, but he’s also known for his impeccable sharp looks.

In the magazine, photographed by Tom Munro, actor Eddie Redmayne dishes on picking challenging roles to play; “I think people look at it and go, urgh, you want to try and do something transformational. And it’s not true–just, if you’re lucky enough in your lifetime to get two parts that are interesting and challenging to play, then it’s a privilege really.”

He’s also big on giving back. He occasionally pays young actors’ rents and he shared; “The greatest privilege that I had was that my parents lived in London. So when I was out of university and out of work for a year, working in a pub, I didn’t pay rent. And I get letters from people trying to go to drama school and needing to pay their rent. And so that’s something I occasionally do. It’s impossibly expensive to live in London.”

As far as his style goes, some say that are tired of the suits and classic looks and seek that he switch it up. However, in playing devil’s advocate, it is always better to stick to what you know and what works for you.

Fortunately, in his case, his style, suits, is one that won’t go out of trend anytime soon and he wears it oh so well.

Let us know what you think of the cover.
