Max Irons

The wolf, a little bit scary. Hopefully.

Young Hollywood

Let's do it now. Ready? Big wolf. Ah, how's that?

Max Irons

That's why he is who he is.

Young Hollywood

I'm Oliver Travino here at the Young Hollywood Studio with these two handsome men, Max Irons and Charlie Fernandez. How are you? What great names!

Max Irons

Thanks for completely making mine not look that good. I'm going to big up mine, think of a new one by the end of the thing. Anyway, this guy coming here is totally ruining my game. What's your problem? We were having so much fun before you showed up.

Shiloh Fernandez

We were in the same country.

Max Irons

You're not supposed to be talking about it.

Shiloh Fernandez

Well, I thought we were until you turned up 15 minutes late.

Max Irons

Wrong hotel, not my fault. We kind of get confused with technology, British people.

Shiloh Fernandez

Yeah. Horse and cart, all you need.

Max Irons

You used to ride a horse and cart. Completely honest. Instead of a car.

Shiloh Fernandez

Yeah, bad time in my life.

Max Irons

And that's probably why you got expelled from school. People kidding. It influenced me, it just made me weird. Okay, there you go. Any dads watching out there, don't ride a horse and car, 'cause your kids will get expelled from school.

Young Hollywood

Red Riding Hood. Yeah. Small little film that you're the stars of. Have you seen it?

Max Irons

I have seen it. I saw it yesterday, yeah. It's exclusive. Absolutely round. I couldn't find a seat. I actually had to sit front row. That's terrible. My neck's a little bit stiff today. Sorry. But it was amazing. And that you play Henry, you play Peter, but you both went up for both roles. Is that correct? Did you want your role?

Max Irons

Of course there are moments where the grass is always greener. I think, I think it's right, it's the right setup.

Shiloh Fernandez

Well, he is the hero. Just wanted to point that out.

Max Irons

He is, but watching watching the film and and he actually gets the heroic moment. That's very nice. But I think the truth of it is that Henry Henry starts off as a bit of a coward.

Shiloh Fernandez

Do you want a hug? Do you want a hug? We can get these out now.

Max Irons

He's so nice. So nice sticking up for each other.

Young Hollywood

The wolf, a little bit scary. Hopefully. The real wolf wasn't a real wolf. It was far too big. See how I work that out on my own? No one even told me that, I just knew it. I thought you're not going to trick me, that's not a real wolf. So how is that filming when you're like, right, pretend the big wolf is going to come at you now.

Shiloh Fernandez

Let's do it now. Ready? Big wolf. Ah, how was that?

Max Irons

Wow. That's why he is who he is.

Young Hollywood

Keke Palmer, Twi Twilight, movies like that. How was it working with her?

Shiloh Fernandez

Yeah, I had a fantastic time with her. 24 hours a day she's completely excited and completely um, kind of going for it. She's like a kid in the in the playground who who's got this great idea for a game. Then she kind of runs into the circle of kids and explains the rules to the game. And you would go, okay and she's got that passion and enthusiasm and in this case it was a game involving the wolf.

Young Hollywood

And now Twilight, there's a story behind that with you as well, isn't there? I heard you were the runner up.

Shiloh Fernandez

Yeah, yeah, I heard that too. I don't know, who knows.

Young Hollywood

Well let's go with it. All right, cool.

Shiloh Fernandez

I was runner up.

Max Irons

You were third.

Shiloh Fernandez

I was. Yeah, I was.

Max Irons

He was third.

Young Hollywood

Did you guys hang out much off set?

Shiloh Fernandez

We did. I mean we were the only two kind of there for six months.

Young Hollywood

Because I heard you got expelled from boarding school when you were younger.

Max Irons

I did. I'm a bad boy.

Shiloh Fernandez

I don't know, he seems very proper but there's there's some interesting things going on behind all that kind of prim and proper, you know, nonsense that he that he puts forth.

Young Hollywood

Secret ninja.

Shiloh Fernandez

Mhm. Secret ninja.

Max Irons

Secret ninja. That was so quick.

Young Hollywood

And what else is going on in your world? What else are you working on? You're off to South by Southwest, right?

Shiloh Fernandez

I'm I'm going to go just watch some bands and uh, this this this movie I did before called Skaters and uh, the the filmmakers for that film, they have have homes in in Austin, Texas. And this movie is on it South by Southwest. They're doing a like a midnight screening thing, correct?

Max Irons

I think so. Yeah, I I I I if I say it, it's right. So just agree.

Young Hollywood

Okay, brilliant. And you guys are doing some Twitter thing as well. Right, we have to Twitter.

Max Irons

Well, no, they're going to Twitter in questions.

Young Hollywood
