Cinema’s bad boy is taking to the stage to tour his new album

LUKE EVANS

Luke Evans went from London’s West End to Hollywood’s silver screen, making his cinematic debut in 2010’s Clash Of The Titans. Now he’s touring his debut album, At Last – a collection of cover versions of songs originally sung by women that have never been covered by men.

What kind of fanbase has starring in films like The Hobbit and Fast & Furious 6 brought you?

A very diverse one. It really is extraordinary. This is no word of a lie, I’ve been at the Taj Mahal at 6am to watch the sunrise over the Taj Mahal, and three Indian kids have come up to me – 14 and 15 – and gone, “Excuse me, are you Dracula?” And I’m like, “Yes.” “What are you doing here?” I thought it was quite funny. I was like, “It’s the sun. I need to see it before the sun rises.” And they just looked at me like, “What is Dracula doing here before the sun rises?”

Is it fun to be recognised as a “baddie”?

Making Alien - Jaws in Space - Forty-five years on from its original release, Alien continues to terrify. We dissect what arguably remains the most chilling instalment in the saga

The seven-strong crew of the commercial mining spacecraft the Nostromo seal their fate after reluctantly responding to a mysterious distress signal on a hostile planet. Here, a face-hugging alien from a derelict ship impregnates and later kills executive officer Kane (John Hurt) after its offspring is birthed onboard. After being unleashed, the fearsome newborn with acid for blood proceeds to dispatch the remainder of the crew.Ridley Scott's much more convoluted prequels have yet to reveal how the knowledge that led to this initial interception was acquired. However, the premise of the original Alien is perfect in its uncomplicated purity.
