Carlo Chatrian, Berlinale artistic director, said: “Jeremy Irons, with his particular style, has embodied some iconic characters that have accompanied me via my tour in cinema, creation me wakeful of a complexity of tellurian beings. His talent and a choices he has taken both as an artist and as a citizen make me feel unapproachable to acquire him as boss of a jury for a 70th book of a Berlinale.”
Expressing his pleasure to take a chair of a event, Irons said: “It is with feelings of good pleasure and not unsubstantial respect that we take on a purpose of boss of a International Jury for a Berlinale 2020.
Irons, who has been active in film given a 1980s, won both a Best Actor Academy Award and a Golden Globe in 1991 for his purpose in “Reversal of Fortune” by Barbet Schroeder.
Over a decades he has seemed in dozens of productions opposite all kinds of films, trimming from blockbusters like “Die Hard: With A Vengeance” to a argumentative film adaption of Vladimir Nabokov´s novel “Lolita”.
