À propos de cet audio
Willem Dafoe has had an exceptionally eventful few days that reflect both his ongoing creative boldness and his unexpected flair for reinvention. The biggest headline right now is his high-profile collaboration with legendary scotch brand Laphroaig. According to Whisky Advocate, Dafoe fronted the global campaign in a striking new black and white short film, directed by music video icon Tim Pope. In this poetic, visually immersive spot, Dafoe meditates on the elusive taste of Laphroaig, likening his search to childhood curiosity about astronauts. This campaign is not just a commercial appearance but a blend of art and branding, with Dafoe’s narration used in global digital, print, and social media promotions. In addition, the campaign will include a limited edition Laphroaig release next year, making this one of the more enduring brand deals in his career, a story confirmed by Adweek and The Whiskey Wash.
Turning to the arts, Dafoe’s independent film profile remains as undeniable as ever. CBS News reports that his latest feature, "Late Fame," made its North American premiere at the 2025 New York Film Festival this week, drawing renewed attention to his ability to anchor complex character studies. Dafoe stars as a poet rediscovering fame and wrestling with creative purpose. The film's Friday night screening drew both critical buzz and fan enthusiasm, further cementing Dafoe's stature in the serious cinema world.
Fashion watchers were treated to a remarkable moment at Paris Fashion Week: Cosmopolitan UK describes how Dafoe suprised audiences by closing the Miu Miu Spring/Summer 2025 show. His runway appearance—marking a rare crossover from Oscar-nominated actor to fashion model—created major social media chatter and was instantly hailed as one of the season’s most memorable catwalk cameos.
Meanwhile on the interview circuit, Dafoe added more depth to his biographical legacy. At the Sarajevo Film Festival, during a career-spanning masterclass hosted by Variety, he candidly discussed his most iconic roles, including "The Florida Project," "The Last Temptation of Christ," and "Spider-Man," touching on acting philosophy and the role of stunts in his process. Notably he avoided political commentary, choosing instead to focus on craft and collaboration, while teasing only briefly about upcoming projects like Robert Eggers's "Werwulf."
All in all, whether through film, fashion, or unique business ventures, Willem Dafoe continues to press the boundaries of what it means to be a global icon—and even at seventy, he’s making headlines that promise to echo well into the future.
