>>927 Last one tonight, I promise! I'm also skeptical that he can't get a job from any of these lists. (And there's also theatre work.) My guess is that the lack of new projects is a mix of factors.

I wonder if he didn't perhaps take his eye off the prize for a while while he was preparing for/filming/publicizing so many projects in a row before last summer - CP, ISTL, TNM, H-R, KSI . He may not have had the time and energy to read through scripts in his few off hours. (Also probably didn't help that he spent some of those hours socializing with his cast mates during ISTL, H-R, and KSI.) Also, this might be where Anon's comment about Eton boys being told they're Masters of the Universe from age 13 comes in - once he started to get a lot of film/good TV roles all at once, he may have assumed that they would just keep coming (because, he thought, look at all the great work he was doing). And then there was taking off a chunk of last spring and summer to have "fun"....

Meanwhile, he has fierce competition for good roles, and they may be more active in making their own work. For example, BC found Imitation Game from the Blacklist script list and told his agent to go after it. Supposedly he's also now producing some of his upcoming projects.

He might be holding off for a "tentpole" lead role; he might be waiting for just the right indie/breakout part. Or he may be having a crisis of confidence and is deathly worried about making the wrong choice for his comeback.
