Jonathan Pryce was 'the obvious choice' to play Pope Francis in 'The Two Popes', director Fernando Meirelles told the Director Roundtable
, director Fernando Meirelles told the Director Roundtable. "There were a lot of pictures of [Francis] next to Pryce because they look alike, and then I watched an interview with him, just him being himself, and I felt he was so humble and funny. He has the same kind of energy of the Pope.", Meirelles considers himself a Hollywood outsider, as he chooses to live in Brazil and routinely directs in Portuguese. "For me, it's been easier," he told the roundtable.
"There's a very good thing about being an outsider, and wanting to be an outsider." I have very deep roots in Brazil, family, and I like to direct in Portuguese. I understand English, but I don't feel English." Meirelles has one career Oscar nomination for directing
