We could all sit here and list Jeff Goldblum’s filmography at a drop of a hat: Jurassic Park, Independence Day, The Fly, The Tall Guy with Emma Thompson and Grandmaster in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 and Thor: Ragnarok. Then there’s his Wes Anderson films: 2004’s The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, 2014’s The Grand Budapest Hotel, 2018’s Isle of Dogs and Anderson’s new one Asteroid City.
On stage, Goldblum has been in Twelfth Night off-Broadway and appeared twice at the Old Vic in London. TV? You name it, he’s done it, from Sesame Street, Friends and Will & Grace to The Simpsons, where he voiced Troy McClure’s agent, MacArthur Parker, who lands McClure a role in the Planet of the Apes musical.
Then there’s his trademark glasses, his gesticulations, his voice … If you haven’t watched Goldblum ranking other comedians doing impressions of him, do so now. And to top all that, Goldblum has released three jazz albums with the help of the Mildred Snitzer Orchestra and a pork pie hat.
So we couldn’t be more over the moon that Goldblum is here to take your questions. We’re predicting a deluge, so please get them to us by midday Thursday 11 May so we can sift through and ensure we ask the best he deserves.
• Plays Well with Others by Jeff Goldblum & The Mildred Snitzer Orchestra is out now.
