Andrew Garfield and Jude Law seen in first look as Las Vegas act Siegfried & Roy

by

Andrew Garfield and Jude Law transformed themselves into the famous magician duo Siegfried & Roy for an upcoming biopic series called “Wild Things,” as shown in a newly released photo.

Film journalist Jeff Sneider shared a photo on Wednesday of the two actors, who were almost completely transformed by their costumes.

Jay Leno’s former sidekick Jeff Garfield, age 42, is portraying the late Roy Horn in an upcoming biopic. Law, 53, will play Horn’s longtime partner, Siegfried Fischbacher. Both Horn (who passed away in 2020 at age 75) and Fischbacher (who died in 2021 at 81) were famous as the duo Siegfried & Roy.

Siegfried & Roy, the famous performing duo, created one of Las Vegas’s most popular and financially successful stage shows, earning hundreds of millions of dollars over many years.

The show ended tragically in 2003 when Roy Horn was seriously attacked by one of his performing tigers.

For the new Apple TV+ series inspired by the podcast ‘Wild Things: Siegfried & Roy,’ actors Garfield and Law will play the famous Las Vegas entertainers.

According to Variety, the series tells the dramatic story of two legendary magician-showmen and their white tigers as they attempt to transform Las Vegas into a destination for families. Their personal and professional lives become blurred as they push the boundaries of illusion, culminating in a tragic event and a mystery surrounding their final performance in Las Vegas.

Garfield and Law were pictured in Las Vegas earlier this week as they filmed their upcoming series.

The actor known for playing Spider-Man had a small goatee and wore a black beret that stood out against his bright blue jacket. He also had short, dark hair.

He was wearing a white, collarless shirt, along with thin glasses and a necklace that appeared to have a rabbit’s foot attached.

Law seemed to have had dramatic changes to his appearance, possibly with the help of prosthetics to create a stronger chin and a softer nose.

He’d traded his dark, thinning hair for a messy, blond style, which he partially hid behind sleek sunglasses. He was wearing a dark jacket with broad shoulders and leather sleeves, finished with a patterned silver and black scarf and a silver cross.

I was so excited to see the actors! They were standing on the beautiful stone balcony of The Venetian in Las Vegas, and honestly, they looked like they’d just finished a shopping spree with bags at their feet. It felt so natural and in-character for them.

In their act, Siegfried focused on illusions, while Roy was responsible for the animal displays. 

However, on October 3, 2003, things went wrong during the performance. Mantacore, a 400-pound white tiger in the show, started walking towards the edge of the stage, getting dangerously close to the audience who weren’t separated by any barrier.

While Horn was trying to steer the tiger back to its spot, it suddenly grabbed his sleeve in its mouth. He quickly tapped the tiger on the nose with his microphone, hoping it would release him, but as soon as he moved back, the tiger jumped at him.

Mantacore bit down hard on Horn’s neck and began dragging him towards his wings. Trainers had to use a fire extinguisher to force the tiger to release his grip.

Horn suffered a stroke and a severed spine in the attack and lost a significant amount of blood. 

He suffered partial paralysis for the rest of his life, and the duo never performed again.

Although Apple has been developing ‘Wild Things’ since 2022, Garfield and Law are set to join the cast in May 2025.

They’re both working as executive producers, and John Hoffman is taking on multiple roles: he’s the executive producer, showrunner, and director, having originally created the show.

Will Malnati and Steven Leckart, who also created the original podcast, are executive producers of Wild Things.

I’m keeping an eye on Justin Garfield – he’s really making waves right now! He just finished a role in Luca Guadagnino’s new thriller, ‘After The Hunt,’ where he plays a professor facing serious accusations from a student, played brilliantly by Ayo Edebiri. And it’s fantastic to see Julia Roberts as a colleague who gets pulled into the drama. It’s a really compelling story, and Garfield’s performance is definitely one to watch.

He most recently appeared on television in the popular 2022 true-crime series, Under The Banner Of Heaven.

Hugh Law will soon star as Vladimir Putin in a fictional political thriller called The Wizard of the Kremlin, directed by French filmmaker Olivier Assayas.

In 2024, he became part of the Star Wars world on Disney+ with the show Skeleton Crew, which is related to The Mandalorian.
