In August, we had lost the phenomenal Terrance Stamp at age 87, who brought darkness, realism and camp to so many roles, including his iconic role as Bernadette in "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert"
This morning, it is reported on Queerty that, foreseeing his demise due to health and age, Stamp pre-filmed ALL of his parts for the sequel to the 1994 classic. The sequel has been in the works since 2020 and began to gain production momentum in 2024. Stamp was adamant that he needed to be physically represented in the film, and not done through AI and CGI. "He didn't want a digital clone of himself".
What a wonderful ode to the genre by such a dedicated professional!
He wants this Priscilla to be his final curtain.
Onward,
Rade
