Felicity Jones Talks Playing Ruth Bader Ginsburg In 'The Illusionist' For Porter Edit Dec. 7, 2018
Actor Felicity Jones graces the pages of Porter Edit’s Dec. 7 issue, styled by Tracy Taylor in ‘The Illusionist’ by Matthew Sprout.
Jones was in Washington, DC Tuesday night for the premier of the new biopic ‘On the Basis of Sex’, in which Jones plays Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Notorious RBG, now 85, posed with Jones and also Armie Hammer who plays her late husband Martin Ginsburg, and Justin Theroux, who plays former ACLU legal director Melvin Wulf. Read the opening night details at The Hollywood Reporter.
Back to Porter Edit, Jane Mulkerrins interviews Jones about playing heroic women.
While the film documents Ginsburg’s path to the highest legal appointment in the land, a path beset by sexism and misogyny, it is also a portrait of her very modern marriage to fellow lawyer Marty, played in the film by Armie Hammer, who supported his wife’s career unreservedly. Marty did all the cooking at home, says Jones: “They believed that gender stereotypes limit both men and women, that the patriarchy holds everyone back.” The apartment, she says, remains full of “the remnants of their life together – including racks of Marty’s cooking pots”. Now, Jones does not take her own opportunities for granted. “You’re not just expected to settle down and have children,” she notes. “If you want to do that, then that’s equally as valid a choice. But if you have ambition, why not follow it?”
The film ‘On the Basis of Sex’ opens in US theaters on Dec. 25 and in the UK on Feb. 8.

Woodley speaks frankly about her serious side with Jennifer Dickinson, about the sisterhood of 'Big Little Lies' and today's debut of 'Adrift', "a survival story based on Tami Oldham and Richard Sharp’s 1983 experience of being caught in a hurricane and stranded at sea for 41 days, co-starring Brit actor Sam Claflin. Woodley, 26, says she was “stripped to her core” by filming, which involved journeying into open sea every day, jumping into the water to pee when the boat’s toilet broke, and forgoing dinner every day for a month to illustrate Oldham's slow starvation."

One of fashion's favorite mega models, '90s star Carolyn Murphy is a progressive woman on the move. Murphy is long associated with American style, with her flair for wearing a white tee with denim cutoffs, but throwing on a sterling silver cuff. Murphy is lensed by Matthew Sprout, with styling by Laura Ferrera.
Murphy is surprisingly low-maintenance for a model, writes the September issue of InStyle. She has no team of handlers and her Instagram feed features shots of her gardening or riding her horse Doc. Of course, Carolyn Murphy can become a sex bomb for Tom Ford, dominating steaming editorial pages with the top fashion industry pros. But glam is not her persona, and her love of artisan crafts -- including Detroit's Shinola brand, where she became the women's design director after flying there to shoot a brand campaign with Bruce Weber -- is the foundation of her next venture. Along with launching Shinola's 'Argonite' print magazine, débuting this fall.
Meet mammamurphy.com, Carolyn Murphy's future artisan-products website. "Everyone calls me Mamma Murphy," she tells InStyle. "It's been my nickname forever."
