Jude Law Comes Out for the NYC Screening of ‘The Young Pope’

by Sydney Sadick

If Jude Law melted your heart in The Holiday, and you’ve suffered from a ridiculous decade-long crush, chances are you get excited any time he hits the big or small screen. While it’s not a rom-com, the actor is starring in a new HBO series titled The Young Pope, a drama created and directed by Paolo Sorrentino and co-starring actress Diane Keaton. Law plays the first pope in American history, Lenny Belardo, a.k.a. Pius XIII. The series sheds light on how the young and charming Belardo was likely elected as a result of a simple, yet effective, media strategy on the part of the College of Cardinals. Pius XIII proves to be different from what people thought—turns out he was the most mysterious and contradictory Vatican resident of that time.
