Eddie Redmayne says playing a transgender woman in the 2015 film « The Danish Girl » was a mistake. « No, I wouldn’t take it on now, » Redmayne said in an interview with London’s Sunday Times. « I made that film with the best intentions, but I think it was a mistake. » « The Danish Girl, » which is based on the 2000 novel of the same name, tells the story of Lile Elbe, one of the first people to undergo gender reassignment surgery. The film, directed by Tom Hooper, was nominated for four Academy Awards, including Redmayne’s nomination for best actor.
