Farrell/Leto Throwback:
In April 2014 Jared was in Thailand, mind you, ten years after the shooting of Alexander had ended there, and he used the trip for a little sightseeing and a big ol’ non mention of the movie that allegedly “changed [his] life”. The year before, while campaigning for the Oscar, he had successively morphed back into his Hephaistion form - long, flowing hair and on/off beard - and then stayed this way for the next decade.
Thank you, Google Lens! These are the places he posted. All of those pictures (and some more) were captioned and sounded like a personal dialogue with someone.
left: “My view right now. Yours?”
middle: “Paradise. #ThinkingAboutYou.”
right: “The secret beach. #paradisefound”
Tumblr media
Who could that someone be?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He went there after the shooting of Alexander had wrapped in February 2004 to recuperate. Depending on which old news source you trust, he fell down hotel stairs or from a table while dancing or jumped from a second story balcony, shitfaced in every scenario, thereby doing to himself what you can see in the picture and also jeopardizing the movie shoot, just a few days before it was to end. But he pushed through anyway and delivered some cool scenes. The photo shows him at Maya beach, the “secret beach” that Jared chose to post too ten years later. Colin also stayed in Rai Leh/Railay at a resort, where, ten years later, Jared chooses to make a sunset selfie and an intimate dedication. Such nice coincidences.
Was this the last great episode of FL signalling?
From what I remember, a few months later his yachting era would kick off in Capri with teenie future ex-girlfriend VK and CB and all those other people, giant ego boost included. And Colin? As was to be expected after the Golden Globes weirdness between them and after the release of an album (LLF+D) that was a breakup album with not so nice things said about a lyrical you that could’ve easily fit CF’s me, the cold era commenced.

“He too is Alexander”/“He too is Jensen Ackles” — how dare you awaken Alexander (2004) feelings within me. 😩 That’s just one precarious step away from Farrelleto truthing
Pssssst, I'll let you in on a secret: I used to ship farrelleto & I still would be but now I think Jared doesn't deserve Colin lmao I do still miss them though and Alexander, too. Yearly rewatch is upon us!

“My Remedy,” a Farrelleto one-shot
Colin is worn out after a long day of filming, and he's feeling more than a little melancholy. Jared wants to help...but he has limits on just how far he's willing to go to ease his friend's pain. Especially since he knows that neither of them wants to just be friends...

MCN Alexander screening, November 16 2004...
Here's the caption by a guy who attended saying, that he perceived Jared doing things just to be noticed by Colin...
Tumblr media
Say what?! Can it be true?
Look at the 1000-watt smile crossing Jared's face. He's rarely had that in public, but always with Colin. This smile is a very special unguarded smile, almost as if… it was authentic.
Tumblr media
Here's Colin desperate for a smoke and his beer bottle.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rosario Dawson was also present.
Look at their rosy faces. I don't know why, but I think they were all fairly content that day. And Mr. Leto, well, he's seldomly looked like that in public since, if you ask me. His public persona is way more cagey (as it probably should be). He looks downright boyish and dreamy here and he's not that. Maybe he's high, I don't know.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jared was thirsting for his attention. Madly.
In this clip he's inserting himself into the conversation, or rather, monologue. Diverting attention away from Colin while also diverting it towards himself. The remarkable thing here: Jared chimes in and seems to say exactly the same words at the same time as Colin, but mockingly.
I don't understand what he's saying exactly, but it's meant to take the piss out of Colin. And it works. Jared has the laughs on his side. Colin pretends to ignore it, he doesn't look at him, doesn't laugh along, but there's irritation and an instant attempt at self-defense, something along the lines of: it sounds like a lie, but it is true.
Actually, I'm not sure what this babble is about...
but the more I watched it and tried to reconstruct context, the clearer became the subtext, and this discussion seems anachronistic now. I think Colin doesn't have much of a clue what he's talking about, he's just talking. Nature/nurture something. So here the longer version:
youtube
Can Alexander be a warrior king and gay at the same time? And could Colin Farrell play someone like that? What a very serious question to discuss in 2004!
But this demonstrates that 2004 was still a different age, the year before Brokeback Mountain, when this was scandalous in a blockbuster movie (it's still not common) and they pandered to an audience that had in large parts internalized homophobia.
Jared and Colin's dynamic is funny, here and on other occasions, too. Jared really had it bad for him

So, the casting of Hephaistion was pretty much settled before the casting process even started...
How did Jared get the job? This is how it officially went down:
early May 2003: casting notice goes out for Hephaistion
Tumblr media
He auditioned.
"It was my first audition since Panic Room, which was a couple of years before, and I was completely petrified," confesses Leto. "There were 50 other people there to meet Oliver, and it was incredibly intimidating. But when I auditioned, thankfully, he saw something in me that he thought might be right for Hephaistion. I'll be eternally grateful to him for believing in me and giving me this experience. He works harder than any other person on the set. He's obsessed, he's a mad genius, like Van Gogh or Beethoven. He's taught me a lot on this film, and I'll carry those things with me for the rest of my career."
He was cast.
early August 2003: announcement.
But wait...
early July 2003: Rumors that Jared had already secured the role despite "hundreds of young Irish actors" reading for Stone in June. Jared joined Stone, Colin and "some other actors" in Dublin at the bar in Bono's hotel. Hanging with U2, of course.
Tumblr media
WAIT
April 2003: is when Jared (officially split from Cameron Diaz) says he knew he had the movie and was growing his hair out. And he did. He did.
Tumblr media
Maybe he's just a little confused? Yet it's obvious he was cast long before it was announced, even before the casting notice, and while people were still auditioning for the role. Pretty much the same with Angelina. She was set. Stone wanted her to play mum Olympias even though she was the same age as Colin. I love this outrageous movie. It deserves a movie about its making.

Me now: By talos, this cannot be happening

Colin Farrell Comes Out as Bisexual
Dumbo star Colin Farrell, 42, has something to say.
"I f---king hate labels," he says, half audible, as he takes another swig of his Starbucks coffee. "I get the need, man, [when it comes to other people] but for me it's never done anything but harm." His roguish Irish accent seems to thicken with emotion as he contemplates his next statement.
Truth be told, the sentiment wasn't entirely relevant to my original question, but that seems to be how it works with Farrell. Ask him a question and you will get fifteen minutes of pensive observations about life, love, and even food- earlier, he told me with passionate relief he'd just eaten his first burger in months, then waxed poetic about the simplicity of American cuisine.
"When I was younger, I always had labels tossed at me, and I had to either dodge or lean into them. 'Leading man,' 'action star,' that sort of bulls--t. Unfortunately I leaned into them until my thirties or so, when I realized, 'f--k, this is my career. I can pursue whatever films I want.' But that's the nature of Hollywood, y'know, you gotta fit in a box or they don't know how to carry you."
Farrell is interrupted by a young man, whose sister is a "huge fan." After leaving a voicemail (in which he scolded the sister for skipping class to see a midnight screening of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them,) Colin graciously shook the young man's hand, complimented his shoes, and wished him well.
I tell Colin about another actor, who shall remain nameless, I witnessed cursing off a woman and her star-struck child in a similar situation.
"That's a weird way to compliment me," Farrell jokes with a boyish grin, "but I appreciate you setting the bar so low." He laughs as he raises his drink for another sip, but then continues his previous thought. "That's not to say my only experience with labels is when making flicks. I ain't that sheltered. It's part of how humanity is wired, mentally. Are you good or bad? Old or young? Gay or straight?"
Jokingly, I ask him if this is his way of coming out. His famously bushy brows furrow and for a second I fear being on the wrong end of his early oughts temper. 
To my surp...Read more here

Just my opinion about the scene then Alexander and Hephaestion talked to each other on the balcony. And there was a monent then I swear you can see a tears in Alexander's eyes then he tells Hephaestion "It is you I love, no other"
I was really impressed, Alexander tells him that he loves him, only him. That literally the answer to the question "Is there no love in your life, Alexander?" Alexander's answer "It is you I love, Hephaestion, no other" And he almost cried telling that to his lover, he loved him soo much that he cries while telling "I love you" to him. That the kind of love that literally makes me cry.
