Joe Alwyn lands new movie role after Taylor Swift breakup
Joe Alwyn is focusing on work following his breakup from Taylor Swift.
The British actor, 32, landed a role in the upcoming film “The Brutalist,” according to a press release Tuesday.
The drama — directed by Brady Corbet — chronicles “thirty years of an artist’s life and his enduring creative journey” after he leaves a post-war Europe and flees to America.
Alwyn was cast alongside leads Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones and Guy Pearce, and filming is already underway in Hungary.
Meanwhile, Swift, 33, is keeping busy herself with her sold-out Eras Tour, which has a stop next in Tampa, Fla., on Thursday.
However, the multi-Grammy award winner found some time for fun in New York City Monday night.
Swift was seen in her first post-breakup announcement sighting eating at Italian restaurant Via Carota in the Big Apple.
She was joined by Jack Antonoff, who worked with her on her most recent album, “Midnights,” and his fiancée, Margaret Qualley.
For more Page Six you love…
A source confirmed to Page Six on Saturday that Swift and Alwyn had called it quits after six years together.
“It wasn’t dramatic,” an insider claimed, noting that the relationship just “ran its course.”
The split came as a shock to fans as the couple had not only been together for a long time, but they were also rumored to have gotten secretly married.
However, a source exclusively denied to Page Six this week that the “All Too Well” singer and the “Conversations with Friends” actor ever wed, telling us that reports of an undercover ceremony were “fully not true.”
In April 2022, Alwyn himself also addressed speculation that he had proposed to Swift.
“If I had a pound for every time I think I’ve been told I’ve been engaged, then I’d have a lot of pound coins,” he told WSJ. Magazine at the time.
“I mean, the truth is, if the answer was yes, I wouldn’t say, and if the answer was no, I wouldn’t say.”
Alwyn and Swift were notoriously private throughout their lengthy courtship — aside from award show sightings — and the “The Favourite” star explained to WSJ. of his decision to be reserved with his romance, “If you give it to them, it just opens the door.”
