Another year of TIFF almost always means another year featuring Michael Sheen, and 2010 is no different. Though the subject most definitely is: The Welsh stage and screen veteran arrives this week with the world premiere of Beautiful Boy , featuring Sheen opposite Maria Bello as a dissolving married couple who must relearn how to live with each other after their son goes on a mass murder-suicide gun rampage at his college. Writer-director Shawn Ku’s debut feature goes a few places you might expect and a lot more you probably wouldn’t; Sheen spoke about the film, his role, his diligence at character “fusion,” and intriguing news about his future (or possible lack thereof) with the Twilight franchise.
