Stephen Hawking Wanted to Go Partying with Felicity Jones

British actress Felicity Jones stars in the "The Theory of Everything" as Stephen Hawking's first wife, Jane Wilde Hawking and reveals that she has been charmed by one of the world's most famous theoretical physicist and cosmologist.

The 31-year old actress revealed, "He has such a dry sense of humor... He has a real rockstar energy... He had seen a screening of the film... and afterwards he was like 'Can we go to to a nightclub? Let's go out and party!' which I love!"

Aside from sharing how Stephen invited her to a nightclub, she also talked about how she knew that she had earned a Best Actress nomination for her work in the movie.

In an interview with "The Jonathan Ross Show", she said, "You are told you'll get a phone call at 5.30am. I just thought I'll sleep through it, I wasn't really expecting a nomination... I thought, 'it's fine, I'll wake up at 10am and it'll all have happened and I'll probably be commiserating... so I can just spend the day in bed."

"But then I woke up at about 4am, just sprung up... So I just nervously waited then I got a phone call saying I'd been nominated," she added.

When she asked what she felt after receiving the good news, Felicity said gleefully, "There were no words. There was just lots of hyperventilating and exclamations and screaming and jumping around in my pyjamas!"

"The Theory of Everything" is a biographical romantic drama film about Stephen and his wife. Aside from Felicity, the movie also stars Eddie Redmayne, Emily Watson, Charlie Cox, Simon McBurney, David Thewlis and Christian McKay. It has won several awards including the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Drama for Eddie, Golden Globe Best Original Score, and has been nominated in the 87th Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Actor for Eddie and Best Actress for Felicity.

The Theory of Everything is still showing in theaters.
