Im Fokus der Jaguar Magazine Ausgabe 02-2015: Kassenschlager aller Art. Unter anderem sprachen wir mit Tom Hiddleston, dem Star vieler Hollywood-Blockbuster (Avengers, Thor) und Gesicht der neuesten Werbekampagne von Jaguar. Mehr als ein Nebendarsteller – wir verraten welche Jaguar-Modelle in welchen Filmen eine Rolle spielen. Außerdem stellen wir in zwei exklusiven Fotoshootings den revolutionären F-PACE und die neue Familie der Jaguar-Limousinen vor.

CONTENTS

CONTENTS BLOCKBUSTER The word “blockbuster” may be best known as a way of labelling a successful (and profitable) film or book, but it has a wider dictionary meaning that extends to any “particularly effective or successful thing or person”. Which got us thinking about blockbusters of all kinds and seemed like a neat theme for this issue. To represent film, we speak to Tom Hiddleston, star of many a Hollywood blockbuster (Thor, Avengers) and Jaguar’s latest ad campaign, and also take a look at the remarkably diverse roles Jaguar cars have played in film history. Then there are blockbusting products via two exclusive photoshoots from the game-changing F-PACE crossover to a new family of Jaguar saloons. Or blockbusting travel, from our inside-track story on Shanghai one of the world’s most important modern cities to a profile of Airbnb’s founder, who has transformed the way millions of us go on holiday. All in all, we think this issue has the ingredients to match its title. But we’ll let you be the judge of that… 42 54 60 54 CONTRIBUTORS Sjoerd ten Kate is a true car-nut. The Dutchman describes his style as spontaneous and ‘honest’ but always graphic. What would he describe as his latest blockbuster experience? “Shooting the F-PACE exclusively for J-Magazine on a private air strip surrounded by security months before its official unveil.” Good answer (See p16 and p78) Shiraz Randeria is the London-born, Shanghai-based creative director of fashion, art and design brand Kingdom Of Heaven and also writes and photographs for Wallpaper* and Elle. “My last blockbuster experience was Jurassic World at a 24-hour IMAX cinema: a 2am screening with a raucous audience. Great dino-fun” (See his city guide, p34) John Arlidge writes for the Sunday Times Magazine in London and Condé Nast in New York. For J-Magazine he profiles the remarkable Airbnb founder Brian Chesky. His blockbuster experience is a bit of a biggie. “I recently flew around the world non-stop. 26,000 miles in four days. I didn’t have jet lag. I had place lag” (see p60) 6 j THE BLOCKBUSTER ISSUE
