Hello everyone! Benās birthday is coming up on April 3rd, so itās time for our yearly birthday project again! If youāre new here please take a moment to scroll through the page and look at everyoneās wonderful entries from previous years.Ā
The rules:
- Wish Ben a happy birthday! Write a letter, take a picture, record a video, draw fanart, whatever you want, but please keep it respectful! Be sure to sign with your name (youād be suprised how often people forget).
- Submit it to this page, or email it to [email protected]
- Deadline is Thursday April 1st (not a joke :p)
I will post all entries on this Tumblr page and will try my best to get the link to Ben so he can see all of your birthday messages!
Here we are, at the end of our fourth successful year of Mendelweek celebrations (in a row!), so give yourself another round of applause!!! To all of the Homies who make up our Mendo Fam, everything was possible thanks to you as always, for our fourth consecutive year that was filled with amazing, wonderful, talented creative works!!! We had 38 new works and our follower count has also increased to 312 fans of Ben Mendelsohn now!!! Letās keep the number going as high as we can get it, the more the merrier, everyone is welcome here! \O/
I just wanted to take the time to say Thank You to every single one of you who made a video or a gifset or your personal artwork or an edit of any kind or wrote something from the heart, all of them are just as important and beautiful and full of hard work and we all thank you for sharing these, without all of you there wouldnāt be an event really! Kudos to everyone and cheers!!!Ā
Not sure where I found this one, but I know itās from Metal Skin, apologies for not citing the photo š¬
Favorite music video: Lover to Lover by Florence+the Machine
Favorite guilty pleasures: Vince from āTangleā, the #jynnic fandom šš, and a series of NSFW YouTube videos, the channel is benmendelsohnappreciation, and ALL of the fanfic Iāve read, especially @sanctuarytrin, @ennaih @olderguysandcutiepies, @sufferthesea
Roles Iād like to see him play: a romantic lead who gets the woman in the end without too much angst, a detective based on several Scandinavian crime novel series, Shakespeare (I think heād make a great Iago in āOthelloā), some sort of good guy in a sci-fi/fantasy flick or TV series

The kitteh in Mississippi Grind, Flerken-Goose in Captain Marvel (Talos does mega-foreshadowing, eh?), the bit about Mendo stopping filming of Adore to let a cat cross the street, Anders adopting the turtle in The Land of Steady Habits, Robin and his little dogs in The Place Beyond the Pines, that celebration scene with Springsteen playing after the bank robbery. And the pictures of him in the puppy booth at 2018 TIFF as well as the pictures of him and the floofy white dog!

In 2019, The Guardian published a piece written by his ex, Emma Forrest, titled āNotes from a Hollywood Divorceā. Separate from being Mendoās ex, I donāt particularly care for Emma Forrest, Iāve read her books and articles and while I admire her history of being a young female music writer, I feel like her writing is fairly self serving, rendolent of Elizabeth Wurtzel. I also donāt think that āUntogetherā is a great movie (aside from, of course Martin).
The article and stories are not particularly sweet or flattering, but it gives a tiny peek into personal details about an otherwise private man. It also is a great illustration about how passion and chemistry doesnāt always translate into a happy marriage. Thereās a bit in the article about writing the character of Martin specifically for Mendo that I thinks perfectly sums up how I see him in my own head.
āI wrote the role of Martin for Ben, to showcase his guileless, joyful side, the half of him that is Iggy Pop just wanting to be your dog.ā
The article shares aspects of his personality, bits about their relationship, their chemistry and ultimately why their marriage didnāt work. It also talks about what itās like directing your ex in the midst of a divorce and speaks about putting your differences aside for the sake of work and that speaks volumes about the maturity of both of them.
Thereās also another quote from Emma, and I canāt find it now, but itās basically his reaction to her about the article. The gist of it is that he told her āI read it, I donāt like parts of it, but I told you that Iād support you in writing itā. That in and of itself gives another sliver of his private thoughts.
I suppose the moral of the story is that you can stan/ship/obsess about someone, but the reality is, they are human, warts and all. AND the best part of adoring someone famous from afar is you can disregard their not so attractive bits. Or you can attribute the article to sour grapes from an ex, though I donāt think that was the purpose of the article.
I wrote a part for my husband in my first movie. By the time filming was over, so was our marriage
Hereās a nice still from āUntogetherā that isnāt Martin singing š
@mendelevents
#Mendel Week, #ben mendelsohn, # Iām late on day 5, #please donāt hate me for posting something that isnāt blatant adoration, #i blame pandemic lockdown for these deep internet dives, #divorce sux, #untogether, #i donāt care what Emma sez, I still adore him.

One of the many stories I love about Ben is when he paid for a ādisabled balā (Iām not sure about the correct terms, sorry if itās not right). I canāt find any information about this but Iām not writing about it, specifically.
Iām not gonna lie, thinking of only one story about Ben is very hard. I could have talked about all the times he proposed coffee to a journalist or how he takes time to talk and listen when there is no time for this. Those gestures show how big his heart is. How he pays attention, how generous he seems to be. Admiring someone can be disappointing for many reasons but what I love about Ben is that he never posed as somebody else. He is real, authentic and I guess it must be hard to learn to know him. But it would be even harder to be disappointed by him.
