Les Miserables star Eddie Redmayne was spotted bringing the geek factor with thick rimmed glasses and a tweed blazer on the set of his new movie Theory of Everything.

Redmayne is channeling his inner Stephen Hawking for the biopic of the famed physicist. The movie follows Hawking during his time at Cambridge, before his motor neurone diagnosis, where he met his first wife, art student Jane Wilde.

Redmayne even got to meet Hawking on set back in September.

Hawking, who is most famous for his bestseller A Brief History of Time, was diagnosed with motor neurone disease when he was 21 and only given two years to live. He later went on to write numerous books, marry twice, have three children, and become not only a scientific but pop culture icon.

The film is based on Jane Hawking’s memoir Travelling to Infinity: My Life With Stephen and is being produced by Working Title Films.

Like Crazy actress Felicity Jones is also undergoing a 1960s makeover to play Redmayne’s love interest Jane Wilde.

BAFTA award winner James Marsh is in the director’s chair and other cast members include Emily Watson,  David Thewlis, Charlie Cox, and Maxine Peake.

The movie is currently being shot on location at Cambridge and around the U.K. and is set for release in 2015.
