For Eddie Redmayne, tackling the role of transgender icon Lili Elbe in "The Danish Girl" was "an extraordinary experience," but also a "delicate" and "complicated" process.

The Academy Award-winning actor, 33, tells Out magazine that he sought extensive advice from transgender men and women, including "Cloud Atlas" director Lana Wachowski, for his role in the new movie, which is slated for a November release. He'd found himself so profoundly moved by the "Danish Girl" script, which he called "a piece about authenticity and love and the courage it takes to be yourself," and aimed to turn in a worthy performance that would respect that quality."
