  • Quotes
    I think actors tend to talk a lot about what they would really like to do, but the fact is that an actor is someone for hire. Whatever they want to do, if someone offers them a million pounds to do a part, their attention will be drawn to that and they will leave whatever it is they would like to do until later.
