I love going to work out now. It gets out aggression and my trainer really shakes it up so I don't get bored.
You have to work with what you are given, even in Shakespeare. we have our form and it is important that we free ourselves through it.
To date or not to date that is the question. It's almost as important as Shakespeare's to be or not to be which deals with death.
There are a lot of roles in Shakespeare, basically. If I feel that the script is a movie, I would be interested in doing any role of Shakespeare's.
I do believe, and I will always believe, that Shakespeare on film is really something that should be tried more often because it is an opportunity to take the humanity that Shakespeare writes into characters and express it.
Doing Shakespeare once is not fair to the play. I have been in Shakespeare plays when it's not until the last two or three performances when I even understand certain things. In the old days star actors would travel the world doing the same parts over and over again.
Shakespeare's plays are more violent than 'Scarface.'
Unless you're doing Shakespeare or Chekhov... the written word is not sacrosanct.
For example, Americans seem reluctant to take on Shakespeare because you don't think you're very good at it - which is rubbish. You're missing out here.
You'll see Dame Judi Dench in a Bond film, in Shakespeare and then starring in her own sitcom. You never see that here with Meryl Streep.
