“I’d love to be in one of his films, that would be awesome,” he admitted.
“I read a speech from one of his plays to get into drama school, one of my first jobs out of drama school was the role I played a character from the play I read the speech from.”
“The writing is top drawer, you can’t find better writing then this. It’s a privilege working with him really,” he added.
