Zitat des Tages von Shawn Ashmore:
I'm 25, so I've already gone through what my character Ged goes through, though it's on a general scale because I haven't studied at a wizard's school.
Ultimately, I think it's just going to get you that exposure, get you in that door, get you that recognition that will hopefully get you opportunities.
The real excitement and big deal for me started when I got cast in the first X-Men, which was sort of a fluke.
I just got Kill Bill: Vol. 2. I've watched it like eight times in the past two months. I just love the scene at the end between David Carradine and Uma Thurman.
The genre of fantasy is about magic and occult characters.
It doesn't get more iconic than Terry Fox.
I think Ian McKellen made it all happen, because he used to throw dinner parties and invite everyone over.
I would love to be able to pursue music as a career but honestly, I'm just not good enough.
Why would people spend good money to have my pants?
You get bored if you do the same thing too much.
As a teenager at high school, I felt like an outsider.
Some people talk about screen kisses being strange or uncomfortable. But I think that I got along with Anna well enough that it just happened; it was a fun day of shooting.
Getting to play superheros is a pretty good job.
I think it's more fun to play a hero with an edge.
Comic books and The Chronicles of Narnia. My mother used to read those to me and my twin brother growing up.
I'm a video game buff.
So it wasn't actually that bad, it took a couple of weeks to sort of get used to uh, you know, standing around and pretending to have ice shoot out of your hand, but once you got used to that it uh, it was actually not that hard.
Style is a reflection of your attitude and your personality.
I read the comics long before I was ever involved with the films.
Lord of the Rings is a good thing for us because it opened the door for the genre in general. Le Guin's stories are very different from Lord of the Rings.
Playing a character who's dealing not only with a superpower but having a normal relationship is easy to associate with, because I feel that everyone has been through it.
Being a villain is great, even though I've only gotten to do it a few times.
Our first scene is sort of a reunion between the X-Men characters, which establishes everyone's relationship to one another, sort of like a recap for all those who have forgotten since the last movie.
No designer has really wowed me yet, I'm into other people's recommendations when it comes to fashion.
Instead of being on teams at school, I was preparing for auditions.
