The amazing Kevin Spacey has declared his disinterest in any role given to him strictly on what directors think he can bring to a simple role. And unless you’re Martin Scorsese you may not have a chance!
The acting veteran Kevin Spacey has announced that he will be extra choosy when it comes to upcoming acting roles! In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Spacey simply stated that “Unless it’s Martin Scorsese, and it’s a really significant role, f–k off.”
“I’m not playing someone’s brother. I’m not playing the station manager. I’m not playing the FCC chairman. People thought I was crazy 11 years ago when I moved to London and started a theater company. ‘What is he doing? He’s out of his mind.’ People thought we were crazy when we made the Netflix deal for ‘House of Cards.’ ‘They’re out of their minds, it’ll never work.’ I’m used to people thinking I’m nuts. And you know what? I kind of love it.”
Spacey’s credibility in the film world allows him to pick and choose which projects he is most drawn to, and now he is letting it known they he will not be starring in just any movie:
“There are a lot of people out there who offer roles to actors because they’ll elevate their movie to a place the movie would never reach,” he told THR. “They offer them a s–tload of money for a crap part, but it doesn’t make the movie any better. And I’m not interested in elevating someone’s crap movie.”
