You’re reading a website named Daily Actor, so I think it’s a fair assumption that you like Shakespeare. Because of that, you’ll probably agree with Sir Ben Kingsley‘s assessment that the best way to keep Shakespeare’s work relevant is to keep it as what it was always meant to be:
Laura Linney is currently in theaters in The Fifth Estate about WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and his rise to power as a free-speech activist. The story raises many complicated issues about information and how it should be distributed even when it affects global security. The Big C actress talked to
Daniel Brühl has broken through in 2013 as a rising star to watch in Hollywood. As a German actor, this is quite an impressive feat since it’s harder for foreign actors to make a splash in the American film market. Not only did Brühl impress audiences in Ron Howard‘s Rush

James on creating a character: “I try and approach things from all directions”
Some people have very traditional routes in pursuing their acting career by studying at a prestigious school, making their way out to Los Angeles and eventually getting their first big break. For The Walking Dead‘s Norman Reedus, his path was anything but traditional. In an interview with the U.K.’s Metro, he
Seems like the autographed photo I have from Sylvester Stallone is a lot more valuable than I thought… Stallone made a rare New York Comic-Con appearance to promote his upcoming film Escape Plan (which co-stars fellow 80s action movie icon Arnold Schwarzenegger) and while there decided to do what many
