You've worked alongside some of the finest British acting talent over the last decade, did anyone in particular made a big impression on you?
"There's a few really, but all of them are so fantastic to be around and so easy to talk to. Jason Isaacs was always one that was very keen and he'd say - not in a pretentious way - 'How about trying to do it this way and see how it is?' and we'd try different things. Jason was always really good at that. I never went to drama school or had professional training, so it was great to have someone like Jason on set who could put these ideas forward.

Re: Interviews
It's really cool to have these powerhouses of British acting just there chatting - it's amazing what you can pick up."
Matthew compliments Alan Rickman here, too. What a treat for these relatively unknown child actors to have this much exposure to the cream of Britain's crop of actors. It's got to rub off.

Re: Interviews
many actors would not take the time, nor be bothered trying to help others who are just starting
as actors...always knew Jason would make a Grand Teacher

Re: Interviews
Yes, Jason is always ready to help others. do extra publicity and appearances. Not all actors do. It's all part of making a good movie or TV show.
Re: Interviews
He makes appearances at and judges many of those young filmmakers groups to encourage them.

I can see Jason eventually directing....He seems to have a 6th sense for it!

Re: Interviews
Although I think he would excel as a director, I want his face and acting talents in front of the camera - not behind it.

Re: Interviews
I totally agree with Marie, I'd rather see him in front of the camera..
He will make an excellent director
(He did rather well with a group of fans on a sunny afternoon in London, at the
stage door of the Dumb Waiter) I thought he was the Pied Piper LOL

Re: Interviews
I want him in front of the camera too. He can decide to be a director or not, but I truly don't believe he will stop acting. We know how passionate he is about his job.

Re: Interviews
Sometimes the lead actor of a series gets to direct a couple of episodes. This would give him a chance to try it out and see how he does.
Re: Interviews
Particularly if he also has producer credit, which I believe he does. He gets more say that way.
Re: Interviews
I wonder whether he'll have a say on directors? Given that big name film directors occasionally take on a TV show I rather like the idea of a Paul Greengrass episode of Awake.Helen8 wrote:Particularly if he also has producer credit, which I believe he does. He gets more say that way.
