I did not want to put myself on the line, as an Australian playing Britain's greatest comic actor. The fans of Sellers are obsessive, possessive - and aggressive. I did not want to risk their anger - or my own reputation. (Ward Fred)
As an actor, you can do what you want with your role. That's why they hire you; to take the role and make it real. (Ward Fred)
He just really rarely requires that his actors go to the gym, which was a plus for me. And I didn't have to hang from a 50-foot building. (Ward Fred)
I think it was a very flirtatious scene and also having Jonathan to act opposite, who is such a very talented actor, removes all the 'cheese factor' that might be possible. (Ward Fred)
I pay attention to the actors and stuff, but not even that much. I don't pay attention to who's writing. (Ward Fred)
I enjoy stimulation on all levels. I think it makes me better as an actor. (Ward Fred)
I won't just work gun for hire. I'm better as an actor if I have my hands in it. (Ward Fred)
Joe Montana goes up to the line and he has a set play. He's expecting the defense to be a certain way, as we can expect another actor to be. (Ward Fred)
We're not going to key you in with music, with false reactions from the actors. We want that documentary behavioral feel. (Ward Fred)
When actors talk about research, they're just patting themselves on the back. (Ward Fred)
When you look at some of the most respected actors there are and the crap that they're in... it didn't used to be that way. (Ward Fred)
You had very good English actors, but they certainly didn't have the male factor; the sexuality was definitely suspect. (Ward Fred)
You know how many movies it took Tom Cruise before he was making 5, 6 million dollars? It probably took a billion dollars in box office. (Ward Fred)
I should be getting photographs of me with my arm around these people like restaurant owners do, because eventually I am going to have to prove to my kids that once I was an actor! (Ward Fred)
Actors are the best and the worst of people. They're like kids. When they're good, they're very very good. When they're bad they're very very naughty. (Ward Fred)
I like to cast actors I admire, one's that are talented. Each one will bring something new to the part. This play has been done thousands of times and now certain characters are too familiar. (Ward Fred)
I've been around where I knew other actors were going to steal the scene, and I don't compete with them. (Ward Fred)
It's surprising, because a lot of what an actor does isn't about what you say, it's how you behave. The challenge is to fill in all the stuff behind it. (Ward Fred)
We've made a lot of progress. Gays in the past have portrayed the villains on TV and in the movies; we've never had positive gay actors. (Ward Fred)
I know! I was shocked! It was a little scary that they were writing serious reviews, like they would review any other actor or show. (Ward Fred)
There are people who do De Niro and Walken impersonations. (Ward Fred)
