I like being called 'Mr. Freeman' occasionally.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Martin Freeman is a genius, he really is. He gives you every color of the rainbow in every take and it's wonderful just to play off of him and opposite him.
I remember years ago being on the set of 'Dreamcatcher' and not only did I have such great admiration for Morgan Freeman and was just thrilled to be around him, I was struck by the fact that he seemed to be having perhaps more fun than I was at his job. And I thought, 'Well, that's very promising.'
I've not worked with Martin Freeman. I've hung out with him, but I've not worked with him.
I've always maintained my name will not define my films, my films will define my name. But I wish I was called Steve, or something else.
I've been called 'the voice actor.'
I call everyone 'Darling' because I can't remember their names.
Unless you're a salesman, or a bad guest on a talk show, you don't call someone by his name that often.
I would love to work with Morgan Freeman. I love him.
'Mahershala' is my nickname.
I was always called Payne or Payno.
