I did a production of Macbeth in the 1960s in which I had a swordfight in the final scene. But the blade fell off my sword just as I was stabbing the guy. I ended up having to hammer him to death.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was in a production of 'Macbeth.'
I'm much more likely to get lynched over 'The Killing' than 'Macbeth.'
I've done movies with a sword before. But I haven't really been given the full responsibility of something like a Ridley Scott film.
The only still center of my life is Macbeth. To go back to doing this bloody, crazed, insane mass-murderer is a huge relief after trying to get my cell phone replaced.
My first part in a play was one of the witches in 'Macbeth.'
'Macbeth' is an amazing story.
Making a film is very hard work, and you live or die by the sword just a little bit every time you do it, but I wouldn't chuck it in.
A sword never kills anybody; it is a tool in the killer's hand.
I couldn't pick up a sword and go fight anyone, let me put it that way. It's choreography and it's acting. The best sword fights you see look amazing, but it's the acting that sells it more than anything.
'Macbeth' was a very lucky play for me.
