SUMMONER'S TALES...
"I never had an ambition to be an actor. I acted in films by accident. I had the right look. I did about 12 movies, some good, some terrible. I prefer acting on stage because I have more control, it’s closer to what I do normally when I sing. Acting on film, you have to be so patient. It’s really a director’s medium, and you just have to wear the right clothes and say the right lines and then do it 50 times. My preference is to act in plays. I like that."
