Homeland actor Damien Lewis recently said that when he was in his 20s, he became concerned that if he didn’t break out of the theater in time, he worried that he...
'would be one of these slightly over-the-top, fruity actors who would have an illustrious career on stage, but wouldn't start getting any kind of film work until I was 50 and then start playing wizards.'
Well... The wizard of all wizards struck back! Kudos for Sir Ian McKellen for responding so wonderfully to this incredibly ignorant statement. Lewis is a good actor, and I loved him in season 1 of Homeland. Quickly though, after reading some of his interviews and seeing him on talk shows and award shows I began to think he came off as a bit of a douche. I was proved correct.
