If watching
Wimbledon
doesn't take
your fancy,
there'll be
something
here to love

part Buddhist, part bethnal green
Eddie Marsan has been a star
of big and small screen for 20
years, but you wouldn't know
it to chat with him
Having worked with some of cinema's biggest
directors, Eddie Marsan has a CV to die for.
But to spend time in his company, you'd
never guess. Self-deprecating to the point
where you want to put a reassuring arm
around him, you wouldn't know Eddie had
put in show-stealing turns in Ray Donovan,
Happy Go Lucky and Tyrannosaur. We grab
a few words with Deadpool 2's secret star...

Alongside Deadpool 2,
Eddie has four more films
due for release in 2018:
Mowgli, White Boy Rick,
Backseat and Feedback.

YOU ONCE SAID, 'HAVE AN EXTRAORDINARY
CAREER, BUT AN ORDINARY LIFE...'
Yes! It was the best advice I ever got. Do
your work, do it well and go home. I have
the mortgage, the kids and I live a normal
life. I take refuge in that because I'm not
very charismatic.
STOP THAT. YOU'RE MORE IN DEMAND NOW
THAN EVER BEFORE!
Things are going really well and it's very nice.
People know I won't let them down.
YOU'RE OLD FRIENDS WITH COMEDIAN
MICKY FLANAGAN, RIGHT?
He is a genius, so intelligent. He represents
the best of the working class. Sadly, there are
loads of people who represent the worst...

WORDS: JAMES GILL, IMAGE: GETTY IMAGES

IS IT A CONCERN SO FEW WORKING CLASS
ACTORS ARE COMING THROUGH?
You have to have a certain amount of people
from a lower background. I'd also love to see a
movie made in London, set in the 1990s, from
an immigrant's perspective. Something from
the Bengali community would be fascinating.
NOW, YOU AND I HAVE TALKED ABOUT
BUDDHISM BEFORE...
The philosophy and theology appeals to me.
I meditate alone or read books on my own,
but I'd love to be one of those cool actors
who claim to be a Buddhist but aren't. I have
a bit of Buddhist and a bit of Bethnal Green.

Deadpool 2 is in cinemas now
