Feeling a bit horse
Actors need many skills. Sure, if I’m ever in a big budget production, they can CGI my face onto a stuntman who does all of the action stuff for me, but where’s the fun in that?
Also, as I am not currently in any big budget productions, it helps to make myself as versatile as possible.
If the casting director needs a super handsome actor who can ride, that’s me. Or at least it will be when I get good at it.
Also coming up, I’ll be learning to fence - fabulous for period pieces, drive a tank, and tame lions.
The guy with the skills gets the jobs.
