Your support makes all the difference.Michael Caine has reflected on his film career in a new interview, revealing which role he regrets the most.
The British actor, 85, was speaking to Rolling Stone when he was asked if there were any films he wishes he hadn't turned down.
“I never made that kind of mistake,” he said. “I only made the ones in the opposite direction – what I didn’t say no to.”
He then went on to talk about one such film, the 1994 release On Deadly Ground that he starred in with Steven Seagal.
Caine said: “It wasn’t one of my dream experiences, to put it nicely. We were in Alaska. He was quite pleasant, but I never saw much of him; he never came out of his motorhome very much. He was one of the top whatever it is – jiu-jitsu, whatever it is they do. I’d never argue with him. I didn’t want him to throw me over.”
In the same interview, the actor maintained his support for Brexit, calling himself “a right-wing socialist or a left-wing conservative”.
He echoed an earlier line in which he said he'd "rather be a poor master than a rich servant".
Last year, Caine finally revealed the truth behind the final scene of Christopher Nolan blockbuster, Inception.
