I do get stopped on the street, although rarely. And they always have something lovely to say.
Ben WhishawI wish that the arts were better supported, and you can't say that enough times, but I also believe that whatever happens, artists will keep going.
Ben WhishawI donโt think that actors are necessarily any more uncomfortable in their skin than anyone else. I suppose I feel more comfortable in my skin now, but youโre always playing a character, arenโt you? You tell different versions of yourself to different people and vice versa. Here, or in the photo shoot or wherever, itโs a representation of you. Itโs not you-you. Thatโs how you get through it.
