More quotes by Charlie Hunnam
I mean I’m 16 and 17 years wiser now. So if I could do it when I was 18 with a guy, I can certainly do it at 33 with a lady.
Charlie Hunnam
You have to keep people engaged until you get them through the next commercial. I'm not complaining about working in TV, at all, but just as an artistic reaction, I find myself being so drawn to moments of silence where things are allowed to breathe.
Charlie Hunnam
I think when you live your destiny, you allow yourself to get in touch with your inner essence. What's difficult in life is the economic and social requirements that distract us from bringing forth our true passion.
Charlie Hunnam
Television is all about sound. You'll never get a moment of silence unless there's something really extraordinary going on, on screen, visually. They never let a moment of silence pass without being filled in television because it's a very sound-driven medium.
Charlie Hunnam
Right before I got 'Sons of Anarchy,' I actually quit acting for 18 months and didnt read a single script, and I wrote a film. I felt like I needed to do something that I had control over, as an artist, and also just do something where I felt like I had some control over my life, as just a human, out in the world.
Charlie Hunnam
I'm happy being an actor, it's what I have always wanted to do. I'm just lucky I got to do it so early.
Charlie Hunnam
I got expelled from high school, and then did my exams from home. I decided, through that experience, that I was going to expediate my plan and didn't go to university. Instead, I went to a community college and studied the theory and history of film with the idea that I wanted to write and direct.
Charlie Hunnam
The landscape of cinema is not original. Not to say there aren't great movies being made, but it's much easier for studios to make movies that have built-in audiences. So it's all remakes, adaptations, a lot of remakes of adaptations.
Charlie Hunnam
The truth of the matter is the real industry is in LA and the cream of the talent is there.
Charlie Hunnam
My philosophy about the whole thing is that awards are like gifts: it's lovely to receive them, and it is very bad form to covet them.
Charlie Hunnam
It's generally more fun playing the villain
Charlie Hunnam
I obviously am cognizant of the fact that being handsome gives me greater breadth of opportunity. I'd hope that what I bring to the table far surpasses just being handsome.
Charlie Hunnam
I get invited to literally every single movie premiere that's going on.
Charlie Hunnam
And I just want to work with good directors and good people.
Charlie Hunnam
Everybody, at some point in their life, has fallen down and not felt like getting back up, but you have to, no matter how difficult it is.
Charlie Hunnam
I'm reading scripts, desperately wanting to work. I've set a couple of things up for next year
Charlie Hunnam
I'm usually the guy who knocks everyone out in order to get the girl.
Charlie Hunnam
I was playing pretty boys and these angelic roles like Nicholas Nickleby and all that stuff. And I was like, 'What am I doing? This isn't who I am, as a man or an artist.' I had to overcome people's belief that I was too pretty to be a badass.
Charlie Hunnam
I realise few people get to live the life they always wanted, but I'm so neurotic, I don't really think about it. I'm too busy thinking, 'I hope I don't screw up my next scene.
Charlie Hunnam
No, I do a bunch of things to entertain myself. I paint, I make music, I take photographs.
