More quotes by Olivier Martinez
I really believe great actors, even with disease and age, can be great.
Olivier Martinez
But when you work with the director and the real person who is playing opposite you, it changes everything. You are almost in a working session. I was very comfortable, and that’s maybe what helped me to get the part.
Olivier Martinez
It's like all the signs were telling me that I shouldn't be a boxer, so I quit.
Olivier Martinez
My father was champion of North Africa and he beat the European champ. He was very good, a professional for 12 years. We're from a big family of boxers. My father has seven brothers.
Olivier Martinez
The first time Adrian saw me was on tape. But you should know that this never works - never in the history of movies has someone been cast from a video.
Olivier Martinez
And what's more I've got no need for anyone to tell me how to do it. I am not interested. You act how you want to and leave me alone to do my own thing.
Olivier Martinez
If you want to be happy, live discreetly. Does that make sense in English?
Olivier Martinez
An actor cannot say no, it’s against his job. If he wants the part he has to say yes. [But] it’s very bad for you to say you can do something and then not do it, so you have to manage to do it.
Olivier Martinez
I don't want to dig in the truth all of the time. Let me dream.
Olivier Martinez
People sometimes recognize me here, but they are very nice.
Olivier Martinez
I was born and raised in a suburb of Paris by a working-class family.
Olivier Martinez
Also, I have found that I really like to work in English. It's very strange because it's exactly the opposite of what I thought it would be like.
Olivier Martinez
It's nice to have some distance with your family. As long as you're closer to them by love.
Olivier Martinez
Before, I was so stupid. But, you know, when you have friends who died on the street, you say, okay, let's calm down. It's not the kind of energy I want to have in life. I want to go slower, and longer.
Olivier Martinez
I played a scene at the end of my first year, and that's how I was discovered.
Olivier Martinez
I wanted to become a champ - I was surrounded by champs in my family and in my neighborhood - and because of this stupid accident, I lost my opportunity.
Olivier Martinez
And I think it is the genius of actors to be able to escape whatever people are expecting of them. Otherwise you become like a factory worker.
Olivier Martinez
Everybody has some talents - we all have an art side and some talent - but you have some areas where you are better than others. My area is acting, I guess. I hope.
Olivier Martinez
I never analyze why I was with one woman instead of another.
Olivier Martinez
Imagination creates some big monsters.
Olivier Martinez
