More quotes by Rowan Atkinson
I'm not looking for anything other than an interesting role to play.
Rowan Atkinson
I would never be a television presenter. It's not something I could ever do.
Rowan Atkinson
It's the difficulty we had with Mr. Bean, actually, when it went from TV to film. You certainly discover that you need to explain more about a character.
Rowan Atkinson
Get that right, then- if you get the quality right, then the marketability or whatever your ability to sell videos or your ability to earn money or whatever, will follow naturally. But try to be creatively lead rather than market lead. And that's important to me.
Rowan Atkinson
The Scarlet Pimpernel is the most over-rated human being since Judas Iscariot won the A.D.31 'Best Disciple' competition.
Rowan Atkinson
I consider myself more of a visual comedian than a physical one.
Rowan Atkinson
Mr. Bean is at his best when he is not using words, but I am equally at home in both verbal and nonverbal expression.
Rowan Atkinson
I suddenly think the job of acting is a difficult one. It's not as flip, irrelevant and shallow a calling as I thought it was in the Eighties.
Rowan Atkinson
I have always regarded Mr. Bean as a timeless, ageless character, and I would rather he be remembered as a character mostly in his 30s and 40s.
Rowan Atkinson
I want to express myself in a different way. I have a performing inclination.
Rowan Atkinson
Look, if I'd wanted a lecture on the rights of man, I'd have gone to bed with Martin Luther.
Rowan Atkinson
The character [Maigret] is bound to change and develop, and I wouldn't like to claim that we are perfectly formed straight out of the box. I think it's what I'd call an 'optimistic start'. As you know, for me, no glass is anything other than half empty, so I apologise for my reticence in terms of promoting this programme.
Rowan Atkinson
I think you're bound to get a sense of any character that you play. It's not something you often do in comedy.
Rowan Atkinson
If you're a serious actor, it's when you know you're going to die tomorrow that you really start to feel it.
Rowan Atkinson
I'm not a collector. I don't like the toy cupboard syndrome that causes so many good cars to evaporate.
Rowan Atkinson
The clear problem of the outlawing of insult is that too many things can be interpreted as such. Criticism, ridicule, sarcasm, merely stating an alternative point of view to the orthodoxy, can be interpreted as insult.
Rowan Atkinson
I tend to play rather odd men. People that are slightly odd or eccentric, or have a more particular attitude to life.
Rowan Atkinson
Marketing is what gets you noticed, and that side of it something - this side of it, if you like, doing interviews - is the side of it that I least enjoy, and yet is 50% of the project.
Rowan Atkinson
I think in many ways Johnny English is a more believable character.
Rowan Atkinson
The Maigret stories are all very different in terms of the content and the way that the stories are told. They're not what I would call formulaic.
Rowan Atkinson
