Not that I know of. The man is a legend. Then again, he is from the city I was born and raised in so I may be biased.

He does have a reputation for dying in almost everything he's in though (although he isn't the most killed actor in Hollywood, that record belongs to John Hurt, I think).

And the chemistry with harper is hilarious. "Who are we supposed to kill in Yorkshire?" "Englishmen I suppose". "So not all bad then".

He uses his own accent in everything. That's why he was never Bond, he refused to drop the accent.

It's a ru ning joke, he's a Greek with a Sheffield accent, a Gondorian with a Yorkshire accent, an American with a Yorkshire accent, Lord of Winter fell with a Yorkshire accent...

No. He was fired because he was a dick. A dick, a dumbass, and an arrogant bigot. Just like Charlie Kirk has a job because he is an arrogant bigot, a dumbass, and a dick.

Only he was making more money than Charlie will probably see in a lifetime. That’s why it matters—that he was a mover and shaker, but he was ascared of people who differed from him.

So he had a tall pedestal to fall from, whereas Charlie’s standing on a toadstool, and nobody gives a shit.

I read he determined the accent for the North Kingdoms in GoT by the way he talked.
