I know of this guy named Sam Worthington. I know that I hadn’t heard of him before Avatar. I know some girls that are going crazy for him but I’m not sure why. Avatar sure brought him to the forefront and now everyone can’t stop talking about him. He is the April 2010 (that hits news stands on March 23rd) cover boy for Details magazine. Sam who hits the theaters in Clash Of The Titans in the beginning of April sat down with the magazine and talked about why he comes across as an idiot and fame. Here are the highlights:
On why he comes across like an idiot: “I’m still a very boisterous young man. And I swear a bit more than I should. So I’m learning to temper it, you know?”
On liking to work: “I hate downtime. This is the first time I’ve had time off. I hate it.”
On his childhood: “I’m not a great fan of people who say they put a sheet up in the backyard when they were 7 and entertained all the neighbors. When I was 7, I thought I was a f-cking fire truck. Growing up, you tended to just go through school to get out… then figure out what you want to do in this big ball of mud.”
James Cameron on Worthington: “It’s hard to find a guy who works for women and for men,” Cameron says. “With a lot of actors, women love them, but they don’t inspire men. I needed someone who could lead men into battle.” Worthington, he says, “was the one who went full Shakespeare.” They met, they clicked. “He impressed me as a tough guy. He had a flintiness about him.”
On why Sam doesn‘t like the word “art”: “Artistry has a kind of weird connotation,” he says, “because you can sound like you’re going straight up your f-cking ass if you say that.”
On living in hotels: “I like room service. They put a chocolate on my pillow. It’s kinda cool.”
On where he wants his career to go: “Most people could say, ‘I want to be on magazine covers. I want to have enough money to buy a house. If it was tangible hopefully I wouldn’t be doing it, to be honest.”
On fame: “If you start walking around in a red chinchilla, thinking you’re better than everybody,” Worthington says, “you’re going to look like a dickhead.”
On being a diva (maybe): “Well, I demand a lot,” he says, then backtracks, not wanting to position himself as some kind of diva. “I demand excellence in myself. I’m up front and quite outspoken, but I’ll give you everything.”
