“Like you buy a pair of shoes, and you think ‘Well, you know, maybe this is the last pair of shoes,’ so there’s that kind of thing.”
However, he also described that there’s a much darker side to his train of thought.
“There are days when I think, ‘How long is this going to go on?’ You know, I mean it must be quite nice to be dead,” he explained. “Do you know what I mean? You don’t have to do any of this stuff. It’s all very relaxed.”He told us that he never had to audition for other movies after his participation in “Love Actually” — he was simply offered roles.
“I’m eternally grateful to that movie and to [writer and director] Richard Curtis for putting me in that movie because it changed my life,” he explained. “It meant I never had to audition again […] — a fraction of actors ever get to that stage. I was very fortunate. And it has entered the language in a way that very few films do.”
After the screening, pal Hugh Jackman conducted a Q&A with Nighy in front of a celeb crowd that included Annie Wintour, Sienna Miller, David Harbour, Lily Allen, Jesse Williams, Josh Groban and Donna Karan.
