I haven’t seen it yet, but it’s Kevin, from working on it, I think Kevin’s going to do a great job on it. Ronan: Yeah, as you can tell from the massive smile on my face, I’m very excited about How I Live Now. Talk a little bit about that and working with Kevin because I’m a huge fan of his work as well. I was at AFM last September, October, whatever, and I saw a little bit of footage from How I Live Now, which I guess hasn’t even been released yet. They’ve all been really, really great men to work with, and a couple of women as well. I don’t know whether they all share one similar trait, I mean I guess they all appreciate actors and understand them, but most of these guys… I’ve gotten on with every director that I’ve worked with and have stayed in touch with them all. To have that kind of relationship with a director is so special and it’s so important when you’re making a film.
Ronan: Something that I always take away from a director if this has been the case and if this has happened, and it has happened with pretty much everyone you’ve mentioned there, when an actor and a director really have a connection and they really develop a strong relationship with each other and the kind of understanding where you can almost tell each other something through a look, you know, something like that. he didn’t really do that much for a little while, and then suddenly he comes back and he gives this brilliant performance in a fantastic show that’s gone on for like four years or whatever it’s been, three years, and it’s been wonderful. But, you see actors like Alec Baldwin and amazing Bryan Cranston and people like that who are just fantastic and you know I didn’t really see Bryan in much after Malcolm he wasn’t. At the same time, I’d love to do an episode of Breaking Bad, something like that. I don’t know if I would want to spend seven years at my age playing one character. I am amazed at how good television is now and how high the quality is in television.

you see these characters on TV and you’re like, "I could see myself playing that person for five years." Or is it "no"? Is there the possibility that you’re like. You’re clearly working with some amazing directors and working on some phenomenal projects. This will lead me into a sidebar question, which I wasn’t going to ask, but fuck it. It’s pretty… I found that once you turn it on, it gets into your system.Īnd that’s the thing about great TV and there is a lot of it right now. And then I came back and we watched the last one. Watch it on Netflix." So they said, "Okay." They asked me what it was I about I said, It’s about this guy who’s a chemistry teacher, makes crystal meth, give it a look." Within a week and a half, they had gone through all four seasons.
While I was away, they didn’t know what to do with themselves, so I said, "Why don’t you watch Breaking Bad. And I told my mom and dad about it recently. I think I got through Season 1 and half of Season 2. And then I went away from it just because I was working. Somebody told me about it and I started watching it.

Here's the full video interview followed by a transcript. As I walked in the room, she immediately freaked out over my Breaking Bad t-shirt and after a few minutes of talking off camera about the show I eventually pushed record, and that's how the interview started. As The Ghost works, he begins to uncover clues suggesting his predecessor may have stumbled on a dark secret linking Lang to the CIAand that somehow this information is hidden in the manuscript he left behind.Finally, you may wonder why we spent so much time talking about Breaking Bad. The controversy brings reporters and protesters swarming to the island mansion where Lang is staying with his wife, Ruth ( Olivia Williams), and his personal assistant (and mistress), Ameila ( Kim Cattrall). But the day after he arrives, a former British cabinet minister accuses Lang of authorizing the illegal seizure of suspected terrorists and handing them over for torture by the CIAa war crime. The Ghost flies out to work on the project, in the middle of winter, to an oceanfront house on an island off the U.S. But the project seems doomed from the start-not least because his predecessor on the project, Lang's long-term aide, died in a suspicious accident. When a successful British ghostwriter, The Ghost ( Ewan McGregor), agrees to complete the memoirs of former British Prime Minister Adam Lang (Brosnan), his agent assures him it's the opportunity of a lifetime.
