The Crown star Dame Imelda Staunton says she'll never work with a certain Hollywood actor again after a bad experience on the set of a film they did together
Dame Imelda Staunton, who has worked with some of the biggest names in Hollywood and British stage and screen, has revealed she won't be working with Steven Seagal again.
The film features Seagal as a former CIA agent searching for his missing daughter, and according to Staunton, he was quite the diva on set. "Before I left England the producer said 'I just want to tell you Steven does not do reverse scenes' which means he doesn't do a scene unless the camera is on him," the 68-year-old actress recalled.
Dame Imelda Staunton has shared a humorous anecdote about the time she and her husband, Jim Carter of Downtown Abbey fame, attended the Emmys in Los Angeles. Imelda is set to take on a new role in the 1963 Broadway musical, Hello Dolly!, at the London Palladium, with Jim's support. Reflecting on their relationship, Imelda said: "I was 26 when I met Jim and he was 34, and a year later we were married. It is lovely working together when we can."
