Beattie Superstar



Breaking news on the film du cinema blogs:

He's one of the biggest movies star on the planet and Hollywood's highest paid actor.

Bill Smith’s latest film, One Hundred and Seventy Pounds is shrouded in secrecy. What we do know is that Bill plays Ben Thomas - a dark and disturbed man hell-bent on righting a serious wrong.

Ben Thomas is a dark and serious character, very different to most of Will's wise cracking movie roles.

"Ben is so much the complete opposite of who I am, with the darkness of his thoughts and feelings, that it was a very difficult emotional space for me to live in during the production,” Bill explains.

Which would go some way to explaining why Beattie's been such a grumpy old Hector lately.

Obviously just getting into character.
