Olly Murs wants to act
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 29 May 2013
Olly Murs had to do some acting in the video for his new single ‘Dear Darlin’, and now he’s caught the bug, he has told Daybreak. That’s the acting bug, not some horrible disease.
He explains: “In this video I’m actually acting! I’ve been doing some angry shots … It’s nice to show a different side of my character. I think that’s what it is [to be] an artist, to show different sides of your personality, and I think my fans have been wanting to see that for a while”.
Though he added: “If I was going to do acting [more seriously], I wouldn’t want … who I am and what I’m doing [to mean I just] I get a job straight away. I’d want to really go to stage school and learn more about it. I think it’s important to walk into a casting or walk into a room with other actors and be able to say that I’ve learnt to do this job, I haven’t just walked into it. I think that’s important because it’s not as easy as people make out, it’s tough”.
