Robert is no fool. Wherever you are, the English actor for 24 years invested in the role of romantic hero. It happens with Jacob Jankowski, the protagonist of the film by Francis Lawrence, based on the book by the Canadian Sara Gruen. In this drama, which takes place at a circus in the times of the Great Depression (1929-1939), Robert opposite two actors Oscar winners Reese Witherspoon (as an actor, Johnny & June) and Christoph Waltz (as supporting actor for Bastards Basterds). In this interview, the actor talks about his first love, the hatred that has for photographs and a certain discomfort caused by the hysteria of fans.
How was working with so many wild animals? His conception of the circus moved to Water for Elephants, with regard to the way animals are treated?
I know many circuses have a bad reputation because of this, but none of the animals we work with was the circus animals were all cinema. I know you must be very difficult because of the amount of injuries that the animals suffer. To teach horses tricks that they needed to know, it took months and months. If one got hurt, there was no substitute. Manage a circus is a precarious thing.
Was there a moment when you were scared of animals?
Once, with the zebras. They are impossible to tame. If they are tied, simply pull the rope to drop and if they can not drop, they are kicking. One could come loose and ran toward me. It was part of a scene, and I went out the front. Then everyone thought I was a pussy for leaving the front.
Francis Lawrence, the film’s director, said it was difficult to find a man of 23-24 years who were not too young for the role. And he told you it was a man – thoughtful, intelligent, caring, strong and confident. What makes a man a man?
Do not know. I always think that if you feel comfortable with who you are, then you’re good. I do not know whether anyone ever gets to be a man.
