И вот что мне ещё понравилось о нём (об актёре, не короле):
He is said to be involved in a drama based about Richard III. "I was named Richard being born on the anniversary of Richard III’s demise at Bosworth; one of my father’s favourite novels is The Sunne in Splendour by Sharon Kay Penman, and I read this many years ago. In recent years it has led to a tentative interest and line of research into the rehabilitation of this story. As an actor, it’s a project I would love to achieve. I believe it is a great story, a socio-political thriller, a love story and a dynastic tragedy."[27] "There’s a darkness and mystery to Richard. I like the idea of someone who is not ambitious, but gets put on the fast track to the crown and almost finds himself there against his instincts.”[16] "I've got a sсript in development, well, it isn't mine, but it's about Richard III... there's too much to tell, let's do twenty episodes then we can tell all of the story... sort of a long-running "Wars of the Roses" kind of thing... I know a lot of people that are interested [in producing it], but there is no one that will step on the gas. Quite. Nearly there, nearly there." [28]
