Quote
1 I’m not delusional. I know I’m 5’7″ with slightly jug ears.
2 I like being able to hide behind the characters I play. I like to be an elusive and anonymous actor.
3 [on filming The Adventures of Tintin (2011): The Secret of the Unicorn] There were times when I didn’t think I could do another take, but it does help to know your way through the pain. I am not an old man by any means, but when you are in a [motion-capture] suit and helmet, it is not the most comfortable environment.
4 My biggest fear was that I would not be able to take the step from a child actor to an adult.I think it happened when I was able to play a soldier in Deathwatch (2002), set in the trenches of the first world war. The film didn’t quite work out – it was a very good movie, almost – but I think that got me up and running as a grown-up actor.
5 I have grown in confidence. And I do like to think I know the difference between confidence and arrogance.
6 I can appreciate the spotlight and pressure Heath was under. There is a feeling that, however supportive your family is, you are very much on your own in this business. I cannot pretend to know what was going on in his life. I can imagine how he felt. The film business is wonderful and I love it. But the flip side is that the expectations are very big . . . don’t get ill and don’t get depressed. – On Heath Ledger and the pressures of working too much.
7 Learning my skill was more important than getting a big pay cheque or running away from big robots.
8 I think it would have ruined my life. Can you imagine going back to school on Tuesday after winning an Oscar? You’d be nuts. It’s unsafe in this industry for a young person. You need to be protected and to keep good people around you – On missing out an Academy Award nomination for Billy Elliot (2000).
9 It makes no real difference because he was never there. Never having it (support from father), you don’t really miss it. (My mother) raised me and my sister herself. That was incredibly difficult.
10 It’s fortunate that I don’t have to live with being Ballet Boy any more. After this I’ll be called the nipple-circling dress-wearer or Rat Boy. – On his character Hallem Foe.
11 The young generation of actors are lazy. They don’t do any work. They turn up, and say their lines. I would rather get better at what I do.
12 Inner demons? Got none of them. I had teen angst for a while, but I think every teenager has the angst.
13 I know people think that if you’ve had success young, you’re going to blow it, but did you see “Batman” (The Dark Knight (2008)), did you see Christian Bale? He’s so on top of his game. I’ve worked with a Culkin – Rory Culkin, he’s a totally centered guy and he’s something ridiculous, like 15. Whatever happened with Macaulay Culkin I don’t know. The kid isn’t messed up. Something happens to the kid to make them messed up. People are not born messed up. Things happen. People should be more sensitive.
14 I can understand why everyone sees me as Billy Elliot; it was the first thing I did, so I was determined to take the most diverse route possible. It wasn’t to annoy people, but it seems to have upset so many people.
15 I think I became my own person dealing with my mother and sister. I never had a father figure so I never missed it. In fact, I thought it would be just another person to discipline me.
16 (why he picks roles based on directors) “I love looking down my résumé and seeing all those great people on it like David Gordon Green, and of course Peter Jackson and Stephen Daldry. When I look at it, I feel very proud for myself and the people around me who have managed to get me these roles.”
17 (on Hollywood) “I go because that’s where the work is, but I like, use and abuse. I fly in for the meetings, then fly out. That community is really small, so everybody knows each other. I kind of don’t like that. It’s not really a community I feel very welcome in.”
18 [assured fans he won’t suffer the same fate] “I wouldn’t do a Macaulay. I have sensible people around me. I see this industry as a risky business. The money thing has always been in my control. I have always had people looking after it for me. I do love buying things – stupid gadgets. I’ll say, ‘I want one of them.’ But I do the sensible thing, knuckle down, do some good work and keep a low profile.”
19 I hate maths. I can’t stand it. Circumferences of circles and stuff – it’s horrible.
20 You probably won’t see me dance in the movies again unless there’s a ‘Moulin Rouge 2’ or ‘Chicago Returns’.
21 I’m a hard-mouthed north-eastern lad. That’s me – the Eminem of Northeast England.
22 “(Billy Elliot (2000)) got that (R-rating) because of the swearing. But it wouldn’t be what it was without the swearing, kids need to swear”.
23 Ballet is very hard. It takes a lot of practice to get to a certain standard. You have to know a lot about the steps because when you take examinations they’ll ask you all about it.
24 (It’s true that) most British movies are emotional and I agree that most American actors look manufactured. It’s a shame.
25 [on winning awards, after he won the British Academy award] “It’s just an award although it is a big one. It is no good getting too big-headed. I’ve been very busy and I’m very tired. I’ve been given advice, you know on speech-making and things like that. It’s kind of weird that the other guys didn’t win because they’re such big guys.”
26 [on why he continued pursuing ballet despite the mockery] – “The other boys called me ‘poof’, ‘ballerina boy’, “Get on your tutu, Jamie.” It gave me more determination to prove it wasn’t just for girls. It was for boys as well.”

Mark Harmon’s net worth, biography, fact, career, awards and life story

Mark Harmon Net Worth: Mark Harmon is an American actor who has a net worth of $100 million. He is best known for his role in the CBS crime investigation series “NCIS.” He makes a salary of $525,000 per episode for “NCIS.” That works out to $12.6 million in a 24-episode season. With his producer credits and syndication royalties, Mark Harmon consistently earns more than $20 million every year. Early Life and Career Beginnings: Thomas Mark Harmon was born in Burbank, California, on September 2, 1951. His father, Tom Harmon, was a Heisman Trophy-winning football player and broadcaster, and his mother, Elyse Knox, was an actress, model, designer and artist. Harmon is the youngest of three children in the family; his oldest sisters are the late actress Kristin Nelson, and the actress and model Kelly Harmon. He attended high school at Harvard-Westlake School in Los Angeles. After graduation, he earned an associate degree at Pierce College, where he also played football. While there, he received offers to play football at several major college football programs, and ultimately chose to attend and play for UCLA over Oklahoma. Upon transferring to the University of California, Los Angeles, he played for the Bruins as their starting quarterback in 1972 and 1973. After college, Harmon considered pursuing a career in advertising or law, and began a career as a merchandising director, but ultimately settled on pursuing acting. Some of his first roles as an actor were on shows like “Ozzie’s Girls,” “Adam-12,” “Police Woman” and “Emergency!” in 1975. He also worked on two projects with producer/creator Jack Webb: “905-Wild,” a backdoor pilot for a series that did not sell), and “Sam” (1978) a short-lived series about an LAPD officer and his K-9 partner. Around this time, Harmon received an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Miniseries or a Movie for his role in the television film “Eleanor and Franklin: The White House Years” (1977). Television and Film Career: Harmon’s career continued to grow in the 1980s, and he achieved wider recognition when he landed a regular role in the prime time soap opera “Flamingo Road” in 1980. When it was cancelled after two seasons, he was then case as Dr. Robert Caldwell on “St. Elsewhere” in 1983. He appeared as Dr. Caldwell for nearly three seasons before he left the show in early 1986. One of his career high points came in January 1986, when he was named Sexiest Man Alive by People Magazine. He starred in the films “Stealing Home” and “The Presidio” in 1988. However, his feature films did not garner much recognition for him. Instead, his television projects were much more successful. During the late 1980s, he starred in numerous television films, including “Prince of Bel Air” (1986), “The Deliberate Stranger” (1986) and “After the Promise” (1987). From 1991 to 1993, Harmon returned to regular television roles with the NBC series “Reasonable Doubts,” starring as Chicago police detective Dickie Cobb for two seasons. He then starred in ABC series “Charlie Grace” for one season in 1995, and the ensemble medical show “Chicago Hope” from 1996 to 2000. Harmon joined the show “The West Wing” in May 2002, playing Secret Service agent Simon Donovan on a special four-story arc. This portrayal earned him his second Emmy Award nomination, exactly 25 years after he received his first nomination. Donaldn P. Bellisario, the creator of shows “JAG” and “NCIS,” was impressed by Harmon’s “West Wing” performance and hired him to portray the character of NCIS agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs. The character of Gibbs was introduced as a guest star on two episodes of “JAG” in April 2003, and then in September that year Harmon began starring as Gibbs on the CBS drama “NCIS.” As of 2020, “NCIS” is the second-longest-running scripted, non-animated US primetime television series that is still currently airing, and Harmon has starred as Agent Gibbs the entire time it has been on air. He also started working as a producer and executive producer for the show in 2008. For his work on “NCIS,” Harmon has received six People’s Choice Awards nominations, winning Favorite TV Crime Drama Actor in 2017. Other Career Activities: Harmon has starred in several stage productions in Los Angeles and Toronto. He performed in productions of “Wrestlers” and “The Wager” at the Cast Theatre in LA. In the late 1980s, he was also in the cast of the Canadian premiere of the production “Key Exchange.” Additionally, he has starred opposite his wife Pam Dawber in multiple productions of the play “Love Letters.” In 2014, Harmon founded the production company Wings Productions to work on and produce the show “NCIS: New Orleans.” In 2018 he also took on the role of producer for a new CBS series based on the best-selling “Prey” series of novels by author John Sandford. Personal Life: Harmon married actress Pam Dawber in March 21, 1987. Together they have two sons, Sean Thomas Harmon (born 1988) and Ty Christian Harmon (born 1992).
