Exclusive 1:1 Interview: The Boxtrolls Star Sir Ben Kingsley!

It would not be an overstatement that Sir Ben Kingsley is one of the greatest actors working today. The Academy Award winning thespian has given legendary performances in such work as GANDHI, SCHINDLER’S LIST and SEXY BEAST to name a few. He even caused quite a stir with his performance in IRON MAN 3. This shockingly talented fellow works constantly and always surprises audiences with many of his choices.

Recently I sat down with Sir Ben to talk about his latest, the terrific THE BOXTROLLS. As the film’s antagonist, I asked him how this baddie compares to some of the others he has played. He gave the question a very serious answer, and reminded this interviewer why he is always able to give such amazing performances. You can check him out this Thursday when THE BOXTROLLS opens at a theatre near you.
