The less lines, the better. I am the silent film actor, but not in a slapstick sort of way. Film is an image-based medium, so whatever you can say without the words is far more provocative and punctuating. If the lines are not funny or if they don’t advance the story, sometimes it’s hard. I hate talk in movies. Callum Keith Rennie Read Quote
I’m so excited about ‘Shattered;’ it’s something I’ve really enjoyed working in, and it’s very different from anything I’ve done before. I’ve always been a character actor and done a lot of support work. I’ve never really been the lead actor, so I’ll try and use what I’ve learned along the way from the other projects.

It was funny on ’24’ because I’m a Scots-Canadian, and I was working with the great Scottish actor Tony Curran, and we were both playing Russian gangsters. Callum Keith Rennie Read Quote
I’ve never played Scots or got the chance to do my Scottish accent. I’m always trying it out in auditions, but they always say no. I’d love to act in a Scottish accent for once. Callum Keith Rennie Read Quote
