Quite low down in the list is “How much am I going to be paid?”… my main feeling about money is that I don`t want to feel as though I`m being taken advantage of… The other actors they asked to play Gandalf wouldn`t go to New Zealand on that money for that length of time. I thought it would be a bit of an adventure… I`m an eccentric actor, and there`s a lot of us around.
