Clive Owen Video Interview On ‘Shadow Dancer,’ Playing An MI-5 Agent

Clive Owen plays an MI-5 agent taking on the IRA in James Marsh’s Shadow Dancer based on the novel by Tom Bradby. “I wasn’t looking to work, I was finishing something. I was tired. I wanted to take a break,” Owen told Uinterview in an exclusive interview. “And because it was James Marsh, I read it and I loved it.”

Owen first made a name for himself in the UK TV series Chancer, in which he played the lead role as a conman. However, it wasn’t until Close My Eyes (1991), that he broke through in the U.K. While making a name for himself back at home, Owen didn’t gain fame in the U.S. until the release of Sin City in 2005.

In Shadow Dancer, Owen once again finds himself picking up the lead role as Mac, opposite an IRA agent played by Andrea Riseborough. “She’s a really fine actress so the chemistry kind of just happens,” he told Uinterview. “And when you’re working with someone who’s really good, you don’t need to work that hard.”
