Actor Andrew Lincoln, who is currently working on the horror show “The Walking Dead”, says if he wasn’t starring in the show he would like nothing more than getting his hands on a lightsaber in the sci-fi franchise “Star Wars”.
Lincoln, 44, says he and his co-star Dave Morrissey, who played lead antagonist the governor in seasons 3 and 4, were surprised they never got roles in “Harry Potter” as Britishers but they hope they will be in “Star Wars” in the future, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
“Dave Morrissey and I… we used to sort of joke that we were the only actors in British Equity that hadn’t been in the ‘Harry Potter’ franchise, so maybe I would have been wizarding about Hogwarts or hobbit-ing about Middle Earth. And I always fancied the idea of getting my hands around a lightsaber,” said Lincoln in an interview on “The Walking Dead” after show “Talking Dead”.
