Carey Mulligan dreams about playing Juliet
September 22nd, 2010 - 3:07 pm ICT by IANSLondon, Sep 22 (IANS) Actress Carey Mulligan has revealed that she very keen to play Juliet in William Shakespeare’s play “Romeo and Juliet” on Broadway.
The 25-year-old actress said she hopes to hit the stage as Juliet in a new production next year.
“I’ve been talking to someone about ‘Romeo & Juliet’ and I’d never sort of gone after it and tried to make that happen. I’ve never done Shakespeare, so that really scares me. But it’s exciting,” contactmusic.com quoted her as saying.
“I won’t be able to play Juliet in a couple of years and if I’m ever gonna do it I should do it now,” she added.
The “Education” star insists she’ll always return to the stage in between movies because she’s more comfortable on stage.
She said: “I love doing film, but I do think I’m more comfortable on stage because the film was never the dream.”
