Christopher Eccleston Rejected A Billy Elliot Role For Being ‘Offensive’

Fans who follow Christopher Eccleston’s work know that the venerable actor has never been afraid to speak his mind. Regarding one of his most high-profile roles, the actor said in December 2023 that he’d only return to “Doctor Who” if its producers got fired. “The series was a mess, and it wasn’t to do with me or [co-star] Billie [Piper]. It was to do with the people who were supposed to make it,” Eccleston said in a “Doctor Who” event panel in the UK.

Eccleston is also among the distinct few actors who were absolutely miserable filming the “Thor” movies. The actor — who played Malekith the Accursed in “Thor: The Dark World” — slammed the Marvel Cinematic Universe production for allegedly misleading him about the amount of time he would spend in the makeup chair to become the menacing leader of Dark Elves of Svartalfheim. “What they didn’t say was that it’d be seven hours of it, which was very dishonest of them,” Eccleston told Metro in 2018. “That was a miserable experience and a dreadful performance.”

Luckily, Eccleston said, he enjoyed his time working on the new season of the HBO crime drama “True Detective: Night Country,” opposite Jodie Foster. “I’d never have taken such a small part if it wasn’t for Jodie,” Eccleston told The Independent. “But all my scenes are with her, and she’s been a heroine of mine for many years.”
