Ewan McGregor admits he was terrified before taking on his Halston role. 😱 '...two weeks before I started Halston, I was sh***ing bricks...'
Ewan McGregor reveals that he was terrified to play the real-life fashion designer who inspired the Halston mini-series. Adapted from the book Simply Halston by Steven Gaines, the 5-part mini-series aired on Netflix in May of 2021. Halston earned mostly positive reviews from audiences and critics, with many praising McGregor's performance as the titular fashion icon.
Halston follows McGregor's titular character as he attempts to become one of the leading names in women's fashion in the 1970s. The show, like the book upon which it is based, depicts a world filled with colorful characters and excess, with Halston's road to the top mired by shifting alliances, complex romantic relationships, and unrestrained ambition.
“I never find the acting of anything hard. I have just been doing it a long time, and I trust myself. Before I was even doing it, I was sort of arrogantly self-assured. I’m not like that about lots of things in my life. That said, if you were to speak to Mary, two weeks before I started Halston, I was sh***ing bricks..."
Even though he's starred in the likes of Trainspotting, Moulin Rouge, and a host of Star Wars movies, it's clear that McGregor still isn't immune to the pressure that comes with certain roles. While it would seem that the actor isn't one to get nervous about most of his roles, something about Halston was evidently different. McGregor doesn't elaborate on what specifically made the role so intimidating, but it's possible that Halston being a real person played a part.
Although McGregor may have felt intimated by Halston, most would seem to agree that his performance was one of the main highlights of the series. Some have criticized Halston for various creative choices made in the writing process but, in terms of working with the material he was given, McGregor delivered in troves.
