Edward Sonnenblick opens up on his role in 'RRR'

ndian movies has witnessed quite a downward graph when it comes to writing and casting white actors in films. More often than not, the actors cast in respective roles are never up to the mark and the portrayal of white characters has also been entirely questionable.

But amidst all that, there are actors like Edward Sonnenblick, who is the go-to actor when it comes to casting a white actor for a white role. And unlike the many, Sonnenblick has always impressed. He's played villain roles and worked with top industry names like Hansal Mehta, Kangana Ranaut, Vikramaditya Motwane, and most recently SS Rajamouli in RRR.

And recently in an interview, he went on to open up about his character in the magum opus as he said that it is great to be in such an epic historical film. He added that it has indeed been tough at times with multiple schedule delays, the pandemic, saying no to other projects because of RRR and many such things. But all those challenges seem worth it and very small now.

When asked where he would like to take things from here, the American who's made his home in Mumbai says, "I am hungry to sink my teeth into more complex characters and it’s time to get into a bigger variety of roles. I’ve received so much appreciation since I got nominated for the best villain for my first ever TV series, 'Jhansi ki Rani', 13 years ago. But I have so much more to offer as an actor and I look forward to sharing it with audiences."

We definitely would love to see Sonnenblick in a more diverse and interesting role soon, isn't it?
