I sincerely hope that his British Fans - like myself get to see him on our TV. He is the most talented actor we have today. We need a good director, with an excellent script with a rousing story with plenty of action and he will do the rest without a doubt. Gracious me if Leonardo DiCaprio can do it Hugh can do so much better. I am waiting to see The Fountain which is in the UK now but only at selected cinemas. His acting in this film has been highly praised but I think the director has gone over board by all accounts and this has clouded the audience seeing the vunerable emotional and heartbreak that is so clearly shown.
