Dec. 30, 2022 – ‘You young people, don’t give up, just keep in there, just keep fighting. Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid,’ he said in a video in 2020.
Hopkins started out in British theatre in 1960 and got his big break internationally in the 1968 historical drama The Lion In Winter opposite Peter O’Toole and Katharine Hepburn.
Hopkins was a bit of a hellraiser as a young man and has admitted to being ‘drunk’ and ‘hungover’ a lot of the time early in his career. However, in 1975, he committed to sobriety and has stayed the course.
In 1992, he won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance as Hannibal Lecter in 1991’s The Silence of The Lambs.
He’s been nominated four times for Oscars since then – for Remains Of the Day, released in 1993; for Nixon, released in 1995; for Amistad, released in 1997; and for 2019’s The Two Popes.
