He’s one of the most accomplished and respected actors in the industry, so when Russell Crowe was insulted during his recent interview with the BBC.
The “Gladiator” guy was asked by art critic Mark Lawson if he meant for his “Robin Hood” character to have a Northern Irish accent, to which he replied, “No I was going for an Italian…missed it? F**k me. You've got dead ears, mate -- seriously dead ears if you think there's an Irish accent."
Not getting the hint that he was annoying Crowe, Lawson asked Russell if he wanted to say his famous line from the “Gladiator” movie- “I’ll take my revenge in this life or the next,” in “Robin Hood.”
Crowe got up and left the interview. As he made his exit, Russell muttered, “I don’t get the Irish thing by the way. I don’t get it at all.”
