LONDON (AP) – Charlie Hunnam says as soon as he learned Guy Ritchie was making a King Arthur movie, he knew he wanted to be a part of it. The problem: Guy Ritchie didn’t agree.
The solution turned out to be marijuana – talking about it, not indulging in it.
To change Richie’s mind, Hunnam booked a trip to London on a week off from filming “Sons of Anarchy” and landed a meeting with the director. They ended up talking about medical marijuana for two hours.
Says Hunnam: “What he wanted to see was what I was about and whether we saw life in the same way.”
“King Arthur: Legend of the Sword” opens in the UK on 19 May and in the United States on 12 May.
