“I had such a good time in ‘Shazam,’ playing a Roman goddess,” Mirren told senior entertainment writer Angelique Jackson duringThroughout her career, Mirren has taken on roles that range from three different British queens to her upcoming turn as Golda Meir, the former prime minster of Israel. She’s also a featured player in the “Fast & Furious” franchise, as the formidable Magdalene Shaw.
“I love the genre work,” Mirren explained. “I love working with those incredible artists of stunts and of special effects. … It’s just great to watch them work and to be a part of their work, and I love to mix it up. I love to go from those big-budget extraordinary technical films to a film that’s much more about relationships and conversations rather than bangs.”
“It’s incredibly meaningful; it completely took me by surprise,” Mirren said. “I suppose everyone who gets it says that, but it is true. And, of course, to get it from my fellow actors is amazing, and I have to say specifically my fellow actors in America.” “Thanks to ‘The Crown,’ we’ve seen many great performances of the Queen, and I love seeing different actresses do their portrait of Her Majesty,” Mirren said. “I had the fortune of being the first one to do that and it meant a huge amount to me at the time, and I think it will ’til the day I die.”
