Hungarian actors discuss career paths and potential film sequels
In recent cultural discussions, Hungarian actors Gábor Csőre and Bence Szalay have shared insights into their careers and potential future projects.
Gábor Csőre, a Jászai Mari Prize-winning actor, appeared on the Szín-Vallás podcast. During the interview, he discussed his professional journey, noting that acting became a compulsory path after he was not accepted into political science studies. He reflected on how playing various roles, such as Arany János’s Toldi, has contributed to his personal and intellectual growth. Csőre also touched upon his spiritual life and the connection between his craft and his faith.
Meanwhile, actor Bence Szalay expressed interest in revisiting his well-known role in the film 'A Viszkis'. Rather than focusing on the criminal past of the legendary bank robber Attila Ambrus, Szalay proposed a sequel centered on Ambrus’s life after prison and his efforts to rebuild a new existence. Szalay noted that while he is a fan of Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves, the core interest lies in the human transformation following incarceration.
