actress Géraldine James
I have worked with some great actors, many of whom have become good friends. Charles Dance said to someone recently, ‘The reason Gerald and I are such good friends is because we never fancied each other’. When you work together that long (we spent six months in India filming Jewel and then another year in Manchester) you find friendship on a different level.http://www.thelondonmagazine.co.uk/people-places/interviews/geraldine-james.html

L'acteur a donc passé une soirée tranquille, mercredi dans la Cité du Doudou. Seul, il a mangé un bout à la brasserie Oscar. Une brasserie pratiquement déserte ce soir-là. Charles Dance a pu savourer son plat calmement, en lisant un livre. "Je ne l'ai pas reconnu tout de suite lorsqu'il est rentré, parce qu'il avait un gros manteau et un bonnet", nous confie Jérôme, serveur à la brasserie Oscar. "J'ai d'abord eu l'impression de l'avoir déjà vu quelque part avant de vraiment le reconnaître. J'avais quand même vérifié sur Internet."
Le serveur a laissé l'acteur manger tranquillement. Au moment de l'addition, il a eu l'occasion d'échanger quelques mots. "Il a beaucoup apprécié le poisson, un bar de ligne, qui n'est pas un poisson d'élevage. Il a ensuite accepté de prendre quelques photos avec nous. Il était très gentil et élégant à la fois, il dégageait beaucoup de charisme."
Charles Dance participe en ce moment en Belgique au tournage de Book of Vision. Produit par Terence Malik et réalisé par Carlo Hintermann, le film s'intéresse à la relation entre un médecin et son patient.

[Pop Bitch] Actors have long had to deal with amorous co-stars chancing their arm on stage in the name of art, but imaginative tales of vigilante justice rarely come this delicious.
One theatre star who had to share a scripted kiss in a play with Charles Dance became very tired of his persistent habit of slipping her the tongue, so she hit upon a rather creative solution.
One night she gave her boyfriend a blowjob backstage before the curtain went up, and deliberately didn’t rinse her mouth out before stepping on stage.

Charles Dance on narrating Savage Kingdom, GOT and why he hates the age of the selfie
His latest fame surge follows a career built upon villainous characters, ranging from commanders in 2014’s The Imitation Game to the comical antagonist in 1993’s Last Action Hero opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger. These appearances however have been superseded by the actor’s reign across five seasons of HBO’s fantasy drama, which has left Dance adjusting to the modern token of celebrity adulation. ’Because of the show’s success and the power of television, it’s much more powerful than film, it doesn’t matter where I go whether it’s here, Spain or Italy, there’s bound to be people who are fans of Game Of Thrones. ‘It’s the age of the selfies so out comes the mobile phone: “Can I have a picture?” Most of the time, yes, and then there are times when I think, “Oh fuck it no, this is so boring.” ‘They pay the wages though, so it’s better to be charming,’ Charles adds.
Despite loathing the selfie, he’s mostly happy to oblige to fan requests – as long as he isn’t in the supermarket. ‘It’s incredibly boring and so predictable. It really is. That’s what people do now [though], so as long as I’m in the right mood. If I’m standing in the checkout at Waitrose and somebody wants a bloody selfie, I’ll politely tell them to fuck off. ‘There are times when you get people who are really offended if you say no, as if it’s obligatory. “What do you mean no, I’m your greatest fan!” Well, that’s very kind of you, I appreciate that, but I’d rather you didn’t take a selfie!’ While Dance’s gravelly, commanding voice has made him a classic on-screen villain for decades, his pipes may have found their true calling narrating wildlife horrors on Savage Kingdom.
The series, currently in its second run as Savage Kingdom: Uprising, sees him bring the cruel hierarchy of the natural world to life, offering a slightly more dramatic spin in comparison to David Attenborough’s work. ‘They’re fantastic, they’re not your ordinary wildlife shows,’ Charles says. ‘It’s called Savage Kingdom because it doesn’t turn away from the brutality of animals having to survive. There’s some pretty gruesome things in this series, I can tell you. ‘The guys who shoot these films, they go out in the bush for two or three weeks and they find a leopard or a pride of lions, and they follow them and sleep out in their land cruisers overnight. They just manage to capture some extraordinary footage. ‘We’ve given all these animal characters names – the way they’re done, it adds a kind of drama. They’re not just straight documentaries, they introduce you to these animal characters and you get to know them. It shows you what animals have to do to survive.’

Fathers and Sons by Brian Friel, after the novel by Ivan Turgenev, with an all-star cast including Charles Dance (Game of Thrones) and George Blagden (Versailles). http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/proginfo/2017/45/drama-on-3-fathers-and-sons
Very much made with mature audiences in mind, this gentle-paced adaptation of N.J. Crisp's 1996 play builds steadily toward an irresistibly moving finale which does for Hurt what Furious 6 did for Paul Walker. The welcome (albeit intermittent) presence of Charles Dance (Game of Thrones) — as an enigmatic figure who could perhaps be a super-suave incarnation of the Grim Reaper — will further help theatrical distribution prospects for what is fundamentally a small-screen enterprise.
..................
That Good Night, however, feels every inch a valedictory project for the star, filmed after his own terminal diagnosis in 2015. But while on one level it very much revolves around Hurt — who, with more than 100 feature appearances under his belt, could play this kind of thing in his sleep — it clicks into a noticeably higher gear in the three dialogue sequences where he gets to politely square off with Dance's nameless character (identified as The Visitor in closing credits.)
................
That Good Night is by no means "crap," but in the hands of the journeyman Eric Styles — whose feature credits stretch back to 2000's woeful Noel Coward adaptation Relative Values — it passes muster strictly as a showcase for Hurt and Dance. Lathered with super-conventional music from composer Guy Farley, it's shot in bland, pointless widescreen by cinematographer Richard Stoddard, whose labors will delight the Portuguese tourist authorities, if no one else.

The relaxed, no fuss, no trouble atmosphere that makes Castle Street such a welcoming and relaxed place means it’s somewhere celebrities can go and not get any hassle. Charles Dance – the actor who plays sinister Tywin Lannister in Game of Thrones – was spotted in McGuffie’s reading his morning paper.

Afterwards, a muscly, white T-shirted Freddie sprawls on a stool for our interview before grabbing his suitcase to fly off to France that night to direct a short film that he has written, starring James Norton, Charles Dance and Jessica Findlay Brown - fulfilling a long-held ambition to make films as well as star in them.
