Academy and Golden Globes award nominee John Hawkes has had an illustrious career in Hollywood, delivering notable films like Winter's Bone, The Sessions and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. Ahead of his 60th birthday tomorrow, the actor tells mid-day that each passing year has afforded him the luxury of picking projects that appease his heart, instead of those undertaken for monetary benefits alone.
"One doesn't have a lot of security [in this profession], and often has to work on [whichever project] comes his way. As time passed by, I didn't have to worry. My family [was financially secure], so, I could be more selective," says Hawkes, who was also seen in the lockdown-favourite film, Contagion, that will air on Sony Pix tomorrow.
