London, Jan 17 (Inditop.com) Hollywood star Ethan Hawke has been fascinated by vampires since he was 11 and finds them “weirdly sexual”.
The actor said he was so taken in with how beautiful a vampire character was in a film he saw as a child that he can see how young people find them compelling today, reports fametastic.co.uk.
“I know why I like vampires, it’s the same reason 11-year-olds like vampires. I remember I spent the night over at a friend’s house when I was about 11-years-old and ‘Nosferatu’ came on, with Isabelle Adjani. She was so beautiful,” he said.
“Other vampire movies have captured that completely too, like ‘Twilight’ and ‘Interview With The Vampire’ tried to. It’s this sensuality… something weirdly sexual about vampires,” he added.
Hawke, 39, also said he realised a long-held dream in his latest film “Daybreakers” by not only playing a vampire, but also getting to wear fangs – even when not on set.
“The worst thing was that I loved my fangs. Because they were fitted on to my teeth, and they were really cool to put them on for parties,” he said.
