‘The Unholy Trinity’ Star Pierce Brosnan on Getting to Play ‘Richer Characters,’ Director Richard Gray Eyes Calamity Jane and Stagecoach Mary Projects (Exclusive)

Pierce Brosnan is finally getting to play “richer characters,” he told Variety.
“I tell my sons: ‘Work gets work.’ I’ve been a working actor all my life and I’ve managed to create a body of work that, I think, is entertaining and substantial. There are some wonderful jewels within it.”
Richard Gray, his director on western “The Unholy Trinity,” agreed: “Pierce’s a ridiculously good actor. Lately, he’s been doing some really good stuff. He’s had a string of films that aren’t out yet and they will show him in many different lights. Over the next 10 years, he’ll be very acclaimed.”
Brosnan has been a “great supporter” of the movie, now set to close Zurich Film Festival, which sees him square off against Samuel L. Jackson.
“Working with Pierce and Sam was a dream come true. I grew up watching these guys: they are legends.
