Michael Sheen enjoyed doing Manics video

Michael Sheen says he jumped at the chance to star in the Manic Street Preachers’ new music video.

In the video for (Its Not War) Just The End Of Love, he plays a Russian chess legend Garry Kasparov type character opposite actress Anna Friel.

Michael explained he was friends with the band’s lead singer, saying: “We’re all from the same place in South Wales and I’ve known James Dean Bradfield for a little while.”

Speaking in LA as he promoted the release of children’s movie Tinker Bell And The Great Fairy Rescue onto DVD in the States, Michael confessed he hadn’t expected to be asked to work with the band.

“Why they wanted me to do it I have no idea!” he laughed.

He added: “The reason why I wanted to do it was because I’m a big fan of theirs and it was great to be a part of it.”

If you have not seen this video yet – you must! It is a fabulous song and the video is EPIC!

Commiserations to Michael Sheen for Emmy disappointment

Most of you will already know by now, but unfortunately Michael Sheen did not win his nominated category of Lead Actor in a miniseries, at the Primetime Emmy’s last night.

I think I can say for us all that we are bitterly disappointed but he was in a category with some extremely talented and strong candidates. I think most people would struggle to beat the winner, Al Pacino, in an awards race.   This year was just not his time.
