A still from Danny Collins
Veteran Hollywood actor Al Pacino, who is all set for his film Danny Collins, says he once wrote a fan letter for his co-star Christopher Plummer when he saw him on stage.
Mr Plummer, who plays Al Pacino's manager in the film, shared a great rapport on and off the sets with the 75-year-old actor.
"Chris was like an idol of mine, I was very influenced by him. I actually wrote him a fan letter when I saw him on stage once. He really was my idol, like no one ever has been my idol. So I had a real attraction to him and we got along very well during the movie, we became friends and stuff," he said in a statement.
Mr Pacino is playing an ageing rockstar who decides to change the course of his life after receiving a long-undelivered letter from the late singer John Lennon. Apart from Pacino, the film, directed by Dan Fogelman, also stars Annette Bening, Jennifer Garner, Bobby Cannavale and Christopher Plummer.
The film is set to release in India on May 15.
