Michael Sheen will donate his acting fees to good works

From now on, Michael Sheen will use all income from his acting career to fund charity.

As he explained to

, it was after much consideration that he decided to become a “non-profit actor”.

“Over the past few years, I've come to realize that I want to be one of those people who help others in the way so many have helped me.

I don't just want to be someone who takes the fruits of what others have done and then hoists the drawbridge, ”the

star explained

.

The big jump

“I am at a point in my life and in my career where I have a window of opportunity that will surely never be so good.

I am able to bring people together in a room, I can open doors.

I don't want to look back and tell myself that I could have done something with this forum.

That I could have done something with that money, ”said Michael Sheen.

Proof that these are not empty words, the actor has already saved the Homeless World Cup, a football championship held in Cardiff, Wales, his home region, in 2019. As the event risked being canceled due to lack of funding, Michael Sheen decided to sell the two houses he owned to save the furniture.

“It was scary and incredibly stressful.

And I will pay for it for a long time, ”he added.

But it's quite simple, as long as Michael Sheen manages to repay himself with his acting fees, he will continue to live like a "social enterprise"!
