Michael Sheen 'absolutely' wouldn't want to be a member of the royal family

Michael Sheen did a lot of research into the royal family while preparing to play Prince Andrew in "A Very Royal Scandal," which led him to say he would never want to be a member of the family.

While preparing for the role, Sheen did extensive research in order to get into the mindset of a royal, which ultimately led him to the conclusion that he "absolutely" would never want to be a member of the royal family. "The reality seems to be that there are far more restrictions than there are freedoms. No amount of wealth or assets or privilege can make up for not being able to have basic sort of freedoms that a lot of us take for granted. So no, I would not want to have that life." Lori Bashian is an entertainment production assistant for Fox News Digital. 

"No. The fairytale image of it seems so extraordinary – living in palaces and having everything you want and servants and all that kind of stuff," he said. "But the reality seems to be that there are far more restrictions than there are freedoms. No amount of wealth or assets or privilege can make up for not being able to have basic sort of freedoms that a lot of us take for granted. So no, I would not want to have that life."
