Morgan Freeman is one of the most recognizable and beloved actors in Hollywood, but even he has moments of envy. In a recent interview with The Sunday Times, Morgan opened up about his career and how he’s “envious” of Denzel Washington’s ambition. He said that Denzel is doing what he wanted to do – something Morgan himself hasn’t been able to achieve so far in his career.
The admiration between these two actors goes both ways; when asked about Freeman during an interview with Variety magazine last year, Washington said: “He’s like my big brother — I love him dearly”. It seems that their mutual respect has only grown over the years as they have watched each other succeed in their respective careers.
Despite being envious of Denzel Washington’s success, it doesn’t seem to have dampened Morgan Freeman’s enthusiasm for acting or filmmaking at all – if anything it appears to be inspiring him more than ever before! With a long list of awards and accolades under his belt already, there are sure to be many more successes ahead for this iconic actor who continues to entertain us on screen time after time again.
