Star Wars Ewan Mcgregor Loses Temper Over Autograph Dealers Calling Them "Parasitical Lowlifes'; Hinted 1996 Drama ‘Trainspotting’ Sequel In 2016

Star Wars' Obi-Wan Kenobi actor Ewan Mcgregor, recently, loses his temper and states that he needed to meet real fans of the movie series rather than autograph dealers who are not really interested about meeting their idols but to get that highly-coveted celebrity signatures and sell them later on. In his most honest way, Mcgregor expressed his anger towards these autograph hunters in an interview with Details magazine.

"The people I meet are the f*****s who want me to sign Star Wars photos so they can sell them on the Internet or the people at premieres who are crushing children against barriers to get me to sign their f***ing picture of Obi-Wan Kenobi,' the Scottish actor said with dismay.

Further, he said, "They're not fans - they're parasitical lowlifes and f***ing wankers."

Being asked about his reaction on being criticized, the actor said, "'I don't mind the criticism. I've heard it to my face."

In the interview with Details, the magazine has remembered some of  Mcgregor's past achievements including  his the 1996 drama "Trainspotting" as he portrayed the role of heroin addict, Mark Renton. When asked whether the film has a sequel, the award-winning actor said, "It looks like it might happen. The idea is that we shoot it in 2016″-20 years after the original."

Earlier this month, BadAss Digest revealed that Ewan Mcgregor is being eyed by Marvel to portray as Doctor Strange, an upcoming movie.

Marvel Studios is "looking at him and has been preparing for the role - doing the usual research actors do when looking at taking on an adaptation or existing character."

However, updates on the Doctor Strange search said that there are other candidates for the character such as Matthew McConaughey, Jake Gyllenhaal,  Oscar Isaac,  Ethan Hawke and Jared Leto.
