“I hoped so, well… At 20, I said to myself, ‘Hey, it wouldn’t be bad to do Zorro,'” he recalled. “Then at 30, you also say to yourself, ‘That would be good,’ then at 40, you have to put in a little more energy anyway… And I said to myself, ‘Well, it’ll never come…’ And from a childhood dream, it became an adult nightmare.”
Better late than never
But there is nothing better than family support to achieve your dreams. “It’s a very nice gift from Marc Dujardin, my brother, who saw me as a child playing in the garden, and he gave me this series,” he said.
