Ethan Hawke says he’d prefer never to win an Oscar, but wants to keep being nominated.
The actor has two nominations for Best Supporting Actor – in Training Day and last year’s Boyhood – and two for Best Adapted Screenplay for Before Sunset and Before Midnight.
However, he wants to surpass Peter O’Toole’s record of eight nominations without ever winning.
“So much mediocrity is strung up the flagpole. I’d rather not win,” he probably lied.
“One of my acting ambitions is to beat Peter O’Toole who got eight nominations and never won.”
