Nathan Fillion, Patrick Stewart, Karen Gillan and Kelly Hu at Salt Lake Comic Con FanX 2014
Patrick Stewart makes it so at FanX
When Patrick Stewart was working on his one man A Christmas Carol. He came to Salt Lake
City to try it out before he took the show to New York. He made his stay in
Utah into a vacation. (Checkout this YouTube video on what Salt Lake City means to him.)
When he joined the Screen Actors Guild (SAG), he had trouble with his name. Stewart had already been acting for over 30 years, but there was another Patrick Stewart on the books, so he had to come up with a middle name. Stewart chose “Hewes” because he could say all three names together and the “Hewes” disappeared. SAG got the problem straightened out and Stewart was able to drop the middle name. “A few weeks ago, The Guardian newspaper outed me as part of the gay community. The first person to congratulate me was my good friend Ian McKellen,” says Stewart, who was honored by the sentiment. “Ian kind of made me an honorary gay man.” Stewart has never seen The Big Bang Theory, Game of Thrones or Downtown Abbey. He is a theater actor, so he works in the evenings. He will catch The Late Show with Jon Stewart and soccer matches. “All I ever wanted to do was be on stage acting in Shakespeare,” says Stewart. “I love box sets,” says Stewart. His mother-in-law introduced him to box sets when she gave him Deadwood. |
