marlon

Emmerdale’s Mark Charnock has revealed that he’s played the role of Marlon Dingle for so long, he’s beginning to think he’s him!
Every actor strives to step into the shoes of the character they’re playing.

But it seems Mark has taken it a step too far and has even considered changing his name to Marlon!

“I get people calling out ‘Marlon’ on the street, and now it’s got to the point where I actually answer them!” Mark told Inside Soap magazine.

“I think I might change my name to Marlon by deed poll just to save confusion!”

i always wonder if actors sometimes do things that their characters would do

[Jade]

I think the actors sometimes bring parts of themselves into the characters they play.
