Ray Winstone Quotes


On every job you do, you've got to raise your game. My ambition is to just get better and better every job you do - you should never stop trying to get better. You have to teach yourself new things - I don't think you necessarily learn them from other people because you have your own style of doing things, but hopefully you get better.

Raymond Andrew Winstone is an English television, stage and film actor with a career spanning five decades. Having worked with many prominent directors, including Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg, and starring alongside the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie and Mel Gibson, Winstone is perhaps best known for his "hard man" roles (usually delivered in his distinctive London accent). The first of these was the character Carlin in Scum, the 1979 film remake of a BBC television play in which Winstone had originated the role, and which was not broadcast due to its violent nature. The same year he played an ex-army soldier, Kevin, in the cult classic Quadrophenia. In the 'eighties he rose to prominence starring as Will Scarlet in the successful television series Robin of Sherwood. Winstone has since established himself as a prominent voice over actor, and also branched out into film production.
