I went to the premiere of The Bucket List in London today and after lots of waiting in freezing conditions, I got to meet an actor I've idolized for most of my life.
They often say "don't meet your heroes" but that luckily didn't ring true in this case. Jack was amazing. It looked like he signed autographs for almost everyone who was in the front row and he was smiling and laughing along with the crowd a lot. I got him to sign a Joker poster I'd taken along and I told him how much I love his films and asked if I could shake his hand. Jack grinned and happily shook hands with me before moving on. He came across as a real gentleman and seems like a real crowd pleaser. I'd heard good things about Jack as an autograph signer before but I'm glad I got to test the theory myself and have it proved true.
A real legend, and I feel so honoured to have been able to have this experience.
