Dominic Cooper’s Typecasting Fears

Dominic Cooper is afraid of being typecast as ”the guy from ‘Mamma Mia!’ who sings on a jet ski.”

Dominic Cooper is worried he will only be known for singing on a jet ski in ‘Mamma Mia!’.

The ‘Tamara Drewe’ actor – who rose to fame after starring in the musical movie, where he started dating his leading lady Amanda Seyfried – admits he is desperate to work on other movie projects, so he doesn’t get typecast.

He said: “I’ve never had a plan. I just want to work with really good directors. I don’t want to be the guy from ‘Mamma Mia!’ who sings on a jet ski.”

The actor fought off stiff competition for the role in the romantic comedy movie.

‘American Pie’ star Chris Klein’s audition video became an instant hit when it was leaked onto the internet, something which Dominic admits “filled him with confidence”.

When asked if he saw it, he told Empire magazine: “I have, yes. My immediate reaction was I was upset for him. My God, if my audition for that was ever seen. OK, it’s quite amusing. It filled me with confidence!”

Cooper’s Shame Over Soccer Blunder

Cooper’s Shame Over Soccer Blunder

DOMINIC COOPER was left red-faced when he tried to fulfil his dream of becoming a star soccer player – he fluffed his chance in front of thousands of fans.

The Mamma Mia! star was taking part in Britain’s Soccer Aid event, which raises money for Unicef, and was relishing the opportunity to finally play the sport inside a packed stadium.

He was brought on as a substitute midway through the game in Manchester, England in June (10) – but humiliated himself in front of the 70,000-strong crowd by bungling his big moment.

He tells Empire magazine, “It was a painful experience. The ball was miles up in the air and everything went silent. It was like a film, and I went to volley it… and it hit my kneecap. It was pathetic. It never works like that in the films.”

Life’s not all Mamma Mia! and Captain America for the UK film industry’s new avenger

First glimpse finds him silhouetted against a window, gazing at an object held aloft while something classical swirls in the background.

Is it the text of a play; a letter; poor Yorick’s skull, perchance?

Alas for those who like their actors more rock ’n’ roll than scroll ’n’ drag, it turns out to be an iPad. Dominic Cooper is catching up on his e-mails. “Business is being achieved,” he says jokily in a London accent that sits nicely between the National Theatre and a night out with his best mate, James Corden.

“You don’t like the look of that, I can tell,” he teases. “You didn’t agree with that at all.”

It’s been six years since Cooper first played the part of Dakin the charmer in Alan Bennett’s The History Boys, and there’s still a lot of the playground wag about him, the clever lad who is good for a giggle but who also knows his way around a classic or two.
