Listen to the full interview exclusively on the Bestseller Experiment App: Hollywood actor Richard Armitage is best known as Thorin in The Hobbit, appearances in Ocean’s 8, Captain America and the seventh most viewed Netflix show - Harlan Coben’s ‘Fool Me Once’. Richard also starred in shows including Obsession, Red Eye, Spooks, Robin Hood and North & South, as lead John Thornton. As a seasoned audiobook narrator, we talk with Richard about his second novel The Cut, as well as The Hobbit, how he sets life-changing goals and so much more. In this interview, you will learn: - What inspired his new Audible-exclusive book, The Cut. - How an elementary school teacher inspired Richard’s love of books including The Hobbit. - The power and intimacy of audiobooks. - How missing out on The Lord of the Rings led to him landing his major role in the Hobbit - Richard’s ritual of letting his bucket list goals go up in flames - And in the full interview on Bestseller Experiment App, Richard tells us the three books he’d take with him in his next life (they might surprise you) and poses a question for our future guest, Dean Koontz!
