Keith’s American dream

IRISH actor Keith Duffy has revealed that he would love to land a role in an American drama series.

Speaking to RTÉ, the Coronation Street star explained that he wants to focus more on acting now.

“I love being in Boyzone and I love being part of a band,” he said.

“But to be honest with you, I’m more into Boyzone because I love spending time with the lads, we love reminiscing and having the craic together. But it’s not my passion — my passion now and my ambitions now would definitely be towards the acting.”

Duffy said his dream would be to end up in America. “They have fantastic direction and budgets and wonderful scriptwriters.

That’s where I would love to end up. I never went to acting school or drama college, I was lucky enough to learn from the ground up on a show like Coronation Street.

I’m starting to explore a lot of the acting avenues, but ultimately American TV is where my dream is at.”
