Chris Sarandon Discusses His Character in 'The Princess Bride'

Chris Sarandon: Well, I didn't really get into what happened to poor Humperdink in his past. So I don't really know how it happened. I guess it's just an over-ambition, probably. Thank you very much. Have a great day. Interviewer: Is it fun playing the bad guy? Chris Sarandon: Yeah, it is, it's great fun. Interviewer: Or a bad guy. Chris Sarandon: Yes, well, a bad guy, right, one of the bad guys. Yeah, because you really just sort of get to let it all hang out, all those aggressive tendencies that sort of light dormant all the time. And it's interesting, too, because audiences tend to really sort of, get off on the bad guy's, too.
