By Hollywood standards, they are so normal we don't even notice them. But in real life, they still don't exist. What if you could buy one today?

• I think I'm drawn to more villain-type characters, because it's so cool to get to say all the things you want to say. In Hollywood, you get to this position where you have to bite your tongue so much. You take all your experiences of not being able to say what you really want to say, and channel that through your character.

The idea was: if you could get them, think how many people would follow.
