I wanted to be a salty Irishman, a Colin Farrell bad boy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;d rather be shot than be seen falling out of some trendy club. Actually, what I&#8217;d like is to have a reputation as someone who&#8217;s been wild and gone straight, but without having to go through the trouble of being bad.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;d like to be a hell-raiser &#8211; but skip hell-raising itself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ben mastered a Dublin accent for his role in new movie &#8216;Killing Bono&#8217; and he admits he enjoyed using the dialect so much, he considered altering his speaking voice permanently.<\/p>\n<p>He explained: &#8220;I loved being Irish. I shared a flat with Robbie Sheehan and by the end of the film, I told him I was going to keep my accent. Rob pointed out that people knew I was English so I&#8217;d seem strange.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--INFOLINKS_OFF--><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/224f048eetURLCookie.asp_108.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Read this article:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.contactmusic.com\/news.nsf\/story\/ben-barnes-wants-wild-image_1210820\" title=\"BEN BARNES WANTS WILD IMAGE\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BEN BARNES WANTS WILD IMAGE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Ben Barnes has admitted he hates his nice guy image and would love to be a hellraiser like Colin Farrell.
