Actor William H. Macy is known for his spineless characters, but there's another role he's dying to play: action hero.
Asked if he wants to star in a big-ticket action film, the 53-year-old actor is quick to respond.
"Yeah. Desperately," Macy said. "For the money, for the security of a franchise like that. And I love big action-adventure movies. They're way cool."
His new movie, "The Cooler," finds Macy as a Vegas loser so down on his luck he's hired to rub shoulders with hot gamblers to cool off their winning streaks. The film co-stars Alec Baldwin.
