Pierce Brosnan: I fancied Meryl Streep at drama school

Actor reckons the Mamma Mia! star is hot

Pierce Brosnan loved working with Meryl Streep on a Greek island

Pierce Brosnan once had a crush on his Mamma Mia! co-star Meryl Streep, 59.

And he signed up for the film as soon as he found out she was in it.

‘When the gig first came in and they said “Meryl Streep, Greece”, I just said “I'm in.”,’ he tells Weekend.

‘I didn’t have a clue about what it was about. Just that Meryl, the blonde I fancied a lot as a young lad at drama school, was in it.

'She's a cracking looking girl.'

Pierce, 55, is married to Keely Shaye-Smith, 44.
