Adam Levine did film for free

Singer Adam Levine, who made his film debut with comedy Begin Again, says he did the movie for free.

The Maroon 5 frontman, who plays musician Dave Kohl in the film which also stars Keira Knightley and Mark Ruffalo, says he chose to do the movie for experience, reports contactmusic.com.

He told USA Today: “I did this movie for no money. I’m very lucky that I’m in that position. I want to have good experiences. I don’t want to do a bunch of s*** that I hate. I want to treat [acting] completely differently because I have the very fortunate luxury of not having to think of this in terms of money.”

Begin Again is scheduled for a UAE release on August 21.
