Michael Sheen told The Guardian what inspired him to do his Secret Million Pound Giveaway and some other charity projects, like funding Cardiff 2019 Homeless World Cup. More below:
Michael Sheen walks into a post office in Port Talbot and asks to withdraw £100,000. “That would be nice,” says the young woman behind the till. Then it dawns on her that he’s not joking. “Can I do £100,000?” she asks her colleague. She cannot.
“I loved that so much. She was really funny,” says Sheen. Filmed for a new Channel 4 documentary, Michael Sheen’s Secret Million Pound Giveaway, this was part of the actor’s two-year project to use £100,000 of his own money to buy £1m worth of debt, owed by about 900 people in south Wales – and immediately cancel it.

taking on payday lenders, loan sharks and the entire rigged banking industry in a new documentary that continues his campaigning work on the high cost of credit. He’s also using his own money to cancel people’s debts in his local community.Michael Sheen’s Secret One Million Pound Giveaway begins with the actor entering a Post Office. “I’d like to make a withdrawal please.
