An Instant Fan Favorite
Now based in America, he was drawing a lot more attention to himself. People loved his acting in The Manions of Ireland and he was becoming a well-known figure. It was this role that earned him the chance to star in popular household show, Remington Steele. Brosnan initially auditioned for the comedic sidekick, but the director saw that his brilliant acting would be wasted on a side role. He decided to give Brosnan the lead! The role would fix Brosnan as a proper Hollywood actor and give him the platform to earn other roles. Not everyone loved Pierce though…
An Unhappy Co-Worker
Nobody expects to get along with every single person they come into contact with. Brosnan is a loveable figure, but there was one person who just didn’t vibe with him, Stephanie Zimbalist. Zimbalist played the role of Laura Holt, a love interest to Remington Steele. It was quite evident that the two didn’t get on but luckily this didn’t stop them both from doing their jobs properly. It was said that the pair never spoke unless they needed to for a scene. Perhaps the atmosphere on set was a bit awkward, but this issue became tiny when something bigger happened to Brosnan at the workplace.
