(CNN) - "There is No more skeletons in my closet", Russell Brand told Piers Morgan of CNN. "Living in a haunted house".
"Piers Morgan Tonight on Wednesday," Morgan presented brand as "the man who put the sex, drugs and rock and roll in comedy," calling the comedian "an offender, a line-crosser, a madman and a genius". Brand, makes no secret of his shaky past, told Morgan, "know that I am an addict." They know that had been women. "They know that I've been in trouble with the police."
The actor also spoke with the CNN host about his new film, "Arthur", a classic remake of the 1980s, his marriage to pop superstar Katy Perry and his thoughts on the Royal family.
Mark described his car pre-sobriety in detail, saying he was "a squalid, retched, well than villain - a man of Raven's branch, burning in the streets of North London, gloves, fingerless, extended Palm, bags of smack in Pocket, pipe on the lips".
"Used to go out with pimps and prostitutes and junkies and fraudsters," continued the brand. "But the reality of life, you know, can take bright pearls in fun of it." But when his daily life is miserable.
Morgan asked Mark if their new huge success made him happier.
"Given that" I had a life that was as kind of stealing to survive, says Mark, "and having to get public transport without pay and sort of minor incidents and type of crime of low-life of things, then Yes." It is obviously easier to have money than poor dirt. But I think that to say that money brings happiness is reductive. "
Morgan held a brand license of California was a step in the right direction, because "they can not lead wild rockers".
Brand, who drives a Range Rover, said that it takes very seriously driving and seeks "to"accept that driving is not a means to express their true nature.""
The actor, who married the singer Perry in October, said Morgan, "really love married life." "I love the companionship and friendship and the consistency of someone being there".
Morgan asked if there was some truth to the rumors that the brand is teaming up with Tom Cruise and Alec Baldwin to make a film of the stage musical "Rock of ages" version. Mark said, "as a man who is married to a person that can often be on another continent, need put my marriage first." "See if we can work the program there, and then I will".
"Arthur", hits theaters on Friday.
"It is clear that it is replacing a legend," Morgan said. "I want to say, Dudley Moore made 'Arthur' this immortal character." "Do you have any hesitation in assuming a part of one of his heroes of comedy?"
"I have to Dudley Moore in such reverence," brand said. "I have such strong feelings and affection for the original film." "Only he felt as a privilege and an honor".
He called the film "a beautiful way of updating a very traditional and archetypal story".
Brand, a recovering alcoholic who played to a drunkard womanizer, had an interesting way to the preparation of their scenes. "I was smelling liquor bottles to get into character, because as you know it don't already drink."
"I take bottles of rum, tequila bottles, to evoke the memory".
He called the experience by saying "a distilled, but the positive aspect of alcoholism", was like being drunk with the exception of "having to wake up with a terrible headache and a stranger".
Brand said the general message of the film is that "Arthur is a billionaire, but he is unhappy and lonely until you love".
When the subject of the upcoming nuptials of Prince William and Kate Middleton, the two English had discussed the monarchy. Brand pointed out that it has been "overwhelmed by patriotism" from towards the United States.
"I've become sort of seduced by," continued the brand. "I think that these things have contributed to a renewed appreciation of the monarchy;" "But still I think absolutely equal in my heart."
Morgan asked mark the difference between British and American humor, and if the comedian tailors his act for the American public.
"I think that there is a direct corollary that is based on our language," said mark. "And, of course, I don't think is true that the American sense of humor is in any way to sophisticated when you think of geniuses such as Seinfeld (Jerry) and Pryor (Richard)."
As for future plans, mark told Morgan that he wants to "" continue to be a comedian, continue to be happy in my marriage and to make sure that when interacting with people, make them happy. ""See Piers Morgan weeknights 9 pm ET tonight. For the last of Piers Morgan click here.
