Joseph Quinn Likes to Snack at Parties

From Marvel hero to Beatles frontman, Joseph Quinn is a proven chameleon. But in the new Versace Greca eyewear campaign, inspired by a Room Six, a script by filmmaker Luna Carmoon, the British actor is showcasing his true self. Nostalgic for the traditional American yearbook photo, the intimate portrait series transports modern icons away from the bright lights of Hollywood and back toward their unvarnished beginnings. As Quinn gears up to play the role of a lifetime in George Harrison, he takes a short break to answer our burning questions about fame and plug his one true love: Lime bikes.
