There's this shop in New York I go to; it has bones and fossils and insects that are like works of art. I have a few on my wall.

When I'm at an event, I like to be an eccentric dresser. I will just keep wearing what I like.

I didn't want to do 'Casino Royale' when they told me to audition. I said no. Then they sent me the script, and I thought it was actually very interesting - and I had no other work at the time.

I struggle to watch myself in any scene, to be honest. What's done is done. I wish I was able to watch myself, as it would really help me develop as an actor. But I'm not brave enough. It's a difficult thing to do - looking at yourself as this utterly different person on a screen.

I would love to play an unexpected character. Really raw and simple and not a cliche - something rugged. People like to put actors in boxes.

I give everything to my work, and I like complex roles, characters that aren't obvious. I've been very lucky so far, and I'm dreaming of working with directors like Jane Campion, Susanne Bier and the Dardennes. But the gods will decide.

At drama school, I always picked the really evil roles. It's a great way to deal with your everyday emotions.
