I was lucky enough, when I was younger, to have the chance to do as much as possible, and I found what I wanted to do. I did swimming, gymnastics, kickboxing and the one that took off more than the others was acting.

I grew up in the '90s. I listened to a lot of The Clash, Velvet Underground and Roxy Music. I wasn't into Boyzone, or anything.

It's funny because if you ever ask anyone in England to try and do a Beatles accent, no one knows what they really sound like. If you ask anyone in America, they would try and give it a go. English people just know their songs.

I was always told at school that you had to have a back-up plan, but all I ever wanted to do was act. There was no plan B for me.

I was brought up by a really proud, supportive family, so I have that sort of grounding.

There are so many elements that make a good film. You need a great director who's driving it.

I think with anything where you delve into the back story of an artist, it kind of explains their work more intimately.
