There's no conversation more boring than talking about what it's really like to live in Newport and how the show compares to the real thing. I just don't care.

It helps if you don't date other actors, but actresses are beautiful. How can you say no?

I just want to be in good things that I want to see, and I want to work with talented people who are smarter than myself.

Transitioning to being an unemployed film actor is different, but it's fun and I've been looking forward to it for a while.

I always enjoyed movies and in hindsight I realise how captivating they were to me.

Most of the time, my favorite drama has comedy in it as well. I think most good dramas have comedy in there. And all of the dramatic actors I look up to are also very funny.

I like great directors who are scarce. Prolific ones are nice too but for me, there's something about the scarcity that makes it all the more valuable.
