I love a film where I get squished by two dumpsters or I fly through the air.

I'm Scottish first, and it's odd to hear that I'm a Scottish-American.

I had to be a grown-up when I should have been a little boy, and now that I'm a grown-up my little-boyness has exploded out of me. I've lived my life backwards.

A sweaty Macbeth with blood on his arms coming in fresh from the battle doesn't interest me.

Pantomime is a big thing in the cultural calendar of my country, you know. So subtlety's not my forte.

Kids are more genuine. When they come up and want to talk to you, they don't have an agenda. It's more endearing and less piercing to your aura.

The thing with film and theater is that you always know the story so you can play certain cues in each scene with the knowledge that you know where the story's going to end and how it's going to go. But on television nobody knows what's going to happen, even the writers.
