Performing a one-man Macbeth feels like the greatest challenge.

Actually I like working kind of fast, because if you got it, why bother doing it over and over?

Romeo is the most misunderstood character in literature, I think. He's hardcore to play because he's displaying the characteristics of Hamlet at the beginning, and, well, then everything else happens.

I like the tragedies way more than the comedies because they're so universal.

My mum always told me I was precious, while my dad always told me I was worthless. I think that's a good grounding for a balanced life.

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.

It's really rare for film directors to be that interested in things other than themselves.
