My idea of a real treat is Magic Mountain without standing in line.

I never talk about 'Harry Potter' because I think that would rob children of something that's private to them. I think too many things get explained, so I hate talking about it.

What is it about actors? God knows I get bored with actors talking about themselves.

I'm a lot less serious than people think, it's probably because the way my face is put together.

The point about a great story is that it's got a beginning, a middle and end.

Originally, theater was my life. It was what I assumed I'd spend my working life doing - if I was lucky. Then along came movies.

You know, London is so sprawling, and you can sometimes forget that anybody else is on a stage anywhere else.
