It's nice having your work recognized but having people follow you around is kinda weird.

Losing my anonymity in this world I think is something that I find terrifying.

I like playing the villain.

Mum’s a musician. She plays piano and has a beautiful voice, so she understands the creative need. Mum lights up when she sees me. Her cheeks go pink – she’s all over me, pulling my hair, pinching my cheeks.

The mecca of filmmaking in the world just so happens to be in America. It's quite simply a case of us just going where the work is.

I do have a stunt double because there are certain things that they won't let me do. Like they won't set fire to me. They won't like let me jump off a 20 story building. There are certain big stunts that it's just impossible to get insurance to let me do, but for the most part I'd say I do probably 75% of my stuff.

To have a friend and a comrade as your co-star, especially in a romantic comedy, is really important. It gives you the room. It's easier to give yourself and the other person permission to play.
