Life isn't one-dimensional. The world isn't simply divided into good versus evil. I think we're all capable of both.

If you are with someone who is awesome and having a good time, you can sit at a bus station and still have fun.

Swedes are such a civilised, perfect society - at least on the surface. There's a great safety net, a huge middle class, free education, free health care. People are very polite, they wait their turn. They're not too loud, they're not too quiet, but sometimes it's a little too perfect.

All the characters I play are all inside of me in a way, and they're all different, the darkness, the lightness, whatever that is.

If you're a great documentary filmmaker, it doesn't necessarily mean that you're a great narrative filmmaker. There are fantastic documentary filmmakers that can't direct actors. You don't have to do that in a documentary, if it's a real documentary.

When you meet a director who wants to remake a movie, you have to ask, does he or she have an interesting vision and idea, something that intrigues you - is there a reason why we should do this?

I'm an actor and I love to find new collaborations and new characters where I can grow as an actor and human being.
