I had a really fantastic dialect coach that I worked very well with, and I was constantly surprised by the different intonations that the Russian dialect has.

Audiences like to be challenged and to be actively involved and try to guess an outcome.

It's very difficult to make comedy work; I think it's a very underrated genre.

But there's a difference between privacy and secrecy, and I'm not a secretive person.

Really I just want to get on with my job, which is to pretend to be lots of different people. Simple as that.

I find any sort of acting that doesn't have any humor in it is mind-numbingly boring. 'Serious acting' is the kind of acting that I don't ever respond to.
