I had the privilege of being able to choose, or at least have the opportunity to work at, being anything but an actor.

I drive a motorbike, so there is the whiff of the grim reaper round every corner, especially in London.

It's always important to have the blessing.

To get a horse to hit a mark without a rider, to get it to stand up, to get it to rear, to get it to pick up a bucket and bring it over is amazing. It's hard work and very rewarding but can be dangerous.

I am shortsighted. I need glasses for watching movies or concerts. It's not a hipster affectation; I do have poor eyesight. This is how ridiculous my life is: I've had the test for contact lenses, but I haven't found a half-day where I can go to the optician.

I never was obsessive about anything I watched when I was a kid, except maybe 'The A-Team' and 'Airwolf' And I loved 'Knight Rider' and then later 'Baywatch.'

[Scott Derrickson] is terrific, really sharp on the details, and he's not afraid to go to dark places.
