Mum did a lot of commercial theatre and farces in the 1980s and '90s to make sure the school bills were paid.

I'm a high-functioning sociopath, do your research.

Doctor Strange is selfish but he's still saving lives.

I remember very clearly someone saying, 'Don't shake hands with the cactus,' and I thought, 'Well, why not? What could possibly go wrong?' Shaking hands is a friendly gesture.

Pull the hair on my head the wrong way, and I would be on my knees begging for mercy. I have very sensitive follicles.

Mads [Mikkelsen] and I have a really epic brawl - a week shoot, lots of rehearsal - and he was just delightful. He's a dancer and a gymnast so he knows how to plant the moves. He was always saying, "Are you okay?" When you've got that level of mutual consideration you form a family very quickly.

I never really got obsessed about one thing for long. I was a bit of a butterfly and a magpie.
