I don't do plays without jokes anymore. I've retired from those plays. I think it's bad manners to invite people to sit in the dark for two and a half hours and not tell them the joke.

I like being in kids' movies, and I like being in family movies.

It can't be overstated how wonderful it is not to have to audition any more. Any actor will tell you, it's like Christmas.

I'm just aware of what I'm thinking and feeling but I do obviously have to get that to the back of the auditorium. So there are things like projection and filling the room, and not dropping the ends of lines - technical things which are important, but I don't think they change the way I feel in a scene.

I'm relaxed naked as long as there is no one else there. I speed up past mirrors.

I used to think that prizes were damaging and divisive, until I got one, and now they seem sort of meaningful and important.

If I'm going to appear in front of people I like to look my best.
