My theory in anything you do is to keep exploring, keep digging deeper to find new stuff.

I can't always pick and choose, but I try very hard to take the roles where they are a bit more human. Sometimes there's a hilarious thing that comes along and it might not be the most interesting character, but I'm just delighted to be able to do something.

Film has always been hard for me, I'm basically a stage actress. I never felt comfortable in front of the camera.

I'm mostly a jazz fan and I've never really been into rock 'n' roll music — although I guess Coldplay isn't really rock 'n' roll — but he's made me a convert. I do go to their concerts whenever we're in the same town and I don't even have to wear earplugs any more, which I did in the beginning.

Just look at my face. Its an extraordinary experience. All of my friends who are grandparents have been saying, just wait, a bit cynically, but its just extraordinary. You feel like a child again yourself. Just walking on air.

I try to avoid a specific image. I seek to play as many different women as I can to avoid having a label put on me.

Acting is really only part of my life. I'm addicted to it.
