When I work, I live in a fantasy world. It's great. I get to play different characters who inspire me.

I feel like if a film is well-written, then the character's arc is complete. There really is very little room to expand on that afterwards.

I take away something from every role. I'm still learning and that's what life is about.

The experience you have making the movie is all you have; when the movie's finished, that's for other people. But while you're doing it, that's your time on the planet, so you want it to be good.

There's a myth about actors saying, 'Oh no, that's not me on screen at all. I'm just acting.' OK, if I were to say to you that's not me, that's fine. And I would tell you that I don't behave like a villain everyday, and that's true, I don't. But to say there's absolutely none of me in there is ridiculous.

I grew up in the art world.

I've been doing some writing, which I find very cathartic and fun.
