I certainly think that when I flick through all the magazines at the hairdresser's I like to see and am drawn to images that have an intelligence and mind at work behind them.

I've reprised roles in the theatre, which is somehow more accepted, and where one can automatically go deeper and further into the role.

You will not leave the theater with nothing to talk about. For me, comedy and tragedy when you get them both in one evening, that's the most satisfying.

I had never done anything with blue screen before, or prosthetics, or anything like that. Lord of the Rings was like stepping into a videogame for me. It was another world completely. But, to be honest, I basically did it so that I could have the ears. I thought they would really work with my bare head.Working with Martin Scorsese was an absolute minute-by-minute education without him ever being grandiose about it.

People love events - they love performances, they love music - and I think Australians are great entertainers.

Marriage is a risk; I think it's a great and glorious risk, as long as you embark on the adventure in the same spirit.

Theater is all about foyers and conversation and digesting what you've seen.
