I became an actor by doing school plays and youth theaters, and then National Youth Theatre of Great Britain. And then I did study at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts. For me that was a good way to enter the field, to work in the theater.

I have always been very fortunate in my working life in terms of the, I say that like I've not been fortunate at all in my private life.

Certainly what constitutes a stage actor, what constitutes a film actor, I don't even know what that is. And both things are very accurate, in a sense. In terms of people's needs to concentrate on race, I wonder if it's completely necessary, but it's not something that is so dynamically relevant to me that I feel it should be one thing or another.

I believe people instinctively know that about writing, yet people get confused about that when it comes to acting.

I've often had the fortune to work on projects with a small theme I find very interesting enough to pursue and to be passionate about in the context of the story, then it may turn out there's a universality about my character which still resonates with many people as well.

Working in this industry, I do feel that science and creativity turned out to be a very useful combination for me.

I wouldnt be the same actor if I couldnt do theater.
