Well, it's difficult to fall in love with a character when you just read the pilot. You don't really know who the character is.

There are a lot of theories about Shakespeare.

It's Aslan, the lion from The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe. It's a symbol of my hellish childhood. I struggled through my oppressive teenage years and when I turned 18 I escaped. Like Aslan I was finally free.

The movies I made early on may not have been great, but they were all commercially successful.

I mean, I sing. But I don't think I'm a good enough singer to do any kind of musical.

Unless it's a specific accent, or something about physicality you have to change, I am generally not such a conscious actor.

This life that I've led has been really well suited for me.
