My only two constants are to challenge myself and to try not to repeat myself.

Having started out in theatre, I feel an impulse to do it as much as I can

I think it's necessary to keep moving forward. I've always said that nostalgia is death, really for anyone creative.

You do your due diligence, you read as much as you can, and then, ultimately, I find that you discard that and you concentrate on the characters [of 'Antropoid'] and you can draw on [the research] if you wish, but I think ultimately it's about bringing as much truth and honesty to the portrayal as possible.

There's this thing that's come about that wasn't there when I started acting which is they do this thing called a chemistry test. They put a camera in front of two people, it's usually a boy and a girl, and they go, [whispering]. It's impossible. You can't manufacture it or film it, it just has to happen.

I'd love to work in America, some of my favourite films come from America.

For me, drama is conflict.
