I had to ride a horse once. In 'King Arthur.' I said I could ride, but I had to call for lessons on the day the deal was signed. I started out on this little chunky thing and slowly moved up. It was months of work.

It's important to me that everyone is treated with respect.

I'm not the kind of actor who goes into exhaustive research for each role.

When I started in the theater, the joy for me was playing different parts, and I get set alight by different people and different worlds. The biggest joy for me is jumping around and going from that to this to that, never feeling that I'm any one thing - because I'm not, and we as people aren't.

Action scenes are not that different from other scenes.

I really believe you can carry yourself in such a way that people don't notice you.

I would never give anybody any advice about anything.
