One of the things I love, more than anything, is jumping around and playing lots of different parts. I love the variety of playing different characters.

Movies are certainly a director's medium, so getting the opportunity to work with really good directors is everything to me.

I am a big soccer fan, and a very big Liverpool fan.

Ultimately, to have a career in movies, to a certain extent, certainly in England, you can't sustain a career in just English movies.

I've done a number of things based on real people or true stories or based on books, and I'm a great believer that you have to be true to the script.

There's certainly a huge element of luck in me ending up where I've ended up.

I go home to London in between jobs, and in London, my life has nothing to do with the business. It's a family life, hanging with friends.
