I genuinely believe that if you want to get in the film business, get in the film business.

I was sick and tired of being an English actor who did a lot of American movies because I was cheap and good.

As a kid, I kind of spent my life being amazed by being tricked. I love being tricked. I still love it today.

I'm not James Bond. There's your headline! It's very clear to me that he's the furthest from my character that it's possible to be. It's somebody I play.

Action movies live and die by the story that you're trying to tell. It's hard. It's very difficult to do an action movie that stays engaging.

I'm not averse to earning someone; in fact I'd love to earn some money. But also my choices of movies don't tend to make money but I get to make interesting films. But it doesn't mean I don't want to earn shitloads of cash.

I genuinely believe that if you want to get in the film business, get in the film business.
