Anything that involves the outdoors I'm all about, whether it be skiing, snowboarding, wakesurfing to mountain-biking. Anything that gets me outside.

I think people get intimidated, and they think results should happen right away. Like I said earlier, the body can only change so fast, and so when you're doing it right you just have to keep at it and keep up with a balanced program.

I wasn't a huge fan of the comic book, but I definitely was of the cartoon series. I wasn't much for sitting around and reading as a kid, I preferred to be outside running around and playing sports, but I was absolutely thrilled to get the role of Colossus. I don't think I realised how popular the character was until I got the role and started doing some research; it was then that I really fell in love with the character of Colossus myself.

I really tried to work out hard to emulate the look and feel of the character, and did my best to represent the great artists that created him. At the same time, as an actor you have to find what you relate to in the character and make it your own, and hopefully people respond to it.

I like the fact that I can do stunts, but I don't think of myself as a stunt guy. Those guys are really good at what they do.

I know what it's like to have an inflated libido.

I don't mind what the role is at all; I just want to play cool characters.
