I've been working since I was 9, and I've never known a life without a film set.

I think any actor worth their salt wants to show as much versatility as they possibly can.

Shyness displays itself differently in me. I think it's more an awkwardness.

Don't try too hard to be something you're not.

I basically have the diet of a 19th-century Irish navy, apart from the litre of stout a day. It's meat and potatoes and bread and cheese: those are my four food groups.

I don't want to say I'll never play someone with a cockney accent, but I think I would be irritated by me doing it.

I really enjoy working physically.
