Some actresses are just insane. I've never worked with a nasty actress - they're all absolutely delightful. But completely barking.

A gay murder movie is never going to be, like, breaking box office records.

Being self-critical is good; being self-hating is destructive. There's a very fine line there somewhere, and I walk it carefully.

I'm sure when I have a nostalgic, teary moment in 10 years time, I'll try to put the glasses when I was 10 on and cry to myself in front of the mirror

One of the things that I cannot fathom is young actors who will not audition and won't read.

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.

To be fair, it's not even the first time I've seen a dead version of myself. There was one on Harry Potter, on the last movie, that they actually used to bring to set in a body bag.
