My parents were what I like to call proper musical fans. Lots of Sondheim was played in the car.

I get constantly mistaken for Elijah Wood.

Religion leaves no room for human complexity.

I don't think there's anything that I would really baulk at doing on-screen. I don't think so. I've got certain pet peeves about writing... my pet peeve about reading scripts is when they give you a line reading and there'll be a line but next to your character's name it'll say 'very angry'. But I'm like: "Well, I'll decide that actually!" So, there's little things like that. That's a slight pet peeve.

What I learned is that acting is to a large extent about trying to stave off self-doubt long enough to be natural and real onstage.

I'll say American for now. I really have no preference, though. Nationality is nothing. It's all about the girl - but she has to be curvy!

If I was left to my own devices, you would see about ten T-shirts in rotation with maybe a few nice pairs of jeans - but I also like to look good. I like feeling really well put together, I just don't have the aptitude and the knowledge to do that.
