I'm also a fan of ridiculously coloured and patterned socks.

In terms of drama school, what that will give you that you won't necessarily learn on a film set is the technical ability - ie, projecting your voice and stage craft.

You pick projects for the part, the director, and the script. I just want to do different, interesting stuff.

Well, I think I’m a feminist, just by the virtue of the fact that I believe in equal rights for everyone.

I don't think that you necessarily need a certain type of background to take on roles. You see actors from very, very privileged backgrounds playing working class characters and vice-versa. I don't think your background limits you as to what you can do.

I just have this fear that I'll get on stage and there'll be that brief moment of adrenalin and I'll forget my line.

I used to joke I was a point-and-click actor. My whole process has been about trusting your instincts and hitting your mark.
