For ages, in my lunch hours, I would just go round and choreograph fight scenes. For fun. So now I'm very good at being thrown around. I bounce, in the words of my friends.

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

I didn't have that normal teenage period when you build up your friends in your area and you have a social circle.

I might like to be an actor, but there are loads of other things I'm interested in as well, like music and writing and sports. I want to keep my options open.

When you get as lucky as I got, you have to work as hard as possible to earn that luck.

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.

My preparation is mainly just knowing the lines and getting in and knowing where your character is, knowing what it's about and having ideas that you can put in on the day.
