When you're seventeen to early twenties, that's the time you're trying to work out who you are. If you're trying to make some kind of artistic or creative impact, that's the age when you start to figure out how to do that.

I've always had, like, from the age of about 11, I've had such an intolerance for bad behaviour of actors that I don't think I was ever going to be that person.

I like the idea of not having to do stuff for the money, and if I want to, I can pick indie projects for the rest of my life and be quite happy doing that.

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.

I think pressure is a good thing and it's good to be able to feel it and use it and experience the feeling of it and especially if you can get past it.

Franchises aren't to be avoided. They can be exciting, and they give you opportunities to do other films.

I was very much a product of the public-school system. There was only one other kid in my class who had parents not involved in the stock market or law.
