My job isn't about pursuing fame and then becoming an actor. It's about becoming an actor and if fame follows suit, that's fine.

There are a lot of great young actors coming out of England who have maybe not gone to drama school, but I wish I had.

I've always loved [acting] and I've always wanted to [do it] from as far back as I can remember.

People have interesting things to say and you're only going to learn from different people's experience and knowledge.

From a stupidly young age I was always involved in anything, whether it be a nativity play or little kids plays. Wherever it was, I was involved and I think it was because more than anything, I wanted to be the center of attention.

It's funny because growing up, when Ali G first burst off the screen, it was something that I was probably too young to be watching, but I absolutely loved it.

If I look at the people that I look up to, a lot of them don't come to the forefront until their early to mid-30s. I think the most exciting roles are definitely yet to come.
