When I'm putting the character together I try to find music that I think fits the character.

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.

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.

I want to go to the extremes and transformation is something I'm fascinated by. At the same time, you can transform but you can only really put what you've got inside you into somebody, so there's always going to be a degree of you inhabiting any role.

I want to be 82 and doing movies with Paolo Sorrentino where people are like, "This is gold."

I'm a big fan of British cinema; I think we make some unbelievably brilliant films, but they can quite often have a dark feel.

There's a lot of content out there that's for an older audience but what struck me was that people who like those grittier, slightly punchier shows could still watch this but with their children as well.
