Listen, acting is not surgery, it's entertainment. You're doing something to hopefully move people, to make them laugh, to transport them. But actors are vulnerable, and the reason we're vulnerable is that we're always trying to recreate human behaviour.

Actors who perhaps are super-confident and have absolute belief in themselves I always admire, because I can't really be like that.

I love the variety of films. In theater, you go into a room and the director runs the room, so you all work to his or her method. On film, if an actor or an actress is in for a day or two, the director has to get out of that actor what they need, so they have to change and adapt to that actor's technique.

I'm trying to buy a house and set some sense of roots because otherwise you're constantly chasing one job after another, and you look back and you've had all these very extraordinary experiences with extraordinary people, but there's not a line of continuity to it.

I love the Potter films. I found them the most wonderful sort of escapism every year or two.

Most actors hate watching their own films because all you can see is the glaring mistakes, your own tricks and ticks.

I'm as voyeuristic and intrigued as the next person as to how celebrities live.
