I feel like J.K. Rowling's world is one that is owned by everyone in some ways. People have grown up with it and have such a sense of that universe that there's something kind of wonderful seeing everyone get involved.

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

I draw and play the piano badly. But when I’m doing those things, I’m concentrating so hard there’s no room for worry. I find that onstage, too.

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

I always think of comedy as being spontaneous, and yet everything about filmmaking is not spontaneous.

Making a film or doing a play are completely different experiences and entirely fulfilling, but completely unique. I also think one complements the other. People often say that theater is about flexing your muscles, and is actually real acting, whereas I sort of disagree.

If you've loved something and then in some ways you become a part of it, you just don't want to be the one that screws it up!
