It's always lovely to be part of a project that, on a creative level, is done for all the right reasons.

If a great opportunity arises, you can't say no. But you do have to pick and choose a little more.

I choose jobs quite selfishly. I do them for me and the exploration you get to go on with a character... seeing how they react in certain situations, how they develop. If audiences enjoy it, then that's the cherry on top. You don't expect it but it's really nice when it happens. It adds to it and enhances the overall experience.

The last two days of shooting ('Harper's Island') was probably the most hardcore, the coldest anyone has ever been. It was like your head was freezing, and my motivation for most scenes was, 'The minute this scene is over, I'm heading straight over to that heater to get warm.'

You don't want to get pigeon-holed. So, I always get attracted to parts that are different from the previous ones I've played.

The only thing that is guaranteed in life is that we're all gong to die at some point, so it's important to make the most of now.
