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

When you're actually filming, there are times when you get access to places you'd never get to see.

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.

As with anything in life, when you have certain experiences at pivotal times, they shape you.

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.

In life, you're supposed to get wiser, so as an actor, even just through your own life experiences, you're already richer as a person and have more to pull on. And this job is great for the places it takes you to, the things it makes you interested in and the skills you get to learn.

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