At the end of the day, I choose something that makes my heart beat, that I can relate to, that's very complex, or human.

In a Tim Burton movie, you know it's going to be something unusual, or a bit mad. Something "other."

There are ways of doing stunts without me. I get no pleasure putting my life in jeopardy just to get the shot. Life is too short for that nonsense.

I was cast last minute for Casino Royale. They asked me to fly to Prague. I liked the script very much. I flew to Prague and did a bit of an audition. I was really focused and stressed out. And Daniel Craig was there. He was very, very blonde, like a Steve McQueen. He's moving a lot in real life. He's quite nervous. He was very lovely, very patient, and really connecting with me when we did the screen test.

I wear no makeup in real life. I'm very simple. That may be why I go over the top for the red carpet. But otherwise, I'm very plain. I should make more of an effort, actually.

At the end of the day, I choose something that makes my heart beat, that I can relate to, that's very complex, or human.

I've never been very good talking about myself.
