We live in a time where it's more surprising if people are actually together than if they're having affairs.

Acting has always existed alongside my normal life. It's been a case of learning on the job. I've worked in so many styles, with so many people, so I've picked bits up from everyone and everything.

I've done a lot of very low-budget indie films, so it was just really exciting and fun to be doing a film where there's a lot more time and these huge, vast sets. I was like a kid in a playground. It was amazing!

I've done quite a lot of improv work before, and I wanted to do this film ["The Invisible Woman"] because it felt like a different technique. We were very true to the lines, and there was something quite formal and almost theatrical about it.

I'm keen to have balance, as much as possible.

I've never done a superhero movie. It's very nice to you as an actor in several worlds to go and to experiment.

I think, as an actor, you're always traveling. There's a sense of dislocation sometimes from home.
