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 studied English literature at university, but for some reason we only spent one week on [Charles] Dickens, so I remember just trying to find the shortest book that I could find. I was like, "'Hard Times,' really great - it's short, that'll do it."

When you're believing in the person that you're playing, you feel protected. It's about being true to that person you're playing.

My most treasured item is the brown leather bag that my mum bought me from a little Italian shop for my 21st. It's supposed to be a vanity bag, but I use it as a handbag.

I'm not a huge jewelry fan.

There's such a sense of theatre in getting glammed up; it's like putting on a play or short film.
