It's been said that alcoholics are egomaniacs with low self -esteem. It's the prefect description. Being larger than life and yet your pride is crushed with self- loathing.

Over the years, I have been asked to play these sort of scary frenetic characters that express their emotions physically.

I want my weekends off and I want to put my kids to bed. Those are good reasons to want to be in 'Batman 2'.

My passion and energy get mistaken for anger.

I still don't have a publicist. If I'm in a film, you have an obligation to promote it, I'll do as much as I can.

So Harry Potter came in and it is nice that I have kids of the right age. I took them to London and they walked around the set and met Harry Potter and that is thrilling.

Sometimes directors feel like they have to justify that hat that they are wearing they've got on as a director, and they come in and they tweak and interfere.
