Australia's not so bad with me, really, people are pretty cool with me at home, but in England it feels a little bit scary.

English is no problem for me because I am actually English. My whole family are English; I was brought up listening to various forms of the English accent.

There's many more films being made in America than there are in Australia. You make four hundred and fifty films a year, we make twenty-five.

My problem is I'm an addictive personality. I can't have one coffee. I can't eat one piece of chocolate. I can't have a little bit of drugs.

I'm far more comfortable in my 40s than I ever was.

I tend to project my father figure onto any director that I'm working with, or mother, if I'm working with a female, or it can be confused.

I'm a musician, and I'm fascinated with the effects of sound, and tone, and pitch and melody and all that sort of stuff. It's the first thing I have to solidify whenever...I get into a character. The first thing I need to get sorted out before I can then move forward, before I can feel any confidence whatsoever, is the voice.
