I always think the really unfortunate thing about the Australian film industry is its lack of momentum. And I don't mean this in a derogatory way. I'm always wanting it to pick up momentum, and I'm wondering if that's even possible.

I never really enjoyed the fame stuff.

I've been asked to do action-oriented movies in the past and they just haven't been right for me.

I do like a variety of things so I'm always interested in finding something that I haven't done before, if possible, to whatever degree that sometimes changes, and how much is something now that I wouldn't have a year ago but sort of based on what I've done recently as well.

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.

I think a lot of actors take on fun roles and then they're lazy or flippant with them. I just can't do that.

I feel I do my best work when it's all there on the page, and I feel that the character is very vivid as I read the script and I'm not having to create stuff and trying to cobble together something. If I have to do that, then I don't entirely trust what I'm doing.
