Age and treachery will always overcome youth and skills.

As an actor, I've always said, half the audience is going to love you, half is going to hate you so just live with it. It's easier that way.

There's a physicality and confidence to Americans; they're very present. That's something I enjoy being around because it rubs off on you.

I know there are some actors who are just brilliant at improvising and brilliant at just being in the moment and doing it there and then. I'm not one of those actors.

I love doing kids' films.

I'm determined not to lose my name. It's who I am. It has neither aided my progress nor hampered it. It's just who I am. My character. My make-up. My culture and heritage is a very rich one. So what if it's difficult for people to pronounce? We all learned how to say Schwarzenegger.

I could do an American accent, if I were immersed in the accent, meaning if I were living back in Los Angeles and rehearsing and auditioning the whole time.
