I was talking to one of my aunties at Christmas and she said she didn’t think it was ever in my nature to go against the grain, that I was always a good boy. I think she was right - I did always want to be good.

I've done enough for a while and people get fed up of seeing you, but apart from that, although I'm young, I need a bit of rest. You could say I have become a house husband. It's not a new man thing, it's just largely a boring man who doesn't mind staying in the house thing.

Basically, every character I've ever played, I've based entirely on internal conflict. And I love doing that, because I think it's very human.

I play football once or twice a week. I eat pretty healthy. I'm in fairly good shape most of the time.

I always believed that I never wanted to be an actor. I only did it because I was allowed to do it and I had to do something.

'St. Elmo's Fire' is one of my favorite films. I like the storytelling of those teenage American films. You don't get that now. Teenage American movies are all about sick jokes, puking a lot, arse jokes.

The minute you start to strategize too much, the more you start to think you're in control of your own fate. And you're not, really.
