As an actor and as a performer, I'm very much aware of the fact that my job is to change both physically and emotionally and that was what hurt the most - the fact that people were judging me based on nothing.

If I could play any character from the book though it’d be Church. Who wouldn’t want to be a cat?!

I see myself as a mascot for the kids who get beat down and don't feel like they belong.

I'm nervous when taking part in any movie.

The great thing about literature is that you're making up your own interpretation of the character anyway. Also, you're given basically a bible of who a character is and you're kind of shooting yourself in the foot if you're not reading it.

I live out of a bag. I just looked at what's going on for me, I'm not gonna be back in England for more than a week between now and March of next year, I think, which is crazy. By that time the lease is up on my apartment! I'm getting a kick out of being homeless.

I suppose with any character that you play you always bring your personal experience to it. You always bring people that you know or that you've met and sort of - this is what I do, I mean, I don't know what anyone else does - but people that you know or that you've met that have affected you in certain ways, you bring into it.
