I'm fascinated in the children within adults.

So many young pets burn out in Hollywood, it's crazy.

I've always been fairly confident in my acting.

There are no real guidelines or maps in Australia as to how to write a show, whereas in Hollywood it's where the TV industry is created and there's a lot of work that goes into development.

I really wanted to work in the American industry because it's the leading industry. It's where film and television started.

I like drama as well. When I played Hamlet, I got one review that said, "This must surely be the funniest Hamlet in history," but schoolgirls would still cry when he died.

Back in Australia, I did foster care for sick cats for years, and I was always most successful with the animals when I was given two - a brother and sister.
