I like to play different types roles, but I'd like to do a comedy next.

Computers creating art is an upsetting concept mostly because of what it means about humans.

When you're playing a character, you don't really want to have an opinion about where you're going to end up. Otherwise, you can't really stay in the moment and in your character.

When you're shooting 20-odd episodes in a season, the last thing you want is for each script to be the same tone.

I really wouldn't want to live in America. I found New York claustrophobic and dirty. I missed England when I was there, simple things like smells and the British sense of humor.

I think Danny Boyle's got it in his head that we all still look too young (to do a 'Trainspotting' sequel.) But, I mean, I don't look like anyone I play, anyways, so I don't really know where that comes from. Because, you know, you change yourself for the roles. I'm actually not Scottish, either!

You're trying to bring a character to an audience, and tell stories. That's what we're all trying do.
