I wanted to branch out into American television, specifically because you get to develop a character for a longer period of time and you get to develop a relationship with the audience.

You never want to play too vampiric or generically evil, so you look for emotions or character traits that you can relate to.

It feels good to be awake, knowing others are asleep. Makes you feel like the night is not for everyone, just a chosen few.

I love The Walking Dead. I’m a massive fan of that show.
