Two billion people watched the royal wedding. Clearly, they're interested in that - the outside of what appears to be lives that have a certain amount of privilege. They have gifts, they have history, they have a sort of unusual and separate position, which maybe involves paying a price.

I come from the theatre, my bones are in the theatre; it’s as natural as breathing to want to be in the theatre

I don't think Hamlet is mad, nor is he predisposed to be a gloomy or tragic figure.

I looked at the 1950 animated film [Cinderella], I read a couple of editions of the fairy tale that I have in my house and all of it seemed to say that there was room for a version that delivered, in this story, which seems to invite a feeling in people and I think that is some version of a classical world.

When I'm acting, I'm in the director's hands. I'm very happy to be. I like to be focused on what I'm doing.

One of the things that makes Hamlet unique among Shakespeare's characters is his courage to face up to the darker elements of his personality.
