I always love costume, and I'm always heavily involved in how things should look. Or how they should feel really, because that's part of the way I suppose I get into character in some ways. It's a lot about costume.

I try not to read the social networks too much. I find that way madness lies.

You know that thing when you break up with someone and you’re walking around the town where you both live and you’re just really hoping to see them? You know that you’re not supposed to see them, but there’s nothing you want more.

There are lots of actors out there who are hugely, hugely talented and haven't got the breaks I've had.

You don't want to seem too eager, too romantic - otherwise, it just looks a bit try-hard. But I do think that a first date should be intimate. So I'd choose a nice dinner somewhere cozy, not too crowded, with good wine.

You find with the really great actors, the ones you really admire and look up to, very often they're very giving, generous, warm people.

Each project changes you a bit.
