I want to be an actor, I am just not very comfortable talking about myself.

I'm so not a performer, my drive to do [acting] is so different to other people - and I'm not discrediting that, they're born performers, they're people that you love to watch just be themselves. I like to be a little bit more in control. I like to make something.

Sometimes your characters in films do things that you wouldn't do. You're not playing yourself all the time.

It is said that I'm distant and cold. I'm just someone who's very shy. I'm not comfortable doing interviews because I have to talk about myself. To talk about yourself, you have to know yourself pretty well and I feel like there are still some shades in me that I don't know about.

I love sitting down and having actual conversations. But I don't do that sound-bite, be-candidly-funny thing.

You watch the interview afterwards, and they didn't really say much, but it's interesting, funny, and engaging. Whereas I sit there and look a little bit too serious, and as soon as that happens then you're uncomfortable and you don't want to watch.

I've actually always been interested in following a character more long term, but the only place to really do that as an actor is on a TV series.
