We all have a dark side. Most of us go through life avoiding direct confrontation with that aspect of ourselves, which I call the shadow self. Theres a reason why. It carries a great deal of energy.

I love characters that are very layered and complex. It's more exciting and different than any simple role- plus, I love a good challenge.

A lot of our young people are sleep-walking, dreaming that they're awake, and lots of aspects of society initially go about keeping it so.

It is the ordinariness of us that is the same in all of us.

I am so proud of Amelia Boynton. I can burst with pride.

I've sort of prided myself on playing characters with conscience. The first way I go about creating a character is looking at that area of conscience. What have they done, and what has it cost.
