Why does everyone have to pretend to be stupid and not know long words?

You don't want your children to look at you like you are anything special other than their dad.

All I can do is just do what I can do and not be hampered by knowing that some people won't like it.

Every actor is riddled with insecurity, of course. But weirdly, I don't really find that I'd be daunted with taking on roles or anything.

I've been doing interviews for years, and in all that time, I've virtually never read one and gone, 'Yep, factually and tonally that's exactly what happened.' Pretty much never.

I don't think it was a surprise that I ended up as an actor, and it was anything but a disappointment.
