I mean, I must confess I don't own Harry Potter DVDs. My parents do. They have them all. And they like watching them.

I'm very self-conscious as an actor, with performances and things, and I don't like watching my own stuff.

Obviously, when you're in theater, you have to be in character. You have to prepare for the unexpected. You have to be able to react to things that don't necessarily happen every night, or aren't supposed to happen every night. And you have to react to it in character. In six months, 192 shows, those things did happen. And the experience of that, the ability to stay in character, I feel like I've learned a great deal.

I was a short, chubby kid, pretty shy.

Twitter is the limit of me putting myself out there.

I wasn't bullied or anything at school, but I was quite shy and didn't speak up too much in class.

Alan Rickman told me to do a play, so I did. Because when Alan Rickman tells you do something, you go and do it.
