I'm always pretty tense about everything when it comes to work.

I've thought about writing, but it hasn't happened yet. It's like schoolwork - you start doing your revisions two nights before you're compelled to turn it in.

I'll tell you what, it doesn't get more beautiful than the west of Ireland. Connemara and County Derry are quite stunning, really.

When you've got a new family, any kind of security you can have is great.

I felt slightly snobby about the genre. My pre-conceived notion of the comic book world had been: "Oh, that's nothing that I need to worry about!"

Some actors go, 'Bing!' and suddenly they're being paid huge sums. Me, I seem to get screwed every time.

I'm very much a jobbing actor who's still trying to find a place to rent down the road.
