Well, I couldn't spell my name until I was eight - my second name. I was so dyslexic. Max I could do. Irons, nope.

I've got my dad's height and smoking habit. But I think I've got my mum's looks and sensibilities.

In fact, when I met Kit Harington first, he was pretty much feeling how I'm feeling today - at a photo shoot and you've had no sleep. He was just a really nice, English, down-to-earth guy. No pretense, nothing.

I know I haven't done it. I've done a couple of films, which were intended to go straight up. Thankfully they didn't. So now, I think that's what I need to do. I just need to grow as an actor.

I like reading, free diving and hiking. But my favorite thing to do is travel anywhere in Greece. I love everything about that place.

People say 'follow in the footsteps' but I always find that a strange expression because what you want to do is forge your own path, so to speak.

Once you become the story off-screen, you are less likely to be the onscreen one.
