I always try and learn as much as I can from different departments on a film set.

Even if you're independent, I think you get lonely.

Doing an accent removes you from yourself and reminds you, every instant, that you're playing a part.

There's a whole language to movement and how you embody someone, and how you can use different techniques for different characters. I guess just posture, and the way you walk, and the way you physically are. All of that says a lot about who someone is.

We have so many American and English films in Australia that we hear those accents often, so they're not too hard to pick up, but it's always a challenge.

I hate the feeling when I'm overseas, away from Australia, that I'm trapped, blocked by an ocean from getting to the people I love. That gives me anxiety.

You never choose the way that you're raised, it's just the way that you were raised, but you do get to a certain age where you're in a position to question the expectations of you and the way that you've been formed by your surroundings.
