I'm a huge fan of science fiction and fantasy - not so much horror because I get a bit scared.

We live in a bubble of the fantasy of death, but the reality of it is something that we obviously all face and have to deal with, at some point.

I'm a big fan of vampire movies generally and that sort of tradition of characters.

Hopefully, any character I play has an anchor in reality. The more fantastical characters, or fantastical worlds that they inhabit are really fun and allow you, in some ways, to tell stories and reveal things about our lives that would be harder to take, in a more realistic setting.

I am prone to get carried away thinking about creative projects.

When you come to actually act, it's a game. It may be a very serious game, but it's still a game. If you lose that sense of play, the work suffers.

My own daughter is a big fan of the 'Twilight' stories, the books.
