I had done Shrek as a Canadian and I'm very proud to be Canadian, but I knew I could give more to it.

Europe is scooters. Europe is five young people on one bench sharing a chocolate bar. Their idea of entertainment and fun is so much different than ours, which is exactly why a movie about them would be funny.

I have very happy memories of fairy tales. My mother used to take me to the library in Toronto to check out the fairy tales. And she was an actress, so she used to act out for me the different characters in all these fairy tales.

I love making comedy. I never stopped loving it. I will continue to love it and I can't believe that I get to do it.

Dad was in the British Army and my mom was in the Royal Air Force, so both of my parents believed in discipline.

My theory is that all of Scottish cuisine is based on a dare.

Dad loved movies and I grew up with British comedy. My ultimate favourite is Peter Sellers.
