I love Sam Mendes. He's a fantastic director.

For some reason I just lack that ability to be embarrassed about going up to people. I even do it for friends if they want to ask someone out.

It was also great shooting in London at Pinewood Studios because of all its history. So many of the 007 movies were filmed there, as well as classics by everyone from Marilyn Monroe to Jack Nicholson to Martin Scorcese. It's like working on hallowed ground. So, I felt a responsibility to make sure I did as good a job as I possibly could.

I'm always interested in telling stories that have a message because I really do believe that film is so powerful.

I don't why I was bullied. I was quite shy and skinny. Very nerdy, very bookwormish. I think I was just a target.

I think there's nothing more amazing than helping people every day.

One of the saddest aspects for me about filming in South Africa was that the real inequalities are still very much in place - and those are economic inequalities.
