Oh sure, now you like him [after the audience applaud David Oyelowo].

I’m a nerdy, geeky fan of Labyrinth and Dark Crystal.

Tonight we celebrate Hollywood's best and whitest, sorry... brightest.

I remember thinking that the rest of my life would be solo. I wasn’t weepy when I thought that - it was just a realization that I had gone this long being self-sufficient.

I get to choose things that interest me as opposed to trying to get any job that will have me, which for a vast majority of actors is the case.

The hardest part of playing the villain was the prosthetics, because I couldn't really move my face as much as I wanted to, and yet I had to move my face a lot. If I moved my face in certain ways the prosthetics would come apart, so I could do a lot of eyebrow acting, but I couldn't do a lot of nose lifting, or the corners of the nose would pop out.

I think, in life, being nervous about something that's forthcoming is very helpful, whether it's an awards show or a family gathering or a job interview. If you're too calm and confident, then I think you aren't executing to the best of your ability. So I try not to let nerves get the best of me, but I welcome them because it tends to fuel me to try harder.
