I'm legally unable to ride motorcycles. It's a contract that I have with my life insurance, so whenever I get a chance to do a movie and ride a bike I go for it.

I've been lucky to work with some of the most creative people and it's true that I enjoy filmmaking and I'm an enthusiast.

I don't want a perfect character, I want a character who has, as strange as it sounds, some humanity, some flaws, some needs.

I always wanted to find a way to apply my acting in a big mad monster movie where I was transforming into this scary entity.

Helen Mirren is someone that I have really admired ever since I saw her in Excalibur. That was the first thing I said to her. "I loved you as Morgan Le Fay."

All of my characters have a glint of madness.

I want people to discover my movies, and however they choose to receive it is their business.
