I think Stieg Larsson was pretty brave. He wanted to bring up things that we don't like to talk about, or like to ignore.

I always push myself, even when I did a film where it was pretty much me the whole film.

I want to explore humanity and human kind. I think that what's common for all of the things that I've done and all the things that I want to do is that they are all connected to some deeper things in our souls.

With most movies I've done before, I've done a lot of preparation. I've known about them long before [shooting], and I've prepped and changed my body and done research, and all the things you could imagine.

It's better to not be afraid of things and not avoid things.

I think that I'm very passionate, and I know that if I decide to do a film, my character is going to take over my life.

Weirdly enough, I don't like to pretend. I try to use things in me, and translate them into the situation and the characters, so it always needs to run through my own veins.
