I trained in Shakespeare, and that's all comedy, even when it's tragedy.

I can say I love working with women. Film is a man's world, and I really appreciate the opportunity to collaborate with women, especially young women.

But I loved doing the physical stuff for 'Dredd.' I have to give a shout-out to the stunt team that I worked with.

Acting is something that I always wanted, but I never paid attention to the notion that it might actually work out. You have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do - at one stage, I wanted to be a jockey - but this is the one that's a big deal.

There's so much with my character in Dredd that I identify with. She's my favorite character I think I've ever played. She's the most dynamic and fascinating woman that I could even imagine playing, so I love her. What I love about her is that her sensitivity is her greatest strength.

I feel naked without jewelry. If I'm having a bad hair day, I pick something from my huge collection of hats.

I didn't have an incredibly active social life as a teenager. I always wished it was a little bit more exciting than it was.
